[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNaSBd0h9t4[/youtube] There is no doubt, what with the excruciating lack of PS Vita titles on the horizon that 3DS is the place to be when it comes to a compelling handheld experience. Third party support is finally starting to gain some traction for the console, and with the announcement of a North American release date for Code of Princess, that just adds ...
I was talking to some friends and the subject turned to what they would like to see happen in Nintendo’s future. Not just what games should be re-released, but what their future online play might evolve to, what features they should work into the system, and even what they would like to see in the next gen console after the Wii U ( little soon, I know but some of the ideas were pretty fanta...
Nintendo has been making a killing, especially in their home country, with the 3DS. Not only has the launch of the 3DS XL (or LL as it is known in Japan) sold like gang busters in its first week, the original 3DS saw a huge surge with the launch of New Super Mario Bros. 2. While there are still a couple of solid titles ahead for the Nintendo Wii, the same sales trend cannot be said for the console...
Back in the Day I would casually pick up a copy of Turok: Dinosaur Hunter at my local comic book hangout. It was never a favorite of mine, but it was a decent read. When the game was released for the N64 I didn’t rush out to buy it. In fact, It wasn’t until a couple years later that I actually played it. Once I pressed start I was hooked! I have never been a fan of FPS games, but...
I know it’s a little late for Tuesday, but finding an open internet connection away from home is a little hard sometimes. A friend of mine sent me a link to this awesome Zelda/Western mashup on Youtube. It’s a neat take on the Zelda story and I’ve gotta say I enjoyed it. It’s a three part Youtube series, and I’d definitely recommend taking the time to watch it if you ...
According to retail websites, Target, Amazon, andBest Buy, have updated their catalog with the final Wii U software box art. At this time, the final box art designs have not been confirmed by Nintendo, so it’s quite possible these are just placeholders. The supposed final designs do resemble that of the Gamecube software box art with the curved Wii U logo portion at the top. In addition, the...
Something that I always found interesting is that Microsoft does not offer a handheld version of the xBox. As the mobile gaming industry is exploding (just look at the 3DS sales), it almost seems that Microsoft has just given up on the handheld game. Something else that I find interesting is that Rareware (wholly owned my Microsoft) has, in the past, released games for the DS. Diddy Kong Racing ...
Glen Updike is a man that deserves our applause. The 27 Year old set, not one, but two NES world records! The Boscobel, Wisconsin resident scored an amazing 1,111,100 in Karate Champ on August 1, 2012. If you want to view the three hour long video, click here! Later that same week, he also hit a high score of 10,002,050 in Lifeforce. The feat took him only 16 hours and 46 minutes to reach! H...
Wedbush Industry’s Michael Pachter and another unnamed analyst from EEDAR have concluded that the Nintendo’s 3DS sales numbers will double those of the PlayStation Vita in the month of July. This news comes off prediction data compiled from Pachter and EEDAR, which was released days before NPD Group’s own market data. In addition, Pachter predicted that video game software sales...
Kingdom Hearts 3D is a wonderful game *and* a fun monster pet sim. On top of that, it features the most brilliant opening cinema I’ve ever seen. It’s very much like a Disney theme park attraction, in that you can’t get the full effect from promo films or Youtube videos; it can only be fully experienced at the source, and in this case that means the dual screens of the 3DS. SPOILE...
Okay, I realize that the title of this article is painful to read. However, that was my immediate thought when I read that Ngmoco thinks the Nintendo handheld division is about to implode. In my opinion, they are trying to conjure up some publicity for their “free to play” mobile games. Those games just so happen to be downloadable for Android and iOS. Ngmoco Ceo Neil Young thinks t...
When THEATRHYTHM FINAL FANTASY was first announced, I thought that it would be a pretty nifty little game to pass some time. What I didn’t expect was that it would be a great game that is constantly adding new content. For only $0.99 per song, you can download additional audio tracks. Today, Square Enix has released a schedule of new audio tracks:
