They did it their way

Stranger of Paradise was a very different lens into the world of Final Fantasy than we’re accustomed to. Team Ninja and Koei Tecmo partnered with Square Enix to reimagine the story of the first Final Fantasy, creating a lovably irreverent protagonist with Jack Garland in the process.

If you’ve started compiling a collection of digital games, you probably already know just how limited the Switch’s base storage capacity.

Sizzle Season

In California, Sizzle Season is more commonly known as “The State is on Fire” Season

I’m not sure what happened between me and Splatoon, but spare time to play the game seemed to evaporate for me once the series made the move to Nintendo Switch. I still adore everything about this series. I just have a tough time making space in my schedule for it. Hopefully, I can find a way to turn that around with the start of Sizzle Season.
