  • Star Wars: Force Unleashed

    Seriously, I don’t think the force has ever been more radical in a video game. I love him tossing the guys into the window, the window breaking and then the vacuum of space sucking them all out. I also like him picking up one soldier, hitting the other soldiers around him, and one of the…

  • Opoona, a “Lifestyle Role-Playing Game”, Coming to North America

    When I saw this trailer for Opoona I thought there was no way in hell it would ever make it to North America. It just didn’t seem like something that would sell big in the U.S. and I assumed the developers would think the same and not bother to release it here. I was awesomely…

  • Pokemon Boss Battle in Brawl

    It seems like the only news lately is Brawl news, but most of it is pretty exciting. Basically, the video is just Starfox getting his ass kicked by a giant Pokemon. I don’t know the Pokemon’s name…Rayquaza? The amazing part, though, is that I have to confirm my age to watch this…which makes no sense…

  • Super Smash Bros. Brawl Japanese Trailer

    With the Japanese release only a few days, the trailer from Super Smash Bros. Brawl has leaked out. I thought this was pretty awesome and radical. Something about Pikachu and Samus fighting together made me happy.

  • No More Heroes Initial Impressions

    It’s been a big week for me in gaming. First, Advance Wars, now No More Heroes. I haven’t played the game nearly enough, but from the little bit I have played (just two bosses in), No More Heroes is very awesome. You play as Travis Touchdown who, after winning a beam katana (lightsaber) in an…

  • Rumored New Castlevania DS Screenshots

    New Castlevania DS screenshots have surfaced, possibly showing a follow-up to Iga’s most recent Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin. It looks like this newest Castlevania might have a female protagonist. What’s even more interesting is on the title screen there is a Wii menu item, indicating some sort of Wii connectivity. Does this mean their is…

  • Famitsu Gives Super Smash Bros Brawl Perfect Score

    Before seeing this, I wasn’t really super pumped about Brawl…I mean I’m obviously going to get it on day one and I know it’s going to be a great game, but I wasn’t foaming at the mouth to get it, I wasn’t thinking about it every waking moment. This, however, has changed my mind. Famitsu…

  • Sheik is Back in Brawl

    The Smash Bros. Dojo revealed today that Sheik will be making a return appearance in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Sure, Sheik didn’t make an appearance in Twilight Princess, but that doesn’t matter, he/she is too awesome to leave out. Also on the site are a number of new screen shots of Sheik in action, as…

  • Super Smash Bros. Brawl Delayed

    The official Smash Bros. Dojo site announced today that the Super Smash Bros. Brawl release date has been pushed back from Feb 10th to March 9th. Due to delays in the completion of Super Smash Bros. Brawl, we’ve had to change the release date of the game to Sunday, March 9th. I deeply apologize to…

  • Wii Shortages Are Not Cool Says Reggie

    Poor Nintendo…selling out of Wii’s has been causing huge problems for them. Constant shortages of Nintendo’s Wii console and a huge demand for its DS Lite are causing all sorts of planning issues for the company, Nintendo’s Reggie Fils-Aime said recently in an interview. The level of demand we are facing complicates all of our…

  • Castle of Shikigami III Coming to Wii

    Aksys Games announced today that it would be bringing vertical-shmup Castle of Shikigami III to the Wii next year. Vertical-shmups are always cool, so I’m really looking forward to this one. The Wii needs more stuff like this. “10 memorable characters” in a vertical-shmup should be interesting. The whole press release is after the link…

  • Atlus Announces Baroque For Wii And PS2

    Atlus announced their newest North American release today, Baroque. It’s a dungeon-crawling RPG for both the Wii and PS2 (the PS2 is still totally “in”). They go on to describe the game as being dark, challenging, and totally immersive. Sounds like fun and I’m glad to see the Wii is getting in on the action.…
