Have you heard everything the Mole said?
If you have been checking Infendo recently, you may have noticed a few posts about insider information regarding a few upcoming titles. One involving a ground up project for Star Fox coming on either the Wii or the Nintendo DSi. Which would be considered a revival of the franchise. We also had information on that ‘football patent’ which apparently is for the a new Mario sports title, M...

Nintendo Spotting: Surely, this would rot your teeth edition
Well, looks like someone had some time on their hands at Safeway, huh? Still, this is miles ahead of the silly New England Patiots soda case displays they assemble at my local Shaw’s.
Apple targets Nintendo DS, video game domination
Pictured above: A chart Apple showed at its latest press conference today, comparing the number of available PSP, DS, and iPod games. Apple, in classic form, decided not to asterisk iPod (which, although a wonderful little gaming device, makes Wii mini games look like epic Zelda sagas.) Click on the above link for more of Apple’s gaming plans, including increased partnerships with key publis...
What will happen with Bob’s Game?
As a lot of you know, Bob’s game is an indie game that was proclaimed to be the first Nintendo DSi title. After a lot of Internet drama about obtaining the official Nintendo SDK for the DS and supposed attacks on Nintendo, it was clear that it was nothing more than an amazing self promoting public relation stunt by the creator. With nothing more than a flash cart demo to show for his one hun...

Enough already! Why I quit playing new games
If you’re a Wii owner, there’s a huge selection of class A titles to choose from. My problem is, I haven’t finished most of them. There’s a very large drawer in my living room full of titles like Twilight Princess, Punch-Out, Zak & Wiki, and many more. Last week, I bought Guitar Hero 5 and find it quite fine, but every time I open the drawer to get out the disc, t...
Trailer coming for the New Zelda game in October
According to our insider source who wishes to remain anonymous, Nintendo is working hard to get a trailer made on a working build of the next Wii Zelda game. According to our source, the trailer will launch in October at an upcoming conference [Nintendo Business media summit?] and it will show shed some light onto the mystery of why Link didn’t have a sword. As much as we can speculate to wh...

New Game Get – Beatles Rock Band, Muramasa, and Contra Rebirth!
This week’s big release is The Beatles: Rock Band, but you have to admit that Muramasa looks pretty awesome, too. Guitar Hero is switching their downloadable content exclusively to GH5 and it looks like they’re trying to counteract Beatlesmania with some Rolling Stones. Rock Band 2 continues to get a ton of DLC with some Talking Heads and some Penny Arcade Expo tracks. And OMG … ...
Never going back
As I was waiting for the evening hour to come around so I could go out on the town and revel in tomorrow’s day off, I decided to pop Wii Sports in and play a few sets in tennis. Sweet, sweet nostalgia, I thought to myself as that title screen faded into view, the quirky music taking me back to a time in 2006 when waggling was new and Nintendo still had a lot to prove. But then after that fir...
