About Leon Fletcher

I am a huge Nintendo fan, hence why NintyBuzz exists. I especially love all things Zelda and Metroid. NintyBuzz was started by me back in the Summer of 2014, it started out mainly as a hobby, though the site has gradually grown, and I hope it grows for many years to come!

Playground Mode returns to Fortnite in 1st Birthday update

Last month, Epic Games included a brand new limited time mode (or LTM) called Playground Mode. This peaceful mode allowed players to roam around the world freely, either on their own or in a squad, and build to their hearts content. It’s perfect for practicing for Battle Royale, or if you just want to screw about with your friends. The mode returns tomorrow (25th July 2018) for a limited time with brand new features, such as more supply drops, lowered respawn time, in-game team switching, and more.

That’s not all as today marks Fortnite’s 1st Birthday! To celebrate, Epic have included some exclusive birthday swag. Each Birthday challenge which you complete will unlock a new piece of Birthday gear. You can also find slices of Birthday cake around the world which will increase both your health and shield by 5 points. Finally, there have also been a few cosmetic changes added to the battle bus and supply drops.

Check out the full patch notes from the 5.10 update, which is live now, right after the break!

REVIEW – Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker (Nintendo Switch)

You just have to love Captain Toad. He started his own little brigade in Super Mario Galaxy to assist in the retrieval of power stars, you could get a brief glimpse of how he retrieves said stars in the bonus levels of Super Mario 3D World, and then he had his very own adventure in Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker for the Wii U. Now it’s time to relive that adventure on the go for Nintendo Switch (as well as 3DS).

Is Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker for Nintendo Switch as cute as a Toad in a box, or is it a rather undelightful adventure? Found out in our review after the break!

The Nintendo Labo Workshop is returning, this time on a seemingly permanent basis at Kidzania, the ‘indoor city run by kids’.

The experience starts in the MAKE station, where kids are able to make and customise their own RC Cars. This is then followed by the Discover station, where attendees can bring their RC car to life with the Nintendo Labo software. The DISCOVER station will also allow guests to try out the other Nintendo Labo ToyCons. At the end of the experience, the youngsters will be able to take home their very own personal RC car, along with a super special Nintendo Labo Workshop certificate.
