Genki Shadowcast 2 review
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Reviews, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Today, we’re taking a look at the Genki Shadowcast 2, which is one of the more inexpensive capture cards on the market right now.
Streaming video games is an expensive hobby – or career! As someone who’s very experienced in not being a streamer, the Genki Shadowcast 2 is very appealing. As you can imagine, it’s an improved version of the Genki Shadowcast, a budget capture card that was first released a few years ago. It normally goes for around $50 USD, which is already much cheaper than other options – but it goes on sale for $30 every so often, which makes it a particularly enticing pickup. The Genki Shadowcast 2 hooks up to your gaming console’s HDMI port and essentially beams over the footage to your computer right away. Other capture cards have a delay, which often necessitates a dual-monitor setup so that you can play on one monitor and use your computer on the other. The Genki Shadowcast 2 aims to fix this with near-instant passthrough.
Kirby Star-Crossed World’s new lore explained
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Features, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
The Kirby series is well-known for being easy to pick up and play, but it’s also well-known for having tons of “implied lore” that actually gets pretty deep when you dive in and look for story tidbits. The new Star-Crossed World DLC is no exception – even though it’s only a few hours long, it contains many new lore additions that tack on to everything that the base game already introduced back in 2022. Today, we’re covering all of the new story details Star-Crossed World adds to the franchise – so come back later if you haven’t finished the main story just yet.

It has been announced by Marvelous that Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma will be receiving a free content update in collaboration with Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar. As of now there is no information about this update, other than it will be available in the near future.
Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma is a spin off of the Rune Factory series, seeking to emphasize its action RPG elements rather than the farming ones the franchise is known for. Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar is a faithful remake of 2008’s Harvest Moon DS: Grand Bazaar, while smoothing out some of the rougher edges from the DS era.

Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii has commented on why Square Enix is coming out with Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined before remakes of Dragon Quest 4, 5, and 6.
Last week’s Dragon Quest 7 remake announcement came as a surprise. For one thing, we’re not too far away from the Dragon Quest 1 & 2 HD-2D Remake. After that, one would think that Square Enix would move on to Dragon Quest 4 – but that isn’t the case.
