Hindsight review

System: Switch
Release Date: August 4, 2022
Developer: Team Hindsight
Publisher: Annapurna Interactive


A few months back, Nintendo Everything was invited to a personal discussion and presentation regarding Hindsight with developers Joel McDonald and Emma Kidwell, courtesy of Annapurna, which gave us a closer look at their new outing in wanting to provide a palpable and intimate story of life, its values, and the things we hold dear (and why). It was an insightful showcase that opened our eyes, and the eagerness to experience more of the protagonist Mary’s timeline of events only grew with each passing thought. Now after a three-hour playthrough before rolling credits on Hindsight, it’s arguably one of the most authentic, relatable, and well-established narratives on the topic in quite some time.

Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII Reunion name

Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII Reunion creative producer Tetsuya Nomura has explained the game’s name in an interview with Everyeye.

Obviously the title is extremely similar to the original, but now has the added “Reunion” bit. According to Nomura, “Reunion” has important meaning when it comes to Final Fantasy VII’s lore and it’s a way of connecting it with Crisis Core. The term is also being used to help describe what the game is given how it’s not clearly a remake or a remaster – it’s more of a middle ground. 

In an email sent to customers in Japan, Nintendo shared a message from Monolith Soft’s Tetsuya Takahashi, the senior director of Xenoblade Chronicles 3.

We’ve translated the full note below, which includes another tease about plans for the future. There’s just a slight story spoiler about the overall series, so keep that in mind before proceeding.

A new month started up a few days ago. Now that we’re in August, we want to know what you’ve been playing.

[Review] Live A Live

Live A Live review

System: Switch
Release Date: July 22, 2022
Developer: Square Enix / Historia
Publisher: Square Enix


Back in the days of the SNES, it wasn’t uncommon for games to never see a western release, remaining land-locked to their native Japan. This was relatively common in the case of JRPGs, an arguably oversaturated genre at the time that remained relatively niche in the west. Even new installments of big flagship franchises like Square Enix’s (then Squaresoft) Final Fantasy series didn’t always make it overseas. It’s no surprise then that some of Square’s less well-known JRPGs ended up falling through the cracks, one of these being Live A Live. Live A Live was originally released in 1994 and had even been initially planned as a worldwide release before underwhelming sales prospects in Japan caused those localization plans to be scrapped. But with the game now receiving an unexpected remake, it’s gotten a new lease on life and a long overdue international release, letting everyone experience this presumed classic. That being said, how well does the game truly hold up today? And were the improvements made to this remake enough to bring it up to a more modern standard?

Smile Fest 2022 is currently taking place in Tokyo, and it’s brought along some major news about future figures – including a couple for Xenoblade Chronicles 3’s Mio.

The event has provided arguably the most amount of reveals and updates we’ve seen at one of these expos. In the case of Mio, she’s getting not one, but two different figures. Other announcements include a King Dedede Nendoroid, our first look at the upcoming Metroid Dread figure for Samus, and more.

The previously-announced Hugh Neutron DLC is now available for Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl, publisher GameMill as well as developers Ludosity and Fair Play Labs have announced.

Hugh Neutron is voiced by Mark DeCarlo. He brings along an all-new stage and bonus alternate costume, pictured above.
