BlazBlue: CS II has got your 3DS fighting game itch covered!
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOhPKwooYVI[/youtube] Super Street Figher IV: 3D edition is a pretty great 3DS launch title among the many mediocre and just plain bad. This game has proved to me right from the launch that fighting games can work great on the 3DS, so it is great to see the arrival of another one so soon. BlazBlue: Continuum Shift 2 looks to stay close to its console and ar...

I know it won’t look like the above. But what credible reports did you read over the weekend, in addition to what we already covered on the podcast?
Holly Fellmeth: An Infendo Profile
Hey, I’m Holly. I’m the sixth in a family of nine children. I attribute my love of video games to my older siblings, with whom I played NES, SNES, and N64. I continued the legacy, playing Game Cube and Wii with my younger siblings in years to come. Family and Nintendo go hand-in-hand for me. The first Nintendo system I had all to myself was a Game Boy Color with that pretty, see-throug...
Three weeks of 3D–How are your eyes doing?
The first time I played 3DS, my eyes felt tired’But since I played for three straight hours, I wasn’t surprised. The next day, the 3D felt much more natural. It reminds me of getting used to trifocal glasses; my first day with the lenses was like looking through a funhouse mirror, and the next day everything looked perfectly normal. Eyes learn quickly! Now I’m using 3D mode (set anywhe...

Is “Project Café” the codename of the successor to Wii?
More news about ‘Wii 2’ continues to flood the interwebs this week as French news website 01net is reporting that Nintendo’s next home console will be codenamed Project Café and the console’s input device will feature a six inch single input touch screen. 01net cites unnamed sources, but keep in mind that they were the same site that first broke the news of the Sony NGP. T...
Overcoming gaming anger
Playing Steel Diver has got me thinking about a problem that some gamers undoubtedly tackle at times: frustration or flat-out rage. My brothers and I can’t play Super Smash Bros. Brawl together without screaming at each other at some point. Being the older, more mature one, I generally try to keep my cool, but the unpleasant feeling (like a flame in the gut) inevitably comes, whether I let i...
Sources: Nintendo to announce HD console this summer for release later next year
Just as the Wii is seriously cooling down, Game Informer reports, citing multiple sources, that Nintendo will announce a “competitive” HD console at E3 “this summer, if not sooner.” From the report: In fact, Nintendo is already showing publishers the system in an effort to get them interested and allow them plenty of time to start developing titles in anticipation of the sy...
Further proof you’re better off playing back catalog Wii games
Metacritic can’t even list 25 in their quarterly “25 best reviewed games” list. And the top 5 are lacking to say the least. Oh well, at least Wii-only owners have a large back catalog of sweet games to play. But for those looking for new stuff, it’s slim pickings. Think it will ever pick back up?
Awesome Ocarina of Time wallpaper
Happy Thursday, y’all. Here’s a hot new wallpaper from Ocarina of Time for you to enjoy, straight outta Nintendo’s press site.
Review: Nintendogs + cats = Strange, lovable and amazing
If you’re looking for a cartridge that includes Samus Cat, classical music, 3D dog poop, birds flying at your face, Elvis hairdos, RC helicopters and an entire house themed around Super Mario Brothers…boy, have I got a game for you! Or, non-game, I should say. Though it contains excellent competition events, Nintendogs + cats’like its predecessor’is not really a game at all. It’s...
