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.

Inti Creates has addressed the possibility of Blaster Master Zero 4 happening in the future.
A little while back, Dengeki Online had the opportunity to interview Satoru Nishizawa, who has been the series’ producer since the first entry in the series. He wouldn’t commit to anything, but wouldn’t rule out Blaster Master Zero 4 happening at some point in the future.
Below is Nintendo Everything’s translation of Nishizawa’s comments:
