I don’t think it’s any secret that this year’s E3 is going to be huge for Nintendo. It isn’t exactly doom or gloom for the company, but if they drop the bomb, it could be rough sailing for them for the foreseeable future. What will Nintendo reveal at this year’s show? Well, your guess is as good as mine, but I’m the one with the WordPress account, so my opinion ...
Between anti-gaming activist Jack Thompson being, well, Jack Thompson and the sometimes annoying concerns of violent video game controversies, our hobby that is the billion dollar video game industry has come under a lot of scrutiny. However, what some old school parents may not know, video games have done more good than harm to society. How so, you ask? Well, the Internet’s Frugal Dad has...
Last week it was rumored that two new Castelvania titles would be coming to Nintendo consoles, which really excited me. But rumors are rumors after all, but Nintendo Power is another thing entirely. Looks like a new title is indeed incoming in the form of Castlevania: Lords of Shadow – Mirror of Fate, and the game will be hitting exclusively on the 3DS. From GoNintendo:
Over the years, Nintendo has battled many competitors across the gaming universe and each foe has fallen to the wayside. Sure, you can argue that Sony and Microsoft are hanging on, and I wouldn’t disagree, but in gaming years they are still infants. Nintendo has been around much longer and has learned from trial and error many times over. I would say that Nintendo has been around the bloc...

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR9PkvfyH5g&hd=1[/youtube] Heroes of Ruin was one of the best games I saw last year for 3DS at E3 2011, and by the looks of it, it seems as if it will be one of 2012’s best games for the system. Drop in, drop out online multiplayer? Diablo-esque gameplay on a handheld? Thousands of equipment combinations to chose from? Check, check, check…sign me u...

In a week’s time we will know almost everything there is to know about what Nintendo’s strategy for the upcoming year is.

I stand by my more-positive-than-most review of Mario Tennis Open; it’s been non-stop fun since I popped that game into my 3DS. If you’ve encountered Wilford in the Wiggler suit online, that’s me. Since my review reflected my then-current view of the game’s online play, I feel it’s my duty to add an update. Apparently, as more and more tennis fans enter the fray onlin...
Attending E3 is a dream of every video game fan. The excitement of new games and consoles, the rush of meeting your favorite developer, the pure joy of just nerding out with others that are doing the same, what could better! Sadly, we cannot all attend E3…and I am one of them. I would love to shed my responsibility and nerd out, but family and work requires me to continue my daily life. N...
Looks like Shigeru Miyamoto has another award to add his ever-growing trophy case. And no, Miyamoto did not just survive the annual Running of the Bulls by himself, but rather Spain’s prestigious Prince of Asturias prize for communications and humanities. In addition, Miyamoto was awarded 50,000 euro ($64,000) for the prize. The jury of Spaniards praised the 59-year-old game designer for ...
I know what you are thinking, this isn’t an article about Nintendo. You are right, it isn’t…at least not directly. In 2010, Motorola sued Microsoft for infringement of 16 patents. I won’t bore you with the details, however Motorola had requested that Microsoft cease using their patented technology and provide compensation for past infringement. Needless to say, Microsoft...

According to those pesky “anonymous industry sources,” Konami is well underway on developing not one, but two new Castlevania titles, and both will be hitting Nintendo platforms. Castlevania: Mirror of Fate will apparen...
