Ho, ho, ho! Ah yes, the weekend. Not just any ol' weekend either! No, it's the weekend before Christmas, which means it's time to start preparing your stomachs for an avalanche of food and chocolate.

There's a lot more to ten-pin bowling than meets the eye. What to most people is something you do while half-cut during a boozy night-out or take your kids to for a birthday hides a chilling secret: it's actually a very complex sport. Video games have generally treated bowling as the former, though - that's why the greatest-ever bowling game is one that is played with extremely broad motion controls and requires gleefully little thought.

Good news, Daemon x Machina fans. One game that you might have missed in the earlier months of the Switch 2's lifecycle was Daemon x Machina: Titanic Scion. Although it was a bit clunky in some parts, it's still a decently deep mech combat experience. The game also got an eShop demo, and a roadmap was announced in September. Since then, it's been updated multiple times with new content. Now, Marvelous and First Studio have rolled out updates 1.2.1 and 1.2.2. These updates add new bosses and a wh...

"Who do you spend the holidays with?". Although Nintendo ended Splatoon 3's "regular updates" some time ago now, it's been revived this year with the release of a free Switch 2 update and some major game patches. Now, as 2025 comes to a close, the return of Frosty Fest has been announced. This time the question is: Who do you spend the holidays with? Is it with your friends, family or solo?

Arriving with a bang in 1999 as a free-to-play virtual browser game where you look after digital pets, it exploded in popularity, spawning merchandise, toys, video games, trading cards, and more. It's still pretty massive today, even!
