Today, Nintendo has announced the newest downloads for the eShop and Nintendo Video that will be available this week. Of the three new items announced, I am interested in “underneath the Sycamore”. The old time comic look seems quite interesting. Will you be downloading any of these? Nintendo eShop Ketzal’s Corridors – The evil god Koruptal has brought chaos and destruction t...
As I mentioned in a previous post, I’ve recently – and belatedly — discovered the surprisingly great Skylanders, and have now morphed from embarrassed newcomer to up-front defender of the game (despite its ruthless, money-sucking business model). Truth be told, Skylanders is a brilliant and beautifully-crafted adventure, both on Wii and 3DS. Having finished the 3DS version, I was several cha...
As children, adolescents, and adults, we have all wasted time doodling our favorite video game characters. I can remember customizing Samus with new weapons and new armors (until my mind was blown when I finished the game) and imagining different worlds for her to explore. I am sure many of you have done the same. Artist Campbell Whyte, Born in Perth, Western Australia in the year 1984, took th...
Here is something that is really neat. Nintendo & The Louvre Museum (Ya know, the one with the Mona Lisa…) have announced a partnership that will make use of the 3DS.
The newest trailer for Sonic’s latest episodic release revealed this potentially disappointing news to the general public. Sonic 4: Episode I was, in my opinion, one of Sonic’s finest titles to date. Sure the physics were a bit…wonky, to be honest, but the game did everything else right – including holding a spot on the Wii Shop Channel, giving everyone a chance to play the...
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0uBqg0Vo6A[/youtube] Joel McHale, star of NBC’s Community (thankfully of which wasn’t cancelled by the network), was kind enough to star in a new comedic sketch video to pimp out the Nintendo 3DS. In the video, McHale first demands for a baby panda (who wouldn’t?) for his work promoting Nintendo’s handheld. What follows is McHale kic...
Namco Bandai applied for a European trademark on April 4th for, what we can assume is, a game titled Pac-Man Smash. There is no further information available at this time, but I am sure there is plenty of speculation out there. I am hoping, with the resurrection of such classic games such as Kid Icarus: Uprising and Myst, that the title will be released for the 3DS, or maybe even the Wii U. It w...
The Internet is lit up today with the report that Nintendo has recently bought the domain supermario4.com. Is it possible that we are seeing a revival of the original NES Super Mario Bros. series?

I Love my 3DS. It has an excellent library of games, downloadable content, Netflix, StreetPass and more. I have spent several hours saving Hyrule, racing Karts, finding the Princess, taking on the Underworld forces… The list could go on and on. One game though, has been on my 3DS since Day One yet I have not played since the day I turned my system on… Face Raiders. Seriously, does anyo...
