Raiders of the Broken Planet is not Your Typical Shooter

One of the games I had the pleasure of demo-ing for an extended period of time on the E3 showfloor was Raiders of the Broken Planet. The game comes from the development team MercurySteam, whom you might recognize them as the team responsible for the upc

Remember A Hat in Time? It's Almost Here and Looking Great

I first heard of A Hat in Time back in 2013 when they launched their Kickstarter. I even included it in an article on Nintendo Castle when it was still planned for release on Wii U. This was two years before Yooka-Laylee launched their Kickstarter, so t

Tornado Tower Puts a Twist on Platforming that Refreshes a Stale Genre

I was at The MIX and walked up to Tornado Tower. They asked if I wanted to try it out and, obviously, I said yes. I mean, what else is the point of me being there if I wasn’t going to try everything out that I could in the allotted amount of time.

Animal Crossing New Horizons Multiplayer

We got a litle bit of Animal Crossing: New Horizons news and footage in this week's Nintendo Direct. Rather than buying basic items and tools, being on a deserted island means that you'll be crafting them. This is done through gathering raw materials accross the island and the help of a little bit of Tom Nook magic.

Resident Services and Nook Miles (TM) were shown off in a little more detail. One of the new tools shown off was a vaulting pole. This tool will allow you to hop over narrow bodies of water without needing a bridge. And of course, weeds now serve a purpose: you can sell them to Tom Nook for some petty cash.

Multiplayer was also shown off once again, this time with a few new details. Up to four players can play together on the same island on a single system. Even more interesting, it seems that eight players can hop online (or locally with 8 systems) and all visit and play on the same island. Nintendo Switch Online is of course required for this feature.

You can check out the full trailer below. It's styled as a Nook Inc. infomercial and rather cute. The game will release next year, exclusively on Nintendo Switch, on March 20, 2020.
