Nintendo inhales IGN’s Top 100 Games Of All Time List

IGN just released an updated list of the Top 100 Games Of All Time. This is a reader’s list, meaning it was created by your average game-o-holic and not a bunch of stuffy writers or editors. Reading through the list, I was amazed at the amount of Nintendo games versus titles for other consoles or PC. One could argue that Nintendo has been in the business longer than most of the other compani...

Hot Zelda watch despite being plastic

Infendo reader David writes: “I was in seattle the past two weeks and picked up this original legend of zelda game watch made by Nintendo in 1989 (thats what it says on the back). Plus its white which will make me look so rad as I play my DS Lite with it on.” [Thanks, David]

Sony Logic strikes again: No low too low for Sony

Who would have thunk it. Defending the Xbox 360 (and to a lesser extent the Wii) is what finally broke the camel’s back for me and my hate-hate relationship with Sony and led to this post. Joystiq today has dissected the latest Sony BS to hit the Intertubes, and I can only imagine the hour long shower their blogger must have had to take to wash off the smell of deceit, betrayal and utterly a...

Wii: Capturing a Market up for Grabs

The Playstation 2 launched a year before the competition and dominated sales charts with great games and DVD playback. The Xbox 360 has launched a year before the competition, but has failed to generate the same buzz from the majority of video gamers. Sony enters this generation as the two-time reigning champion, but a high cost, amongst other problems, is causing gamers to look elsewhere. This al...

Third-party "fusion" controller takes aim at Wii

Joystiq reports: “Computer and Video Games has the scoop on a new motion-sensing controller technology from In2Games codenamed “fusion.” The article says that the USB-based, multi-platform control system uses “sound waves and other technical wizardry” to sense the controllers position and orientation in space.” CV&G also claim that the third-party motion con...

No Wii marketing: What, me worry?

A very large, Rupert Murdoch-pwned corporate video game site seems unable to grasp the reason why Nintendo’s marketing push for the Wii has not materialized in full less than one month before the North American launch. Oh sure, there are a few scattered billboards here and there, and there’s that Target cabinet in place of where the GameCube once was, but to date there hasn’t bee...

Twighlight Princess still a go for GameCube

Like that disease Valtrex loves to fight, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (GC version) has resurfaced again even after an Australian pub started flinging rumors about its demise faster than an angry monkey armed with poo at the San Diego Zoo. That’s right, it’s back on the front burner with official word from Nintendo: “Online reports about the Nintendo GameCube version of...

Looks like the Nintendo World Store in NYC has Wii kiosks setup, though not playable (yet). Any New Yorkers not watching the Mets tonight want to stop by? Click the source link for (2) additional images.

So long, GameCube – Née Dolphin

Our attention was captured when Nintendo showed us how we would control games on their revolutionary new system. It was weird, it was white, and it was going to be fun. The system even had a cool name that most people liked. Just as everyone was getting comfortable with what the Revolution would entail, the name was changed to Wii. The Internet erupted in a flurry of polls, petitions, and lengthy ...

GameCube: Zelda Twilight Princess is no more?

Rumor: Unconfirmed reports suggest that GameStop received a memo today terminating the future sale of Zelda: Twilight Princess for the GameCube this December, at least at its stores. No word if the memo is substantiated and/or if it will affect the version’s chances at seeing the light of day through other retailers.
