Meet the latest Amiibo: Shovel Knight. An indie game character! Nice move, Nintendo. He’ll unlock extra stuff in the Wii U and 3DS versions of Shovel Knight.
Netflix on the Wii U now finally has the same UI as every other version of the service. Which means TV episodes will auto-play!
Everyone: “Hey, Snake, why do you ask so many questions?” Snake: “QUESTIONS?”

Alan Padziński, a professional instructor and sword performer from Poland, has (like me) been playing too much Witcher 3. Instead of endlessly writing about it on a website, though, he’s hit the woods and started working through his addiction with swords This video shows how to do Geralt’s special fast attack move, the “whirl”. Note…
When a company like Sony or Nintendo or Microsoft designs a console (or handheld), they have a few things to worry about, like keeping prices as low as possible while ensuring everything still works. But what if that wasn’t an obstacle for games hardware? What if they could be as beautiful as any other piece…
This is not how Nintendo handles fight scenes. I mean, for one, Nintendo would have written a better set-up than “golfing mishap”. But they also would have eased up on the “brutal action movie kicks to the face”. Zelda is Olivia Wells, Peach is Raven Duda
This is what it looks like when expert Smash Bros. players are at the helm. There’s a lot going on when someone’s playing a game at a high level, and it’s unlikely that you’re going to spend much time watching everything that’s happening with their hands. YouTube channel Beefy Smash Doods, however, has made visualizing…
Destiny, a video game about crushing the hopes and dreams of Peter Dinklage, is changing in just about every possible way when the next expansion launches this September. Even Nightfall strikes will be totally different. When The Taken King comes out on September 15, dying in a Nightfall will no longer kick your party back…
Spider: Rite of the Shrouded Moon contains a massive secret. The Steam/mobile game, in which you play as a spider bobbing and weaving through a mysteriously abandoned mansion, has a story that you, as a spider, are under no obligation to give a shit about. You as a person, however, can dig into all sorts…
Ah, the magic of config files. TheCircuitChaser wasn’t able to run the beta for Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 very well on his PC because it’s lacking the tweakable video settings that should be in the final game, so he decided to see how crappy he could make the game look. By digging into…
It’s not surprising to see people try to trick other players in Super Mario Maker. I just wasn’t expecting Nintendo to give anyone a helping hand in doing it. Hilariously, the “featured” tab in Mario Maker shows this right now: See that level by Kocobe, titled “All the costumes unlocked! :)? Well, that’s typically a…
Last night, Kotaku features editor Kirk Hamiltonplayed through a large chunk of Final Fantasy VI for the first time ever, making his way through the Battle of Narshe. When we last left off, Terra had just turned pink and flown into the sky. What could possibly happen next??? Tonight, in our second and most likely…
Twitch Plays Dark Souls continues to make steady progress, having just slain the particularly nasty Belfry Gargoyles. I may have argued they’re cheating atDark Souls, but it doesn’t make their newfound march through the game any less fun to watch.

I really enjoyed reading through Game Informer’s exhaustive summary of Destiny’s backstory and lore. I love a good lore recap, and I’ve recently gotten pretty into reading Destiny’s Grimore cards myself. Jaren Ward for president!
If you don’t play your cards right, lots of people can die in Until Dawn. One such gory finish has been censored in Japan. But rather than modify the game (or death) in any way, the screen just cuts to black while all the nastiness goes down. Waring: Spoilers ahoy! The YouTube channel Censored Gaming…
Hello, Internet! Welcome to Ask Dr. NerdLove, the only dating column that was born 500 years ago in the highlands of Scotland. This week, one NerdLove reader is dealing with a crush that is more complicated than your usual run of the mill interest in the cute girl you see at the comic store. What’s…
One artist brings Fallout to life using photo manipulation, and the results are fantastic—if not a little scary. Alfred Khamidullin recently shared some of his work online in a showcase of imagesthat take real-world scenes and mash them together with Fallout enemies, objects, and characters that we know, love, and sometimes fear. The Deathclaw above,…
