Nintendo says it’s taking various measures to prevent leaks
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Gaming companies have long been affected by information leaks, and Nintendo is no stranger to that. Over the years, various “insiders” have come forward to share news about upcoming games before they’re announced.
We previously heard that some Nintendo leaks came about due to private YouTube videos being accessed by a Google employee. However, it goes beyond that. Pyoro is one such person who was known for leaking contents from Nintendo Directs – though that may now be over after some fans seemed to have uncovered his methods.

[Review] Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble
Posted on 1 year ago by Nicholas Serpa in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: June 25, 2024
Developer: Ryu Ga Gotoku Studios
Publisher: SEGA
Considering it’s been twelve years since the last original Super Monkey Ball game released, I half-expected that Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble might try and and take some big risks, maybe try and swing for the fences with some crazy new single-player modes or some sort of other significant mechanical shakeup. Instead of reinventing the wheel – or indeed, the ball – Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble is more focused on just being a really well-crafted Super Monkey Ball game, one that seems to understand the importance of executing its few core gameplay modes as tightly as possible while cutting out most of the extraneous distractions from other games in the series. With a robust and challenging single-player Adventure Mode, a smattering of simple yet well-designed Battle Mode activities, and robust multiplayer support across the whole package, Banana Rumble is exactly what I had hoped it would be: an a-peel-ing blast from start to finish.
