Wii U: Franchise Rumors?

Let’s face it, with the many rumors surrounding the Wii U, Xbox720, and PS4, it is easy to get lost in the daily unconfirmed announcements.  I do  not know if this Wii U announcement is true or not but Mike Gwilliam, of Forget the Box, has announced some new unconfirmed rumors about the Wii U. It seems as though Nintendo has plans to display ten or eleven of their own titles at the upcoming ...

Use of the Wii U Controllor in Arkham City said to be ‘fantastic’

…or so said Mark Rein of Epic Games. Speaking at GDC, Rein says that the Wii U version of Arkham City would not be just a straight port of the already released, Xbox 360, PS3, and PC versions of the game. In fact, the game uses “fantastic use of the touch controller.” Rein declined to clarify exactly how that would be, but it seems as if it could make fantastic use of the tech. Wii U detecti...

Ruben Puig Lecegui: No Longer #1

Anybody who has played Pokemon knows that sometimes things don’t always go your way, in fact things can end pretty crappy.  Sometimes even the best Pokémon trainers have bad days.  And Pokemon Champion, Ruben Puig Lecegui, is no exception. Ruben Puig Lecegui is actually a two time Champion.  I think his celebrity status got to him at the last UK Video  Game Championship, because his actions ...

Poll – The price of Wii U

Last month, 84% of you said that Nintendo should change the name of Wii U before it goes on sale. Taking into account that Nintendo has yet to make final announcements about all of the console’s features, we want to know: {democracy:166}

New Dream Drop Distance Screenshots Released!

Square has announced, today, that new  screenshots featuring a sneak peek of the brand-new world, “The Grid” from TRON: Legacy for KINGDOM HEARTS 3D [Dream Drop Distance are now available! Personally, I have mixed feelings about The Grid.  I was not a fan of Tron in KH2, so I hope it gets some improvements.  The realistic worlds such as Pirates of the Caribbean, and Tron just seem a bit out of pla...

Review: Fun! Fun! Minigolf Touch! Isn’t! Isn’t!

I love Minigolf, and I love my 3DS, so I had some cautious hope that Shin’en’s Fun! Fun! Minigolf Touch! might be a decent way to spend $4.99. Unfortunately, this game breaks the months-long streak of outstanding original 3DS eShop games. Fun! Fun! Minigolf Touch! isn’t a disaster, it’s just…meh. Meh. It’s got a sharp presentation, with clean 3D graphics, pleasa...

More Online Mario Kart (7) “Impossibilities”- We Can Laugh About ’em Now…

…and laugh is what I hope you all do at the following recollections of what surely should be impossibilities in the world of gaming. That’s what we’re thinking anyway as we cruise down the tracks of Mario Kart 7, forgetting that anything can and will go wrong by the time we power down. “It’ll never happen to me,” we think as we chuck all three of our useless, re...

Mario Party 9 Site Updated

On March 11th, the 9th installment of the Mario Party series will debut to the public.  With a whopping 80 mini games, a co op and competitive play for up to four players, and the new boss battles, it is sure to keep you busy!  Sure there were just as many mini games in the other Mario party’s, but the way these mini games look seems like they will be outstanding.  Of course, I have not play...

Video Games as Commercials?

We have all seen the strategic product placement in TV and movies.  Who could forget Reese’s Pieces in E.T., or Coke in Mac and ME.  But what about product placement in video games? Some games have some fairly subtle placement such as Castro Gt in EA’s Need for Speed.  Others are not so subtle… Take the SNES Cheeto’s Chester Cheetah: Too Cool to Fool, or Atari’s Kool ...

Some Online Mario Kart (7) “WTF?!” Moments – For Your Pleasure (Part 1 of 2)

Don’t let the picture fool you. This isn’t about a simple Blue Shell, Lightning Bolt, or Bullet Bill crashing into you at the worst possible moment during an online race. That’s standard fare, after all. Everyone’s been down that road before. Oh, no – this is about those rare strings of events that take place both outside and within races which seem so…unfathoma...

3DS seems to be hitting its stride: Game Gear titles, new demos, and NES titles hit the eShop
