Apologies for the incorrect date in the header image – Nintendo AU never published one so this is UK time. As always, expect about 20 minutes of announcements and updates on indie games coming soon (or soon-ish) to Nintendo Switch. While all of these are confirmed for Nintendo’s console, there is a very good chance they are already available or…

Today, Nintendo posted a 15-minute presentation solely for the game featuring new gameplay, new power-ups, and transformative Wonder effects from the upcoming Nintendo Switch game. It also announced a new Mario-themed OLED Nintendo Switch model.…
Read MoreDandori is a pretty simple word in the Japanese language. It simply means “plan,” “arrangement,” or “organisation.” A person that’s really effective at organising their time has good dandori. A person that is always late to meetings has poor dandori.

Read MoreIt’s hard to say, but it’s true: the Nintendo Switch is nearing the end of its lifecycle. So it best go out with a bang! Today’s Nintendo Direct features titles mostly releasing this year, with a few coming in 2024. Here are my highlights from the showcase, as well as…
