With the Nintendo Switch, the system is still very young and development of third parties on the system is still a question mark. According to one former developer that worked on NBA Playgrounds initially though, the Nintendo Switch is easier to develop for than one of its competitors. Originally being developed by Virtual Toys, NBA…

In VR, Synth Riders is an inventive rhythm game that gets you active and moving in a way Beat Saber sometimes can’t. It even features a strong soundtrack to boot. The Switch version is entirely different. It abandons the first person perspective and motion controls in the name of a more straightforward musical experience with a synth rider hackers racing on roads and rails through a city. While the track listing is still strong, the Synth Rider Switch fiddly controls and a technical issue with the camera keep it from being a memorable and essential rhythm game.  While the concept…

If you have any fears that Fire Emblem Warriors will be a simple reskin of Hyrule Warriors or not try to remain faithful to its source material, then you’ll pleased to know that everything which was shown will put those fears to rest. FE Warriors is its own game through and through and not only incorporates…

Only the trailer was available, however, so we didn’t get to see any gameplay of any of these new characters in action…until now. It turns out there was a demo for Fire Emblem Warriors at Japan Expo which was a different build than the one at E3. This time around, the…
