A historian and avid gamer, Joshua ‘NantenJex’ Goldie has a passion for obscure Nintendo gaming. His brain is full of useless trivia about well-known and rarely played Nintendo titles alike, from Super Mario and Fire Emblem to The Mysterious Murasame Castle and Marvelous: Another Treasure Island.

If you have a question about one of Nintendo's 250+ IPs, then he's the guy to ask. He's best known as the owner of Source Gaming, but you can also find his videos on the Nintendo Chronicler YouTube channel, hear him on the Nintendormant Podcast, and read his work in several of Ninty Media's book series.

He wants you all to know that Yoshi is objectively the best Nintendo character.

Feature One Year On, Is Anyone Still Playing Drag x Drive?

Drag x Thrive?
Despite what some might think, Nintendo is always releasing games under new IP. It’s not all just Mario and Pokémon. In late May, they released Pictonico! on mobile, and in early August they released D-Hopper on Virtual Boy (technically an old IP that finally saw the light of day).

We've been expecting you, Buddy Mission BOND
Did you know that every year Nintendo publishes at least one new IP? It’s true, they haven’t missed a year since 1983, the year the Famicom launched in Japan. [Editor's note. Except for 2022, it seems. You were on a roll, Nintendo!] In 2020 we had Good Job!, Astral Chain in 2019, Sushi Striker in...

Feature From Famicom Disk System To Switch - The Evolution Of Nintendo's Miis

Love Mii do
Ah, the Mii. We remember when we first made our own Miis back in 2006. Back then the most character customisation we had experienced was probably with The Sims, so making Miis of our friends, family and favourite video game characters was a fun pastime. It's a real shame, then, that Nintendo stepped away from their Miis, presumably in an...

Talking Point Nintendo 3DS Features That Should Really Be On Switch

Folders! Cover plates! StreetPass!
2021 is the 10th anniversary of the Nintendo 3DS, a lovely little system that helped carry Nintendo through a somewhat turbulent 2010s. Its companion home system, the Wii U, wasn’t doing so hot, but the 3DS spent much of its time hosting hit after hit. As a mixture of console and handheld, the Switch is a...
