    SNES JRPG Terranigma To Be Released In The US For The First Time

    Finally! I imported this game on my SNES back in 1998 because I could not wait for an official release, and now in 2026 it is actually happening. I still remember the ending, it hit me hard as a teenager. The story about rebuilding the world stayed in my head for years. I am glad younger players...

    Hasbro's Zelda Figures Revealed

    Six inch scale with a fabric cape sounds like it is aiming for that premium collector shelf instead of just a kids toy line, which honestly makes me trust the price tag more. The interchangeable hands across all three figures is a small detail but shows real thought went into the sculpting...

    Nintendo And Hasbro Enter Multi-Year Partnership To Make Zelda Toys

    Honestly, Zelda has been around for so long that I'm surprised this partnership didn't happen years ago. Nintendo has plenty of popular characters, but Zelda always felt like it could have a much bigger toy line. There are so many enemies, weapons, and costumes they could turn into collectibles...

    Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition On Switch 2 Goes Physical

    I laughed at the part mentioning Lara getting impaled because that scene is still one of the most memorable moments from the reboot. The game definitely wanted players to feel how dangerous everything was. Some people thought it went too far with all the injuries, but I think it helped show how...

    Brazilian Ratings Board Seemingly Leaks Name Of Unannounced Metroid Game

    The title "Metroid Ravenous" sounds pretty cool. It gives me the feeling that the enemies or even the planet itself could be more dangerous than usual. I don't even care if it's 2D or 3D as long as exploring feels rewarding. Metroid has always been about finding hidden paths and slowly getting...

    Nintendo Removes Leaked Description Of Ocarina Of Time Remake

    "Updated designs" and "timeless gameplay" sounds like the safest wording Nintendo could possibly use. It tells me they are being very careful because they know Ocarina of Time is one of those games fans have very strong feelings about. I would not be surprised if this ends up being very faithful...

    Starting With Yoshi In May, Nintendo's Physical Games Could Carry A Higher Price Tag

    Nintendo making digital ten dollars cheaper than physical starting with Yoshi. Finally listening to players who wanted this for years. Physical collectors might complain but it makes sense. No manufacturing cost for digital. I will save the ten bucks and buy digital. The new Yoshi adventure...

    Godzilla Roleplaying Game Launches Kickstarter

    This is awesome news! Godzilla RPG with Warhammer guys designing it? Count me in. I played a lot of their games and they always make combat feel huge and important. Cards instead of dice is genius for tension because you see what’s coming but still get surprises. I can already imagine my group...

    Nintendo Celebrates Mario Day In An Unorthodox Way

    Virtual Boy for Mario Day 2026? Nintendo trolling us hard. Everyone expected new game announcements or at least some cool Mario movie stuff, but no, let’s dust off the red headache machine. Mario’s Tennis looks okay if you ignore how blurry everything gets, and Mario Clash is just Mario Bros but...

    Nintendo Reports Encouraging Numbers For Switch, Switch 2

    Switch 2 is doing great honestly. Outpacing the first one every month, 15 million quick, now 17 million with months left? They’ll hit over 19 million easy. Original Switch at 155 million now, second best console ever, PS2 is close. Digital up to 58% because physical third-party is garbage with...

    Nintendo Switch Online Adds Gamecube Fire Emblem

    Path of Radiance is not just another old Gamecube game. It is one of the reasons Fire Emblem became popular outside Japan. Ike is simple but strong as a character, and the story takes its time to build the conflict instead of rushing it. I played this on real hardware years ago and it was...

    Winsley’s Guardian Is Back — For The N64?

    It amazes me that people are still developing for the N64 in 2025. That console is older than some gamers today. What’s even cooler is that this isn’t just another nostalgia cash grab. Winsley’s Guardian seems to have real emotional storytelling. I respect that it comes from the developer’s...

    Netflix Wants To Make Catan Shows Or Something

    I actually like the idea of a Catan show, but only if it has some depth. The game has potential themes like cooperation, conflict, and scarcity. Those could translate well into a character-driven drama. But if Netflix just makes a silly reality competition out of it, then it will probably fail...

    Can Board Games Run Doom? We’ll Find Out

    This feels like both a joke and a genuine project at the same time. It’s funny that the “Can it run Doom?” meme led to an actual board game. But I think if the developers embrace that humor while keeping the gameplay deep, it could end up being surprisingly good.

    ION Heart Review: A Story-Driven Solo Mech TTRPG Adventure

    Guys, I like that this game treats the mech as more than a machine. The mech becomes a character to interact with and grow alongside. When I read about the “mech circus” scenario, it made me smile. That is the kind of world-building I want in games. I write journals in real life, so I see the...
