Smash Bros. like you’ve never seen them before (and hopefully ever again)
I freely admit that this is the first time something related to Super Smash Bros. Brawl has frightened me. A little. More eeriness here. That said, Zero Suit Samus is, as ever, still sexy.
WiiWare fight: NyxQuest or Bit Trip Beat?
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_z5dfFrIXk[/youtube] Need a new WiiWare game. Been hearing really good things about NyxQuest (pictured), a platformer, and Bit Trip Beat (after the break), a pong-like rhythm game. Any owners out there want to defend their favorite and show me the light?

Capcom: Resident Evil 5 “possible” on Wii. Infendo: “No thanks’We don’t care about boring sequels”
Some Capcom dude has been quoted as saying that Resident Evil 5 is “possible” on Wii. Still, it “isn’t likely,” he says. Were he talking about a game of consequence, say Capcom’s excellent Resident Evil 4, I would be saddened by the statement. But he’s not talking about a game of consequence. He’s talking about a clunky controlled, out of touch Resid...
Game & Watch coming to DSiWare (in Japan)
Be still my nostalgic heart, for there’s Game & Watch games coming to DSiWare in the wonderful Land of the Rising sun. Sure, it’s Japan only, for now, but if clap really hard, and dust off all of our Mario’s Cement Factory games in unison, perhaps Nintendo will notice and throw a few our way? Maybe.

Wii fist: The image of a generation?
Kotaku, the world’s largest video game blog, wonders if the “Wii Remote raised in fist” has become the image of a generation. The motif was first seen in 2005 on the cover of Edge, followed by Nintendo Power in 2006, and this year in the form of an upcoming book. I don’t know about you, but I’d say it’s the image of a generation. Sort of like “Power to the...
