Don’t tell me what you saw when you watched this Skyward Sword video, I don’t want to know
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6DGivDvg9k[/youtube] I sure hope you like the above cinematic for Skyward Sword. I even hope that you learned a little about the game because of it. As for me, am planning on staying far, far away. Yes, I may have uploaded the video for you all to enjoy, but honestly, I don’t want to know anymore about the game than I already do for the simple fact of...

Dreamworks, Previews and a Pokedex upgrade highlight this week’s downloads
No huge downloadable games this week, unless you’re a big fan of Minesweeper, Side Pocket, or House. For non-game applications and 3D videos, however, there are three noteworthy new arrivals: Dreamworks Animation recently signed a deal with Nintendo to bring 3D short films to 3DS, and this week kicks things off with The Pig Who Cried Werewolf, based on characters from the Shrek franchise.

My Zelda is __________ this big!!!
Nintendo PR folk are calling Zelda: Skyward Sword their biggest video game project ever. Some 50-100 hours of gameplay, according to Miyamoto. Here’s hoping the majority of it will deliver, and keep the masses engaged for more than the paltry 10% effort they usually put into these things. (wink, wink)

Resident Evil Revelations, or the Resident Evil game for 3DS that isn’t a complete rip-off now has an official release date. From what I played of the game in it’s E3 build, I can most definitely say that this title will be something 3DS owners will want to have in there collection. Mercenaries 3D was a nice distraction and had some fun, addictive beat-the-high-score style gamep...
After 25 years, Zelda still has staying power
What’s the most-wanted game this holiday? According to Nielsen Research, it’s Modern Warfare 3. Not far behind, however, is Zelda: Skyward Sword at number six, the only game from the ’80s to make the top 20. In fact, it’s one of only two games from the ’80s or ’90s, the other being Madden Football. Not a big surprise, I know, but the staying power of Zelda still...
Nintendo has released a list of all the North American Wii million sellers
…and there are a ton of games on the list! Ok, so not all of the titles can be considered triple A. Zumba Fitness: Join the Party selling 1.42 million…really? But most titles that made the cut are most certainly deserving of being in your collection. A few surprises: Metroid Prime 3/Prime Trilogy not even making the list? Really North America?! Also, how is it that great party games li...
Based on research: Nintendo indie game fans are kind of screwed
I think this research done by Ron Carmel, co-creator of World of Goo, shows that Wii/DS/3DS/Wii-U owners are kind of screwed when it comes to future indie developer games on Nintendo platforms, especially if you look at this graph. Sure, his post is about developers migrating away from XBLA, but it goes on to show data that getting your game to market with Nintendo is extremely difficult (but st...
Nintentunes: Short but sweet edition
So as you may have noticed, I have been absent from the site this week and I’m here to tell you why. My girlfriend of five and a half years and I split up recently, so on top of moving and working, I have been trying to keep up with my studies and haven’t had much time to post. Now that I am all settled in and again have Internet access, I can’t wait to dive back in to the world ...
