Conduit 2 announced for Wii, to be published by Sega

Second time’s the charm? Kind of baffling, really, but maybe they’ll have the same kind of sequel semi-success that Ubisoft had with Red Steel 2. [Image, source both 1up.com]

New Game Get checks in with Wario

Fairly quiet week as far as physical releases are concerned, but WiiWare, Virtual Console, and DSiWare sure are hopping.  WarioWare DIY came out yesterday, anyone get it or plan to get the WiiWare showcase title?

PAX East: Two games that belong on Wii

While touring the PAX East exhibition floor, we had the pleasure of seeing two amazing games destined for much success: Limbo and Puzzle Quest 2. David labeled PQ2 a must buy that’s all but pre-ordered for his DS Lite, while I couldn’t stop gushing over Limbo, a simple black and white Xbox Live Arcade 2D platformer that deals in nothing but light, shadow and a pair of beady white eyes ...

Question: Is there any way to transfer DSi and WiiWare games?

Good day, clever, handsome and intelligent Infendo readers. Is there anyway DSi and Wii owners can transfer their downloaded games to a newly purchased system? Could be by legal means or a work around’whatever. For any recent XL upgraders (or anyone who’s had to switch Wiis), what does the existing knowledge base say?

Netflix Wii discs begin to ship to customers

Netflix has shipped Wii playback discs to many of their customers.  Did you order one?  Let us know when it arrives and what you think of movie streaming on your Wii!

Mario Galaxy 2 box art is bursting with color

T-minus two months until lift off (May 25).

The Final Word: Why the N64 wasn’t a huge success (and how the next Wii can be)

Looking back on Nintendo systems, it’s easy to see why the NES, GameBoy, DS, and Wii were such successes. The NES had Super Mario Bros. GameBoy had Tetris. DS had Nintendodogs. Wii had Wii Sports. In other words, they all had must-have launch games. But to get theses games, you had to buy the hardware. Conversely, it’s easy to see why the GameCube never really took off, despite its pot...

Review – Data East Arcade Classics for Wii

[Guest review by Casey Willis] Data East Arcade Classics uses the broadest definition of the word classic (re: old).  Majesco lovingly presents these 15 classic games against a green backdrop which I can only assume was designed by an intern.  Actually, that’s not fair to interns.  Some of them really work hard and try to prove themselves for little or no play.  I was thinking more of th...

New Game Get seeks out Cave Story, Red Steel 2, and DSi XL

FINALLY, Cave Story comes out for WiiWare. Is it worth the wait and 1200 points? The big release coming this Sunday will be the new DSi XL. Along with it, Nintendo is releasing America’s Test Kitchen and WarioWare DIY. And now Nintendo is putting out Game & Watch titles for download, kinda makes me want a DSi. The other big DS releases this week are Shin Megami Tensei and Dawn of Heroes....

Miyamoto “devoting” most of his time to education

Instead of Mario and Zelda, Miyamoto says he’s spending more of his time on edutainment now. You know how it goes: you get old, so you try to make up lost time by dedicating yourself to more important causes. In Miyamoto’s case, that would be education. “That is maybe the area I am devoting myself (the) most,” he told The Associated Press this week, when asked about his des...

Crossfire Pistol Elegantly Designed, but Misfires

Wii owners are long since familiar with the “Plastic Plague” of crappy gaming peripherals that have come our way.  Even Nintendo themselves are guilty, creating a plastic wheel, and the infamous “zapper,” both little more than plastic molds to cram your remote into.  For me, the former always left something to be desired – the official plastic shell places the trig...
