THQ is developing “games for Revolution.” They are another in the growing list of publishers signing on with the system. Want to know the cool thing. These guys know what the system is capable of. Maybe not everything, but you gotta believe they know a lot. The company president was also quoted as saying “We’re seeing more from Nintendo now [for Revolution] than we have an ...
[Reviewed by Chris] All too often does one hear complaints about our favorite red hatted plumber being overused. However, those who call Mario out before playing Mario Superstar Baseball are the ones truly striking out. Mario’s first time on the diamond is easily on of the best in the Mario sports series. The game stars nearly all the big names from the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario, Luigi, Bowser...
We know that the DS will use Gamespy technology for it’s wi-fi infrastructure. I would imagine the same would be true for the Revolution’s service. Well News Corporation, which is the parent company of Fox, has closed a deal to purchase IGN and it’s family of sites including Gamespy for $650 million. No word on if this will affect the Nintendo relationship, but here’s to ho...
Nintendo Power is currently counting down the best 200 Nintendo games of all time. While this is insanely subjective, the “worst” category isn’t so much. NP cites Superman on the N64 as the worst Nintendo game ever. Maybe, but my money is on Jaws for the original NES… Horrible. What’s your worst game ever?
So I just got done watching Agassi beat James Blake in a killer 5 set match at the US Open. And I began to wonder: How come Nintendo systems are lacking when it comes to simulation tennis titles? Sure we got the always fun Mario titles (with Tennis Advance coming out next month), but it seems like the Xbox and PS2 have had some really good ones. And the Xbox 360 has the wicked good looking Top Spi...
[Update: Game confirmed with Famitsu scans] The always reliable Spong is reporting that a new Super Monkey Ball is on it’s way to the DS and will be playable at the Tokyo Games Show later this month. They are saying it will make full use of the stylus and will be launched in Japan this December. The Monkey Ball series has always been a blast and it should interesting to see it work on the DS...
Nintendo Power has a nice feature on Konomi’s upcoming Lost In Blue. Set for launch on September 27, this DS title should serve up some good adventure lovin’. Based off Survival Kids, the game is shaping up to be Broken Sword with a little mix of survival action. This could be the sleeper DS title of 2005.
Well, the Gamecube is pending for Zelda, there’s not enough time to talk about the DS (too busy playing the thing with all its stellar games), we’re waiting to learn more about the Revolution, and the Micro is coming out soon. So let’s talk about the new Gameboy. First off, Nintendo said the DS does not replace the Gameboy family. The system certainly does have a different feel t...
No need to wait for the Micro, Lik Sang out of Hong Kong is selling the original Gameboy’s for a cool $20 bucks including some other vintage gear. Remember, the Micro’s screen is as big/small as these badboys (2 inches), so you should still be good to go…[Thanks Karen]
What was your favorite tid-bit about last week’s Miyamoto interview? While the Zelda delay is disappointing, we we’re happy to hear that Miyamoto is more actively involved with Twilight Princess. Even more-so than Wind Waker, and that was one fine game. He even says they might add a “last minute idea.” It’s gonna be good peeps. It’s gonna be good… [Source:...
Nintendo is currently holding street parties for the Gameboy Micro some 10 days prior to it’s Japanese release. They’ve got 8-bit music blasting, vintage Mario running on some systems, and a nice little notepad as a keepsake. The pictured play-yan micro is also on showcase. Ever since Satoru Iwata inherited Hiroshi Yamauchi’s position as the president of Nintendo, it’s beco...
