    1964 Operation Velvet Twins (NS) (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Developer SEEP seems to operate in an alternate universe where the NES was never discontinued. With games like Ninja 1987, Airborne Justice, 1989 After the War, and, now, 1964 Operation Velvet Twins, the indie studio channels a simpler, purer period in the video game timeline, where players had only two buttons at their disposal and the biggest obstacle wasn't a big bad boss battle but having to go to bed before finishing the game. Like many NES games, 1964 Operation Velvet Twins is light on sto

    The Ocarina of Time Remake Has a Nostalgia Problem (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is one of the best games ever made. No, that isn’t my 15-year-old self talking. I replayed the legendary game five years ago, and came away with nothing but love and admiration, even if it did drop several spots on my list of all-time greats. I can say with complete confidence it remains a brilliant example of the medium, three decades later. Thus, when Nintendo officially announced a Switch 2 remake of Ocarina back on June 9, I was instantly excited, even th

    Splatoon Raiders (NS2) (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Switch 2 has been full of surprises. In just 15 months, it has hosted the first 3D Donkey Kong game in 26 years, an open-world Mario Kart, a sequel to Kirby Air Ride, and a Minecraft-esque Pokémon offshoot that's currently contending for GotY status. Yet, nothing is quite as surprising as Splatoon Raiders, a single-player spin-off from the mainline competitive shooter series. I think many of us expected the game to be one of those humble, workmanlike titles that fill in the gaps between big rele

    Culdcept Begins (NS2) (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    It doesn't get much more niche than Culdcept. A card-collecting, turn-based tactics series, it debuted on Saturn in 1997, only in Japan. Since then, releases have been sporadic, rarely reaching the full international audience. Culdcept Begins, which arrived last month on PC, Switch, and Switch 2, is the first new installment in a decade. Thanks to its worldwide release and focus on accessibility, perhaps this latest Culdcept title is the one to recruit a larger following. Culdcept Begins is spli

    Moonlight Peaks (NS2) (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Is it possible for a fanbase to be spoiled? When it comes to fans who follow farming/social sims on Switch 2, the answer is yes. In a little over a year, they've been treated to Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, Story of Seasons: Grand Bazaar, Pokémon Pokopia, Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream, and, now, Moonlight Peaks. Thanks to a clever twist and a supernatural setting, Moonlight Peaks stands out from the crowd. But is it as essential as the others? Moonlight Peaks starts dramatically. The chi
