First real look at Pandora’s Tower

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6-_-FDR8ZU[/youtube] Pandora’s Tower to me is like one of your best friends girlfriends. You may think that she looks great and has a lot of character, but your not sure when or if she will ever be available. Ok well it’s not exactly like that but you get the point. With the late May Japanese release inching ever closer, new gameplay videos have...

BIT.TRIP SAGA comes to 3DS

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0Pl4sPurck[/youtube] Indy game studio Gaijin Games struck gold with the BIT.TRIP series for WiiWare with simple but addictive gameplay and wonderful “interactive soundtracks.” If you missed out on the games the first time and happen to own a 3DS I have news that may interest you. BIT.TRIP SAGA will be a compilation of a six (BEAT, RUNNER, VOI...

The weekend starts here…

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bt64uyAtrDU[/youtube] Oh, yeah! Here’s what I’m playing this weekend (spoken in my best nerd-brag accent). What are you playing this weekend?

Which games keep you playing into the night?

Darn Pokemon! I’ve got homework to do, you know! I own more than enough entries in the Pokemon series for me and my three younger siblings to each have our own to play…at the same time. Add to that the ability to trade Pokemon almost freely, and this becomes one of the most addicting series of all time. So we want to know: which games do you find hard to tear your eyes away from?

How would you design Nintendo’s new console?

Nintendo is planning to fully unveil its new console, code-named Project Cafe and/or “Stream,” on June 7. Until then, let’s speculate, shall we? What would you name the thing if you were Nintendo? What physical features would you give it (both controller and console)? What gameplay, media, and online features would it boast? Let’s hear it, Infendo.

Which Zelda game has the most dungeons?

I’ve been replaying A Link to the Past on my new AGS-101. Great game for a great handheld. I couldn’t help but notice, however, there are a lot of dungeons, especially early in the game. Certainly more than recent DS Zeldas. That said, which Zelda game do you remember having the most dungeons? The fewest?

Poll: Do you play games while sick?

I ask because I was sick this week — not as sick as the pictured kid — but sick enough where I put saving Hyrule on hold. When I’m sick, I’m all about passive entertainment. What about you: {democracy:143}

Tales of the Abyss 3D headed to North America

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXuoraXNwNE&feature=channel_video_title[/youtube] I have a soft spot in my heart for the Tales franchise ever since Tales of Symphonia helped me scratch my JRPG itch when it first released on the Gamecube. Something about these Namco Bandai made RPGs really resonate with me. If you enjoy these type of games and have a 3DS, I have some good news for you. ...

Super Mario in real life

Is the world ready for” Wii 2″?

This weekend I spent most of my free time finishing Portal 2, Valve Software’s brilliant new first person puzzler. While playing, I couldn’t help but to think of how awesome puzzles from Portal 2 would be in say Skyward Sword. Problem is, the Wii simply does not have the horsepower to do the things that Portal 2 does. Once the credits began to roll, and the endgame song began to play ...

Nintendo surprised by fast dropping 3DS sales. I’m not.

This is what happens when you release your most expensive handheld ever with no killer-app and stale technology (stereoscopic 3D): “Nintendo 3DS has not been selling as expected since the second week, and this is not just in the Japanese market but also in the United States and Europe, where no direct impact from the great earthquake has occurred,” Nintendo president Satoru Iwata admited Tue...

Wii no longer worth stealing?

Mike from Kotaku was robbed over the weekend. The perpetrators took all his home entertainment electronics — including Xbox 360, PS3, 42″ TV — with exception to one, his Wii. “Why did criminals hell-bent on stripping my entertainment center bare of every piece of electronics bypass the little white box with the glowing blue light on it?” he writes. “Was it an in...
