I didn’t independently verify this report, but if accurate, Nintendo’s net income is near a 30 year low, 27-years to be exact. Meaning Nintendo hasn’t made this little money since before the NES boom of 1985. Holy, shnikes! Although I’m no fan of the 3DS’at least in its immediate state’I take no heart in this. This is not good news at all for fans of Nintendo games, of whic...
While not everyone may be fans of traditional RPGs, there are many a gamer up in arms at the fact that they will not be able to play the games they wish to play. This is nothing new to gamers; in fact, I can remember at time when MOST of the game I wanted to play were only available to the Japanese speaking gamers among us. Shin Megami Tensei, Contra Spirits, Fire Emblem, Akumajo Dracula XX…...

System price cuts are nice and all, but you gotta lower game prices too if you want to be popular, says one market researcher. “Lower 3DS hardware prices only address part of the problem,” says Billy Pidgeon to Industry Gamers. “I would like to see Nintendo cut the retail price of packaged software to a range of $20 to $25 for the 3DS,” he added. Currently 3DS games are p...
Nintendo will soon relabel Super Paper Mario, Super Mario Galaxy, Punch-Out, and Mario Strikers Charged as $20 “select” games, says the rumor mill. In case you missed one of the 4-star plus rated games, you’re Wii will thank you for jumping. The original four Select games were Mario Super Sluggers, Wii Sports (replaced by Mario Kart Wii as the Wii’s bundled game), The Legen...
I’m a patient Nintendo fan. I forgive their occasional blunders, confident amazing things will eventually materialize. Much of that patience comes from also being a lifelong Disney fan, watching the Mouse veer from greatness (Space Mountain, Beauty and the Beast) to failure (Black Hole, Mars Needs Moms) over and over again. Nintendo and Disney share rare qualities. Using top talent to mix te...

Do you own a DSi? Can you create art that doesn’t look like an easel exploded? Then boy do I have news for you. Nintendo has jus...
Oh, the memories!
As many of you may have noticed, the Infendo.com hamsters that keep our servers at headquarters running were on strike. Can you believe that they demanded more shredded carrots and celery sticks? The nerve! Contracts have been signed, cages have been cleaned, and your work week is about to be kicked of in style, Nintentunes style.

Aside from the occasional Virtual Console or WiiWare title, I am sad to say that my Wii has received as much action this summer as the pimply kid on prom night. Thankfully there are  titles in the pipeline such as Skyward Sword and Rhythm Heaven to fight for my hard earned free time. Although no definitive release date has been confirmed for Rhythm Heaven stateside, the game has already released...
