Pokémon Duel out of nowhere!
I can’t speak for anyone else, but I for one had absolutely no idea that this was a thing, but a thing it is. At face value Pokémon Duel appears to be a game that is easy to learn and difficult to master, with some nonsense RNG thrown into the mix, of course. Having only […]

Nintendo has just announced their Mini NES, which will be released this year on the 10th of November in Australia. Retailing […]
Nintendo’s Two Days of Dreams
Nintendo’s two days of E3 goodness has come and gone. Leaving some hopes fulfilled and others crushed. Being highly pessimistic of the whole endeavour, I am pleasantly surprised with everything. Day one started with a bang, a new trailer for the newly named the Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. A brief interlude into […]
