Nintendo reveals Sushi Striker’s drastically different origins and original concepts
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Switch | 0 comments
Just prior to the launch of Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido, Japanese magazine Famitsu spoke with a couple of the game’s developers. Producer Hitoshi Yamagami and director Kaori Ando were both brought in for the discussion. Yamagami previously worked on the likes of Dr. Mario, Panel de Pon (referenced in the interview), and Fire Emblem while Ando has been involved with Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE (also brought up in the interview).
The talk was very interesting, as we’re able to learn how Nintendo came up with the concept for Sushi Striker and how the project turned out the way it did in the end. The original plan was for something quite different, and various genres were considered.
[Let’s Talk] Pikachu or Eevee?
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk, Switch | 0 comments
With every major Pokemon game, there is usually a decision involved. Nintendo often publishes two versions which fans often choose between. That doesn’t go for everyone as some folks will pick up both, but players generally settle for one version.
Pokemon: Let’s Go is this year’s entry, and it’s significant since it’ll be appearing on Switch. But which version will you be going for: Pikachu or Eevee? Perhaps you’re in that small group interested in both versions? Or maybe you’re buying neither! Let us know in the comments below.

The Octopath Traveler collector’s edition, known as the Traveler’s Compendium Edition in PAL regions, is something special. The map, coin and art are nice and all but be careful because the surprise waiting on the other side of the box might pop up and surprise you.

Octopath Traveler is not Final Fantasy VI and that’s fantastic
Posted on 6 years ago by Eric Zauch in Features, Switch, Videos | 0 comments
Hello everyone! Octopath Traveler recently delivered a fantastic demo. I put more than eight hours into it but I can’t help but wonder: is it behind the eight ball when compared to Final Fantasy VI? Well in some ways, yes, but that might just be what makes this a great game.

[Review] Mushroom Wars 2
Posted on 6 years ago by Vincent Ward in News | 0 comments
System: Switch (eShop)
Release date: July 5
Developer: Zillon Whales
Publisher: Zillon Whales
As someone who is mostly a console gamer, I’ve never dipped my toes into the real-time strategy genre too much. The closest thing I have to a true RTS experience has been my experience with the Pikmin titles which, to no one’s surprise, isn’t exactly the deepest strategy game on the market. Mushroom Wars 2, being originally developed for the mobile and PC markets, finally hops onto the console world through the Switch. Does it do enough to sprout a following or is the game just simply not that fun, guy?

What Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition does better than what came before, from a really big fanatic
Posted on 6 years ago by Vincent Ward in Features, Switch | 0 comments
I originally reviewed Hyrule Warriors on Wii U as well as the 3DS version on Nintendo Everything previously, so you can deduce that yes, I did dip into both previous versions of this game already. Except I didn’t stop there. I didn’t just put in a good 10-15 hours, as embarrassing as it is to admit – that’s not even close.
