This is quite possibly one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a while that walks the fine line of being borderline disturbing. The figures depicted in this animation definitely hit the uncanny valley, but what’s even funnier is the scene in which Sony and Microsoft figures use their respective consoles to beat down Satoru [...]
News concerning the Wii U has been slim after the E3 announcement, but new rumors circulating suspect that the new console won’t be hitting the shelves until 2012. Many consumers were hoping for a late spring release, but it seems that Nintendo may wait until after E3 2012 to unveil their new console in order [...]
Yes, I am still alive even though there has not been a post in nine days. You can stop worrying, because I know you were. The main reason there have been no posts is everyone preaching the same gloom and doom for the Wii U and the news feed has gone silent on any Wii [...]
So Nintendo has filed for several Trademark applications for the Wii U. The ironic and kind of humorous part being that they don’t own WiiU.com. Apparently WiiU.com was registered by someone in 2004. The site just post ads and news articles for gaming consoles. It’s a pretty terrible site that might get some money for [...]
Thanks to some fellow nerds at NeoGaf who found this patent for the Wii U controller, we now a little more about the mysterious yet alluring Wii U controller. Since the E3 unveiling of the Wii U we have known the basic external features of the controller such as the 6.2″ touch-screen, two joysticks and [...]
Snapdragon, a home console killer? HA HA HA HA . . .not a chance. So I don’t know who wrote these articles (Dumb Article and Dumber Article) but they clearly are not gamers.

Nintendo investors are apparently all bent out of shape over Nintendo’s business strategy, according to Bloomberg.com. The investors, and many others, want Satoru Iwata, Nintendo’s President, to release the licensing rights for their iconic Nintendo IP’s Mario and Zelda to development teams for Apple Inc. and other smartphone development companies. They believe that smartphone and [...]
Nintendo continues to get support from EA who is arguably one of the biggest and best 3rd party developers out there. This time it comes from EA’s COO Peter Moore, former Vice-President of Microsoft’s Interactive Entertainment Business division, overseeing the XBox and XBox 360 game consoles, and president of SEGA of America. So he probably knows [...]
Codemasters CEO, Rod Cousens, told MCV that F1 and Dirt will be released on the Wii U. This is just another example of a strong developer returning to Nintendo. Codemasters released F1 2009 on the Wii but in 2010 left the platform for HD platforms only. Now that the Wii has leveled the playing field [...]
Just this morning Sony’s Executive Deputy President (whatever that means) Kazuo Hirai, announced that the PS Vita will not launch until 2012 in the U.S. and Europe. My guess is that one they don’t have a lot of game titles ready to release anytime soon. Second, although they announced that the Vita can be used as [...]
