The most annoying thing about the new 3DS? You can’t just put in a new SD card, like you could in the old system. Instead of popping off the SD card cover, like you could on the older systems, the new 3DS requires the use of tools. Full disclosure: yesterday, Nintendo provided me with a…
Majora’s Mask. Xenoblade Chronicles. Code Name: Steam. Monster Hunter 4: Ultimate. The 3DS’s lineup for the next few months is strong, of that there is no doubt. What’s less certain is whether or not these new games are worth playing on the newest 3DS. Luckily, yesterday I had a chance to test drive all of…
Nearly every Pokémon player I know has, at one point during their career as a trainer, handled a hacked Pokémon. Even prominent Pokemon players have been suspected of cheating, and in a single competition, The Pokémon Company has caught thousands of cheaters at once. Pokemon’s online bank system, which stores monsters for players, has also…
The weirdest Zelda game, 2000’s Nintendo 64 great The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask, is finally coming to the 3DS on February 13th. Yesterday, I had a chance to play the game for a little bit during a Nintendo event in San Francisco, and I got to see some of the changes featured in the…
No Land Beyond’s bad rap with Destiny players seems to be motivating some people to prove everyone wrong about the gun. First, we had the person who soloed the latest raid with the gun.And now we have a montage of someone straight up owning other players in the Crucible with the alleged worst gun in…
Two minutes of some of the best skydiving stunts around, all done by one player. I’ve seen my share of skydiving montages before, but some of the landings that RedKeyMon nails here left me stunned. Even stunts I’ve seen before—like the classic Liquor Hole one above—have an added twist. It’s pretty amazing! Check it out:…
Thanks to something called “Wonder Trade,” Pokémon players regularly put monsters up for trade blindly, without knowing what they’ll get in return. Maybe it’ll be a garbage Pokémon, or maybe it’ll be a legendary. Not knowing what you’ll get in exchange for your Pokémon is part of the fun—but even so, hardcore players are compiling…
Smash Boards is holding a contest for articles—and this has resulted in 17 Smash Bros. guides you should read to become a better Smash player.Not every character is included, but still: you should check this out!
Smash Bros. does have some Pokémon characters that you can use, like Charizard and Greninja. But, there aren’t enough playable characters for a Pokémon-centric fighting game. Enter mods. Thing is, Smash Bros. games do include the character models for plenty of Pokémon, for use whenever you throw Pokeballs in matches. Sleepy Jirachi seems to have…
Meet El Bastardo. He’s spent 20 years in jail, all because of some rats. But now he’s out—and he’s going to get revenge. Check out this great fake movie trailer by 8-BIT BASTARD—it’s really well done, and it takes inspiration from Quentin Tarantino. Between this and the goofy comedy trailerwe posted about earlier this month,…
Powerful Pokémon and cool Pokémon are important to have in any arsenal—but they’re not the only kinds of Pokémon you’ll use. Everyone needs Pokémon that are useful, to help you capture and train other Pokémon. That’s where Utility Pokémon come in. Redditor Pekolachi remade a version of an infographic created by KaSlaps, and it’s something…
Today at Kotaku HQ, we got a curious email titled “Skyrim is still thriving.” In it, reader Bernard Beben posed the idea that Skyrim was still “going strong” despite its age. As evidence, he enclosed a video of a very NSFW playthrough of Skyrim Behold. This is the power of mods: you can make everyone…
One last ghost story before the year ends: do yourself a favor and try out the “supplemental” game to Night in the Woods that released earlier this month. It’s called Lost Constellation, and it’s fantastic.
Without spoiling anything, not everyone in Dragon Age: Inquisition is who they seem. And if you delve into the game’s lore, things can get very, very interesting. Warning: if you haven’t beaten Dragon Age Inquisition, don’t read this post or watch the video! Those of you that have beat the game know that Solas is…
Under normal circumstances, sex in The Sims 4 is rather tame. You don’t really get to see anything, and instead of ‘sex,’ the game calls it ‘wohoo.’ But players are finding their own ways of making the game saucier—and the results are hilarious. Watch as PrettyGrumpyBear uses cheats to stage the most baffling ‘porn’ in…
Not gonna lie: watching this compilation video of amazing Captain Falcon plays made my pulse quicken. It’s just so hype! This video by EvenMatchupGaming highlights just how satisfying it is to watch a good Captain Falcon player. It’s not just that he has Falcon Punches, though those make for great moments too. Nearly everything about…
Destiny players are not fond of a gun called “No Land Beyond.” It’s easy to see why: not only does the gun do laughable damage, it also has a hilariously bad fire rate. It’s so notorious, players are advising each other not to buy the gun. And yet, one crazy player decided to brave Destiny’s…
On Christmas day, many gamers around the world found that they couldn’t play many of their favorite games anymore. The reason? The online services powering these games, such as PSN and Xbox Live, were down—and a group of alleged hackers claimed responsibility for it. Today, Xbox Live seems to mostly be up and running. PSN…
It’s hard to describe Five Nights at Fuckyboy’s 2. It’s not what you would call “good,” in the same way that 420BLAZEIT isn’t exactly “good.” But they are both hilarious and weird. The game takes the characters from Five Nights at Freddys, and puts them in a JRPG game where you battle party favors and…
Yup. That’s pretty much the entire experience, right there. Ferhod might be using the Heavy from Team Fortress in this video, but they manage to nail the hilarious spirit of Skyrim anyway. Amazing. Skyrim in a nutshell – SFM [Ferhod]
