Mario Tennis Used to Be a JRPG, and I Miss Those Days

It seems typical for brothers to play tennis or baseball, but what happens when characters from the Mario universe join in? These games playfully imagine how Goombas would play baseball without arms, or why a golf course might have lava! While known as fun party games blending real sports with Mario’s world, there are also surprisingly engaging single-player story modes hidden within. Though not long-lived, the Mario Tennis and Mario Golf games developed by Camelot Software Planning for Game Boy Color and Game Boy Advance are unique and memorable pieces of Mario history.

Free-to-Play Strategy RPG Named One of the Most Player-Friendly By Its Users

I’ve been seeing a lot of buzz about this game, and I think part of it is because people were pretty disappointed with the anniversary rewards and how Genshin Impact handles its gacha system. This game uses a gacha system too – you basically collect new Cookies through it. They’re all different rarities, from pretty common to super rare ‘Legendary’ and ‘Beast’ ones, and you use them to battle in both story mode and against other players. As of February 2026, there are already over 175 Cookies you can collect, and the developers keep adding more with every update, which is exciting!

Naruto: The Strongest Character In Every Arc, Ranked

During the first parts of the original Naruto anime, many characters were still developing their skills. This means that popular, powerful characters like Naruto and Sasuke weren’t actually the strongest fighters at the beginning of the series. Instead, more experienced ninja – like jonin, Kage, and those hosting powerful tailed beasts (jinchuriki) – usually took that title. Some of these early powerhouses remained strong throughout the entire series, but others were eventually surpassed as the story went on.

My Hero Academia: The Strongest Character In Every Arc, Ranked

Smaller story arcs often don’t stand out because they lack significant events and tend to blend into larger arcs. In contrast, major arcs clearly showcase power differences between characters. It’s notable how some characters in My Hero Academia start relatively weak but become incredibly powerful over time, and vice versa for others. We can judge these characters’ importance within an arc by how strong they are during that specific storyline.

Open-World Games Where the Side Content Is Better Than the Main Quest

I’ve been thinking about games lately, and sometimes the main story isn’t the strongest part. You know, maybe the plot feels a little thin or the big moments aren’t that impressive. But in a lot of open-world games, it’s the side quests and just exploring that really make the whole experience amazing. Those extra things can totally save a game, even if the main story isn’t perfect.

One Piece: 4 Characters That Stole Their Devil Fruits From Someone Else

The God Valley Incident brought together all of the strongest fighters in the world of One Piece. The competition was brutal, turning the location into a chaotic battlefield. Among those present was Kuma, who was enslaved and desperately trying to survive while also pursuing his ambition: to obtain a Devil Fruit. This fruit was the reward for the event’s winners, but Kuma managed to claim it for himself. He ate the Nikyu Nikyu no Mi, which gives him the ability to repel anything he touches with his paws. This power is incredibly versatile, offering both strong offensive capabilities for fighting and a powerful defense that makes him difficult to defeat.

Where Winds Meet’s Hexi Expansion Launches on March 6, Adds A New Region

Okay, so the update throws a bunch of seriously tough new enemies at you. We’re talking massive warriors lugging around cannons, a weird magical deer, this huge bird-like dude – a tengu, I think – and even a lamia that can summon lightning! They all look incredibly intimidating, and honestly, I’m hoping the loot drops are amazing to make all that fighting worth it.
