Nintendo’s E3 press conference has just finished for another year and with it comes a stack of Ninty goodness. The biggest news of all though was the announcement of the Wii U and the fancy new controller that comes with it.
For those who didn’t stay up last night, the Wii U is Nintendo’s next generation home console. It’ll come with HD graphics and a powerful but slightly ugly-looking controller that has the ability to play fully-fledged console games. Continue Reading…

What a gamble. You know, remaking Super Mario 64 for the DS is one thing, but recreating what’s considered as the greatest video game of all time for the 3DS is just pure insanity. In recent years we’ve all caught onto the fact that Nintendo loves recycling their older games, however, perhaps they’ve gone too far this time.
Most gamers have such fond, and dare I say, rose-tinted memories of The Legend of Zelda Continue Reading…
Steel Diver was one of the most engaging titles on offer at Nintendo Australia’s nationwide 3DS tour. Although slow-paced submarine battles sound boring, Steel Diver provides players with a never-before-seen and intensive underwater battle experience.
If you’re willing to actually give Steel Diver a chance, you’ll find an engrossing submarine game. Players must guide a sub of their choice through a stack of levels while Continue Reading…
I had a lot of fun tending to the needs of my puppies in the original Nintendogs, so when Nintendo announced that a sequel would be coming to the 3DS, I, unlike the many other so-called fans out there, got quite excited. You see, many Nintendo gamers didn’t give the original Nintendogs the chance, or even the respect, it actually deserved. Loads of people who were new to Nintendo at the time welcomed the virtual puppies into their lives with open Continue Reading…
It seems like Capcom pump out new Resident Evil titles all time; however, the truth is that the majority of these are actually just spin-offs or re-releases. Nintendo gamers have become particularly familiar with Capcom’s RE spin-offs and re-releases over the years.
The Nintendo 64 was graced with an updated version of Resident Evil 2, the GameCube received the stunningly good-looking Resident Evil Zero, the Wii got Continue Reading…
Alright, I’ll admit it, I suck at fighting games. Street Fighter, Tekken, King of Fighters, you name it and I’ve probably sucked at it. Sadly, about the only fighting game I don’t suck at is Smash Bros. and from what I’ve heard, most fighting fans don’t even consider that to be a real fighting game.
For years now I’ve tried to train myself in the art of 2D and 3D fighting games but I still just suck at them. And do you know why I still suck at them? It’s because the Continue Reading…
I’m not even sure where to begin with this one. Nintendo’s Mii characters and levels mixed together with its lovable Pilotwings series? Sure, why not? At least that’s what the folks at Nintendo thought.
So if you haven’t figured it out by now, this new entry in the Pilotwings franchise is entirely based on Nintendo’s latest intellectual property – Mii. The cheeky Continue Reading…
