Smash Bros. Ultimate adding Evil Ryu spirit in new Street Fighter event
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
It turns out that Super Smash Bros. Ultimate hasn’t abandoned new events entirely, as Nintendo has just announced that the game will be celebrating the 35th anniversary of Street Fighter. Fans will have an opportunity to pick up a new spirit featuring Evil Ryu. Other prior Street Fighter spirits will also be appearing.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate largely ended its support following the release of Sora as its final DLC character in October. A month later, Nintendo announced that new in-game events were coming to an end. Previous events have been recycled on a weekly basis, so today’s news about the Street Fighter celebration and Evil Ryu spirit in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate comes as a surprise. It’s unclear whether this is a one-time thing or if we could continue to see new spirits from time to time.

The best 2.5D games from Nintendo: Metroid Dread and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Posted on 3 years ago by Luiz in Features, Switch, Videos | 0 comments
In recent years, Nintendo developed a number of games under the 2.5D concept. These are titles that are completely modeled in 3D, but the gameplay functions primarily in two dimensions. That’s not the only definition of the term, though let’s stick to that.
The 2.5D style is a great way to bring back a lot of classic games from Nintendo’s huge catalog of hits. Personally speaking, there are two games in specific that I consider the best 2.5D creations from Nintendo: Metroid Dread and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Both are amazing in a lot of aspects, and in today’s video, I discuss how well they explore the many possibilities provided by 2.5D. You can check out the video down below.

More than two years after it was initially announced for the west, Radirgy Swag has finally dropped on the North American Switch eShop.
RS34 originally brought Radirgy Swag to the system in June 2019. Dispatch Games then confirmed during the same month that it would handle the overseas launch during the fall. Unfortunately, there was absolutely no news about the release – until today. Without any advance notice, it was just made available on the eShop.
