NBA Jam – Better Than Original?
Have a Wii Party
While looking for more group-based games for the Wii, I stumbled upon Wii Party. As long as you don’t set your expectations too high – this is a great group-based game for the Wii. Like the Mario Party games before it, it is meant to be played with a large group of people rather than by yourself, and will take you through several types of games to play – with a few mini games thrown in for good measure.
Skyward Sword, New Legend of Zelda Trailer
Who doesn’t love the Legend of Zelda?
Still looking over some of my favorite news from E3 2010 here, and this trailer had me all kinds of excited. I have practically played just about every Zelda game – so I will definitely be picking this one up as soon as it is released. I really like the fact they have worked in the Wii Motion Plus into the game too. Those extra dongles I bought are starting to look like a waste, other than having some fun in Wii Sports Resort.
GoldenEye 64 Wii Remake?
Thus far, watching the e3 coverage has been pretty dull. Well, that was until I saw IGN posted a trailer maybe a little too early about the often rumored remake of the classic Nintendo 64 shooter, GoldenEye.
Now, I’m not exactly a huge James Bond fan, however I did play this game a whole heck of a lot growing up. Really can’t wait to hear more about it.
Muscle March
Let me apologize for my hiatus with one really bizarre game review. I really love the games out there that seems so odd, you wonder what the heck these people were on when they came up with the idea for it. Hallucinogens aside for a moment, Muscle March is a great cheap WiiWare game you should at least check out.
Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth
Over the weekend, I downloaded a new WiiWare game – so thought I would give my thoughts on it here. Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth is by far a great classic Castlevania game.
The graphics look fantastic. They really go for that old Super Castlevania IV look and feeling. Sure, we have seen it before in a Castlevania game but sometimes you don’t need to reinvent the wheel.
Wiimote Cleaning 101
Having some free time on my hands over the holiday weekend, I decided to clean the finger smudges, dirt and grime from my Wii remotes. To make sure I didn’t screw anything up, I figured it would be a good idea to check Nintendo’s web site for some pointers. The advice was good, but one thing really stuck out.
The Legend of Wallpaper (Sorry Zelda!)
Found some fresh Hyrulian wallpaper to ogle over. Ever since this epic piece of art was leaked from E3 of the new Zelda game for Wii, I always thought to myself it would make a great wallpaper. Thankfully, purenintendo.com has already done the hard work for us, putting out this 1680×1050 image for all the Legend of Zelda fans to decorate their desktop with. (you can grab the direct link to the image here)
5 Crazy Super Nintendo Mods
Having been an fan of the Super Nintendo for many many years, I thought I would check out some of the craziest mods people have done on the system I have loved for so many years. I don’t know if I’d have the heart to do this to my own SNES, however I do have to give them a standing ovation of innovation.
The “I Want Brains” Zombie Super Nintendo Mod
The Super Nintendo Goes Wii Mod
The Super Nintoaster Mod
The Portable Super Nintendo Mod
The My SNES is Now My PC Mod
Which one is your favorite? Being a big horror movie fan, the zombie SNES I think would be the winner for me. Then again, the toaster SNES might be the most enjoyable one to use, because of its extreme oddness.
Punch-Out’s Disco Kid Desktop Icon
He might not be everybody’s favorite new Punch-Out character. Love the Disco Kid or hate him, you do have to agree with me it is always fun to give him a glove to the mouth via Punch-Out for the Wii. To match up with my previous Punch-Out desktop icons, I thought I’d toss him into the mix and turn him into an icon too. Just promise me you will not try to punch your monitor.
Download the Disco Kid Desktop Icon (.zip)
The icons are compatible with the following sizes: 256 x 256, 128 x 128, 64 x 64, 48 x 48, 32 x 32, 24 x 24, 16 x 16. It is also in both .ico and .png formats. You have Disco Kid ready for download! Feel free to use, distribute and what not. Just remember, if you do share it around, please be sure to give me at least a little ‘bit of credit.
So are you ready for this? Be sure to also check out my other free Punch Out icons too!
