What games should I cover today at the show floor?
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...
3DS Majoras Mask?
Leading up to the Nintendo 3DS presentation, rumors are still buzzing about a possible release of Majora’s Mask for the 3DS. The rumors were buzzing that the Wii U would host the game, however it was AWOL from the presentation. Now the internets are abuzz that Majora’s Mask might actually be a Nintendo 3DS title.
Donkey Kong: Crash Course is a crash course in how to use the Wii U GamePad
After all was said and done today, Nintendo really made me a believer. Well, a believer in Nintendo Land anyways. There were certainly a few duds, but Donkey Kong: Crash Course certainly wasn’t one of them. The game is almost as hard to describe as a beautiful looking Italian lady is to talk to, but despite that fact it was most certainly fun to play. Like the rest of the games in Nintendo L...
Nintendo Spotting: Hiroshi Yamauchi
Pretty sure that I just snapped a picture of Hiroshi Yamauchi, the 14th richest man in Japan and Nintendo’s largest shareholder. What was Yamauchi-san doing tonight in LA? Well, looking after his former company of course! After all, he was once president of Nintendo of Japan!
Luigis Mansion Haunted Hijinks, almost the only reason you need to be excited for Nintendo Land
Jaded, cynical, a big fat loser. Those are all words that come to mind when I think about my knee jerk reaction to Nintendo’s press conference earlier today. Simply put, the Wii U, and more specifically, Nintendo Land needs to be played before it is understood. Although the game is indeed a mini-game collection, there was just a magic about using the Wii U GamePad for the first time in new a...
Wii U Specs
Nintendo has finally put out its specs sheet for the Wii U. It’s far from a definitive list, but I can’t complain about having extra oomph compared to the Wii.

Show floor impressions: The Wii U GamePad and Panorama View
For the most part, today’s E3 extravaganza was pretty fantastic. I must say that I was absolutely jaded before having played Nintendo Land for myself, the video shown at this morning’s press conference left a lot to be desired, but after getting my hands on all of the mini-games being shown today, I’m sold. The first ‘game’ I was ushered into was the Panorama View (wo...
E3 adventures! Straight from the show floor
So far so good in the land of Nintendo. After a little wait, I have finally gotten hands on with the entire Nintendo Land lineup here at E3 2012. I must say, I judged too soon. the game will most certainly be a killer app, and will get people used to the Wii U GamePad. I am on my way to try out all the third party offerings, so keep up with me on Twitter (@infendo_eugene) for up to the second upda...

U. Nintendo has the game slated as a Wii U launch title. More to come as E3 show floor opens today.
