Beat ’em up revival ‘River City Girls’ arrives September 5th

[ad_1] It’s handled in a suitably retro style, although it’s thankfully not hewing too closely to the blocky NES original apart from “guest appearances” by River City veterans. You can also expect anime- and manga-style cutscenes and a soundtrack from indies like Chipzel and NateWantsToBattle. The $30 beat ’em up arrives September 5th on PC […]

Silksong’ is a faster, more elegant sequel

[ad_1] While its creators recently told fans they wanted it to match “the quality and scale of Hollow Knight” before announcing a release date, this week, I got to spend over 20 minutes playing through two different areas of the game, and it feels like it must be pretty close. Please? In the sequel, you […]

Tariffs are forcing Big Tech to move production out of China

[ad_1] Last month, the US increased import tariffs on certain Chinese goods from 10 percent to 25 percent.

At that rate, Nintendo might be forced to sell its consoles at a loss […]

‘Super Mario Maker 2’ will offer online multiplayer with friends

[ad_1] For all the improvements to online features in Super Mario Maker 2, multiplayer is oddly limited — you can play with random people on the internet, but not your friends. That won’t be true forever, thankfully. Producer Takashi Tezuka has confirmed that online multiplayer with friends will come to the level-building game through an […]

Gooigi is the best part of ‘Luigi’s Mansion 3’

[ad_1] First, Gooigi. The third instalment of the spooky franchise introduces a green, gooey and seemingly invulnerable version of Luigi. He’s triggered with the right analog stick and has, for the most part, the same move set as his flesh-and-bone counterpart. So why bother switching? Well, he can access important items that are placed just […]

'Alien: Isolation' will terrify Switch users later this year

[ad_1] Xenomorphs will soon hunt you down on the road. Creative Assembly and Sega are bringing the survival horror of Alien: Isolation to the Switch sometime later in 2019. There are precious few details of what will change, but the portability is an obvi… [ad_2] Source link

The next Legend of Zelda is in development

[ad_1] Nintendo closed out this year’s Nintendo Direct as E3 with quite the surprise sneak peek: an early look at the next Legend of Zelda game. While plot details and game play are of course, under wraps, the video showed Link and Zelda exploring a cave and coming upon a desiccated corpse which promptly glows […]

The last ‘Splatoon 2’ Splatfest takes place July 18th

[ad_1] Series creator Hishashi Nogami has announced that a version 5.0 update is coming after the Final Fest to enable private Splatfests. While they clearly won’t be as large as the public events, it could foster mini tournaments and otherwise give late-to-the-game players an idea of what they missed. There’s a lingering question: what comes […]

Nintendo fans take another look at the Switch

[ad_1] One of the things that Devindra and readers agree on is how fun the Switch’s portability makes it: IAmQuinn said “one of my favorite things about the Switch is how easy it is to bring with you and play on any screen. I often bring it to other places to play with people.” Likewise, […]
