Braving the weather to see New Super Mario Bros. Wii at the Nintendo World...
New Super Mario Bros. Wii hits stores today, and it will probably be on of the biggest games of the year. (Little Tommy and Little Susie shouldn’t be playing Modern Warfare 2!) To celebrate the launch of this latest Mario game, Nintendo invited its fans to the Nintendo World Store in New York...

Daily Crunch: Showdown Edition
150 Spy pen is probably good enough for “Mission: Impossible” And our costume contest winner is… Mouse and keyboard vs. Console controller: Let’s bury the hatchet First review of New Super Mario Bros. Wii gives the game a 9.2 (and guess from who that number’s from!)

First review of New Super Mario Bros. Wii gives the game a 9.2 (and guess from who that number’s from!)
Whether or not this is the best Mario game to date is purely a matter of personal tastes; it’s certainly the most humble on outward appearances. The red game case – a bold and loud statement of fun – is the first indicator that there’s something special under the hood in this one. Still sorting t...

New Zelda for Wii probably not coming until 2011
It's not that we want to rush Nintendo in the creation of their next opus, but it might have been nice to have it in 2010. Perhaps the biggest of the "big three" Nintendo franchise games in the works (along with Super Mario Galaxy 2 and Metroid: Other M) is "tracking" for 2010 but Nintendo isn't...

Come on, everyone, of course Nintendo is working on the Wii HD
Nintendo made the right decision to make the original Wii not powerful enough to run HD graphics and therefore less expensive. It became an instant success because of not only the novel motion controller and easy-to-like bundled game, but also the relatively low starting price of $250 wh...
How big is the Nintendo DSi XL? So big it won’t fit on its own box!

Review: The Conduit (Wii)
Again, I hate to make direct comparisons to the other big boy consoles, but High Voltage really hit it out of the park for multiplayer mode. Sure, it pales in comparison to what we’re used to on the Xbox 360, but The Conduit’s multiplayer on the Wii kicks some serious ass.

Review: Klonoa for the Wii
You must be precise with your jumps and be on your toes at all times or you’ll fall to your death and want to break your Wiimote. Speaking of which, I play this game with the Nyko Wing rather than the Wii Remote or Wand from Nyko. It’s much easier with a controller than a stick of butter (aka Wiimote...
Review: Let’s Tap for the Wii
But, seriously, Let’s Tap is surprisingly well put together and utilizes the mechanics of the Wii system like no other and that includes Nintendo. Kudos to Prope and big ups to Sega for only wanting to charge $30. I give it two thumbs up and suggest you pick it up as well. Not everyone wants to fla...

Review: Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10 (Wii) with MotionPlus
There are also real-time weather conditions pulled down from the Wii Forecast Channel. So for instance, yesterday (June 18th, 2009) it was raining like hell on the US Open, which was being played on the Bethpage Black Course in the New York area (play actually got suspended in real life).

Review: InCharge for Wii induction charger
Short Version: Wii owners sick of replacing controller batteries every couple weeks will find Tekno Creations’ $35 InCharge contact-less charging system to be a good investment. Long Version: The InCharge system is a handsome charging dock for your Nintendo Wii remotes. It uses “conta...

Review: Shaun White Snowboarding Road Trip (Wii)
Long Version: The Wii, she’s been a fickle mistress. I fell head over heels for her when she first hit the scene but the glaring omission of decent third-party titles has caused a rift in our relationship wider than the special pants she had to purchase after she “let herself go” once I’d been...

How To: An unconventional use for the Wii Nunchuck controller
Wow, this is pretty sweet. Oomlout, creaters of the OAWR and SERB robot projects, are using a Wii Nunchuck to control their SERB robot. Too bad it’s not wireless. If you’re curious about Oomlout’s work, you can check out their website or their photostream on Flickr. From their website, you ca...

Podcast: Nintendo just found a boatload of money and it’s called Dragon Quest X
Flickr’d Sony and Microsoft (especially Microsoft) might as well pack their bags and leave the Japanese gaming market altogether. Why? For one, Square Enix just announced that Dragon Quest X will be released for the Wii, probably sometime in 2010 at the earliest. That means Nintendo will...

How To: DIY, solar-powered mobile Wii
The guys over at Tom’s Hardware Guide have built a mobile Wii station, so they could get out a play video games in the sunshine. They claim they actually did it because they hadn’t build anything in a while and had been talking about applications for solar power. The unit is basically a wooden...
