Damn, The Nintendo Switch Is Doing Well

Today, Nintendo released its financials for April to December 2019. One thing that sticks out is just how much of the company’s coffers are filled by the Switch.

Soccer Star Has Sweet Street Fighter Boots

Call Of Duty’s New Seasonal DLC Approach Needs Some Work

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare’s first “season” of content has been a solid offering of maps and modes, but it was held back by lackluster rewards and bugs.

Surreal point-and-click adventure game Kentucky Route Zerois out on consoles now.

Henry Cavill Breaks Down The Witcher’s Best Fight Scene

Because DVD commentary doesn’t exist in 2020, these videos Netflix are releasing to YouTube are (for now at least) about as close as we’re going to get to seeing the cast and crew talk about how The Witcher was actually made.

Japan is getting a new Monster Hunter game for phones next winter.
