Another of the games being shown from the Nintendo Land collection this week Animal Crossing: Sweet Day. While Sweet Day is clearly designed to play with a collection of friends, something a trade show filled with complete strangers doesn’t exactly facilitate, the mini-game does have the makings of a fun time. I can see spending many an hour with Sweet Day on Wii U, especially when playing w...
With all the great game news pouring in from E3 this week, one game-related item has gotten a bit overshadowed in the shuffle: Disney has finally released some real film images and an official trailer for the upcoming CGI videogame fantasy extravaganza, Wreck-it Ralph. All I can say is, if you haven’t seen the trailer yet, follow this link. I agree with what others have voiced: if this turns...
Remember the New Play Control! version of Pikmin that released way back in 2009? Yup, so do I. You know how Nintendo plans on finally releasing the New Play Control! version of Pikmin 2 here in the states next week? Yeah, I plan on picking that one up too. If you have played both of these, then you pretty much know what to expect for Pikmin 3, because aside from the added Wii U GamePad map, the ga...
… and was most definitely ZombiU, hands down. It wasn’t even close. Granted, most of my time thus far has been entirely with Nintendo products, but even still, the game has the makings of greatness. Not only did the game scare the pants off of me at some points, but the game was so polished that you would think it was ready for release tomorrow. The game takes place in a 2012 zombie in...
One of the games on display in the Nintendo Land collection this week was The Legend of Zelda: Battle Quest. Like most of the games in Nintendo Land, Battle Quest seems as if it was specifically developed to train players how to use the Wii U GamePad, and as an added bonus the Wii MotionPlus controller.
It seems that Nintendo Stockholders, in Japan at least, are a bit weary of the success of the Wii U and the announced launch titles. Following the Wii U Presentation, share prices dropped 2.68% since trading opened. Today, the Nintendo stock dropped an additional 0.99% in Japan. Sony’s stocks rose by 2.14% after their presentation. Does this mean that the Wii U is destined to fail? I don...
If you follow Nintendo of America on Facebook or Twitter, you may have noticed a Fire Emblem post they made last night.
The shows about to start folks. Get your bodies ready
So here’s the thing. The Wifi is terrible at E3. For that matter the Wifi is terrible in Canada as well (sorry Marcus!). For those reasons and a few others, our podcast was truncated this week, and we actually lost 10-15 minutes of the show. Sorry! Doesn’t mean that is still there isn’t excellent however! Think of it as cutting off the fat on an excellent piece of steak maybe. In...
This is a follow-up to my previous article on the slim pickings on the official specs that were released by Nintendo yesterday.
As much as I would like to, there is just no physical way that I’m going to be able to see everything at this year’s show. It’s just too big. In any case, I want to cover everything that you fine folks at Infendo would like me to cover. That’s what today’s poll is all about. It’s simple, you vote, I cover. If the game you want to see isn’t on the list, tel...
