Oh...Sir! The Insult Simulator & The Hollywood Roast - Nintendo Switch (Review)


Oh...Sir! The Insult Simulator & The Hollywood Roast (Switch(reviewed), Steam, iOS, Android)
Developer: Vile Monarch
Publisher: Gambitious
Price: $1.99, $2.99


Mr. J. Shufflebottom was walking by the lake when he came across a dead body beneath a tree.   Mrs. Maggie was standing next to it, and Mr. Shufflebottom immediately began questioning her as to why she murdered the man.  She denied it, and he decided to get her to confess by wearing her down by hurling insults at her.

"Your wife has worse hair than you and goes around murdering people!"

"Your face probably murdered your husband!"

Meanwhile, in Hollywood, Dirty Potter confronted Jane Blunt in a casino for stealing his chips. 

"Your last plastic surgery was ruined by your iconic costume and peruses manga, and I mean that in the nicest way!"

"Your red carpet dress will have to face a shorter version of Benedict Cumberbatch!"

Nintendo Download 3/16 - Little Goo Machine


A few more games are out on the Switch today, including my Wii U eShop GOTY from 2012!  Along with that title, Human Resource Machine, World of Goo, Binding of Isaac, and King of Fighters 94 are all making their way to a system that is seemingly harder to find than the Holy Grail.

There are also some new titles on Wii U and 3DS, but no one cares about those, right?

Check out the full press release below.

Nintendo Direct February 13


Today's Nintendo Direct started out with a bang.  Or I guess a blamm.  Right off the bat, we got conformation that Little Mac will be one of the new characters in Super Smash Bros.  We were also told that the game would be out this year for both the Wii U and the 3DS.

Other highlights from the Nintendo Direct:
  • Mario Kart 8 (Wii U) comes out on May 30
  • Mario Golf: World Tour (3DS) and Kirby Triple Deluxe (3DS) both release on May 2
  • Yoshi's New Island (3DS) releases March 14
  • Steel Diver Sub Wars (3DS) is a FPS version of the Steel Diver series. You can get a free version or a paid version with more subs and single player.  Available now.
  • Rusty's Real Deal Baseball (3DS) comes out in April. You have to buy each mini-game separate, but you can actually haggle over the prices of the games, and buy them at a lower price.  Sounds weird. 
  • Pokemon Battle Trozei (3DS) comes out March 20
  • Professor Layton and the Azran Legacy (3DS) is out February 28
  • Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate (3DS) comes out in early 2015 (SO FAR AWAY)
  • NES Remix 2 (Wii U) comes out April 25
  • We also got a look at Bayonetta 2 (Wii U) and X (Wii U)

You can check out the entire Nintendo Direct below.

The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition Free Until Feb. 2

The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition

Did you buy your Nintendo 3DS any time after February 20, 2012?  If so, you missed out on a good freebie: The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition.  The game was released as free DSiWare (and also through the eShop) for the twenty-fifth anniversary of The Legend of Zelda.  And on February 21, the day after the anniversary year had ended, the game was no longer available.

Gamers have since been angry with the fact that Nintendo has not made the title available for purchase.  And who can blame them?  They were missing out on a fun multiplayer Zelda game. 

Now, if you are one of those people who have been longing to get a copy of the game, your wait is over.  Nintendo has re-released the game onto the eShop, and it is free of charge until February 2.  Better hurry and download it while you can, because we have no idea if you will ever get the chance to acquire this game again.

Thanks to Fanceypants for pointing this one out to us!

Nintendo Download 6/20/13 - Farming Simulator 3D!

Farming Simulator 3dFarming Simulator 3d

Today is an exciting day for 3DS owners in America, because now we can finally download Farming Simulator 3D!  I can't think of a better game to download on the last day of spring than Farming Simulator 3D.

Other releases include Mega Man 6, Tails Adventure, BUGS vs. TANKS!, Game & Wario, and Project X Zone. Little Inferno and Super Little Acorns 3D Turbo are the two latest titles to have a sale price.  Oh, and there is also something having to do with Luigi and DLC... I don't know.  You can read the full list after the break.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf: Life in Tamarin

My first few days in Animal Crossing: New Leaf have turned me into a slasher movie psycho.  Let me bring you up to speed:

I moved in to Tamarin a few days ago, and was instantly named Mayor.  Like a tool, I forgot to get a picture of any part of the ceremony, but I did get a snapshot of the train bringing me into town.

Nintendo Direct: E3 2013 - Mega Man Edition

If you missed this morning's Nintendo E3 Direct, you can watch the full thing right here.


If you don't have forty minutes to kill, here are the highlights: Mega Man in Smash Bros., Wind Waker HD in October, Super Mario 3D World on Wii U this Fall, and Mario Kart 8 has anti-gravity.

Nothing majorly surprising outside of Mega Man, but everything they showed looked good.

Nintendo Direct - May 17 2013


Today's Nintendo Direct was focused around games coming out this Spring and Summer.  However, there were a few SEGA related announcements, including a new Nintendo exclusive Sonic game, a new Mario and Sonic at the Olympics, and a boatload of new Game Gear titles coming to the 3DS.

This is followed up by some 3DS news, like the fact that for the first three weeks after release, the two Legend of Zelda Oracle games will be on sale for $4.99 each, so you can get both games for a bit under $10.

Capcom Releasing DuckTales and Dungeons & Dragons This Summer!

DuckTales Remastered

The part of my brain that controls how happy I am is currently on overload.  Capcom has announced that they are bringing DuckTales Remastered and the two Dungeons & Dragons arcade games (under the name DUNGEONS & DRAGONS: CHRONICLES OF MYSTARA) to Xbox Live, PlayStation Network, Nintendo eShop, and PCs this summer. 


I have always been a fan of all three games, but holy cow, look at the DuckTales game!  It is being made by WayForward and looks completely amazing!


It's like Paper Mario leaked into Disney!

Make sure to check the press release for all of the details!

Zen Pinball 2 Finally Comes to Wii U March 21

Zen Pinball 2 arrives on Wii U March 21
FINALLY!
 The wait for this game has been nearly unbearable!  Since being announced so many months ago, Zen Pinball 2 has been one of my most anticipated releases for the Wii U.  With the title finally releasing next week, that wait is nearly over.  I absolutely love the two titles on the Nintendo 3DS (after all, I did name Marvel Pinball 3D as my 3DS eShop GotY), but I have missed playing the majority of the tables I used to have on the Xbox 360.  Being able to play the Epic Quest, Paranormal, Plants Vs. Zombies, and Wolverine tables again has a real pants-tightening effect on me.

All that is needed now is an announcement for the Star Wars tables and some Nintendo-themed tables, and everything would be perfect.

Legend of Zelda: Oracle Games Coming to 3DS

of Zelda Oracle of Ages and Seasons Coming to 3DS Virtual Console

Earlier this morning, Nintendo had another Nintendo Direct presentation.  This one focused on Japan and 3DS titles from third party publishers.  During the video, Nintendo announced that The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Oracle of Seasons will be coming to the 3DS Virtual Console next week. 

And next month, the games will be sold in a bundle for four dollars cheaper.  I'm really hoping these both come to the US soon, and also that I have the patience to wait to see if we get the same bundle deal.

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Fighting on the Wii U and 3DS March 19

Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Wii U English Box Art

Monster Hunter fans rejoice, for Capcom has revealed to us a release date.  Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate will fins its way to store shelves and the eShop on March 19 here in North America.  That is for both the Wii U and the 3DS.  If you live in the UK, you only have to wait three extra days.

And if you've never played a Monster Hunter game, and you want to see what all of the fuss is about (or you just need your fix a little earlier), a demo for the game on both systems will be available to download on February 21.

Check out the new trailer after the jump.

Nintendo Download - Nov. 8

Paper Mario: Sticker Star 3DS

Compared to last week, Nintendo's offerings are a bit better. I'm still torn on where to count Freakyforms Deluxe and Paper Mario: Sticker Star though, because they are released on Sunday.  I think we have to say that Freakyforms Deluxe was released this week, and Paper Mario: Sticker Star is released next week.  That's okay though, because that just means there is at least one good game coming out next week.  Even though it is included in this week's download list.  It's so confusing.

Aside from the digital versions of retail releases, we also got a NEO-GEO game on the Wii Virtual Console this week!  Nothing else for the Wii though.  On the DSi/3DS side of things, we got the crazy priced Pokedex 3D Pro ($15!!!!), four other new releases today, plus a demo of Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion.  And, of course, Paper Mario: Sticker Star is out on Sunday.  Hit the jump for the full list!

Nintendo Download - Nov. 1

Freaky Forms Deluxe for Nintendo 3DS

It's the first day of the new month, and after how good things were last week, this week's digital released from Nintendo seem a little weak. There is a whopping total of three titles that were released today, a demo, and an announcement of an upcoming release for this Sunday. And absolutely nothing for the Wii, although that should come as no surprise with the forthcoming Wii U launch.

Check out the full (~snicker~) release list after the jump! Nintendo eShop
