About Inside Gaming Net
What Inside Gaming Net Covers
Inside Gaming Net is an independent website about Nintendo and the kinds of games Nintendo is best known for. We cover the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, Nintendo’s first-party series such as Mario, The Legend of Zelda, Pokémon, Kirby, Metroid and Donkey Kong, 2D and 3D platformers from any publisher, and games that work well for families and younger players.
We are not a breaking-news site. You will not find rumours, leak roundups or daily sales charts here. We publish evergreen explainers that stay useful long after they go live: how a system feature works, where to start with a long-running series, what makes a platformer feel good to play and which games suit a particular age or skill level.
Our Categories
- Switch Essentials – practical guides to the Switch and Switch 2: hardware, storage, Nintendo Switch Online, game formats, data transfers and system features.
- Nintendo Series – explainers, play orders and histories of Nintendo’s franchises and the studios behind them.
- Platformers – the 2D and 3D platform genre: design, mechanics, landmark games and series from Nintendo and other publishers.
- Family Gaming – parental controls, age ratings, assist features, healthy gaming habits and games that suit kids.
- Best Of – curated, spoiler-free lists of standout games for different players.
