[Let’s Talk] The Game Awards 2018 reactions
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk | 0 comments
The Game Awards 2018 have come and gone, but not without some big announcements. Nintendo itself had new things to show, as did third-parties.
The biggest announcement of the night may have been the last one. Joker from Persona 5 is Smash Bros. Ultimate’s first true DLC character, which no one really predicted. Nintendo also unveiled the Team Ninja-developed Switch exclusive Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order. Other third-party highlights include Mortal Kombat 11, Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, and Sayonara Wild Hearts.
How do you feel about everything that was shown? What do you think of Joker as Smash Bros. Ultimate’s first DLC character? Were you disappointed by something you thought could be at the show but wasn’t? Let us know in the comments below.

Hello and welcome to the fifth episode of the Nintendo Everything Podcast! This week, the pair kick off with improv that goes into the dark timeline of Princess Toadstool. Then they flip open the Adventure Log, which Eric forgot to write in but Oni has him covered as he dives deep into Dead Cells, World of Final Fantasy, Bloodstained: Curse of the Moon. Lastly, they slide through the news with Skyward Sword on Switch, Nintendo’s creator program, and Oni predicts Koei Tecmo’s next game. Enjoy!
Sorry for those of you emailed in – we ran out of time but we will make sure to plan better next week.
Katamari Damacy Reroll is a good game with bad timing
Posted on 7 years ago by Eric Zauch in Features, News, Videos | 0 comments
I recently rolled up my sleeves and jumped into the rather small Katamari Damacy Reroll demo. Currently, it can only be downloaded on the Japanese eShop; however, it was announced that it will be releasing elsewhere alongside the game on December 7. As unfortunate as the date is, the demo was a lot of fun and convinced me to pick the game up in the future. Here’s what you need to know about this quirky little remaster.

[Let’s Talk] Predicting Nintendo announcements at The Game Awards 2018
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Let's Talk | 0 comments
Nintendo has been present at The Game Awards almost every year. In most cases, the company comes along with multiple announcements. Last year was arguably the biggest with the reveal of Bayonetta 3, the news that Bayonetta 1 + 2 were coming to Switch, and the proper unveiling (and subsequent release) of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s story DLC.
The Game Awards 2018 are less than two weeks away. It’d be very surprising if Nintendo didn’t have at least one announcement for the show, or at least a look at something new. Could we get a better look at Bayonetta 3? A first look at Metroid Prime 4? Share your predictions with us in the comments below.
