Brian’s infatuation with gaming started in the NES days, but he truly fell in love while holding an SNES controller. From that point forward, he was playing video games whenever he could, first branching over to the Genesis, and then to every subsequent console that achieved any amount of success. Brian is also the host of All Things Nintendo, a weekly podcast focused on the news and games of Nintendo. Prior to joining the Game Informer team, he contributed to outlets like IGN, Kotaku, Official Xbox Magazine, GamesRadar, Joystiq, and others on a freelance basis.
This week on All Things Nintendo, Brian gives his verdict on Blasphemous 2 and interviews two people involved with the music of Sonic the Hedgehog in different ways.
Blasphemous 2 takes inspiration from those that came before it, but by intertwining a gorgeous art style, enticing exploration, and rewarding combat, it rises above the horde of Castlevania-inspired action titles.
This week, we run down all the latest news coming out of the Pokémon Presents, celebrate 30 years of Zelda: Link's Awakening, and give our impressions of the new Overwatch 2 season.
