Mining for a Crafty Review
So, given the limitations of the game on this console versus the amount of time I have already spent playing the game, I would have to give the game a 4 out of 5 for an overall rating. Barring some small, acceptable limitations for the hardware, this is the DEFINITIVE VERSION of the game, and likely the last one I will feel the need to buy. Unless, of course, the “New” Switch U is not backwards co...
The Curious Case of Yooka-Laylee’s Switch Release
“A delayed game is eventually good, but a rushed game is forever bad.” This is a quote from Mr. Miyamoto, and the point is pretty clear: Slow and steady wins the race. But if Duke Nukem Forever taught us anything, it’s that there’s a clear window between perfecting something and missing the mark. Enter Yooka-Laylee, the much-hyped and overall positively-received title from newcomer ind...
Throw Hands Like a Champ: ARMS Tips & Tricks
So you wanna be the next ARMS champ, huh? Wear the belt, have the screaming fans chanting your name? Then listen up kid. These are some quick tips to get those Arms of yours in top form. Buttons or Motion? ARMS can be played either with button controls or motion controls. Three members of the Infendo crew prefer button controls, while one of us (cough cough, Steve) is still using motion con...
Infendo Review – Super Bomberman R
Make no mistake, this is a game with a lot of heart. There are plenty of little things I didn’t notice until the 5th time through a specific level. You can tell the development team had a lot of fun reinventing their characters, creating personalities for them and giving them each unique motivations, however two-dimensional, for their bombing antics. And in turn, that makes it a game worth playing...
Infendo Review – Super Bomberman R
Bomberman is a series that has stayed fairly true-to-form since its release in 1983 as a tech demo for Hudson Soft. That’s not to say the games haven’t evolved, as all games do, over time. But it wouldn’t be a stretch to say if you’ve played one Bomberman title, you should have a pretty good idea of what you’re getting into when you start a new game. In many ways, the same can be said for Super Bo...
Review: NES30 Pro and FC30 Pro Controllers by 8Bitdo
All-in-all, I am happy with my purchase. The controller works great on puzzle games, and I am confident that it will work well with NES Virtual Console games if they release on the Switch. It does not work for modern games as well, as they are designed around modern controllers. There are exceptions to this rule, of course. It is the perfect size to take on a trip, and even (some models) come with...
Review: NES30 Pro and FC30 Pro Controllers by 8Bitdo
Nintendo Switch Review By Steve Peacock Thinking back to when I preordered my Switch, I remember thinking how cool it was that the Switch was ready for two people to play right out of the box. We don’t generally have people over to play games with us, so I figured I would be okay with just the Joy-Con that come in the box. Boy, was I wrong. When Mario Kart 8 Deluxe came out, I began to look ...

Infendo Review: The Waterfield Cityslicker Switch Case
It’s not often that you find something that you couldn’t live without, especially while thinking that you didn’t actually need it. I felt this way before I first laid my hands on the Switch, and I felt that way about owning a case for my Switch before I laid my hands on the Waterfield CitySlicker. The folks at Waterfield we’re kind enough to send Infenfo a CitySlicker case over for review, a...
Infendo Review: Nintendo Switch
Sitting upon my desk daring me to never finish this review is my now two week old Nintendo Switch. This $300 piece of tech is one of the only things that will get me into a Walmart at 12 AM on a work night, and what a beautiful piece of tech it is. Included in the box is the Joy-Con (L) and (R), Nintendo Switch Dock, Joy?Con Wrist Straps, Joy?Con Grip, an HDMI Cable, Nintendo Switch AC Adapter, an...

This week we talk Pokémon GO, Fire Emblem Heroes, Nintendo Switch, and even find ourselves transfarring into another Nintentunes segment. We would love for your voice to be heard on the ...
