New Kid Icarus trailer makes us glad Nintendo usually doesn’t narrate their games

Nintendo 3DS update available right now, includes 3D video recording
Give Mario Kart 7 a rest for awhile folks and start up your 3DS system update if you have a hankering for shooting some 3D video or stop-motion photography. Nintendo has just let loose a new 3DS system update, and with it a few new tricks up its sleeve. Aside from the ability to shoot up to ten minutes of 3D footage and create stop-motion photography, the system update also brings with it the abil...
Resident Evil Revelations to be bundled with Circle Pad Pro…In Europe
There is nothing I would like more than to have more games to play on my 3DS. I have had one heck of a time recently with Super Mario 3D Land as it has showed me just how much fun the little 3D machine really is. Ever since I got my hands on the demo of Resident Evil Revelations back in June, I have been clamoring to get my hands on a retail copy of the game, and it looks like it may come with a l...
How do you like Mario Kart 7’s choice of retro tracks?
Just a few more days until Mario Kart 7 turns your 3DS into a portable Grand Prix of insanity! Of all the games announced this year, this one tops my wish list. I love Mario Kart–every single incarnation. As fans know, most Mario Kart games since Super Circuit have featured two sets of tracks: New and Classic. We can’t judge the new courses until we play the game, but it’s fun to...
Playing with power again: Nintendo having a heck of a run this holiday
After one of its worst years since the early ’80s, Nintendo is finishing strong these last couple of months by releasing really good games that are rewarded with strong sales. The company released the marvelous Zelda: Skyward Sword this month, followed by a strong Mario outing for 3DS. Up next: Mario Kart 7, which is also garnering very positive reviews early on. What’s more, Nintendo ...
Nintendo commissions real-life Mario Karts to publicize game
Looking good. More photos after the break.
Remixed Kirby looks sharp on eShop
Aren’t Nintendo holiday seasons great? The first-party fun kicked off last week with the amazing Freakyforms, continued through the masterpiece Super Mario 3D Land, added a 3D Kirby (well, 3D 2D) today, and continues steamrolling toward Skyward Sword this Sunday and Mariokart 7 in December! Not to mention that there should be some announcement very soon about those ten free GBA games for Amb...
Super Mario 3D Land Review: The plumber still amazes
What a relief! After months of waiting, Mario’s arrived on 3DS with all cylinders firing. Super Mario 3D Land isn’t just a good portable Mario game; it’s one of the very best Mario adventures, topped only (for me, anyway) by SMB3 and Galaxy 2. Sharp, ingenious, and fun beyond belief, this game’s a feast for Mario fans as it pays tribute to characters and locales from the fr...
Mario arrives today!
The reason many of us bought a 3DS in the first place goes on sale in North America today! I’m off to pick up my copy, along with (hopefully) the Tanooki Mario keychain that was part of the preorder deal. Anyone else jumping down a green pipe today? Were any of you lucky enough to attend the event in NYC and pick up your copy early? Did this convince anyone to actually buy a 3DS this afterno...
Review: Freakyforms is joyous, crazy and addictive
Freakyforms is one of the most enjoyable games I’ve ever played. That recommendation comes with a warning, however, for my tastes often veer far from mainstream gaming. This is a plotless, easygoing game that’s all about creating and collecting. It’s got a relaxed, happy Animal Crossing vibe and your time with Freakyforms will be evenly split between the amazing creation tools an...
Charging forward–After 3D Land, what kind of plumber platformer would you like to see?
Just three days to go before the Mushroom Kingdom takes over your 3DS! After that, we still have Paper Mario, Mario Tennis, and a new Super Smash Brothers to look forward to. And then… Where would you like to see Nintendo take Mario for his next platform adventure?
