Reuters, live from Tokyo: Nintend...

Nintendo Power September 2007 Preview
Normally Nintendo Power wouldn’t be worthy of a preview post before it hits news stands (let alone any post), but given the mag’s juicy, early details on numerous games last month, the nerd in me anxiously awaits the September issue. Featured articles include: Preview of Soulcalibur Legends (Wii adventure game) Big Brain Academy profile Preview: Tomb Raider Anniversary (Wii) Preview: C...
