Dipmin.
It’s Friday. It’s warm. It’s the perfect weather to soak in a nice, cool bath with a cold drink and a bath bomb. Thank goodness there are Pikmin bath bombs then, right?

Say goodbye to ‘The Lost Child’ & ‘God Wars’.
We’ve already seen the 3DS eShop closure wipe out a lot of digital titles earlier this year, and now game publisher NIS America has announced it will be removing two games from the Switch eShop in the coming weeks and months.
