Angry Birds 3DS: Is $39.99 Too Much?
I would bet that most people reading this have played Angry birds. Whether it is on an iPhone, Android, or Google Chrome web browser, it is almost impossible to escape the phenomenon. I have played each version of Angry birds while waiting for meetings and other times that I had a few minutes to spare (which isn’t often). It is fairly addictive, although I do get bored with it after a whi...

New TWEWY For iOS
As the new Twewy site became active within Sqaure Enix, the internet became abuzz with the possibility of a sequel. Unfortunately, the other day, we found out it could be for iOS. Today, the site has fully loaded, and speculation of an iOS port have become reality. Why would Square Enix do this? Personally, I think it is to help explain what Twewy is to the masses. Dream Drop Distance brought ...
Ninja Gaiden For 3DS, Yes Please!
I can remember when I first played Ninja Gaiden. It was shortly after the US launch in 1989, and I received it as a gift. I had actually never heard of it, so I was not sure what to expect. As I powered on my NES, I can still see the stains on the top from using it as a coaster, the title screen blew me away. If it was any indication of the game itself, I knew it would be an instant favorite. ...
New Final Fantasy XIII Site Is Live!
Although the console Final Fantasy games have all but abandoned Nintendo, at least they seem to have, I think it is worth reporting the game that “saved Nintendo” has a new web site up and running. The website teases the announcement of the a new addition to the Final Fantasy XIII saga. It does not state whether it will be Final Fantasy XIII-3 or Final Fantasy Versus XIII. Ei...

Nintendo Power to cease publication
As cliche as it sounds, but it’s the end of an era for fans of classic video game magazines. After more than 20 years in publication, Nintendo Power will be closing its doors. The news first broke when Nintendo Power senior editor, Chris Hoffman, sent out a Tweet (which, he has since deleted) stating that he was “sad to see it go.” Hoffman later mentioned that Nintendo PowerR...
