Story Of Seasons Grand Bazaar
This is another remake of a Harvest Moon game made by the original developers. Similar to the other remakes it adds a little quality of life, changes to make it feel both accessible and different enough, and characters being more fleshed out than before. The original Grand Bazaar was one of the more overlooked Harvest…

Nintendo Recent Direct Proves Intent
Alright, I’m sure everyone’s seen the recent direct. It left a bad taste in peoples mouth. First, for Mario’s 40th anniversary they announced a movie and HD remakes of Mario Galaxy and Galaxy 2, but they priced them at $70 with little to no changes, further this is more than Mario 3D All Stars release…

Mother 3 Review
It should be no real surprise that Earthbound is one of my favorite rpgs. Unfortunately its sequel has never been released outside of Japan. This sort of setback will never stop dedicated fans and Nintendo doesn’t really care about fan games and rom hacks unless they make money. So after my Deltarune review I was…

Monster Hunter Stories Twisted Reflection Capcom started off with a new Monster Hunter Stories for Switch 2 for 2026. This is a turn based RPG spinoff set in the Monster Hunter universe. There is not a lot of information on this game. Though seems to be going for a darker story and better graphics then…

Deltarune Chapters 1-4
I played Deltarune a while ago and only recently picked up the game again. This game is a spinoff or sequel to Undertale. Much like Undertale there are two different ways to play. The first is a pacifist playthrough where you can use the act command to calm an enemy and eventually spare them. Or…

Rune Factory: Guardians Of Azuma
Alright, time for the second disappointment I’ve played this year. To be fair my first Rune Factory game was 4/special for the 3DS. This and Fantasy Life’s sequel have been very hard for me to recommend. There is a lot in this game, but most of it is hard to say whether it adds anything…

Mind’s Eye Refunds and Poor Decisions
Mind’s Eye released and I’d honestly be surprised if you knew what this game is. It seems to have Playstation of all companies providing refunds I think IO Interactive has some responsibility. It should be noted it is a game made by former Rockstar developer Leslie Benzies. He has worked on nearly every GTA amoung…

Fantasy Life I Review
I’m not going to say I hate this game it is actually a good game, but executes everything it is trying to do awfully compared to the 3DS game. It doesn’t feel like a sequel or better than the original in any way. First the Life system feels worse. In the 3DS game each Life…

Frustrations With The Price Of Games And May Have To Switch To Solely Steam Indie Games
I love how XBOX looked at the Switch 2 controversy and rather than take an easy win they tried the same thing. $80 games and increase price on their systems. About three days ago from when this post is written XBOX announced that they were increasing price on everything. Now at least Nintendo had some…

Nintendo Direct Thoughts and Opinions
Dragon Quest 1+2 HD Remake I thought we already had remakes of these games. Dragon Quest is a turn based RPG published by Square and has been around almost as long as Final Fantasy. The story is often good and I suppose if you never played either of these games then they are worth getting.…
