Do I regret my time with Devil’s Third? Yes I do. I have spent a great number of hours over the last few weeks forcing myself to play and write about this game, and honestly I have taken very little enjoyment from it all. But can I recommend Devil’s Third to anybody else? No, I can’t. If you have any other console or PC for gaming, you have so many better options in the online shooter genre to choose from that there is no good reason to give this one any of your time.

FAST Racing Neo is easily a must own title for the Wii U, and arguably one of the best 3rd party games on the system.

If you love Picross but don’t want to spend over $32 for the full experience, check the Picross e series which are from the same developer. Each of the six titles cost $5.99, and you will have a bigger and better experience for around the same price.

Overall, Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon is an excellent spin-off title for the Pokemon franchise, one that proves that “children’s” games do not always have to be incredibly easy, do not have to always contain a terrible story, and can have an excellent soundtrack (yes, the music is really, really good)

Dementium Remastered is a great addition to the eShop, and shows the higher polished side of things that are available on it. The game packs quite a punch in terms of presentation, and the gameplay is mostly there to match it. If you are a fan of horror games or FPS games, then this is a game that you should check out this holiday season.

That is because ultimately, in what the game tries to do, it succeeds completely: it creates an incredible, breathtaking, awe-inspiring world that is an absolute joy to run around in, to fight in, to collect in, to look around in, to be in. It may not have done so flawlessly, but Xenoblade Chronicles X gave me one of the finest worlds gaming has to offer, and it populated that world with incredible things to do.

In the end, Ascent of Kings is a neat little love letter to retro adventure-platformers. It’s simplified use of the Metroidvania-style will give newcomers a decent crash course to the genre, allowing for deeper experiences to be better enjoyed in the future.Just because it’s simplified, doesn’t mean that it’s a simple game, mind you. After all, you are trying to become the new King; of course it won’t be simple.

Just because it’s simplified, doesn’t mean that it’s a simple game, mind you. After all, you are trying to become the new King; of course it won’t be simple. That’s what makes this title so charming. With its pleasant visuals and nice soundtrack to back it up, Nostatic Software has cooked up a nice little retro adventure that’s definitely worth the more than generous $1.99 price-tag.

All in all, Toto Temple Deluxe is a game you buy if you have friends to play it with. Solo, it can be no more than a brief distraction, but with friends it becomes an exciting brawl-fest. Solid modes and an impressive number of stages makes sure this multiplayer title is one to check out.

It’s a budget retail release at $39.99, but with the stellar Wii U lineup of family friendly first party titles, it’s hard to recommend this game as a purchase. If you have a kid that’s an extreme Barbie fan, this may be worth a look, but other than that I’d leave Barbie and Her Sisters: Puppy Rescue in the kennel.
