Nashville, TN – Sep 2, 2024 – Hard to believe we’re well into the summer but Nintendo gave us some great games to look forward to in their June Nintendo Direct. Maybe the biggest trailer of the showcase was the first time seeing Metroid Prime 4 since it was announced with a logo back in 2017. We also saw some other major first party announcements in Mario & Luigi Brothership and The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom. Jemma, Kirk, Trev and myself dive into each of the big games featured in the Direct. It looks like Nintendo still has plenty in store for the Switch as it rounds out its final year. We have some more great reviews for Limited Run Press books, some retro pieces as well and this issue is chalk full of reviews for some truly stand-out games. Oh, and be sure to check out our thoughts on the launch lineup for the Switch successor which is now officially confirmed to be announced before April 1, 2025. Stay safe and, as always, we have pixel puzzles, reviews, and more packed into each page! Happy Gaming!
