Nintendo Direct – 13th February 2019
Check back here for the Nintendo Direct and our live blog, which will feature 35 minutes of Nintendo Switch games!
Metroid Prime 4 development restarted
Today, Shinya Takahashi, Senior Managing Executive Officer of Nintendo, appeared in a video updating fans on the development of Metroid Prime 4. Unfortunately, the development team have been having difficulties bringing the title up to the same standard as the previous games.
Nintendo have made the difficult decision to completely restart development of the anticipated sequel from the ground up. This time development will receive aid from Kensunke Tanabe, producer/co-producer of the original games, as well as Retro Studios. This does mean that the game will take much longer to release, though seeing how much care is going into the development, I’m sure it will be worth the wait!
REVIEW – New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe
It’s the new year, and it’s time for a new game… well, an old-new game. The Wii U’s launch title, New Super Mario Bros. U is getting the ‘Deluxe’ treatment and is coming to Nintendo Switch. Travel the various worlds of the Mushroom Kingdom alone, or star a JoyCon for a multiplayer adventure in New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe.
Is New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe worth those shiny, golden coins, or did you grab that poison mushroom again? Find out in our review, after the break!
Boop here for the review!
REVIEW – Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Marvel’s Cinematic Universe may have been the most ambitious crossover once upon a time, but I believe Super Smash Bros. Ultimate now takes the title for itself. The popular party fighting game is back once again, and this time everyone is here!
Is Super Smash Bros. Ultimate as strong as Incineroars ‘wrastling’, or as weak as Waluigi’s chances are to become a playable fighter? Find out in our review, after the break!
Smash here for the review!
Countdown to Smash – An open letter to Masahiro Sakurai
Unless you’ve already received your copy, there is only one day left until Super Smash Bros. launches on Nintendo Switch. Even then, it may only be a mere matter of hours!

To celebrate one more day (more or less) until launch, I’ve written an open letter to Masahiro Sakurai, as well as the rest of the team behind Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. Check it out after the break!
