Miyamoto May Never Put His 3DS Down Again
Back in April, I had reported that Miyamoto was a tiny bit jealous that he did not create Angry Birds. Unfortunately, we have not seen a true successor to the addicting game of Fowl VS Pork, but we will see Angry Birds on a Nintendo console soon. Rovio has announced that an Angry Birds Trilogy will be available on the Xbox 360, PS3, and The Nintendo 3DS. The trilogy will include the original tit...
Could Xbox be Banned from the US?
I know what you are thinking, this isn’t an article about Nintendo. You are right, it isn’t…at least not directly. In 2010, Motorola sued Microsoft for infringement of 16 patents. I won’t bore you with the details, however Motorola had requested that Microsoft cease using their patented technology and provide compensation for past infringement. Needless to say, Microsoft...
Nintentunes: the kind of not really Nintendo edition
I used to be a fanboy, but there are too many games to enjoy that my perspective has since changed. Nintendo will always be my favorite video game company because of their ability to bring a product to market that is above all else a fun experience, but even still, as a gamer I want to experience as many of those fun moments as possible, even if it isn’t on a Nintendo console. With that said...
What if Nintendo Rebranded Themselves as…Nintendo?
Nintendo has always been one of the best systems around, that is a given. It has stood the test of time and weathered the passing of great systems such as Sega, Neo Geo, Turbo Graphix 16, Atari, and Watara Supervision. However, over the past few years it seems to have been lost in the shadow of the XBOX 360 and Playstation 3. It seemed for a while that Nintendo might not be able to keep up with...
Nintentunes: The anti-Nintendo edition
Video game music has come a long way from the bleeps and bloops that populated most game at the inception of the medium, and seems only right to take a look back at not only game that have appeared on Nintendo consoles, but ones that have appeared on consoles that do things that Ninten-don’t (see what I did there?). With that said, I hope you enjoy this weeks walk down memory lane in this ed...
With motion now standard and when equally priced, Xbox 360 more popular than Wii
The Wii has seen quite the drop in demand recently. After dominating the competition for the first four years of its life, the game-changing console has been relegated to second place in America for the last 12 months (give or take a month or two) behind Xbox 360. In other words, when equally priced at $199, Americans slightly favor Xbox 360, at least at this point in the Wii’s lifecycle. On...
Exclusive: In an Xbox Live world, Nintendo defends online Wii service
Nintendo’s online service is better than most hardened gamers give it credit for. At least that’s what company spokesman Kit Ellis told Infendo in an interview last week. When asked how the popularity of Xbox Live and PSN have encouraged Nintendo to rethink their online strategy in planning their next console, Ellis turned the conversation back to the present. “The Wii is here no...
Infendo Radio 191 gets International
Netflix is finally heading up to the great white north – Canada. What does this mean for Wii owners? Will console streaming be available internationally?

Halo-maker signs deal with Activision, could bring games to Wii
Once a wholly owned subsidiary of Microsoft, the now independent Bungie Studios announced a 10 year publishing deal with Activision today. As you’ll remember, Activision releases games on all consoles, including the top-selling Wii, so it’s likely we’ll see a Bungie game on Nintendo hardware at some point in the future. It won’t be Halo, a game Microsoft retained. But it wi...
Majority of readers own more than one console, but not majority of gamers
After nearly 1000 votes, 59 percent of Infendo readers say they own more than one current generation console, which include Wii, Xbox 360, and PS3. Given that the majority of Infendo readers are gaming enthusiasts, that’s less than one might expect. It’s also soft proof that the majority of gamers only own a single console, because let’s face it: video games can be expensive, bot...
