[ad_1] The pricier subscription level, the Cookie and Depot Plan, costs $7.99 per month for five fortune cookies. Fortune cookies are essentially loot boxes, and opening one rewards the player with a random item such as furniture or clothing. Players can pick cookies which have since left the game, and they will get more space […]

Nintendo is adding subscriptions to ‘Animal Crossing’ on mobile this week
[ad_1] Nintendo didn’t say how much either plan would cost, although Mario Kart Tour‘s plan costs $5 per month. You should hear more about the Pocket Camp offerings in videos appearing on November 20th. The news might not please fans. The mobile Animal Crossing title already has a free-to-play system that can get expensive if […]
Nintendo’s snap-on Switch Lite case arrives in the US on December 8th
[ad_1] If there’s a disappointment, it’s that the case is only available in gray fabric. Your Switch’s bright colors will be hidden until you’re ready to play. It still beats having to endure a scratched screen or a scuffed casing, and the minimalism might be a positive if you don’t room for much more than […]
‘Pokémon Go’ users can add PokéStops and gyms with Niantic Wayfarer
[ad_1] While Niantic Wayfarer is new to Pokémon Go, the company offered a similar feature in its first AR game, Ingress. By adding places like retail spots and local landmarks to Pokémon Go‘s map, players will have more chances to convene, battle and stock up on eggs and Pokéballs. On one hand, it feels like […]
‘Pokémon Sword’ and ‘Shield’ offer an excellent but familiar adventure
[ad_1] The setup for Shield¹ is very familiar. More familiar, even, than Sun and Moon. You play a kid who dreams of becoming a Pokémon champion. You wake up in your sleepy town, talk to your mom, pick a starter, battle your friend/rival and set off on a quest to defeat a set number of […]
8BitDo turns the NES gamepad into a mouse
[ad_1] I actually came across this 8BitDo N30 2.4GHz Wireless Mouse at, of all places, TechCrunch Shenzhen earlier today, where the device made its public debut. This is very much like any regular dual-button mouse, except the scroll wheel is replaced by a stealthy touch strip, and the D-pad on the side lets you toggle […]
‘Luigi’s Mansion 3’ is Mario’s brother at his best
[ad_1] The pirate-themed floor has a cave heavily inspired by The Goonies. Still, the light brain teasers are a welcome break from the combat, which can occasionally feel repetitive. Flash. Suck. Slam. Repeat. Thankfully, higher floors introduce ghost types that require a slightly different strategy. Some ghouls wear sunglasses, for instance, that need to be […]
Nintendo’s ‘Ring Fit Adventure’ hides grown-up workouts in a kids’ game
[ad_1] And you guys, he’s kind of the worst. (Test notes from Mat: “Ring is annoying and can fuck off.”) To be fair, this is a kid’s game — or at least, a game sanitized enough to merit a family-friendly ‘E’ rating. To my ears, Ring sounds like a generic cartoon character from any show […]
Get $24 off the Nintendo Switch on Amazon
[ad_1] If you’ve been waiting to purchase a Nintendo Switch, or want to update your existing unit, Amazon has a decent deal on the console. If you take advantage of an onsite coupon, you can get $24 off the console, making it $275, instead of $299. Note that the discount is applied on checkout, and […]
Nintendo Switch sales top 15 million in North America alone
[ad_1] As Nintendo heads into a holiday season with both the OG Switch and Switch Lite on store shelves, the company is celebrating 10 months in a row of being the best selling console in the US, according to NPD numbers. That’s enough to cross the 15 million sales mark in North America, and just […]
