Wii Warm Up: Spore (Heroes)
What? Spore on Wii? We thought it had disappeared completely, and after Spore failed to take the world by storm when it was released, we ... well, we kind of forgot all about it. Will Wright didn't forget, though, and Spore for Wii has resurfaced, only now it's going to be Spore Heroes and not a ...
DSMetronome makes your handheld more useful
Why clutter up your house with a real metronome when you can use your trusty DS to achieve the same effect? Thanks to the homebrew community's continuing effort to turn the DS into the Swiss army knife of portable devices, soon, we anticipate the DS will be able to do just about anything ... and ...
Big Bang Mini pops up in Rio
There's only one thing more explosive than new Big Bang Mini screens, and that's a new Big Bang Mini trailer. Wait, no, really, that's completely inaccurate. Lots of things are more explosive than video and images, including, uh, actual fireworks, but maybe we can get away with the hyperbole when ...
Up close and personal with Arc Rise Fantasia
Ever since we've learned that Arc Rise Fantasia was going to break out of Japan, we've wanted to see more of the RPG, but there was a long gap and not a lot to see. Now, however, we can check out ... well, honestly, it's a bunch of poses. Sometimes the same pose against a different background. ...
Show and Tell: Off the beaten costume path
Okay, listen -- not everyone appreciates cosplay, and that's cool. Hopefully, even if you don't, you can at least give the creators their due. We sure like to, because some really dedicated fans can put together wonderful costumes ... costumes so wonderful we have no choice but to appreciate their ...
Link and Midna in furry cosplay
If someone suggested the notion of Link and Midna cosplay to you -- wolf Link, that is -- you'd probably think Midna would be the more lifelike one of the pair, yes? Not this time, buddy. No, while this little Midna is great, down to the details and the little legs, it's the wolf who really shines ...
DS releases for the week of January 12th
Moon, elves, chaos and madness -- it's just another week of new DS games, only this time, with actual games! January's been slow so far, but this week, Moon really is coming out, along with a few other titles. Looks like things are finally getting back to normal after the holidays. Jumble ...
Wii Warm Up: Year to date
We're one-third of the way into the first month of a new year! Hooray! Okay, that's not much time, really. But was it time enough for you to buy a game? If so, did you use a gift card or other credit, or drop your own cold, hard cash? This time right after the holidays can be a major boom or bust, ...
DS Daily: Too many games?
Yesterday, as we were discussing the localization of Phantasy Star Zero, there was a lot of talk about different periods of the year being packed with too many worthwhile releases, and that begs another question entirely: are there just too many worthwhile games, period? Listen, we're not talking ...
Underwater monster hunting
No, this is not a hyperviolent sequel to Endless Ocean (though that might be kind of awesome, until PETA got wind of it and freaked out), but rather a little underwater adventuring -- or hunting, if you will -- in Monster Hunter 3 (tri-). In these latest screens, our dear Hunter is faced with an ...
