Six Flags has announced that Wii is their pick for “Official Gaming Console of Six Flags”. This partnership will also include a sweepstakes promotion for Six Flags on Nintendo.com later this year. That’s fine, but is a Wii version of Roller Coaster Tycoon be on the horizon?

Androo from London shows us how wasteful Nintendo has been with Wii Points Cards in the UK. “2000 Wii Points comes in a full fledged White DVD case that contains a 26-page Instruction Manual, a 10-page preview of upcoming Wii games, a printed DVD shaped piece of card, and finally, a credit card sized Wii Points card. All of this seems like a terrible waste, considering you could sell the car...

Nothing was released for the Wii this week, but two new releases are out for the DS. Did anyone pick up Hotel Dusk: Room 215 or Inuyasha: Secret of the Divine Jewel?

Awww yeah .. It’s official: Super Paper Mario is coming to Wii. Better still, it’s going to be out in April! Of 2007! GoNintendo got the scoop: “We have seen lists that say Super Paper Mario was on the Cube, lists that say it was moved to the Wii, and so on. It has been a back and forth issue for a long time now. Finally we can officially lay this rumor to rest, Super Paper Mario...

The greatest Nintendo podcast of our generation, Infendo Radio, is an international hit. A mighty antenna high atop Fort Infendo sends the signal to the ether where it’s bounced back down to Earth, soaks into the ground, and is funneled through a proprietary soil-to-Internet filter. It requires a huge technological force to carry the word poopsky from Blake’s mouth to your ear, so plea...

According to NintendoGal.com, there’s only one new game released for the Virtual Console today .. and it’s a doozy. Originally released for the SNES, The Legend Of Zelda: A Link To The Past was an extremely memorable entry in the Zelda series for many people. For me, it was so entertaining that I mostly watched as a friend played, giving him tips on where to go while keeping track of l...

I’ve seen a few interviews with Shigeru Miyamoto during the build-up to the launch of Nintendo’s Wii console, but don’t recall seeing him give a speech for a while. Apparently it’s been almost eight years since he’s provided a keynote speech for GDC [read 1999’s speech here]. Let’s hope he’s ready for March 8th, when he delivers the keynote speech at...

I’m a pretty big fan of on-line comics, but my heart will always belong to print. Mario, King Koopa, and Princess Toadstool might be lurking in your Sunday paper this weekend courtesy of Guy & Rodd’s Brevity. Personally, I think their comic from yesterday is funnier than today’s. Do you have any favorite non-web comics?

Gamestop is about to begin another of their trade-in deals, according to a Kotaku post today. Apparently you can trade in your GBA SP for fifty dollars towards a new or used DS (no word on whether or not these are DS Lites or older models), and you can also trade in your Gamecube for fifty dollars towards a Wii. More interesting than the deal itself is the fact that Gamestop will probably have a f...

Infendo Radio #42 is a bit on the long side, but it’s all worthwhile conversation. I really liked this show and we had some good calls to boot. Listen in as we discuss all things Nintendo. Enjoy! Radio Feed iTunes Feed MP3

IGN previews the most recent build of Sega’s Sonic and the Secret Rings for Wii. They seem to like it… like, alot. From the article: “Running around as Sonic on the Wii is a more enjoyable hedgehog-themed experience than we have had in years. The game is blisteringly fast and only gets faster the better you play. [”¦] Besides the hugely fun implementation of the Wiimote control, ...
