The Mario Kart 8 Weekend Spectacular

A big game is available from May 30th. A huge game. A game about fierce rivalries, marksmanship, tight control, blue spikey devils and underage driving. That game is Mario Kart 8. I know what you’re thinking, ‘but that’s a Wii U game! You’re 3DS groups!’ But what are we all if not Nintendo gamers? StreetPass […]

Scythe and Teacup – MHCUK Liverpool Hunting Hall

Report by James Bowden I find something quite apt about an afternoon of Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate in a venue called ‘The Scythe and Teacup’.

An English StreetPasser in Paris

By James Bowden (StreetPass Manchester) A few weeks ago I and my better half took a trip to Paris. The 3DS’ were confirmed to be coming with, obviously – a plane trip to and fro offers a window for some perfect, uninterrupted play (defending accused witches being my personal selection for the trip), and Parisian StreetPasses were […]
