Countdown To Switch 2: Best Of The Switch

~ Andrew Lokken ~ Leave a comment

It’s been eight years since the Nintendo Switch launched, and I’ve talked about it a whole lot on this blog in that time. It’s pretty crazy to think that at the time of this writing, the Switch 2 is only one week away. Before we put the original Switch to rest, I thought it’d be cool to write a little bit about my favorite games on the system. This won’t be the most comprehensive list. I was thinking of the best way to do this, and decided to do the highest ranking Switch game on each of my game of the year lists. That means there’s going to be a bunch I miss, but I can’t make this post a million words long. So, let’s get started.

E3 Or Whatever Predictions 2025

~ Andrew Lokken ~ Leave a comment

It’s that time of the year again. Big video game announcements are just around the corner, and I’m going to make some predictions about them. They’re probably pretty bad predictions, my results never turn out too accurate, but it’s fun to do anyway. This is also an interesting year as Nintendo will have just released the Switch 2 when these shows air, and Xbox is in a very different place than it traditionally has been. But here’s my predictions!

Countdown To Switch 2: Most Anticipated Games

~ Andrew Lokken ~ Leave a comment

At the time of this writing, we are twenty-three days away from the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2. It’s pretty crazy to think about. The original Switch came out about a year after I started this blog, and it’s been easily the console I’ve talked about the most here. But, it’s time to transition to the next console, and with that comes a bunch of new games. So, I thought I’d talk about the games I’m most excited for.

Random Game Wednesdays: Super Star Wars: Return Of The Jedi (SNES)

~ Andrew Lokken ~ Leave a comment

By some coincidence, the random game chosen for me on the week of Star Wars Day is a Star Wars game. Super Star Wars: Return Of The Jedi, or Super Return Of The Jedi as we always called it, is a game that I spent a lot of time with growing up. The same is true with the other games in the Super Star Wars trilogy, the first of which I actually wrote a Random Game Wednesdays post on all the way back in 2016. I was mostly positive on that first one, but what about this third one?

Random Game Wednesdays: WCW Backstage Assault (N64)

~ Andrew Lokken ~ Leave a comment

While browsing a thrift store some time last year, I came across a blue Nintendo 64 cartridge. Upon inspecting it, I learned it was a copy of WCW Backstage Assault, I could have it for less than five dollars. I have never really enjoyed any of the N64 wrestling games, even the ones that everyone says are great, but I happen to know that this isn’t one of those. I’m also something of a late bloomer when it comes to being a wrestling fan, so this game is based on an era of wrestling that I don’t have any nostalgia for. But, it would be funny to own the bad wrestling game and it was cheap, so it came home with me. It has sat on my shelf ever since.

A Review Of Big Buck Hunter Arcade For Some Reason

~ Andrew Lokken ~ 1 Comment

The other day, popular Twitter and Bluesky account, Wario64, posted that Big Buck Hunter Arcade was being delisted from Steam on Tuesday and it was currently $10. With the exception of an old Windows Phone version, I have never played any of the home releases of the Big Buck Hunter series, mostly because I just don’t think the game would work without the actual arcade setup. That being said, I love the arcade game, so I decided to download Big Buck Hunter Arcade to my Steam Deck.

How About That Direct?| Nintendo Switch 2 4/2/25

~ Andrew Lokken ~ 1 Comment

After months of waiting and rampant speculation, we finally got some real information on the Nintendo Switch 2. Obviously, I’ve been losing my mind over the possibilities this whole time. There are very few things I enjoy as much as I enjoy a new Nintendo platform’s launch, and this is only the second one to happen since I started writing this blog! But, did the Direct live up to my expectations?
