As #MAR10 Mario Day approaches we discuss all the Mario titles that will likely be coming to Switch 2 as we continue counting down to the #NintendoSwitch2 #NintendoDirect! Hard to believe we are now less than a month away from that Direct! I can't wait!! youtu.be/CGQRJaYyV-c

I loved the premiere of #DaredevilBornAgain but I can't believe what they have chosen to do here! I'm not going to spoil anything but I genuinely think this was a huge mistake and will affect the show massively going forward... ... why would you choose to film a TV show in widescreen format?!

I love the look of #PokemonLegendsZA!! I think having one giant city to explore will give it a nice and unique feel to other Pokemon games and that new battle system is really interesting, I've wanted them to try something like that for ages! Definitely can't wait for it's release!

Happy #PokemonDay!!! Pokemon has been a huge part of my gaming life since the very beginning. From Red to Violet and every gen in between (plus spin offs) I've loved them all! Looking forward to the Presents in just over an hour and, hopefully, our first proper look at Legends Z-A!

Only 5 weeks to go until the #NintendoSwitch2 #NintendoDirect!!! This week I talk about all the Nintendo titles I wont be giving their own video such as Animal Crossing, Luigi's Mansion, Xenoblade, Splatoon, F-Zero, Star Fox, Kirby and more!! youtu.be/GJRBSI7k-vw

Unfortunately real life stuff has got in the way and so I won't be doing a video this week but will be back next week to talk about all the other Nintendo games we could see come to Switch 2! Catch up on my videos so far with this playlist: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

I'm only free for one of the Elden Ring Nightreign test periods... so naturally I am aiming to play for the full 3 hours! Let's hope the servers work!!!

Only 7 Weeks to go until the Nintendo Switch 2 Direct!! In this video we talk about what we might get from Super Smash Bros on Switch 2. Come for Smash Bros discussion, stay for the chill Smash Bros music, leave because I "Umm" and "err" all the time! www.youtube.com/watch?v=pDnT...

Loads of great looking games in that #StateOfPlay! I'm most looking forward to Shinobi, Sonic Racing, Hell is Us and Saros! Really like the look of Lost Soul Aside too but am a little cautious on it... plus it's releasing the same day as Elden Ring: Nightreign 😬

#GhostOfTsushima is an utterly, ridiculously gorgeous game! All of these shots were taken with just minor camera position adjustments in photo mode (or for the third image, not even in photo mode at all). It's the only game I've played where I don't run at max speed the whole time I'm playing!

Week 3 of my countdown to #NintendoSwitch2! This week we're discussing how #TheLegendofZelda will make it's mark on Switch 2; When will we get the first game on the system? What will it be? Will we ever see a traditional Zelda game again?! Let me know what you think! www.youtube.com/watch?v=DORi...

About to go live continuing my first playthrough of Silent Hill 2! I just reached the hospital last time so we'll see what that has in store for me. Is Maria a constant companion now? What's the deal with the little girl? And how many more times will I hit Triangle by accident? twitch.tv/matmania

Watch me ramble on about #MarioKart for 15 minutes continuing my countdown to #NintendoSwitch2! www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qAt...

I put out a YouTube video! Starting a series counting down to #NintendoSwitch2 initially with a countdown to the #NintendoDirect where I'll focus on a different Switch 2 topic each week! Honestly, the video's got some issues but I hope to improve them as we go! www.youtube.com/watch?v=0mzx...

What's the problem with Doom Scrolling anyway? I know I'm going to be doing a lot of it in the run up to May 15th #DoomTheDarkAges

Really enjoyed the #XboxDeveloper_Direct last night!! I'm interested in every game shown and they have had a great segment that showed off why their game is special. The format of the show is awesome and wish we got more shows like it throughout the year and from other publishers!

Insomniac Games have been a huge part of my gaming life from playing Spyro on PS1 to Ratchet & Clank across PS2 and 3 and now the Spider-Man games on PS4 and 5 and Ted Price has been a huge part of the studios journey that whole time. Enjoy the retirement Ted, you've earned it!

Ok, I've had a change of opinion on something... Metroid Prime 4 should be a launch title for Switch 2! Now that we can presume that the new Mario Kart is a launch title I think it just makes sense. MK will be super fun and basically everyone will buy it...

I love the look of the Switch 2! The little minimalist splashes of colour on the joy-cons look really nice and stand out nicely against the grey. The overall look, while very "Switch 1" also just looks *nice*. I hope the magnets make it feel solid in the hands too!

Alright, Switch 2 is revealed now and I'm claiming this Nintendo generation to be the one I break into the gaming industry... in some way. Going to be putting as much of my free time as possible into it as it just feels like the right direction for me.
