New Super Smash Bros. title is available RIGHT NOW!
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=351CO5_8fbM&feature=player_embedded[/youtube] Super Smash Bros. is one or Nintendo’s most beloved franchises and when a new title is on the horizon, fans are always clamoring for more info. Well what if I told you that the newest entry is here and you can have it for free? Super Smash Land is de-make fan project of the popular franchise by  artist...
Regarding the recent news about Vita’s battery…
Hmmm. Three to five hours…and that’s with online capabilities disabled. Sounds awfully familiar, doesn’t it? I wonder how Sony fans are adapting to the news. I’d like to send them all a card: “Misery loves company, guys. Welcome aboard the S.S. Recharge.”
“The 3D Machine” invades Nintendo Video
One thing I wasn’t expecting from my 3DS was its ability to morph into a little portable film festival with truly outstanding entries. Do not miss this week’s Nintendo Video debut of “The 3D Machine” from Rotterdam’s Ka-Ching Cartoons. Not only is this the best film to hit the service so far, but it actually has (drum roll) a reason to be in 3D: the plot involves a cr...
What upcoming Nintendo game are you most excited to play this year?
Although I wish it had fewer cutscenes, I’ll go with Zelda: Skyward Sword out Nov. 20 on Wii. What about you? If you could only pick one game spanning all three current Nintendo systems, what game are you most excited to play by year’s end?
This game looks and sounds fun

A new way to rank games…what do you think?
Possibly the most vital part of any game review is the final score. Raise your hand if you have ever skipped an entire review to get straight to the final score in order to decide whether you should buy the game.
Here’s why Nintendo’s 3DS target is off by a whopping 75%
Just how bad is 3DS performing? In case it wasn’t obvious, let the numbers do the talking. According to Reuters, Nintendo is hoping to sell 16 million 3DS units by the end of the year. After selling more than 3 million units in the first month, sales tapered to just 700k additional units for the entire following quarter ending in June. That’s just over 4 million; 75% short of their 1...
The Nintendo games of tomorrow
It’s fair to say that the view we are currently afforded of Nintendo’s future products is rather lopsided. We know quite a bit about new hardware. The 3DS is already in our hands and the Wii U was unveiled months ago. We have been made aware of the consoles’ technical capabilities, know a good deal about their potential as well as their limits, and, as a result of this knowledge,...
Hey Nintendo, now you’re playing with power!
Nintendo is currently holding just finished up with a 3DS specific press conference in Japan, and a ton of new details have emerged. First and foremost, no, Nintendo didn’t show off the second analog add-on nor did they mention any redesign with dual analog support. The conference was mainly to show off a TON of new games coming to the handheld, and quietly delay another one. Let’s ge...
Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy is hard to say, looks to bring the rhythm to 3DS
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhA4vro3nJ8[/youtube] Square has released the first in-game footage of their 3DS rhythm title based in the Final Fantasy universe, and I must say, it has gotten my attention. Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy (how the heck do you pronounce that anyhow) is being developed by Retro Game Challenge developer Indies Zero, and looks to be a a fun diversion from your norm...
