Polara | REVIEW


Posted on September 24, 2016 by Jason Nason

I’ve played my share of runners with most of them being the endless variety. You run and run, avoiding enemies or other obstacles until you eventually fall.

Nintendo Dropping EU Retail Orders For The Wii U Should Be Cause For Concern


Posted on September 23, 2016 by Rae Michelle Richards

Wii U Production Stop
Word came out earlier today that retailers in the European Union have until the end of this month – just 7 days from now – to get their final orders in for Wii U hardware.
