Super Smash Bros – Games Asylum

Final smash! New, and final, Super Smash Bros. DLC due this Thursday

This Thursday sees the final dose of Super Smash Bros. add-on content arrive on the UK eShop, including Fire Emblem‘s Corrin and Bayonetta herself. Also: Tails and Knuckles attire. The final assortment before being bundled together to form a Nintendo NX launch title? Perhaps, if last weekâ€™s rumours...

Nintendo jumps on zombie bandwagon

After what seems like several quiet weeks, this Thursday sees the Nintendo eShop erupted with content – new games, new DLC, demos and a bunch of other stuff. Discounts too, but theyâ€™re yet another dreary assortment. Weâ€™re pretty sure Castle Conqueror EX goes on sale at least once...

UK chart sees Nintendo titles on the rise

With no new entries and GTA V holding the top spot for a second week running, this weekâ€™s UK chart isnâ€™t exactly a thrilling one. The fact that a handful of Nintendo titles have moved up the ranks hasnâ€™t escaped us, however. We put this down to last...

Chart success for The Crew

Sales of The Crew appear not to have harmed by a lack of reviews. Ubisoftâ€™s open-world racer is in at a respectable #6 in this weekâ€™s UK top 40. Eurogamer reports sales were split 59 per cent on PlayStation 4, 33 per cent on Xbox One, eight per...

Ka-ching! Thereâ€™s also Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth and WayForwardâ€™s apparently not too bad Adventure...

A big week for Nintendo

This week belongs to Nintendo. Not only do we have the biggest Wii U launch of the year – in the form of Super Smash Bros. – but also the eagerly anticipated PokÃ©mon Alpha Sapphire/Omega Ruby on 3DS. Super Smash Bros. for Wii U is due on the...

FIFA 15 fends off all competition

Last weekâ€™s trio of big name releases – Shadow of Mordor, Forza Horizon 2 and Super Smash Bros. – havenâ€™t been able to dislodge FIFA 15 from the top of the UK chart. They have however all managed to make the UK top five. Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor,...

Out this week: Middle-Earth: Shadow of Mordor, Forza Horizon 2, Super Smash Bros. and more

Itâ€™s October, and that means gamingâ€™s silly season is upon us. Dozens and dozens of new games all vying for your attention and, more importantly, money. No less than three big name releases are out this Friday, all of which will undoubtedly shake up next week’s UK top...

3DS Super Smash Bros. packs a wallop

Usually itâ€™s an anticipated download-only title that headlines Nintendoâ€™s weekly eShop schedule, but this week is slightly different – itâ€™s Super Smash Bros. on 3DS that leads the charge. That said, itâ€™s also something of a quiet week with just one other game and two Virtual Console releases...

E3: Nintendo’s fantastic plastic

It would appear that Nintendo called in the Robot Chicken chaps to create a handful of clips for their E3 digital event. We got to see a stop-motion Reggie fire laser-beams out of his eyes, Bowser and Peach argue over the last doughnut, and Little Mac expose the...
