The trilogy of Assassin's Creed games starring fan-favourite Ezio will arrive for Nintendo Switch on 17th February. This collection has been available for some time on other platforms, and includes remastered versions of Assassin's Creed 2, Brotherhood and Revelations, plus all single-player DLC. You also get the Lineage and Embers short films to watch, completing Ezio's story. It's worth noting, however, the collection is single-player only - the series' old multiplayer modes do not make a return. Retail listings for the collection warn players that only Assassin's Creed 2 is available on the cartridge, with a download up to 35GB for the rest (thanks, Nintendo Life ). Get those SD cards handy: "Assassin's Creed 2 game available on cartridge. Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Revelations, Embers, Lineage and audio package for additional languages are provided as digital content to download (max. of 35 GB). Internet connection required.

SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clash, widely regarded as one of the very best games for SNK's short-lived but much-loved Neo Geo Pocket, has just arrived on the Nintendo Switch. The port follows the likes of King of Fighters R2 and Samurai Shodown! 2 which previously made their way to Nintendo's hybrid device - and were deftly handled by Code Mystics too . SNK and Capcom have previously gone head-to-head in fighting games that have pitted the publisher's fighting rosters against each other, but in Card Fighters Clash players are presented with a collectible card game that's just as characterful and deep as its fighting counterparts, with players building decks as they face up against other players in what could be described as a chibi Magic: The Gathering. It's up on the Nintendo eShop for £7.19, with the port allowing you to choose between the SNK and Capcom variants of the game - and you're strongly advised to stop what you're doing and go download it this very second. … [Read more...] about The Neo Geo Pocket’s best game just landed on Switch

The Kingdom Hearts series comes to Nintendo Switch next month on 10th February via cloud-only versions of various games - and at a price. Individually, you'll be able to pick up Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 + 2.5 ReMIX Cloud Version for $40. Both Kingdom Hearts HD 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue Cloud Version and Kingdom Hearts 3 + Re Mind (DLC) Cloud Version cost $50 each. Alternatively, you can get the lot via the Kingdom Hearts Integrum Masterpiece for Cloud edition, which is priced at $90. (At the moment, there's a 20 percent off offer if you pre-order - meaning this is temporarily $72.) These prices are live now via the Kingdom Hearts website and US eShop . We've asked Square Enix for UK-specific pricing and will update when we get it through. In the meantime, the $90 price point - especially just for a licence to stream these games - has raised eyebrows among fans. It's not the first time Square Enix has been embroiled in pricing controversy, either. In December, Square Enix … [Read more...] about Square Enix sets $90 price for cloud-only Kingdom Hearts series on Nintendo Switch

We're at a turning point in the world of cheap Nintendo Switch game sales right now.

Nintendo Switch deals have taken an interesting turn this week, with the arrival of a bounty of Nintendo Switch OLED stock replacing the standard console on both US and UK shelves. It's particularly difficult to find Nintendo Switch bundles on the older model now, and the offers that are available are far less valuable than those we're seeing on the new 2021 release. That means we'd recommend upgrading to a shiny OLED display panel if you're in the market for Nintendo Switch deals this week, with stock available across the US and the first truly impressive wave of bundles hitting the UK. While the Mario Kart bundle itself is now largely sold out, you'll find consoles readily available in the US - that's more than we could have said a few weeks ago. Plus, we're still seeing some excellent offers in the UK as well.

Former NBA star Shaquille O'Neal made the holiday season happier for a bunch of kids. O'Neal said that he surprised a bunch of kids at an elementary school in Georgia with free PS5s, Nintendo Switch systems, and other items like bikes. "As long as I'm on this Earth, I'm going to try to do what I can to make sure kids get good toys," O'Neal told the GaryVee Audio Experience podcast (via Essentially Sports ). "Good toys. I called you know, my friends from Nintendo Switch. Got about 1000 Switches sent out and 1000 PS5s. I went to Walmart and got bikes. So you know yesterday, at this little elementary school in McDonough Georgia, kids were crying, kids were happy. And that's what it's all about." O'Neal credits his parents for the philanthropy, saying they didn't have much money but "taught me the value of giving back." From his comments, it seems likely that O'Neal contacted Nintendo directly to arrange the delivery--and likely Sony as well, given the difficulty of finding a … [Read more...] about Shaq Bought Thousands Of PS5s And Nintendo Switch Systems For Kids This Christmas

Nintendo Switch Lite bundle deals can include free games and accessories, but straight price cuts have also become more and more frequent in recent months as well. Right now, though, we're playing a waiting game. Nintendo Switch Lite deals are thin on the shelves this week, with little stock available in the US and bundles running slightly dry in the UK. As it stands today, it's difficult to find stock in the US. We're bringing you all the stock we do find right here, and keeping our ears close to the ground for even a whisper of handhelds hitting the shelves.

There's a new member of the X-Men in town, and he's following in the footsteps of nationalized heroes such as Captain America as Captain Krakoa, the official defender of the mutant nation of Krakoa. But under the mask of Captain Krakoa is a mutant we all know extremely well, and the secret of how and why he's calling himself Captain Krakoa (which we won't spoil right here) raises some questions about mutants in the Marvel Universe. Captain Krakoa is only the latest in a long line of superheroes who have taken on new and different codenames over the years - and these are the best examples of the trend. Iron Man/War Machine James Rhodes started out as the personal pilot and long-time ally of Tony Stark. When physical ailments brought on by alcoholism led Stark to give up his career as Iron Man, it was Rhodes whom he trusted to don the armor. It was an interesting move, because, at the time, even Stark's allies, the Avengers, had no idea who was really … [Read more...] about Captain Krakoa isn’t the first time a superhero switched identities
