The Save Points!

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!

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.

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?

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.

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?

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

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.

Let’s Go!

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.

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.

June! Games! Stuff! Words! Yeah, I don’t have anything to say this month. Let’s just talk about the games that are coming out.

So there’s a couple things coming out in June. Let’s see… a 3DS release, a DS release, a PSP release, 2 Vita releases, a Wii release, a PS3 release, 3 Xbox 360 releases (whoa!) and five multiplatform releases… And even possibly another NES release! Seems like everything is getting something in june!

Well, March was another slow month for me in regards to writing, but I do have some posts upcoming. Reviews for Kid Icarus: Uprising, Tales of Graces f, Ys: Oath of Felghana, maybe Street Fighter X Tekken, maybe Fortune Summoners, maybe Wizorb and a couple other random things are in the pipeline somewhere (in addition to some things coming out in April)… in addition to that I have a new series of posts I mentioned a couple times so far (I already have a bunch of posts written for it, I’m just building a backlog of those in case I slow down in writing them), which I’ll probably start posting in April with no set schedule. I’m also thinking of another new post series, but that may just come later in the year.

Either way, this April is a slow month in regards to amount of releases, but there’s still some good quality stuff here, which is what matters in the end. Here we have 2 multiplatform games, 1 Wii game, 2 3DS games, 1 Vita game, somehow an Xbox 360 exclusive, and a free-to-play PC game! Kind of strange to see a month with a 360 exclusive and no PS3 exclusives.

So read on and see what’s coming!
