My trip to the Nintendo Pop-up store in London was well worth it for these!

Rolled credits on Pokemon Legends Z-A last night and really had a blast! I’ve got quibbles for sure, but I was also reminded of why I love this series so much.

Also, love the customisation. If only I could pull this look off 😅

Ninsight is here! We’d like to thank everyone for their patience with this. After some unfortunate production delays, the magazine is now out in the wild, and we’d love to see your pics and hear your thoughts!

None of this is possible without all you amazing folks, and we hope you enjoy!

Loved The Roses, and can’t believe it took me so long to watch Fantastic Mr Fox. Of course I had to rewatch the Mario movie in honour of the 40th anniversary, but Honey Don’t was a big disappointment. Was just all over the place and then kinda just ended. #LastFourWatched

Plenty of entertaining films this last week, but The Life of Chuck was something else. Gonna need some rewatches, but it’s already up there as one of my favourites.

Ziff Davis and IGN routinely decide that work done by our laid off colleagues is not important. But inevitably, that crucial work falls onto those who remain.

Not this time. Not anymore.

What is Ninsight? After 69 issues (before reforming for another 5) and 8 issues of Ninty Fresh, we called time on both. Dreaming of something bigger and more glorious, we toiled away behind the scenes...

At least having the Gamescom show on wasn’t a complete waste of time.

Seriously though, can the soulslike genre just go away forever now. Or at the very least try being something other than some gothic horror blood fest.

Lego Batman looks so goooooood!

Some really great films this week! I think Stand By Me will stick with me a while, and has me even more excited to see Life of Chuck when it finally releases here next week!

A day playing arcade games with friends, ending with the purchase of Mario Kart Lego. Definitely call this a good (unexpectedly expensive 😅) Saturday!

P.S. Those dancing games on high difficulty are a hell of a workout 😂

Physical Media Is Cool Again. Streaming Services Have Themselves to Blame

Collectors new and old tell Rolling Stone there's nothing quite like the feel of holding your favorite art in your hands.

Got a birthday card that said to spend the day in my happy place. So naturally I spent the day in the cinema. Four films, one day, fun times.

Ochi was the only disappointment, and I can’t believe I took so long to watch Asteroid City. Overall a pretty solid run! #LastFourWatched

Of all the films I watched today, The Naked Gunn was by far the best! Joke after joke hitting hard, tonnes of sight gags that I’m sure would benefit a 2nd viewing, and everyone involved just clearly having a great time making something so fun!
August 1, 2025 at 4:08 PM
Birthday means a full day at the cinema! Got Friendship, The Legend of Ochi, and The Naked Gun all lined up 😁

Nothing too crazy this week. A couple short films that were cute but not much more.

The comedy in Spaceballs just really didn’t land for me, but there were parts I appreciated.

Loved Fantastic 4 though! Very heartfelt, and a promising effort from Marvel. #LastFourWatched #LetterboxdFriday
