Nicole and I are big gamers and we both have fond memories of early PC and console games. While our two kids and business prevent us from diving into games like we used to, we’ll always be gamers at heart. So when my buddy Brian Ibbot from Coverville asked me to help him with an arcade cabinet, I jumped on the opportunity.

The making of Samurai Shodown (2019)
They’re calling this the year of the samurai. And why shouldn’t they? The team at SNK Corporation has spent the last several years working to revive the venerable Samurai Shodown series, and the new entry finally launches this month — with an anthology of Samurai Shodown classics on the way in the fall. Evo, the world’s biggest annual fighting game tournament, will also feature 2019’s Samurai Shodown as one of this year’s nine main-event titles.

Someone Turned Mario Into A Battle Royale, And It’s The Best Thing
Battle royale is one of the most dominant gameplay forms of the last few years, and Tetris 99 showed that you could apply the battle royale concept to anything. Mario Royale turns the classic NES game into a 75-person death race that’s some of the most fun I’ve had all year.
Mario Royale, which can currently be played in web browsers, is the creation of a YouTuber and programmer named InfernoPlus and pits 75 players against each other in a race through one world of Super Mario Bros. or The Lost Levels. Players can’t directly interact with each other—a Mario can’t stomp on another Mario—but power-ups like fire flowers and invincibility stars do allow players to take each other out. That’s not really the point, though; Mario Royale is a sort of collective race to the finish. Only the first three players to make it to the end of four levels will end up on the winner’s pedestal. The real challenge is making sure your platforming skills are up to par and that you can avoid goombas and clear jumps amidst all the chaos.
The Nintendo Switch Mini that Nintendo keeps denying might’ve just leaked
Countless rumors and reports from credible sources (including The Wall Street Journal) have claimed that Nintendo is preparing to launch at least one new Switch model in the near future, but the Japanese company has refused to make the news official. The cat may finally be out of the bag, though, as a collection of accessories for the “Nintendo Switch Mini” has appeared on a Chinese gaming accessory manufacturer’s website.
Before we go any further, there are a few very important caveats worth noting. First and foremost, the image at the top of this post features a mockup of the Nintendo Switch Mini that has been floating around on the internet for ages. It’s not what the actual console is going to look like. Secondly, there are no actual specifications listed alongside the accessories (size, weight, etc.), which is suspicious, to say the least.

Breathe of the Wild 2 Trailer Analysis: Return of Ganondorf.
Although everyone knew Nintendo would have a surprise up their sleeves for E3, few thought that they would reveal the next Zelda game (although we predicted it right before the show.) Dubbed Breath of the Wild 2, a direct sequel to Breath of the Wild, Link’s newest adventure seems to feature some key elements from the Zelda franchise not seen since 2006. This is exciting, and one of the many reasons Nintendo dominated E3 2019. While on the surface the trailer doesn’t seem to give us much information, if you dive a little deeper, as we’re about to, you’ll find that there are an abundance of clues as to what the next installment in the epic franchise may be about.
