The 40-minute briefing will be Nintendo’s first of 2022, and the first major presentation of Nintendo Switch games to fans since September last year. 2022 looks to be a busy year for Nintendo, with its long-awaited Breath of the Wild sequel (hopefully) turning up on schedule, alongside Splatoon 3, the delayed Advance Wars 1+2, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, Bayonetta 3, and maybe some more Metroid. As ever, Eurogamer will be reporting live....
Nintendo released a new trailer for its latest Mario Kart Tour update which shows off the Miis in all their racing glory. Players will have a new selection of racing suits to choose from when this update goes live, including (but not limited to) Peach, Donkey Kong and Mario inspired outfits. But looking sharp is not all these suits are good for. Each outfit also comes with a special skill that can utilised while racing....
The debut trailer is below: ORIGINAL STORY: Nintendo’s official website has revealed a brand new Switch game: Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. Nintendo.com lists the game alongside three screenshots and an official blurb: “Team up with Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Rabbid Peach, Rabbid Luigi, and their friends on a galactic journey to defeat a malevolent entity and save your Spark companions. Explore planets throughout the galaxy as you uncover mysterious secrets and compelling quests!...
The intriguing list includes numerous upcoming games, some which are unannounced for PC and others which have not been formally announced at all. Nvidia has now acknowledged the leak as legitimate, but told Wccftech that titles were “speculative” and “used only for internal tracking and testing”. “Inclusion on the list is neither confirmation or an announcement of any game.” With that in mind, it’s worth having a look at some of the games listed....
There’s a parallel, I’m sure, with one of my favourite video game companies somewhere in there. Toshio Kashio, a younger brother in the family behind one of Japan’s most famous exports, repurposed the calculators he’d built to accommodate his amateur musicianship, making it possible to play simple melodies on them before they eventually blossomed into full-sized keyboards, just as Gunpei Yokoi once took those LCD displays and repurposed them for something more playful....
The idea is to design a system that will give you a reasonable degree of future-proofing and the ability to handle both gaming and content creation tasks, all for a reasonable price. For each category of components - processor, RAM, storage - we’ve given our top value-for-money recommendation, plus more options if you want to save money or go for higher-grade components than our suggested spec. At the end of the piece, you’ll have a balanced build with components that should work together well....
Peppa Pig: World Adventures is an interactive adventure that will see Peppa hoofing around the sights of New York City, Paris, Australia, London, and many other locations from around the globe.

Watch on YouTube Peppa Pig: World Adventures | Announce Trailer...
“Been quiet on here lately, but here’s some exciting news,” developer Kinetic Games teased on its social media channels, accompanying the statement with a single image that shows the name, date, and time the update is expected to go live over a screenshot of a single camping tent. Beyond that, the developer isn’t saying much, but eagle-eyed fans spotted a card pertaining to the new mode on the game’s public Trello board, which reveals the update is now being tested....
The new content features “new and improved” equipment, which includes the DOTS projector, and two additional ghosts, “the newly discovered Myling and Goryo”. “While you’ve been gone, we’ve taken the time to upgrade all of your gear,” begins the Steam description of Update v.0.3.0. “It’s been improved in every aspect and some of it has received new functionality. “We’ve also had several reports of new paranormal entities emerging from haunted locations....
Though you can earn many consumable items through regular play, some things - faster Slots for growing Seedlings - are only possible through acquiring Pikmin Bloom Coins. There are two ways to get Coins. One is through paying real-world money (the means of which the game is monetised) and the other is by walking and planting flowers. On this page: To plant flowers, make sure you tap the ‘Flower’ button on the right side....
Developed in conjunction with Nintendo, this introduces Pikmin to your daily walks - allowing you to grow, pick and feed your own fleet of Pikmin as they follow you around. Niantic has confirmed tentative Pikmin Bloom release dates for regions around the world - and if it’s not available just yet, then there’s plenty to read up on ahead of release. On this page: Pikmin Bloom then released in North and South America - including US and Canada - one day later, on Thursday, October 28th, 2021....
My guests are Martin “the chief” Robinson and Chris “the brain” Tapsell, and we’ve got a lot to talk about. There’s the whole PlayStation Plus relaunch, for starters. Is it any good? Chris has thoughts, as you might have already read, and Martin has plenty too. Chris also has plenty to say about a game he reviewed this week called Milky Way Star - The Vampire Prince, a visual novel that sounds fascinating when explained....
Backbone One PlayStation Edition is identical to the existing Backbone One controller, with one key difference: it eschews the original’s black colour scheme in favour of pristine white hues inspired by Sony’s DualSense wireless controller. However, other familiar DualSense design elements, including parallel thumbsticks, are not replicated. Sony is promoting the Backbone One PlayStation Edition - which is powered by the connected device - as the perfect companion to its PS Remote Play service, enabling players to stream their games from their PS4 or PS5 consoles to their iPhones using the dedicated App Store app....
Perhaps that’s what makes Pocky and Rocky Reshrined, a 2D scrolling action game for Switch and PS4, so compelling: it was developed by the same core staff that created the SNES version of Pocky and Rocky 30 years ago. As such, it goes way beyond a typical retro remake, preserving the action and aesthetics of the original title while significantly expanding its length and breadth. Reshrined is also a shining example of a Unity game done right on a technical level - more or less, anyway....
Kametz was best known for his work as Ferdinand Von Aegir in Fire Emblem: Three Houses and forthcoming Fire Emblem Heroes, as well as playing Blue in Pokémon Masters. He passed away after a battle with stage four colon cancer. Kametz also voiced characters in a number of notable games: Triangle Strategy (Jerrom), Persona 5 Royal (Takuto Maruki), Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games Tokyo 2020 (male announcer), Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster (Raidou Kuzunoha), 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim (Nenji Ogata), and more....
Each new Generation has their own regionals - whether it’s spawning only in that region, continent or hemisphere or having their forms spread out across the globe, encouraging players to travel and trade to catch ’em all. Since their release, by and large the creatures have remained locked to their specific regions, except in a handful of special events or regional swaps. So unless you travel a lot - or have Friends willing to Trade them - you might have to be patient for them to arrive on your shores....
Anyone found using “illegally modified data” will be subject to various punishments, and potentially a loss of access to Home’s subscription service even if they had paid up for the privilege. “We have confirmed that some users are playing Pokémon Sword Shield and Pokémon Home using illegally modified data,” the company wrote in a newly-released statement. “In addition, we will take the following measures for users who are deemed inappropriate in terms of operation, such as causing problems with the operation of software and applications or causing inconvenience to other users....
Alongside those, however, is a surprise distrubution of the Diancite for Mega Diancie, too.

In an update on the Destruction AllStars subreddit, developer Lucid outlined features due out for the action driving game. Chief among them is the addition of online bots. Lucid acknowledged that the size of Destruction AllStars’ community, spread out as it is across the world, means the game has peak times and low times of player activity for online matchmaking. The peaks tend to be around 5pm to 11pm UK time during weekdays, and 3pm to 2am UK time on the weekend....
