The special moments we have shared

When I stop to think about the adventures that Julio & I have shared over the years, there are some amazing moments and experiences that always make me smile. As exciting as our travels and events around the world have been, some of my favourite moments spent together as a couple have been those we spend at home. I quickly came to realize that it was Julio’s love for Nintendo and Pokémon that made him so endearing when we first started to date. Looking back on our relationship, Nintendo has actually been a huge part of our lives. I guess that happens when you genuinely love something. So I decided to look back at some of the special moments we have shared together as Nintendo fans.  Continue reading “The special moments we have shared”

Are you Super Bowl Sunday ready?

Super Bowl 2017 is around the corner, and though this may surprise many of you, I look forward to it every year. NO, not just because this year Lady Gaga will be performing the Half Time Show. I think it has something to do with the fond memories of getting excited for the big game with my Dad when I was growing up. Oh and maybe the fact that this time I’ve placed a bet on the SuperBowl results using the likes of Sportsbooks.ag, let’s hope for some winnings! It’s a bit different to now than when I was growing up… My mom would get all the best snacks ready for days beforehand, my Dad would usually scream at the television as a good sports fan does, and we would all talk about how silly it was that we couldn’t see those coveted US #SuperBowl commercials in Canada. He even used a betting site similar to FanDuel, which got him further immersed into the game! It was a family event and one that I genuinely look back on and cherish all these years later.

Ready. Set. Switch!

It should come as no shock that (in large part thanks to Julio) I have rediscovered my love of Nintendo. In fact, it’s not just Nintendo that I have rediscovered my love for, as I would go as far as saying that it extends to the whole gaming industry and the games that I used to play as a child and young adult. I was pleased to see that my skills were still up to scratch with what they used to be, so it’s good to know that I’m still at the top of my game. The only difference from when I used to play the popular game of Elder Scrolls Online is that you can now use something like this eso best builds guide to help you create a character that can help you to battle your enemies in ultra-quick time. I love guides like this, and I hope there are some others for Nintendo that I can get my teeth stuck into to give me a headstart.

You know, at 33 years old, I still get just as excited to cross the finish line on Mario Kart in first place as I did at 15. 2017 is going to be an amazing year for Nintendo with the upcoming launch of #NintendoSwitch, the latest system that is changing the way we look at gaming altogether. We’ve got all the exciting details for you and will even have a chance to share our first hand experience before it launches in Canada! Continue reading “Ready. Set. Switch!”

Events | Come get a sneak peek event to celebrate the launch of Nintendo’s YO-KAI WATCH 2 games and toys!

For those of you who have gotten to know me over the years, you’ll realize that I am a big kid at heart. When we have the opportunity, Julio & I can usually be found on Saturday mornings eating sugary cereal watching cartoons. Amid Pokémon, Power Rangers and a few others, we’ve gotten looped into the world of YO-KAI WATCH. That’s why when our friends at Nintendo told us about a sneak peek event taking place here in Toronto to preview the NEW YO-KAI WATCH 2: Bony Spirits and YO-KAI WATCH 2: Fleshy Souls video games for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems before they come out on September 30, we knew we HAD to there. And the best part, you’re invited too! Continue reading “Events | Come get a sneak peek event to celebrate the launch of Nintendo’s YO-KAI WATCH 2 games and toys!”
