    Pokemon Y

    By turtlethetaffer | Review Date: Jan 11, 2014 | 3DS

    Another great entry, serving as a reminder of why we love Pokemon.

    The Pokemon games have certainly had a good run; Ever since the original Red and Blue were released in 1998, the series has been a JRPG juggernaut. Played by both young and old alike, each new game sells millions of cop... Read Full Review

    Scribblenauts Unlimited

    By turtlethetaffer | Review Date: Jan 11, 2014 | 3DS

    Decent enough for the desired audience, but lacking.

    Scribblenauts, released for the original Nintendo DS back in 2009, intrigued many gamers, including myself, with its unique premise; you can conjure up just about any object you can think of, provided it’s kid fri... Read Full Review

    The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

    By turtlethetaffer | Review Date: Jan 11, 2014 | 3DS

    Not quite a God send, but an interesting step for the series.

    A Link Between Worlds (ALBW) is the sequel to the much beloved, universally acclaimed Zelda game A Link to the Past (ALttP). And this game does, indeed start out similarly. Right from the get go, Link is told to deliver... Read Full Review

    The Darkness II

    By turtlethetaffer | Review Date: Jan 09, 2014 | X360

    As good as the first one, but in different ways.

    The original Darkness video game was a surprisingly great game; it featured slightly nonlinear exploration, a great cast of characters and good story, as well as some fun and unique gameplay, thanks to the powers given ... Read Full Review

    Shin Megami Tensei IV (Limited Edition)

    By turtlethetaffer | Review Date: Dec 21, 2013 | 3DS

    SMTIV is a terrific RPG that manages to overcome its flaws.

    Shin Megami Tensei IV begins with a truly surreal set up. Your character (a protagonist you can name yourself) has two different dreams. One about a man in a desert asking you to help him save the world, and another abo... Read Full Review

    Fire Emblem: Awakening

    By turtlethetaffer | Review Date: Nov 08, 2013 | 3DS

    Awakening is everything a handheld game should be.

    Fire Emblem: Awakening is the first game in the series for many, including myself. This is mostly because the series is almost notorious for its difficulty, and the previous games in the series are quite rare and, becau... Read Full Review

    It doesn't stand out like other games in the series, but Dream Team is still a fun Mario RPG.

    Mario and Luigi: Dream Team is the fourth entry in the popular RPG series. It started back on the GBA with the critically and commercially successful Superstar Saga. Since then, the other two games in the series, Partn... Read Full Review

    Kyokugen Dasshutsu ADV: Zennin Shiboudesu

    By turtlethetaffer | Review Date: Sep 11, 2013 | 3DS

    Virtue's Last Reward is a great follow- up to 999, even if it doesn't quite reach its lofty ambitions.

    Nine Hours, Nine Persons, Nine Doors was a rarity for the video game medium; it was a visual novel. In an era where games have become highly action oriented and focused on fulfilling power fantasies, 999 came along and ... Read Full Review

    Tales of the Abyss

    By turtlethetaffer | Review Date: Sep 02, 2013 | 3DS

    Like the cast, Tales of the abyss has some flaws but is too charming and fun for any RPG lover to ignore.

    Tales of the Abyss is a port from the Play Station 2, only updated with better loading times and 3D visuals. The game, a part of the somewhat popular Tales series from Namco, didn't receive a ton of attention due to its... Read Full Review
