    Brazilian Ratings Board Seemingly Leaks Name Of Unannounced Metroid Game

    I think people are forgetting that ratings board leaks happen pretty often. Some end up being real, while others disappear without any explanation. I'm interested, but I'm treating this as a rumor until Nintendo confirms it. That said, Nintendo's habit of revealing games only a few months before...

    There's A Lethal Wedding Coming To Sega Genesis

    The moment I read "mother-in-law with guns" I was interested. Most games would just make the bride the hero, but adding Shelly as a playable character makes it a lot funnier. Two-player co-op sounds like where this game will really shine. My brother and I still play old Genesis games sometimes...

    Medabots, Mario & Sonic Cartoons Added To Retrocrush

    I used to rush home from school just to watch Medabots on TV. The battles with those toy robots were so cool to me back then. I actually think it had a much better story and more funny moments than Pokemon did. It is great that it is finally on a free streaming service because it has been so...

    Seems Like Now's The Time To Get A Switch 2

    I was already thinking about getting a Switch 2 later this year, but this price increase kind of pushed me to stop waiting. Going from $449 to $499 is not a small jump, especially when games are already expensive. The new bundle actually sounds decent though. I would probably pick Pokémon...

    James Cameron Would Like To Make A 3D Conversion Of Aliens

    I like Aliens a lot, but I honestly do not care about 3D anymore. Back in the early 2010s it felt exciting because theaters pushed it hard, but now most people I know avoid it because the glasses are annoying and tickets cost more. Even when the effects look decent, I still feel like the screen...

    The Super Mario Galaxy Movie's Weird Twist About Peach Could Be Canon

    I actually like the idea that Peach and Rosalina are sisters. It makes the world feel more connected instead of random. Before this, Peach being human in a place full of mushroom people always felt strange to me. Now it has a reason, even if it came from a movie first. I know some fans don’t...

    Stellarator Is A Game And Graphic Novel In One

    This kind of project feels refreshing compared to standard releases. A game tied directly to a graphic novel gives more room for storytelling, especially on something like NES where space is limited. The setup with a scientist stuck in a bar meeting strange aliens sounds simple but effective. It...

    The Cinematic Influence of Video Games: Which Films Got It Right?

    For me, “Sonic the Hedgehog” worked better than I expected. It did not try to be too complex. It just focused on Sonic as a character and gave him a simple story. That helped a lot. “Detective Pikachu” had more detail, but sometimes I felt it was trying too hard to please fans. I think the key...

    Tales From The Crypt Finally Comes To Streaming This May

    Been saying for years that Tales From The Crypt needs to be on streaming. Finally it’s happening on Shudder. The lineup of actors back then was insane. You had everyone from Joe Pesci to Ewan McGregor. The stories were short but they stuck with you. I’m happy they got the original Cryptkeeper...

    TOMAK, A Game Where You Raise Someone's Head In A Flowerpot, Is Free This Week Only

    I can’t stop thinking about how odd this game is. The concept is ridiculous at first glance, but there’s also something surprisingly sweet about caring for a goddess and watching her grow. It’s not just random silliness; it seems like the game genuinely wants you to connect with the character...

    Don't Panic Over The Super Mario Super Show Upscales -- The Show Always Looked This Bad

    People need to calm down. The original Super Mario Super Show was never high quality animation. It was made fast for TV and that’s why it looks the way it does. The AI upscale just highlights the problems that were already there. If they want it to look better someone has to go in and fix the...

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

    Ten dollars more for the cartridge version? That's a lot. I understand costs but gamers are already paying high prices. Hope Amazon or other stores keep both versions around the same. Digital is fine but some of us like to own the game for real. Yoshi and the Mysterious Book looks charming though.

    Nintendo Celebrates Mario Day In An Unorthodox Way

    What even is this? Mario Day and they give us two Virtual Boy games that almost nobody played and one GBA title we just got remade. Feels like Nintendo ran out of ideas and went “eh, throw the old stuff at them.” Mario’s Tennis is boring even for 1995 standards, just ping pong with power-ups...

    This Zelda Guardian Stalker Brick Build Required a Bar Clamp to Finish

    Finally someone shows the truth about these third-party brick kits. They advertise “compatible with big brands” but half the time the clutch power is garbage. Eileen had to clamp pieces? That’s next level dedication. Most people would quit after ten minutes. The six legs came out looking scary...

    8-Bit Sci-fi Metroidvania Aethos Now On Kickstarter

    This looks exactly like the kind of Metroidvania I’ve been waiting for on actual NES hardware. The time-limited powers thing adds real tension instead of just collecting stuff forever. Kyra’s story feels classic but fresh with the robot survivor angle. Already pledged the $40 cart tier because I...
