Shigeru Miyamato's action-adventure brainchild, The Legend of Zelda, is a timeless game meant for all ages. Yet somehow the main character Link can't seem to get top billing for the games he's in. Regardless, they're a bag of fun because they focus a lot on exploration, adventuring, and problem-solving. You're not playing a Zelda game purely fo...
In case you haven't been paying attention to all the post-BlizzCon news the past week or so, Blizzard announced an upcoming Diablo game for mobile phones which caused a lot more harm than good. Gaming fans are mad and feel like it's a betrayal, while game journalists and the media are championing the idea while also belittling their audience. Whic...
If you're a fan of Nintendo's family-friendly imaginary monster cockfighting RPG series, you don't need a reminder that the Nintendo Switch Pokémon Let's Go game will be out this Friday worldwide. However, if you happen to be in Japan, you may want to check out this ongoing Mr. Donut promotion featuring, you guessed it, Pokémon-shaped donuts....
There's going to be a Detective Pikachu movie coming out next year. And truth be told, I'm actually looking forward to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1roy4o4tqQM Ryan Reynolds voicing the only Pikachu who can converse with a human with actual sentences and words? Brilliant. And that realistic fur and Pokémon coming to life; I had to d...
Everybody likes best-seller lists, right? How about we take the way-back machine back to a decade or two and find out what sold well back in the day and what trended really well. I'm curious because US game industry analyst Mat Piscatella tweeted the top 10 best-selling games for the following video game consoles that were all the rage during the ...
We won't lie: Dragalia Lost is quite a charming little F2P action RPG game. You fight mobs with a party of four, you can build your castle and homestead (albeit in very simple fashion), and you can transform into a kick-ass dragon when needed. It sounds almost standard for a mobile action RPG, but it's done well and full of polish. Nintendo and Cy...
This is the last thing a game like Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna~ The Golden Age needs: negative publicity. According to Nintendo Soup, the Southeast Asian versions of the game are missing expansion pass codes. Here's the breakdown of the drama: Southeast Asia distributors Maxsoft was unable to obtain expansion pass codes from Nintendo to offer ...
Yes, you read that title right. The first ever Pokemon Centre outside of Japan is set to operate out of Singapore's Changi Airport March next year.

This just in: Nintendo is going to release a new version of the Nintendo Switch in the second half of 2019. Of course, if you are well aware of Nintendo's many ways of selling you different versions of its current hardware, this may not shock you one bit.

Dragalia Lost is the least innovative title among Nintendo's mobile game offerings, and this is coming from the folks who did Super Mario Run and Fire Emblem Heroes. It’s basically White Cat Project but with a new skin and that Nintendo touch. For those not in tune with the mobile gaming scene, White Cat Project is a 2014 action RPG for iOS...
What else is there to say about Mega Man (or Rock Man if you're from Japan)? He is Capcom's original mascot with the run-and-gun fun and also innovates with the boss weapon-stealing powerup. While the X and Zero games superceded and improved upon the weapon-stealing formula, you can't forget your 8-bit roots. But which Mega Man game is the best? W...
Funny how the world works. A few days after the Bowsette phenomenon took place, Nintendo released its official artbook for its marquee platformer title from last year. And it just dropped a bombshell of a revelation. According to the Super Mario Odyssey artbook that just came into Japan today (which you can get via Amazon), there's an unused co...
As previously reported a few days ago, the Bowsette phenomenon took off thanks to an innocuous tweet from Malaysian artist ayyk92. Given the sensual nature of the new character, Bowsette is no stranger to sites like Pornhub. Speaking Of Which... ...Bowsette searches on the site went from zero to 500,000 within 3 days, according to the site. From 26...
It's a sad day for live Mario Kart fans in Japan and the rest of the world. Nintendo has filed a lawsuit against Mari Mobility Development Co., Ltd for their infringement of the Mario Kart brand for their live street go-kart racing that's all the rage in Tokyo. The reason? Because the MariCar guys are damaging the Mario Kart franchise with the r...
Platform: Nintendo Switch Genre: JRPG, Anime Last year's Xenoblade Chronicles 2 came out on the tail end of 2017 and ended up becoming quite a gem of a JRPG. It's kinda old-school but has a lot of nuances to make the 100+ hour slog bearable, it gets better after the 20-hour mark, its combat system is fun, and its heroes & villains are endearin...
Talk about being hot for Peach. There's a new internet trend where Mario's nemesis Bowser and Mario's love interest Princess Peach combine to form one attractive-looking dragon turtle human hybrid. So what's up with the feature picture on this post and the Peach/Bowser wombo combo craze? Let's go step by step. -New Super Mario Bros U was announce...
Nintendo's brand new online service is out in the wild. We've tried it out for a short bit via our American accounts because you always default to that region when you're on a new Nintendo console. To sum it up, this is Nintendo's version of Xbox Live and PlayStation Plus. Just like those services, it will cost you a monthly/yearly fee: US$4 per m...

Happy belated royal birthday, Yang Dipertuan Agong of Malaysia. To most of us in Malaysia, it's a nice long weekend. But for some of us (sorta) hard at work at Kakuchopurei and definitely, DEFINITELY not distracted by Marvel's Spider-Man on the PS4, it's another opportunity to reminisce about the best kings and queens of video game culture. Because...
Nintendo and Cygames, the folks who made Gran Blue Fantasia and Hearthstone for Weebs Shadowverse, are teaming up to create a new mobile JRPG that's free-to-play. It's called Dragalia Lost, and yes you heard right, it's a completely new IP. This is not a new Mario or Fire Emblem game, or even any existing Nintendo property. It's a brand new world ...
