Pokemon Champions is missing this key feature
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Ethan in Features, Switch | 0 comments
At the time of writing, Pokemon Champions is missing a whole bunch of features – it’s missing many Pokemon, a lot of items that are popular in competitive play, as well as extensive customization options for your trainer. Of course, none of that is really worth complaining about right now, because it’s clear that all of these features will be added to the game over time. On that note, all we have to do is wait! But with that being said, there’s one key feature missing from Pokemon Champions that isn’t actually guaranteed to make it in: the ability to battle other players in Singles with a full team of 6 Pokemon per trainer.

Former Nintendo exec explains why the company doesn’t tend to put its games on sale
Posted on 2 weeks ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Reggie Fils-Aime, former president at Nintendo of America, has spoken about why the company doesn’t tend to put its games on sale.
Speaking at the NYU Game Centre Lecture Series, Reggie brought up the “Nintendo mentality” of making the best games and shipping them complete. He said that while the company does sometimes do big day-one updates, apparently the company hates doing so. But because of this mentality, that’s why Nintendo sales can be tough to come by.

How to get into Nintendo’s EarthBound series in 2026, and which order to play in
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Features | 0 comments
By now, it’s no secret that EarthBound is one of the greatest JRPG series of all time. It’s also no secret that if you don’t live in Japan, there’s no legal way to play the third game in a language you can read. You might’ve seen Ness in Super Smash Bros. or something similar, and want to get into the EarthBound series for the first time. So how do you do that? Well, the intended order of the series is EarthBound Beginnings, EarthBound, and then Mother 3, and players who have Nintendo Switch Online can access the first two games no problem. But we actually don’t recommend playing EarthBound Beginnings first – here’s everything you need to know about the best order to play the games in.

Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto has shared some insight into why The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is so fast-paced.
One of the complaints surrounding the film is that it doesn’t give viewers much of a chance to breathe. There’s a lot that happens in the roughly 90 minutes of screen time that it can be a lot to take in. Having said that, this was apparently intentional.

5 Pokemon that need evolutions in Winds and Waves
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Features, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Today, we’ve listed off five weak Pokemon that deserve some time in the spotlight with a new evolution. It’s possible we could see a Paldea Pokemon receive its own evolution, but for the sake of the list, we’ve kept it limited to Pokemon that have been around for more than a single generation.
Now that Pokemon Winds and Waves have been revealed, it’s time for the fun part: speculating! Pokemon Scarlet and Violet introduced a whole bunch of new evolutions for old Pokemon, so it’s safe to assume Pokemon Winds and Waves will do the same.
