“Hello Kitty Kruisers” for Nintendo Switch Review

Hello Kitty Kruisers

Though “Hello Kitty Kruisers” isn’t the best kart racing game out there, it does have some appeal for certain fans and is a worthwhile game for children and certain older Hello Kitty fans.

“Hello Kitty Kruisers” for Nintendo Switch Review

Hello Kitty Kruisers is a kart racing game that was originally released for Wii U in 2014, and was recently ported to the Nintendo Switch. For what it is, Hello Kitty Kruisers isn’t a terrible game, as long as you don’t come to it with inflated expectations of it being the next Mario Kart. This is a game that is clearly targeted at young children and was likely developed with a very limited budget. The game is simplistic and has a few noticeable bugs. That said, it is still a charming kart racer and provides some entertainment value for young children, as well as older fans of Hello Kitty.

Nintendo Should Make a “Pokémon”/”Style Savvy” Crossover Game

Style Savvy Meets Pokemon

Nintendo should make a “Pokémon”/”Style Savvy” crossover game for Nintendo Switch. Many fans would love a fashion-themes “Pokémon” spin-off game, and “Style Savvy” is the best-rated dress up game series out there. Both series are staples of the Nintendo handheld game library.

Nintendo Should Make a “Pokémon”/”Style Savvy” Crossover Game

Pokémon is one of the most popular and successful video game franchises in video game history. In addition to the main core role-playing games in the series, there have been numerous spin-off games over the years, including puzzle games, fighting games, art games, and pinball games. Because of its immense popularity, Nintendo can add Pokémon characters to practically anything type of game and it will sell well.

Style Savvy (also known as Nintendo presents: Style Boutique in the PAL region and as Wagamama Fashion: Girls Mode in Japan) is another series for Nintendo handheld consoles that is popular within certain demographics of the gaming community. Though many gamers who haven’t played any games in the series assume it is nothing more than a vapid shovelware title, due to the series’ focus on fashion, it is a fun, solid game that many gamers who actually have given it a chance greatly enjoy.

Nintendo could reach a lot of new fans and pull them into the Style Savvy franchise by having Game Freak and Syn Sophia team up to create a crossover between Pokémon and Style Savvy for the Nintendo Switch. There are already numerous elements in the Pokémon series that would easily translate into the Style Savvy play style. This crossover game would feature Pokémon characters and focus mainly on the fashion and dress up aspects of the Pokémon universe.

How to Keep Pets Safe During 4th of July Fireworks

How to Keep Pets Safe During Fireworks

Many pets are afraid of fireworks and cats and dogs are more likely to run away or go missing on the 4th of July than any other time of the year. If you are proactive, you can keep your pet safe and calm during the annual fireworks displays.

How to Keep Pets Safe During 4th of July Fireworks

Like most Americans, you have probably been looking forward to summer and the upcoming 4th of July festivities throughout the week of Independence Day. While you are out celebrating with fireworks, barbecues, and beer with your friends and family, it is important not to forget about your furry friends at home. The 4th of July can be an especially scary and dangerous time for cats, dogs, and other pets. Animals don’t understand what is going on when they hear fireworks going off outside, so they can become anxious and afraid. If they are able to get outside, they are likely to get spooked by the sounds of explosions and run away. Each year in the United States, July 5th is the busiest day for animal shelters, as an abundance of runaway pets are found roaming the streets and brought in.

To lessen the chance of harm coming to your furry friends, it is important to take some simple steps to reduce the likelihood that your dogs, cats, or other pets are able to run away during fireworks or be otherwise traumatized or harmed as a result of the 4th of July celebrations:

  1. Keep your pets inside.
  2. Keep ID tags and microchip information up to date.
  3. Make sure your house is safe and comfortable.

Brenda Howard: Bisexual Activist and The Mother of Pride

Brenda Howard: The Mother of Pride

In celebration of Pride Month, here is an article I wrote about Brenda Howard, who is widely regarded as the “Mother of Pride,” who was bisexual. Though many bi people feel like they don’t belong at Pride celebrations, Pride as we know it today was the idea of a bi activist named Brenda Howard.

Brenda Howard: Bisexual Activist and The Mother of Pride

Of course Pride is for bi people! Though many LGBT+ people may not realize it, Pride was first invented by a bi woman named Brenda Howard.

Though bi people often feel invisible or marginalized at Pride month celebrations, and within the LGBT+ community overall, the LGBT+ community owes its bi members credit for the existence of Pride celebrations as we know them today. Without one bi woman in particular, we wouldn’t have Pride Month or Pride parades. Brenda Howard, a bi, polyamorous LGBT+ activist is known as the “Mother of Pride,” and for good reason.

Supernatural Explanations for the Mothman Phenomenon

Supernatural Explanations for Mothman Encounters and Sightings

Could sightings of the legendary Mothman be explained by other supernatural phenomenon? Some theorists believe that Mothman may be linked to other paranormal or otherworldly entities and phenomena.

Supernatural Explanations for the Mothman Phenomenon

Mothman is one of the best-known cryptids in North America. This crytozoological creature first gained notoriety after many residents of the small town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia first encountered it in the mid-1960s. Mothman is generally described as a large, winged creature who stands over six-feet tall, with a wingspan of six to ten feet across, terrifying red glowing eyes, and an owl-like body covered in gray or black feathers or fur.

Mothman is often though of as a portent of impending doom and tragedy. This cryptid is most famously associated with the tragic collapse of the Silver Bridge across the Ohio River near Point Pleasant, West Virginia. 46 people were killed in the collapse of the bridge in 1967. Sightings of the Mothman have waned since the late 1960s after culminating in the bridge collapse tragedy, but there have been some reported sightings of the creature throughout the years in Point Pleasant and surrounding areas since the initial wave of sightings in West Virginia in the mid-1960s.

Does Mothman actually exist, or could the encounters with this creature be the result of other natural, man-made, or perhaps even supernatural phenomenon?

Mothman is most often associated with Point Pleasant, West Virginia. However, many Ohioans have also encountered the cryptid creature in their own backyard throughout the years, ever since the famed Silver Bridge collapse in the 1960s.

Mothman Sightings and Encounters in Ohio

Mothman is a cryptid—or paranormal creature—most often associated with the small town of Point Pleasant, West Virginia, located along the banks of the Ohio River. Mothman is usually described as a large monster standing over six feet tall, with wings six to ten feet across, menacing red eyes, and a body covered in feathers or fur.

Most of the sightings of the creature were associated with the collapse of the Silver Bridge, which connected Point Pleasant, WV to Galliopolis, OH, in 1967. This tragedy resulted in the deaths of 46 people.

Though most of the reported Mothman activity was confined to the Point Pleasant, West Virginia area during the years of 1966-68, it has also been reportedly seen in the neighboring state of Ohio several times throughout the years since its first appearance on the other side of the Ohio River.

Why Nintendo Should Make a Sequel to “Super Princess Peach”

Nintendo Switch Sequel to Super Princess Peach

Princess Peach hasn’t starred in her own game since “Super Princess Peach” (2005). Will Nintendo appease their fans and release a “Super Princess Peach 2” for Nintendo Switch?

Why Nintendo Should Make a Sequel to “Super Princess Peach”

Princess Peach is one of the most iconic Nintendo characters from the Mario universe. Though she is usually found being kidnapped by Bowser in Mario games, she did have a game of her own on the Nintendo DS, called Super Princess Peach, where the roles were reversed and she had to rescue Mario, Luigi, and Toad from Bowser. Super Princess Peach was released on the Nintendo DS in Japan in 2005, and worldwide in 2006, and there hasn’t been another game centered around Princess Peach since.

Playing as Toadette, and her Super Crown form, Peachette in New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe is making me nostalgic for Super Princess Peach. I’ve been hoping for a sequel since I beat it, as have many other fans of the game. With Princess Peach’s popularity, fan demand for a sequel, and the popularity of the playable Peachette character in New Super Mario Bros. U on Switch, Nintendo should seriously consider making a new Super Princess Peach game for Switch.
