These are the strongest final bosses in Kirby history
Posted on 2 months ago by Ethan in 3DS, Features, General Nintendo, Switch | 0 comments
While we wait for the next entry in the Kirby series (and therefore the next galactic crisis Kirby has to stop), we figure it’s as good a time as any to rank the strongest final bosses that are most canonically powerful. Out of all of Nintendo’s big franchises, Kirby might be the one most famous for its dramatic final boss battles. The scale and scope of these clashes have only increased over the years, and it’s certainly reached a peak with 2022’s Kirby and the Forgotten Land. As new games in the series are released, more lore and story tidbits come out to help us better understand the incredibly dangerous world Kirby happens to live in.

Virtual Console was originally planned for Nintendo Switch
Posted on 2 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Up until the release of Switch, Virtual Console was a big thing for Nintendo starting with Wii. Players could purchase and download a variety of classic titles from past hardware. However, with Nintendo Switch and the introduction of Nintendo Switch Online, things took a turn. Buying individual games is no longer possible, and instead those that have an active membership can access classics via different apps.
Virtual Console doesn’t exist on Switch, but new evidence has come to light indicating that Nintendo was exploring the idea at one point. LuigiBlood sifted through a new leak of iQue emails and shared findings today. Nintendo and iQue previously teamed up on different projects.

Imran Khan, a former senior editor from Game Informer who previously leaked Everybody 1-2 Switch, shared that unconfirmed report this week.

Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition details Quick Recast, Hraesvelg, Neil Nail, more
Posted on 2 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo has shared more details on Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition details – specifically Quick Recast, Hraesvelg, and Neil Nail (official English name TBA). These are new elements that were not included in the Wii U original.
As for Quick Recast, this reduces the cooldown timer for Arts and can be performed with the Y button. If you’ve seen the new trailer and footage from this week, you may have noticed a green gauge used during battle. If you use Quick Recast, you’ll use up some of that gauge. As of now it seems it can be refilled with auto attacks.
