Back in 2022, Nintendo attempted to revive the fun and charm of the motion-controlled Wii Sports era, but it didn’t quite live up to that lofty goal. Now in 2026, Nintendo Switch Sports Resort takes another swing at that same difficult feat with a clear focus on “more.” More sports, more outfits, more modes, and more collectibles. That doesn't always translate to a better package, with Sports Resort often feeling a wide ocean rather than a deep diving pool, but it more than makes up for it with a broad range of games ripe to bust out at the next big party. So while it may not clear the high bar set by the original Wii Sports in 2006, it still brings out the same child-like joy. Nintendo Switch Sports Resort is a collection of 12 different sports minigames, ranging from highly competitive one-on-one Table Tennis to leisurely cruising in a prop plane around Wuhu Island where they all take place. The quality of each game varies drastically.

The First Kingdom Hearts Featured Final Fantasy In A Way I Wish The Series Would Again
A couple of posts back in Guiding Key, Kotaku’s year-long Kingdom Hearts replay book club, I said that Kingdom Hearts was my first foray into Final Fantasy. I was young enough at the time that I didn’t even realize this series was meant to be a crossover between Disney and Final Fantasy until I opened up Jiminy Cricket’s journal and saw those characters listed as having originated from an RPG series I only really knew from the Final Fantasy X commercial that would play on the TV sometimes. Now that I’m an adult and have played a great deal of Final Fantasy games, it’s fascinating watching Kingdom Hearts’ opening hours with full knowledge of who these characters are as they interact with Donald, Goofy, and of course our hero Sora, who exists in between Disney’s light-hearted, family friendly vibes and Final Fantasy’s emotional highs and lows. The opening segments set in Sora’s home on Destiny Islands and in Traverse Town, the place that has essentially become a safe haven for people whose worlds are disappearing, probably best reflect what Final Fantasy fans were hoping the series would be in terms of its crossover potential.
This Love And Deepspace / Blade Runner 2049 Event Is Either An Unfortunate Coincidence Or An Elaborate Troll
Love And Deepspace, the mobile game that serves players sweet, romantic, and sometimes horny fantasies featuring five hunks of grade-A quality man, hasn’t wholly recovered from the social and economic battering it took when the developers released, then un-released its sixth love-interest, Valko. His fiercely loyal cadre of fans have dug in their heels, remaining committed to not spending a dime on the gacha game until he is re-released. Each new event brings hope it will be The One and while that hasn’t happened yet, this latest event seems to be actively making things worse. New in Love and Deepspace is a crossover event with Blade Runner 2049, Denis Villenueve’s 2017 follow-up to Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner. I can’t really tell why LADS is featuring an event tied to a Totally Fine But Otherwise Didn’t Really Need To Be Made sequel to one of the greatest sci-fi movies ever made, unless maybe this is some circuitous attempt to remind people there’s an Amazon TV show set in the Blade Runner universe coming next month. But some of the game’s messaging around the event is rubbing Valko fans the wrong way. What you touch—is it real?
