Infendo Radio Episode 324: Opposing Viewpoints
Differing opinions clash in episode 324 of Infendo Radio, in which Colin Crompton, Lewis Pugh, and myself talk about what we’ve been playing (Azure Striker Gunvolt and more Mario Kart 8) and the recent Bayonetta 2 Direct. We also finally finish our list of the top 5 RPG/strategy games out on the Nintendo 3DS, though perhaps not everyone will end up satisfied by the end of it. All this and mo...
Retro Redux: NES Quest – Updates + Excuses, Excuses
Game: StarTropics Release Date (North America): Dec. 1990 Developer: Nintendo IRD Genre: Action-adventure I think it’s about time for another NES Quest update, as it’s been a while since the last vote ended and you were no doubt in suspense as to which game (out of Metroid, Super Mario Bros. 3, Maniac Mansion, and StarTropics) was the winner. As you can see, StarTropics won and did so ...

Review: Azure Striker Gunvolt (Nintendo 3DS eShop Download)
Mega Man co-creator Keiji Inafune and Inti Creates team up to release Azure Striker Gunvolt, an action platformer now available on the Nintendo 3DS eShop in North America for $14.99. Okay, enough of that. I can’t pretend to be the huge admirer of Inafune that many of you probably are; I didn’t actually grow up playing Mega Man games, so just about all I can be right now is indifferent....

Shulk joins the Smash Bros. roster…officially
[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUl1EkUJ46k[/youtube] As far as I know, there was no fanfare from Nintendo before or during today’s Smash Bros. roster reveal. Thanks for generating the hype on that one, Nintendo…not. Still, we have an awesome new trailer that accompanies the reveal of none other than Shulk, who has been long-predicted by fans as playable, especially after this...

Proactively redefine flexible
Of all delectable islands the Neverland is the snuggest and most compact, not large and sprawly, you know, with tedious distances between one adventure and another, but nicely crammed. When you play at it by day with the chairs and table-cloth, it is not in the least alarming, but in the two minutes before you go to sleep it becomes very real. That is why there are night-lights.
