2018 Preview: Nintendo

Video Games

This week on the show, we are still climbing aboard the HYPE TRAIN for the upcoming releases for this year! We are going to spend the next few episodes taking you through the video games that we are most excited about releasing in the next 12 months, including PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PC and multi platform titles.

Next up, it’s all about Nintendo games! That’s right, video games that will be releasing on the Nintendo Switch and even the handheld Nintendo 3DS. There are some rumours that we address in this episode for games that may or may nor come out, but we definitely focus on the ones we know are likely to come out, from big AAA titles like Mario Tennis Aces, Yoshi and Nintendo Labo, fro more titles we know little about yet such as Pokemon Switch and Fire Emblem Swtich! With not a lot of releases planned, what other goodies could the big N have up their sleeve?

Join Luke, Cam, Rachel, Kieren and Jake to hear their thoughts on what is sure to be a big year, along with the news of the week PLUS Kieren’s review of over-the-top anime fighter, Dragon Ball FighterZ!

For all the latest updates as always, head to our official website at checkpointgaming.net.
