The best 2.5D games from Nintendo: Metroid Dread and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze
Posted on 3 years ago by Luiz in Features, Switch, Videos | 0 comments
In recent years, Nintendo developed a number of games under the 2.5D concept. These are titles that are completely modeled in 3D, but the gameplay functions primarily in two dimensions. That’s not the only definition of the term, though let’s stick to that.
The 2.5D style is a great way to bring back a lot of classic games from Nintendo’s huge catalog of hits. Personally speaking, there are two games in specific that I consider the best 2.5D creations from Nintendo: Metroid Dread and Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. Both are amazing in a lot of aspects, and in today’s video, I discuss how well they explore the many possibilities provided by 2.5D. You can check out the video down below.
[Let’s Talk] Hopes for Pokemon Legends: Arceus
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk, Switch | 0 comments
It’s a bit unprecedented to see major Pokemon games release so quickly after each other, but that’s exactly where we are now. Even though Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Shining Pearl launched less than two months ago, we’ll be getting Pokemon Legends: Arceus at the end of January.
Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl were remakes of DS games. On the other hand, Arceus is a brand new experience from the main Pokemon developer at Game Freak. Many have compared it to a Zelda: Breath of the Wild-like take on Pokemon, though we know it won’t be open world. Still, the game has shown promise and many fans are interested in seeing how the whole thing turns out.
With the launch of Pokemon Legends: Arceus only a few weeks away, we want to know how you’re feeling about the game thus far. What are your hopes and expectations? Will you be picking it up later this month? Let us know in the comments below.
