I know. Big surprise. Nintendo focusing one of their consoles toward kids? Before Captain Obvious swoops down out of the sky to punch me in the eye, know that Nintendo saw a barrier at the previous price point of $249, and now they’re hoping this end-of-year shopping season will show a change in the current age ratio of system users.

The trailer is kind of amusing though This newOverlord: Fellowship of Eviltrailer highlights some of the co-operative elements of the game, as well as the trolly “kill each other” mechanics similar toMagicka.

Codemasters notes that it will be just as fun solo as with a team, but we’ll have to wait and see....

Don’t you, forget about it Normally, when we’re talking about gaming, November is the month to beat. This is when most, if not all, of the heavy hitters of the industry release, trying to get as much of that holiday cash as possible. That’s a normal year, but the second half of 2018 is anything but normal because ofRed Dead Redemption 2. The oft-delayed western is an absolute monster. It already scared this year’sCall of Dutyout of its normal release period and now I can’t help but think more titles are trying to get out the door before it drops at the end of the October....
