Games coming out in May 2013

April 28th, 2013

Not much to say here, May has basically nothing coming out. This’ll be quick. 1 3DS release, 5 multiplats, nothing else.

Usual disclaimer: Those include either games I’m interested in, or games that may be/become popular… Basically anything I feel bears mentioning, whether I’m personally hyped for it or not.

Let’s go!

Games coming out in April 2013

March 24th, 2013

This is a pretty empty month surprisingly, but there’s a couple cool releases upcoming… Oh, and kickstarter backers such as I will be getting their OUYA consoles near the beginning of the month so you can expect a post where I’ll bash the console! … Probably.

Either way… In April we’re getting: 2 3DS titles, a Vita game, a PS3 game, a 360 game and 3 multiplats. As I said, slow month.

Usual disclaimer: Those include either games I’m interested in, or games that may be/become popular… Basically anything I feel bears mentioning, whether I’m personally hyped for it or not. I’m probably missing some stuff (generally the more indie stuff).

Games coming out in March 2013

February 26th, 2013

Well this has been a slow month of posting… I’ve been playing a couple RPGs so I haven’t really had time to post too much at all (gameplay time is low when you have a full-time job). Ni No Kuni and Fire Emblem reviews still possibly upcoming though, eventually I might actually play those to completion.

On that note, let’s talk about upcoming releases in March! Here we’re getting: 4 3DS games, 3 PS3 games, 2 PC games, a 360 game, 1 Wii U games, a Vita game, a Wii game, and finally 6 multiplatform games… OH and I think the Ouya is coming out for kickstarter backers in March… but who cares?

Games coming out in February 2013

January 20th, 2013

I’m posting this early, because I predict my free time may be taken by Ni No Kuni this week (if I receive it this week)… I do have a few other upcoming posts, but we’ll see if I’ll ever have time to do that.

February is giving us: 2 great 3DS games, 6 multiplat releases, 1 Wii U release and 1 Vita release. A couple of quality releases here.

Games coming out in January 2013

December 26th, 2012

A new year, yay! While 2012 was a bit low on amazing titles, I have some hopes for 2013 being pretty fun.

The first month of the year gives us: 3 multiplat games, 1 PS3 game, 1 3DS game, 1 PC game and 1 Vita game. Not a whole lot of stuff, but let’s see if there’s anything cool shall we?

Games coming out in November 2012

October 21st, 2012

November is always when the biggest blockbusters of the year come out! … So why is there NOTHING coming out this November? I mean, there’s a new console, sure, but there are very few strong releases, or even releases at all, otherwise… it’s rather surprising… GAMING COMPANIES, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING! Needless to say I’ll be a bit negative in this post, sorry ’bout that :P

So here we have: a new console with 23-ish games at launch (maybe 2 of which are noteworthy), 3 3DS games, 2 Vita games, 1 PSP game, 5 multiplatform games, 1 PS3 game, one PS3 accessory, and finally 1 360 game. It’s extraordinarily low compared to usual Novembers, and there’s really not much that’s really noteworthy at all.

Usual disclaimer: Those include either games I’m interested in, or games that may be/become popular… Basically anything I feel bears mentioning, whether I’m personally hyped for it or not. No “shovelware” here… I mean, there’s 2 Call of Duty titles this month, but otherwise, no shovelware.

Games coming out in October 2012

September 24th, 2012

Well, tons of releases this month! The season of big releases is finally actually starting. Not really a whole lot I’m personally interested in buying, but a lot of stuff nonetheless.

So in October were’s getting: 13 multiplatform games, 4 3DS games, 1/2 DS games, 6 Vita releases (whoa!), 2 PS3 exclusives and 2 Xbox 360 exclusives. Again ignoring Battle Kid 2 which should have been out quite a while ago.

Games coming out in September 2012

August 23rd, 2012

The biggest release period of the year is starting, let’s see what’s going on there, shall we? Hopefully this means I’ll start getting more reviews out!

Okay, let’s ignore Battle Kid 2 this time, despite there being no news about its release… should be really soon though so KEEP CHECKING OUT RETROUSB.COM… In september, we’re getting: 10 multiplatform releases, 2 PC releases, 1 Wii release, 3 2 PS3 releases (Mugen Souls was delayed just as I was about to post this) and 1 Vita release.

Games coming out in July 2012

June 26th, 2012

And now the slow time of the year. July is usually very light on releases, one of the lightest months of the year except maybe for December, and this July is no exception other than for the 3DS.

We’re still getting some stuff. The 3DS has a staggering 4 releases, the Wii has a release, the PSP has a release, PSN and XBLA are getting something (I’m not sure when Jet Set Radio HD is supposed to come so I haven’t included it), and the NES is pretty likely to get something too. And it’s pretty much quality all-around.
