Go record that last-second win Nintendo and select third parties came out of the gate swinging with the Switch, as it’s not even a year old and there’s a ton of different experiences for it. One such oddball includesMario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle, a clever take on the turn-based grid strategy formula (commonly referred to as an SRPG). Since its launch in August it’s hosted all sorts of DLC, both paid and free, including a recent versus mode and video sharing....

You can meet Nep in VR! Idea Factory have now launchedMegadimension Neptunia VIIRon PS4. An enhanced port of 2016’sNeptunia VII, this re-release boasts a whole new engine, alongside a slew of new features. The biggest addition, of course, is PSVR implementation. This allows players to enter Gameindustri like never before and can hang out with Nep, Vert, Noire and friends in the all-new Player’s Room, an immersive, customisable VR hub. It should be noted that VR is only an option....

CaptainSparklez, Stampy Cat, and other people I’ve never heard of After themost recent episode ofMinecraft: Story Mode, I’m looking forward to the new direction for the series. Simple, one-off episodes seem to fit better than an overwrought multi-episode arc. The sixth episode releases next week beginning on June 7, and it has an almostScooby Doofeel to it, taking place in a mansion where there’s a murder mystery going on. Perhaps less exciting for me but more exciting for ultra-hardcoreMinecraftfans is the inclusion of several notableMinecraftYouTubers and streamers as cast members in the episode....

Ride or die In a lot of ways,Monster Hunter Storiesdoesn’t necessarily feel likeMonster Hunter. It shouldn’t; it’s different. TheMonster Hunterseries that has grown an immense following basks in constant action and team-oriented gameplay.Storieseschews all that for a more traditional role-playing game experience, yet it’s not hard to imagine it fitting right alongside its brethren with regard to popularity. Storiesis a turn-based RPG with an emphasis on riding monsters rather than hunting them....

No Waluigi? One of the absolute best parts of the originalSuper Mario Makerwas going through your amiibo collection and seeingwhich new characters you unlock. Sure you could earn them normally through gameplay, but I loved the idea of slapping my Waluigi figure against the controller and playing as him right away. Much to the chagrin of amiibo owners and to the joy of everyone else,Super Mario Maker 2will lack these features: at least according to a rep’s statement to GameXplain....

Cut and dried, black and white, clear as crystal If you’re looking to buy a 3DS as a gift or just want to upgrade from an older model so you may play SNES games on the go, you may want to wait a few more weeks. Nintendo announced earlier today that they’ll be offering a special edition black or white New 3DS beginning November 25 at a suggested price point of $99....

Device has a screen, Nintendo cuts manufacturing by 10 million units Nintendo’s next console, code named “NX,” was meant to go into mass production in the middle of this year, which, incidentally, we are in. It’s June! Holy shit! But this process has been delayed into “early 2017,” according toDigitimessources. It seems awfully close to the planned March 2017 launch, so we may see some actual, not-manufactured shortages thanks to the delayed…manufacturing....

Smash Smash Bros. Ultimate brings the toys After Nintendo’s big Direct we moved on to my favorite part of E3 (kind of not joking) — amiibo reveals. During the post-stream Sakurai and company played someSmash Ultimate, then took a quick break to introduce theRidleyamiibo, which looks smooth as hell. There’s also an inkling on the pedestal as well as two blank spaces — one of which is reserved for Daisy (who also has aMarioline figure), the newly announced alternate form of Peach....

It’ll drop on December 9th Race the Sunhas hadquite the interesting launch. After releasing straight from the developer’s website, the game’s creators ran into a major snag — they weren’t on Steam. Despite the fact that sales numbers weren’t quite up to expectations, the devs constantly listened to feedback to improve the quality of the game in the meantime, and evenorganized a “Not on Steam Sale”to help support other indie devs in the same position....

Homeisn’t even properly out of the door yet and Sony has taken its inaugural step on the road to market whoredom. Energy drink Red Bullis the first productconfirmed to be hawking its wares on Sony’s globaladvertisingsocial network, providing something to keep you awake during the long wait for Sony to do something useful. Red Bull is said to have its own island in the PS3’s not-quite-a-social-network-not-quite-anything-really, which will sport a racing game based on the drink’s real-life Red Bull Air Race....

It might be telling that the first time I heard of tri-Ace’s newest RPG was when it had its name changed fromEnd of EternitytoResonance of Fatefor the international release. It was strange to me at the time since both names were in English and made about the same amount of sense, but I shrugged it off and went on with my life. With this new uber-trailer out in the wild though, I’m thinking that I might have to pay more attention, because the game looksgoddamn nuts....

‘If the jumper is willing to suffer severe injuries…’ Everybody knows that people who play videogames are impressionable. After playingPac-Man, we invariably binge eat. After a session withCall of Duty, we all joined the military. But science says that maybe we shouldn’t do everything we see in a videogame. It turns out that jumping off buildings and landing in haystacks a laAssassin’s Creedcan be quite dangerous. In an article published in the student-runJournal of Physics Special Topicsfrom the Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Leicester, the authors found that a 1....
