Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Cowabunga Collection boxart pre-orders

Retailer listings for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection have started to go live with pre-orders following the game’s announcement earlier in the month, and we now have a look at the official boxart. Take a look at the packaging image above.

Fans will be getting a ton of different games here. As a reminder, the full lineup includes:

Gotta Protectors: Cart of Darkness

Gotta Protectors: Cart of Darkness, otherwise known as Susume!! Mamotte Knight: Hime no Totsugeki Serenade, released on Switch in Japan back in 2019 though fans in the west have been waiting for the English version. It’s taken a few years, but there’s finally news to report.

8-4 is handling the English location of Gotta Protectors: Cart of Darkness. Additionally, Limited Run Games has confirmed plans for a physical release. There’ll even be a collector’s edition with a special box, soundtrack, art interview book, trading cards, and 8-bit sprite pins.

LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is the newest installment in the long-running LEGO series. Recently as part of a press preview, I had the opportunity to watch more than 40 minutes of gameplay for the title ahead of its launch and I came away quite impressed.

The game appears to be a departure from the classic LEGO formula. New layers of complexity are added to the gameplay, making the whole experience feel more engaging and truly different from past games in the series. You can check out my full impressions and the gameplay footage in the video down below.

triangle strategy review

System: Switch
Release date: March 4, 2022
Developer: Square Enix / Artdink
Publisher: Square Enix


Square Enix’s Team Asano has been a force to be reckoned with on Switch. Their debut on the system, Octopath Traveler, was a showpiece at the first real Switch blowout in January 2017 and released the following year to great acclaim. Returning to the glory of their 3DS days, the highly requested Bravely Default 2 came out just last year. Now the third entry in the team’s Switch JRPG trifecta returns to Octopath’s HD-2D style, but delivers gameplay so different that it might as well be considered a different genre. That certainly doesn’t hold it back however: different as it is, Triangle Strategy is a tremendous overall package and possibly Team Asano’s finest work yet.

metroid dread uk sales update

There’s a bit of news to report regarding Metroid Dread’s sales performance in the UK. This is based on data provided by GfK.

The Switch title has already overtaken past entries in the series to become the best-selling 2D entry. Additionally, it’s the third biggest Metroid game overall – it’s only behind Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 3. Since digital sales aren’t included, it’s expected that Metroid Dread will soon be the top Metroid game in the UK as a whole if it isn’t already.
