Hands On: Kirby’s Epic Yarn is Fun Fabric
A lot can be said about the graphics potential the next Nintendo home console could, and maybe should have, but scarcely can one be negative when faced with a title that plays to the system’s strengths to create a gorgeous, engaging, and fun experience. This, in short, is what we are getting with Kirby’s Epic Yarn for the Wii. Familiar, yet different, Epic Yarn takes a creative twi...

Skyward Sword’s eclectic art style is a link to the past
That Nintendo is clearly going for a new art style with the Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is undeniable. The initial screens, and those colors…they are, if nothing else, a marked departure from the browns and greens found in Twilight Princess. What we saw at E3 was clearly a demo, complete with ever-present visual Wiimote cues onscreen, so I think it’s safe to say Link will be journey...

Miyamoto: This is NOT News
So Pikmin 3? Yeah, they’re working on it, but Miyamoto and company stress that this is not the news we should take away from the show today. So, just keep in mind, Pikmin 3 is coming, but it’s not news. Pay no attention to this.
