  • Animal Crossing Wii Announced

    Animal Crossing Town Folk was officially announced today by Nintendo at E3. It will be out by the end of the year. Some other details announced: You can go to town now and do a variety of things. There is a beauty salon, where you can put a Mii mask on your Animal Crossing character.…

  • Captain Rainbow

    It looks weird, so I’m interested and it’s being developed by Skip Ltd., who made Giftpia, this weird Gamecube game that I imported and tried to play even though I know absolutely no Japanese whatsoever. It would have been cool, though, the premise of the game was you overslept for your coming of age ceremony…

  • Wario Land: Shake It!

    I’m seriously all for 2D gaming making a comeback. These animations seem awesome, I just feel like when it comes to 2D there is a higher level of detail involved in the games. I’ll definitely be picking this one up, I never actually played any of the Wario games (except for one on the Gameboy…

  • Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King Review

    Before I actually begin this review I think I should make it clear that I really didn’t like Crystal Chronicles. As a fan of the more “traditional” Final Fantasy games, I found Crystal Chronicles to be extremely lacking, just a half-assed attempt to put a “Final Fantasy” title on the Gamecube. So, when I heard…

  • WiiWare Launches Today

    WiiWare, the Wii servies offering downloadable games and applications specifically designed and developed for the Wii, launched today. The games vary in price, from just 500 Wii Points to 1500 Wii Points. The six games available are: Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King for 1500 Wii Points LostWinds for 1000 Wii Points…

  • Earthbound Bound For Virtual Console?

    Well, it looks like it could be happening…I never thought it would (Nintendo of America refused to bring over any of the GBA Mother games so I figured it was the end of the series for me), but it looks like Nintendo might be bringing Earthbound stateside via the Virtual Console. The ESRB has recently…

  • Super Smash Bros. Brawl Initial Impressions

    I bought Brawl last night and since then have played the game for just over 10 hours. I’ve mostly played the Subspace Emissary as well as one run through classic mode with Snake and 20 of the single player events. I also played a quick online game with Gmoney and another one with a random…

  • Opoona Preview

    I like how he has to keep up with a T.V. drama about a stray cat. I’m totally wanting this game. I also found it interesting that the Final Fantasy XII guy is doing the music for Opoona, too.

  • Okami on Wii

    The game looks really nice running on the Wii. Also, it runs in full 16:9 mode, which doesn’t matter to me but might be a selling point for a lot of others out there. I think I might even pick up the game again. Maybe, just maybe, I’ll actually finish it this time, too. Why…

  • Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World

    IGN has a nice preview up for Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World. Dawn of the New World is a sequel to the original Tales of Symphonia for the GCN. It’s set two years after the events of the original. Something has gone wrong with the unification of the worlds. There should be…

  • Virual Console Update – Kirby 64 and Psychosis

    This weeks VC updates are, I assume, pretty radical. I assume so because I haven’t actually played either of the games, so I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. Kirby 64 was one I always wanted to play but never got around to buying…I guess now is my chance. Psychosis…I’ve never heard of, but…

  • Mario Kart Wii Trailer

    This new trailer from GDC just doesn’t do it for me. Maybe it’s that ridiculous wheel accessory…or maybe it’s Wario riding around on a motorcycle instead of a kart…I just…I don’t know. Double Dash pissed me off, the fucking computer cheated so bad. I could get over everything else but…I hate the A.I. in that…
