AM2R Gets An Un-Official Update

Anyone who saw this ‘Metroid” game launch on Aug 6 knows that it was sealed up by Nintendo’s legal team soon after in an attempt to stop people from playing. But, ah…the power of the Internet! Links had been saved, shared and followed by that time, keeping AM2R alive! Tune in this episode to get an update on the game that’s sticking it to Nintendo and still being played by fans!

Important Addition For ‘Taekwondo Game Global Tournament’

If you’re interested in getting a quick fighting game fix, ‘Taekwondo Game Global Tournament’ might just be for you! And now that it’s received an official endorsement from the World Taekwondo Federation, those who love the sport will be glad to know it’s authentic. An update has just been released that adds something more to the gameplay that fans of the genre will appreciate! Rad has the scoop!

Niantic Is Talking, But Is Anyone Listening Anymore?

Niantic reports that Pokémon Go is as strong as ever, but maybe they just mean Asia? OK, seriously folks. The truth is, there has been a steady decline that no one, (not even Niantic) can ignore. Fans were waiting since launch for things to be fixed, explained and delivered as promised…..and it seems that the clumps of people wandering the streets have moved onto something else. Niantic is now attempting to explain why they shut down Pokémon Go maps and trackers and have even started unbanning some users. Our fearless, die-hard gamer podcast host Radnor will be discussing both of these announcements (and his theories, of course) during our episode.

 

In addition to these excellent news items, Rad will be talking about the exciting announcements from Square Enix ahead of the Tokyo Game Show, a pinball RPG Final Fantasy XV spin-off that’s available now, details on the ‘New Galaxy Style’ Nintendo 3DS XL, a special, limited-time mystery gift for owners of Pokémon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire’ or ‘Pokémon X/Y’, and a popular dev team that’s shutting down after 10 years together!

It’s all in this episode of Geekly Download!
