Feature Remembering Super Mario 128, The Groundbreaking Masterpiece That Never Really Existed
When is a game not a game?
The Super Mario series has been responsible for some pretty amazing forward strides in the video game industry; the NES original arguably triggered a 2D platforming goldrush which would dominate the ‘80s and early ‘90s, while Super Mario 64 did the same for 3D gaming in general. Later, Super Mario Galaxy would allow...
Feature A 20th Anniversary Zelda Adventure - Playing Ocarina Of Time For The First Time
Hyrule still rules
Ocarina of Time happened at the wrong time. Not so much for the fortunes of its original platform, the Nintendo 64, nor legions of Zelda fans old and new around the word – the game would sell two and a half million copies between its November 20th release and the end of the year. But said year, 1998, was one where a lot changed...

Guide Pokémon GO Shiny Pokémon And How To Catch Them
Rise and Shiny
Shiny Pokémon are as elusive and mysterious in Pokémon GO as you'd expect. They started rolling out last year in March with Shiny Magikarp and Red Gyaradaos, but now number at almost 100. They're so rare though, that it might well be a long while before you encounter one – if you encounter one at all. In this guide, we're going...

Spinda PokéStop
Updated with the different Spinda forms. Niantic has recently added Spinda to Pokémon GO, bringing us one step closer to having all of the Gen 3 Pokémon in the hit mobile game.

Blade & Driver Combos, Chain Attacks, & More Explained
To describe Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna ~ The Golden Country as DLC is a bit misleading. There are tons of fully fledged games on Nintendo Switch that offer far less in terms of content, and some of those are even JRPGs themselves. Expansion is closer to the truth but standalone prequel is...

A Mew you
Back in March, Niantic finally added the mythical Pokémon Mew to Pokémon GO with the introduction of research quests.

Guide What To Do If Cloud Saves On Nintendo Switch Online Aren't Working As They Should
Back it up, back it in
Nintendo's new cloud service for backing up saves is a good idea in theory. If the worst happens to your console you can continue your adventures on a new system without breaking a save-data-loss-themed sweat. Backups are even handled automatically, so you needn't worry about remembering to do it yourself all the time. But...

Hardware Classics Exploring Luigi's Debut, The Mario Bros. Game & Watch

Luigi may not be quite as famous as his illustrious sibling, but there's a fair chance that you could stop a random person on the street and they'd still be able to identify him or at the very least acknowledge his association with the Super Mario Bros. series.

Talking Point Do We Still Need Review Scores?
I like to score
Review scores have been a thing since the earliest days of the video game industry. Publications in the early '80s would always rate games on their own scale, using either percentages, stars, letters of the alphabet or - as we do - a rating out of 10. If you grew up with video game magazines such as EGM, GamePro, Mean Machines, CVG...
