[News] Splatfest Now On! (March 2024)


Pick your team and splat it out!

Another Splatfest is upon us. This Splatfest, about which instrument you would play, was first announced on February 29th on Twitter. The choices for this Splatfest are, drums (Shiver), guitar (Frye) and keyboard (Big Man). As usual, this event runs for two full days (March 23rd @ 00:00 - March 24th @ 23:59), with the tri colour battles starting on the second day.

The tri-colour stage this time is Flounder Heights. The layout for it adds some new sections which are used for the defenders to spawn in. It also removes the flank route to the sides of the stage. I think it could be a decent tri colour stage. Last time I thought it was going to be a great stage though with blue fin and I was proven very wrong. That stage was so unbalanced in the end. I can't see this one ending up like that though. Hopefully this time we get a fun experience with tri colour with this stage.

From looking at polls on Twitter and YouTube, it all seems quite even. This is no surprise as it's a completely subjective question to answer. It will be interesting to see which team wins in votes for this one. I picked keyboard myself as a lot of my favourite music has piano in it.

Make sure to use your conch shells before the Splatfest ends and to scrub your Splatfest t-shirt every now and then for those sweet ability chunks! Happy splatting!

That's it for this blog, stay connected!

[News] New "Hype trailer" for Summer Game Fest goes live

  Summer Game Fest gets new video source : twitter.com/summergamefest Summer Game Fest hosted by Geoff Keighley will be live this Thursday, June 8th as announced a few days ago. The event will be streamed everywhere @  3pm ET / Noon PT / 9pm CEST.  Currently, other than a showing for the recently revealed Mortal Kombat remake, there are no details as to what to expect from the show. However, in a follow up tweet to the video post, Geoff states we will find out soon. In that same reply he also says what you see in the video is not indicative of what we will or won't see. So it serves as just a little mind refresher for some of the new games this year. Link to the video can be found here  SGF video I will be watching this event, but I will have my expectations set very low. Previous summer game fests have not been that interesting so I expect this one to follow suit. Though, with E3 not being a thing anymore offici...

[News] Another game comes to Nintendo Switch Online!

Another game is now available for Nintendo Switch Online members   source:  twitter.com/NintendoAmerica Over on X (Twitter), Nintendo has announced that  another game is coming to Nintendo Switch Online. This includes 1 GBA game. The GBA game included in this update is Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team. The GBA app does require the expansion pass tier so if you have it you can enjoy this game. This game will be available from August 9th. For more information on the game click this link: Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team I haven't played Red Rescue Team, but I have played Blue Rescue Team and loved it. They are essentially the same game just Blue Rescue Team was on the DS. Both aren't coming together as we sadly don't have a DS app. I hope people who have the expansion take the time to try this, as the Pokemon Mystery Dungeon games, while a bit repetitive in gameplay, bring a lot more interesting narratives than mainline Pokemon games.   That's it f...

Fully Charged: Clair Obscur Expedition 33, Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble, Shantae and the Seven Sirens, Mario Kart World

Start of a new series! Fully Charged is a series in which I go over games I have recently played. Each instalment will release when I have played 2-4 games, updates or demos. With less time for this blog now, I won't be doing many, if any, full reviews. This series will instead cover the games I have played critically, in a mini-review format. Mario Kart World https://store.nintendo.co.uk This is the game everyone has been playing recently if they got a Switch 2. I want to start off by saying I quite like this game, it feels quite different from 8 in a good way. One of the biggest things I like about the games feel, is the control. Vehicles in this game do not feel as stiff. How could I not mention the wall driving and rail grinding too, those add a lot more depth to tracks and are very fun to do. The new knockout tour is a great addition to the series, I find myself playing these just as much as grand prix's. Free roam is quite fun, there are some cool challenges to do within ...
