Posted on 2 weeks ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch 2 | 0 comments
In a report from Yomiuri, the outlet reveals that Nintendo Switch 2 beaten PS2 for sales record in Japan. This is based on sales data provided by Famitsu.
Nintendo Switch 2 appears to have sold at least 1.5 million units in Japan during its first month. However, Famitsu doesn’t track data for units sold by Nintendo, so that number would be quite a bit higher. Famitsu tracks sales from over 3,000 stores in Japan.
Donkey Kong Bananza review for Nintendo Switch 2
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Reviews, Switch 2 | 0 comments
System: Switch 2
Release date: July 17, 2025
Developer: Nintendo
Publisher: Nintendo
These days, Nintendo doesn’t often release new 3D platformers – but when they do, you know it’s going to be something special. On Switch, Nintendo published Super Mario Odyssey and Kirby and the Forgotten Land as the console’s flagship titles in that category. They were both met with critical acclaim, and now it’s Donkey Kong’s turn to give 3D platforming a go. It’s been a long time since we’ve seen DK in the spotlight like this – his last 3D adventure was Donkey Kong 64, which released over 25 years ago. After playing Donkey Kong Bananza, I wonder how we’ve survived so long without a 3D Donkey Kong. Donkey Kong Bananza is a brilliant masterwork of creativity, freedom, and whimsy – and it’s an absolute must-play for anyone even remotely interested in the genre.

Here’s what we could see from a July 2025 Nintendo Direct
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Features, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Today, we’re going over some potential announcements we could see in a July 2025 Nintendo Direct.
You know the drill by now – it’s that time of the year again. To some extent, Nintendo Direct rumors are always swirling about in one form or another. If we reported on every single “there’s a Direct this week” rumor that comes up, we’d probably be posting multiple times per month. In fact, generally speaking, the only time we report on Nintendo Direct rumors is when NateTheHate (who correctly predicted the Switch 2’s reveal date) mentions that one is coming soon.
If you haven’t heard already, there’s supposedly a Nintendo Direct in development for later this month. The most likely days for this presentation would be July 23, July 24, July 30, or July 31 – but at the time of writing, we don’t know which one it is yet or if the Direct is happening at all. Either way, we’re due for one soon.
