Without a doubt, one of the most highly anticipated Wii U games has to be Rayman Legends, the sequel to one of the best platformers of this generation, Rayman Origins. The medieval theme, improved graphics and physics engine, and the all new co-op mode using the Wii U GamePad makes the game very different from its predecessor. I was lucky enough to get my hands on one level of Rayman Legends during my time at the Wii U Experience event in New York City. The level of Rayman...
Probably the least popular game at the Wii U Experience event in New York was a new karaoke game called SiNG, developed by Freestyle Games, the makers of DJ Hero. It makes sense why nobody wanted to play SiNG. Put a bunch of introverted nerds in a room and everyone is gonna stay away from the singing game. Luckily, I am not an introverted nerd, I’m an extroverted professional. I had no problem getting up and trying SiNG on Wii U. Here is what I thought. What makes SiNG...
We have all had this debate, Mew vs. Mewtwo, Groudon vs. Kyogre, Shaymin vs. Uxie. Actually I am sure that almost all of you have never had this debate with anyone, ever. But for the few, and quite possibly insane, of us that have argued over these questions Nintendo has the solution. A full on battle to the faint! An official bracket tournament has been set up to determine the greatest Legendary Pokemon from generation 1 through 4. Currently there is preliminary fighting...
Just like its predecessor, the Wii U is pretty complicated to fully understand. For the Wii, Wii Sports did the best job of introducing players to the Wii Remote and all that it can do. NintendoLand hopes to do the same for the Wii U GamePad. In NintendoLand, Nintendo’s biggest franchises come together in an amusement park with twelve attractions, each one showing off something unique about the Wii U GamePad. At the Wii U Experience in New York City, five of...
When it has come to systems like Nintendo DS and Wii, WarioWare was always there to help demonstrate what makes these systems unique. Although Wario and pals missed the opportunity on Nintendo 3DS, they are back on Wii U in a new game tentatively called Game & Wario. From the looks of it, there will be no microgames to found in this new game starring the WarioWare characters. From what I was told, Game & Wario will feature ten minigames, four of which were...
Upon its release this Fall, the Wii U will have plenty of games to satisfy the urges of any gamer. Ubisoft has plenty of ground covered, including a first person shooter called ZombiU. I got my hands on ZombiU’s single player mode while at the Wii U Experience event in New York City. Here are my thoughts on the ten or so minutes I survived. The premise behind ZombiU is that you play as a survivor of a terrible plague that has hit the city of London. Your goal...
Square Enix has announced that the Kingdom Hearts 3D demo is available for download in the Nintendo eshop. The demo takes place in Traverse Town and gives players an idea of the challenges they will face throughout the game. Sora will meet up with Neku and encounter the new enemy type for Dream Drop Distance, the Dream Eaters who are split up into two categories : Spirits, which are allies and Nightmares which will serve as enemies. Certain spirits such as Meow Wow and Tama...
As it was revealed in all three Nintendo Direct broadcasts this evening, the next Super Smash Bros. game is going to be a collaboration between Nintendo, Project Sora, and Bandai Namco. All of these teams will be working hard to bring the next Super Smash Bros. game to Wii U and Nintendo 3DS. The famous Smash Bros. game director Masahiro Sakurai and Bandai Namco’s Masaya Kobayashi have provided some interesting words to fans eagerly awaiting the games. These are...
As E3 came and went, many of us are still puzzled as to which company had the best press conference. I personally have been hearing a mix of people saying it was either Ubisoft, Sony, or Nintendo. Rather than let my biases for different companies decide the winner, I decided to go a different route for 2012. I created a grading scale which determined for me who would be the best. The details of the scale are below, but as you can see, the big points were awarded for...
Holy Crap, there’s a lot of new coming out! I didn’t say a lot of interesting news, but a lot of news nonetheless. We figured that instead of making you search the site for all your E3 news, we’d do you the favor of putting it all into one post! Below you’ll find all of the articles we’ve posted while covering E3. As more posts are written and published we’ll continue to add them here and update this post. Now with that out of the way...
