Image demographic: Interracial couples who keep consoles as close to their couch as possible. While effective, I’ve always thought the Wii lifestyle promo images were pretty silly. Video Lamer adds their parody on what demographic Nintendo might be targeting with each image.
Want to get dizzy? Try completing the Wii version of Twilight Princess and then go play the GameCube version — they’re complete mirror images of one another! Said Shiggy: “Although Link is [traditionally] left-handed, at E3 we noticed people seemed to be using the right Wii controller to swing his sword. That’s why we decided to make Link right-handed. The interesting thing...
If you listened really hard today, you would have heard one less exclusive title hitting the shelves for Sony in the next gen. And it’s a cash cow if I’ve ever seen one. Via EuroGamer, we learn that Activision has confirmed it will bring Guitar Hero to “every significant new format” in 2007. Guitar Hero DS? Guitar Hero Wii? My Mii avatar rocking it out old school to Megadet...
This just in: A Wii console, armed with an Uzi and covered with gang tattoos, was seen carjacking an Inferno sportscar over on West 43rd and Vine… Ok fine, so I made that up. But a little bird told me today that Reggie Fils-Aime let slip he would be talking with Take Two Interactive about M-rated titles for the Wii. Take Two is of course the publisher behind GTA, as well as a number of other...
There are less than two months until Wii is unleashed upon the Americas. Nintendo confirmed that their first party titles in the US will retail for no more than $50. If recent updates at EBgames and Best Buy are any indication, it looks like the third party publishers won’t be slapping on the $10 ‘next gen tax’ as seen on PS3 and Xbox 360 titles. Now that we’re getting a be...
Before the controversy of Twilight Princess being designed for GameCube only to be ported over to the Wii and released for Wii first, the GameCube endured perhaps the biggest controversy in Zelda history: Celda Link. At SpaceWorld 2000, while showing off GameCube tech demos (then known as Dolphin), Nintendo revealed a video of a fight sequence between a realistic, older Link and a dark and evil Ga...
I am insanely jealous right now. Southern California resident Tracey Clark, a photographer, blogger and mother of two, was selected by Nintendo as one of the first Wii Ambassadors, and had her Wii Party on Sept. 17. The proof is in our post below, as well as in her blog entry that readers have linked to in the comments section. Her comments, however, were so cool that I decided to post. “So,...
What the deuce are these?! Viral campaign? The Wii parties mentioned last month starting early? A few Wii’s fell off the back of a truck? Is that level 4-1 in the background?! Anyone who can shed some light on these photos please stand up. Check the link below for more pics from this “Nintendo Party.” [Thanks, MisterInvisible] UPDATE: Mom blogger [Picture This] is one of the firs...
I may reside in the U.S.A., but I’ll dish out plenty of good Nintendo related news to our cousins oversees if and when it comes along. Today, my Old World friends, is one of those days filled with European love from the Big N. Via GameIndustry.biz, that business-y pub based in the U.K., we hear that Nintendo UK general manager David Yarnton has promised Europe more stock for Wii this holiday...
The heading of this post has been murmured by Infendo forum members and Wii fanboys countless times, I’m sure, but today it was given some additional clout by Hirokazu Hamamura, the editor-in-chief of Japanese video game supermag Famitsu. “Wii definitely could become the most popular console of all time. Non-gamers can see how fun it is just by looking at people playing it, and that...
Looks like Mario and a new bearded friend have started a painting outfit. Koopas in pipes bug.
Go Nintendo has revealed some new details on Resident Evil Wii, or Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles as it’s now known. Keep these in your rumor file because they came from the Capcom forums, though Go Nintendo swears they confirmed them. The game is split up into chapters similar to Outbreak, though hopefully the similarities end there since many RE fans and reviewers found that game to be...
