Hands On With Smash Ultimate
We got to go hands on with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and it may be the game that finally topples Melee from the top spot.
Read MoreSoccer Slammers Review
Soccer Slammers certainly looks cool from the outside. The unique artstyle wins you over instantly, and every World Cup team’s included - as well as a few extras to boot. Unfortunately, the core gameplay is incredibly dull, even in multiplayer, and you're unlikely to glean much enjoyment from it for more then 20 minutes or so.
Read MoreToki Tori 2+ Review
Toki Tori 2+ is one of the most cleverly constructed puzzle games out there. Successfully navigating a room can make you feel smarter than Stephen Hawking. But those without the patience to sit there stumped, may find the combination of dastardly level design and a lack of motivation to persevere completely off-putting.
Read MoreSmash Bros at E3 - Retrospective
As we head into E3 2018, the big focus for Nintendo's presentation is the upcoming Super Smash Bros title for Switch. Nintendo's brawler and the LA Convention Centre go together as well as Final Destination and No Items. We here at Nintendo Village thought it would be interesting to take a look at the history of the franchise at the event, and what it could mean for this year’s expo.

That said, once you reach the bottom, there's very little to bring you back for a glory run.
Read MoreMidnight Deluxe Review
Midnight Deluxe doesn't do a whole lot, but what it does do, it does well. There's a wide variety of challenges to overcome, and the genre-standard, 3 star scoring system offers some incentive to play through the stages again. Without a way of tracking your previous efforts, it can be a little frustrating at times, but there's just enough charm here to see the game through.
Read MoreNintendo Switch - One Year On
It's now been one year since Nintendo dropped the Switch on us and we started playing Zelda on the toilet. Needless to say, with an impressive 14 million units sold so far it's been somewhat of a success. So we thought it would be a good idea to look back at just what Nintendo did right in the system's first 12 months, as well as casting a critical eye over some of the not-so-hot aspects.
Read MoreNorth Review
North is an hour-long, continuous experience that pitches itself more as an artsy social commentary piece than a game. Unfortunately, it undermines it's goals through a combination of heavy-handedness, shoddy visuals, and cheap emotional manipulation achieved through simplistic means.
