Goosebumps: Dead of Night - Official Reveal Trailer
https://youtube.com/watch?v=2r6wbD8m_oQ0 -
Now that Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition has cleared the runway, it's time for this lady to step forth from the shadows.
I think Metroid Prime Trilogy is next for take-off. Nintendo even gave us the hint in the Paper Mario: The Origami King trailer.
With E3 cancelled, Nintendo don't have to wait for 9th June. It can be dropped at any time prior(or after, but that's unlikely). This week and Wednesday is as good a day as any for the announcement. I'll be curious to see how much effort they've put into it, if they've added anything and its price.
Plus, there's so many rumours about its imminent release, they can't all be wrong.

The Academy: The First Riddle - Release Date Announcement Trailer
https://youtube.com/watch?v=iYtz_DXiFpMDeveloper Pine Studio, the company behind the well-received Faraway puzzle adventure series, has announced that its latest Harry Potter and Professor Layton-inspired title, “The Academy: The First Riddle,” will launch June 19 on PC and Mac via Steam, the App Store and Google Play. The game will arrive to Playstation 4, Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch later this summer.
“We’re huge fans of the Professor Layton series and its colorful puzzles,” says Pine Studio’s Boris Barbir. “We wanted to make a game that would allow players on all platforms to experience that thrill of getting a puzzle just right. We are big fans of Harry Potter, so the school is greatly inspired by Hogwarts, but it’s also inspired by the architecture of our city, Zagreb. Early on in development, it became clear that what we actually set off to achieve was to capture the essence of being a kid - the feeling that adventure lies around every corner.”
The game will place players in the shoes of Sam, a freshman at Arbor’s famed, yet mysterious, Academy. Over the course of this roughly 20-hour adventure, fans will sink their teeth into over 200 puzzles and riddles scattered across the campus. The puzzles will guide the players through the central story of the game and the mystery looming over the school. When fans aren’t busy unraveling the school’s past, they’ll be able to engage in a host of fun activities with an array of memorable characters.
The Academy: The First Riddle will launch June 19 on PC and Mac via Steam for $19.99, on Google Play, and the App Store for $9.99. The title will arrive to Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and Nintendo Switch later this summer.0 -
The Outer Worlds Switch Review: Ambitious But Ultimately Not Good Enough
https://youtube.com/watch?v=ZRWp5_FBvOs
The Switch version is hideous by comparison and once it's been seen, it cannot be unseen. It is sooo stripped back and still runs poorly. Add to this the Switch physical version costing around €20 more and a day one 6GB download patch, it's bad all round. Digital Foundry aren't impressed either.0 -
