In the five years since the Nintendo Switch released, the console has become absolutely loaded with great games, including plenty of entries in some of Nintendo's most popular franchises. Family-friendly games have always been part of Nintendo's DNA, and with the Switch becoming Nintendo's most successful home console ever, it's no surprise that there are more stellar games for kids on the Switch than any of the console's predecessors. We've rounded up the best Switch games for kids in 2022...
Like so many From Software games to come before it, Elden Ring is tough. However, unlike these games, Elden Ring is also open-world and mind-numbingly large, making all of its mysteries and madness even harder to keep track of. Though Elden Ring might offer players a generous amount of icons to scatter about their map and some very helpful sites might be hard at work creating some very helpful guides to get you through the game's toughest bits, I'd argue the best companion to help you on...
An important part of FromSoftware's latest game, Elden Ring, is leveling up both your character and your weapons. Upgrading weapons provides higher base damage stats and improves the attribute scaling that a weapon has. However, upgrading weapons, especially multiple weapons, is going to require a ton of Smithing Stones. Smithing Stones can be found throughout the Lands Between, but here are some of the locations in Elden Ring where each Smithing Stone and Somber Smithing Stone tier can be...
As you progress through Elden Ring, one thing is going to remain true: Enemies are going to get tougher. They're going to have more HP and resistances to different types of damage. The best way to counter these effects, especially if you're using melee weapons, is to upgrade your gear at a smith using Smithing Stones. However, there aren't enough Smithing Stones in Elden Ring's open world to upgrade everything. That's why it's important to get the game's base-level Smithing Stone Miner's...
The Nintendo Switch and Switch OLED come with a dock that is needed to display the picture on your TV. While the console itself is easily movable, unplugging your dock and hooking it up in another room in your home can be a hassle. That's why it might make sense to have a secondary dock if you game in multiple rooms. You also may want a more compact docking option for travel. We've rounded up the best Nintendo Switch docks below, and yes, the official option leads the way, but there are...
While Microsoft Flight Simulator is playable with a standard Xbox controller, dedicated players will undoubtedly want the realism that's added by using a flight stick. Ever since the rebooted franchise released on PC and Xbox Series X|S, the niche flight stick controller category has seen a resurgence in popularity. If you're interested in playing Microsoft Flight Simulator (or other games like Star Wars Squadrons) with a proper control scheme, we've rounded up the best flight sticks...

Much like my hunter, I first heard of Yharnham through its reputation. Through tales woven by those either mystified or horror struck by the events that took place within that once grand city. More often than not, however, it was some intriguingly bizarre mixture of both. Also like my hunter, I arrived in Yharnam late--just past its glory days and just before the birth of something new. Fortunately for me, that something new was not eldritch horrors, but rather the next entry in developer...
Elden Ring rune farming is the key to leveling your character from a lowly Tarnished to a boss-slaying champion, and there are several viable places to farm runes, even as soon as you get to the Lands Between. We've covered several great early rune farming locations in Elden Ring already, but arguably the best of them is so good that we worry it may be patched out soon. With that in mind, take your best sword, staff, or axe and head to Fort Faroth to slay a very generous dragon. Here's how...
