Club Nintendo Announces Elite Reward Prizes

by Brian Bentley [ Wednesday, 15th of July 2009 - 02:48 PM ]

Last year Nintendo started the Club Nintendo rewards program here in North America to much fanfare and approval. You sign up for Club Nintendo on their website and you are immediately in the program. As you purchase new games developed or published by Nintendo, you will find inserts that have a code listed. Input that code into your Club Nintendo account and after filling out a post-purchase survey, you earn points (normally 50 for a Wii game and 30 for a DS game). You can also earn points by purchasing select WiiWare titles, filling out more surveys and even placing your intent to purchase certain games. Read More...

Breath, Two, Wii, Four

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Monday, 13th of July 2009 - 09:06 PM ]

CPR to be taught via Nintendo Wii game It has been spread all over the net and news that the Nintendo Wii has been used by surgeons to hone their hand-eye coordination. Forcing the precise moves on screen for game makes them practice and perfect the minute movements that they are required to do on a day to day basis. Something I'm sure we all are glad that they do. Who wants to have long, jagged cuts that looks like you went to a butcher's shop from the 1840's? Read More...

E3 Impressions: Final Fantasy IV: The After Years

by Brian Bentley [ Friday, 12th of June 2009 - 10:16 AM ]

As much as one can be in awe of the Final Fantasy XIII and XIV trailers on the giant screen at Square Enix’s booth at E3, I kept walking around to find something else. The classic jRPG fan in me jumped for joy at the sight of Final Fantasy IV: The After Years. Already out on Wii Ware, picking up and playing Final Fantasy IV: The After Years was like running into a warm hug of an old friend.This sequel, 18 years in the making, tells the story of you, the son of the paladin Cecil and the white mage Rosa, years after the end of Final Fantasy IV. The great evil of the second moon destroyed by Cecil and Rosa’s party in the original has returned and it is now up to you to stop this evil and return peace to the once quiet planet. Read More...

E3 Impressions: New Super Mario Bros. Wii

by Brian Bentley [ Monday, 8th of June 2009 - 09:34 PM ]

A new Mario game was anticipated by the crowd as we all filed into the Nintendo E3 Media Briefing last Tuesday. Many, including myself, were looking for a new Super Mario Galaxy, which we did receive. That was not until much later in the show. Well before that announcement was the announcement of the New Super Mario Bros. Wii. More of a party game than a solo adventure, though it could be played that way, New Super Mario Bros.

E3 Hands-On Impressions of The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks

by Brian Bentley [ Saturday, 6th of June 2009 - 09:25 AM ]

Cooks, mathematicians and sports teams all employ a powerful weapon to achieve success in their chosen fields: formulas. Much will be said from E3 2009 and beyond until well after the launch of the Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks. A lot of it will probably not be flattering. Nintendo has found a graphical and stylistic formula on the Nintendo DS that is both successful and fun.At Nintendo’s booth this year at E3, I was able to avoid the long wait times associated with playing an anticipated title like The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks and go hands-on for the entire demo. The demo was split into 3 parts: Dungeon, Boss and Train. Read More...

Aggrogamer E3 Recap for June 2nd

by Michael Camacho [ Wednesday, 3rd of June 2009 - 03:58 PM ]

So day 2 has come and gone for E3 and it was a day ranging from dull to exciting. We saw what Nintendo had to offer, as well as Sony, and finally got to hit the showroom floor to start looking at all the titles. First we all had the chance to attend the Nintendo press conference and they showed off mostly what we've come to expect, which is plenty of casual games aimed towards a broader audience. Which is exactly why the slogan this year was "Everybody's Game". With titles like Wii Fit Plus, Wii Sports Resort, Style Savvy, and James Patterson's Women's Murder Club: Games Of Passion, it is easy to see that they are truly trying to reach every demographic.

Mini Ninjas at E3

by Corey Dockendorf [ Saturday, 30th of May 2009 - 12:21 AM ]

To say that I am excited about Eidos' new game Mini Ninjas is an understatement. I think I'm going to get some smoke bombs and adorn my office in samurai swords and kendo armor. One of the games that Eidos' will be debuting as a playable version at E3 is this little gem. Mini Ninjas is the story of a tiny ninja, named Hiro, and his big adventure against an evil warlord, and his quest to save the animals that have been changed into evil samurai, bringing harmony back to the world. From the screen shots it looks like you will be able to navigate through three different characters as well as take control of different animals. There are a few trailers with some game play as well as story and characters on the website. Read More...

Ghostly Multiplayer Madness

by David 'Hades' Becker [ Wednesday, 13th of May 2009 - 11:04 PM ]

Ghostbusters Game Trailer It makes total sense for this game to have a multiplayer aspect to it. Albeit, limited to four people multiplayer, but multiplayer none the less. What fun would it be if you could only have one of the Busters active by a player at a time? Especially with the others possibly being run by an AI that could be poor. Don't need another Sheva incident, if you know what I mean. The below video shows off all the fun madness of the multiplayer, as well as some of the new weapons and enemies for the Ghostbusters world. Read More...

Wii and DSi DLC for the Week of 5/4

by Brian Bentley [ Wednesday, 6th of May 2009 - 03:52 AM ]

Another week means new downloadable releases on Wii and DSi. This ultimately indicates another first party cash-in for Nintendo. A rumor I had heard and spoke out about on Total Meltdown, Episode 26, that Nintendo would use their first party mascots/characters to sell little applications on the DSi has come to fruition.A pair of applications are new to the DSi Ware shop. Featuring the Animal Crossing license and each costing 200 DSi Ware points, Nintendo released a calculator and a clock. Read More...

Wii and DSi DLC for the Week of 4/13

by Brian Bentley [ Wednesday, 15th of April 2009 - 12:09 PM ]

Sorry it’s been a couple of weeks, folks, but once again, I’m bringing Nintendo’s weekly DLC into the spotlight. This week, the big N drops two titles into the DSi Shop, one into Wii Ware and one into the Virtual Console. Everyone has good weeks and bad weeks and Nintendo is different with this week’s lineup. The “Telephone” clone is impressive in that the title can support up to 21 people online, but 500 points seems a bit pricey for a slightly improved version of Picto-chat. The Master of Illusion Express: Shuffle Games title is a great idea, for a demo. Read More...

Going Crazy Over Points At Nintendo

by Brian Bentley [ Thursday, 9th of April 2009 - 01:08 AM ]

This week Nintendo released the DSi and its accompanying application download service, the DSi Shop. Akin to the Wii Shop Channel, consumers will be able to purchase and download software directly to their DSi systems with the price of the software ranging from free to 800+ DSi Points (800 points is roughly $8). The first round of “DSi Ware” includes an opera-powered web browser (free) and 5 games with WarioWare: Stacked! (500 DSi Points) as the noticeable standout of the bunch. Read More...
