Review: PBA Pro Bowling 2026 (Nintendo Switch)

To start this review with something very personal: My father passed away last week. It’s been difficult, to put it mildly. The reason I bring it up is that Dad absolutely loved Ten-Pin Bowling. Had his own ball, ball bag (I had no idea they made bowling ball bags), shoes,…

Review: Touken Ranbu Warriors (Nintendo Switch)

May 24, 2022

Koei Tecmo/Nintendo Switch/Reviews

Touken Ranbu is a game about pretty boys. Who are swords. And travel around time, Quantum Leap-style. I’ve got to be honest with you, if you had told me that at some point in my life I’d be playing an anime boys game whose closest direct comparison is an ‘80s…

Review: Snow Bros. Special (Nintendo Switch)

May 23, 2022

Arcade/Nintendo Switch/Reviews

Before there was Bubble Bobble, there was Snow Bros., and the original remains the best. I should explain. Bubble Bobble did actually come first chronologically, but Snow Bros. (the “clone”) was the first single-screen platformer I personally played. Way back on the Game Boy, there was a shrunk-down version of…

Review: Beach Girls: Don’t Lie In Summer (Nintendo Switch)

May 20, 2022

Nintendo Switch/Reviews

And today’s eShop nasty is… Beach Girls: Don’t Lie In Summer! Like Hentai Uni and Waifu Impact before it, Beach Girls landed on the Switch eShop with a minimum of fanfare and little but the promise of sexy fan service. Its goal? To flog it off to a few people…

Seven Pirates H: The most fanservicey fan service of all

May 13, 2022

Video/Video review

Seven Pirates H is Idea Factory’s latest fan service special and even by Idea Factory’s standards for fan service this one *goes places*. So much so that while you’ll see plenty of examples of it in this video there is a bunch of stuff I just don’t want to risk…

Review: Seven Pirates H (Nintendo Switch)

May 12, 2022

Nintendo Swith/Reviews

Seven Pirates H has hit my limit. I am more than happy to whip out Dead or Alive Xtreme 3, Gal*Gun, Hyperdimesnion Neptunia, Nekopara, or any other fanservicey Switch game that you can think of on the train or any other public space. I just don’t care if people look…

Recap: Nintendo Indie World Showcase – May 11, 2022

May 12, 2022

News/Nintendo Switch

It’s time again for what I’ve dubbed the Happy Showcase, as Nintendo Indie World Showcases always feature several games that just feel happy. Most of these titles are coming out this year. As the stream was UK-based, all seasons are from the Northern Hemisphere; “summer” is roughly Q3 and “winter”…

Review: Prinny Presents NIS Classics Volume 2 (Nintendo Switch)

May 10, 2022

Nintendo Switch/NISA/Retro/Reviews

Nippon Ichi is at its best when it is at its most inscrutable and inaccessible. The more heavily a NIS game’s humour leans into a surrealistic anime-style over-the-top tone (whether for comic effect or otherwise), and the more numbers the game can throw at players, the more they tend to…

Review: Ravenous Devils (Nintendo Switch)

May 9, 2022

Nintendo Switch/Reviews/simulation

Before the film that Tim Burton and Johnny Depp had way too much fun with, and before even the Stephen Sondheim musical that more people should see a production of, Sweeny Todd was a Penny Dreadful. People don’t really know what these are anymore, but they were once wildly popular…

Review: Waifu Impact (Nintendo Switch)

May 4, 2022

Nintendo Switch/Reviews

It took me an embarrassingly long time to realise that “Waifu Impact” was a play on Genshin Impact. That’s the most interesting thing about this game, though I must admit that in the hand of competent developers this concept could have been spun into something good. The basic concept is…

Waifu Impact is terrible: Nintendo has got to get this stuff off the Switch

May 4, 2022

Nintendo Switch/Video/Video review

I’m mostly just doing this video to test a new sound recording system that I’m testing – the Maonocaster E2 A. But I also have a point to make! Nintendo has opened the floodgates for fanservicey games, and while fan service is great, the Steam-like stream of absolutely terrible stuff…
