I’ve been excited for a return to Forgotten Valley since Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life was announced; I remember playing the original, though barely. At that point in time (2003) it was still branded as Harvest Moon. Of the Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons titles, it stands out for one…

What can I say about GoldenEye 007? It’s more than a cult classic – a cult obsession maybe? Either way, since it was released in 1997 it’s been a beloved game for literally millions of people. Back in September, it was announced that the game would be coming to Nintendo…
