This Epic Mickey cut scene is epic long

Hands On: Lost in Shadow
For those who haven’t heard of this unique title heading to the Wii from Hudson Entertainment; Lost in Shadow is a puzzle platformer that puts you in the shadows. You are the personification of a young boy’s shadow who is, in essence, trying to climb a tower to reunite with his body. To get to his body he has to climb a giant tower before nightfall, and the only way is to interact with...
What made GoldenEye 007 so good?
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNdpXcVrYmo[/youtube] Was it the controls? The first of its kind on consoles? Something else? Whatever it was, I’m not so sure developer Eurocom will be able to revive the series on Wii, especially after reviewing their unimpressive portfolio.
GoldenEye to include golden Classic Controller
Fans won’t receive a Golden Gun when they pick up the $70 GoldenEye Classic Controller Pro bundle, but they will receive—as the name implies—a Classic Controller Pro. Pricey! The regular version will retail for the usual $50. Excited?

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZpeDQBw3xg[/youtube] This is a compilation video of all the well known, or known shortcuts and tricks that are possible in Super Mario Galaxy 2. Surprisingly, I learned a trick or two from watching it. It’s a great video and I didn’t even think to do some of the stuff that is in this video. Pretty cool right?
Is the Wii done as far as third parties go?
Shocking Alberto, an admittedly satisfied Wii owner, asks the question: Is the Wii done as far as third parties go? “Consider this: The biggest PS3/360 third party release this summer? Take your pick: Red Dead Redemption, Splinter Cell, Lost Planet 2, etc,” he writes. “The biggest third party Wii games? Trauma Team (one of my GOTYs) and Arc Rise Fantasia… The fact of the ma...
Would you pay for HD remastered Nintendo games?
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jiMBnzi0P4[/youtube] Infendo Nation, I have a confession. I want to play Zelda: Wind Waker on my new TV. But I want to play it in wide-screen at a higher resolution. My question to you: Will Nintendo re-release their hit games on their first HD console, a la the Sly Collection for PS3? I hope so.
Does this Sonic 4 trailer do anything for you?
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CiFKpxq3jtg[/youtube] I missed this video when it released in May. But I heard first-hand accounts from colleagues that the actual game controlled poorly at E3. Too bad Sonic’s past is as checkered as his dirt. It makes it hard for good folks like you and I when deciding whether to give Sega our money or not. Well, sorta. You can always write them off ...
