I have attended every PAX East since the original in 2010, and this year’s PAX East was by far the worst one. The hype that surrounds it had gotten bigger year over year, and I fail to understand why after consistent years of decreasing importance to publishers, and expo hall growing in shops versus legit […]
We’ve seen Nintendo Directs that have focused on one game, like Platinum Games’ The Wonderful 101 last year, but Nintendo has yet to do one on a game as big as Super Smash Bros. for Wii U/3DS. Along with Mario Kart 8, the Wii U version will be one to keep close eye on since […]
When Watch Dogs was originally shown at Ubisoft’s E3 press conference in 2012, it was the definition of a showstopper.

With the recent announcement of Nintendo bringing DS games to the Wii U Virtual Console (and strangely not the 3DS’), we decided on contributing a wishlist of ten games or game series we would like to see on the Wii U. Sure everyone’s list would be different, but mine is fairly diverse and really focuses […]
Tonight during the Nintendo Q3 2013 Financial Results Briefing, Satoru Iwata detailed Nintendo’s plans to change up the Wii U as a console, further the Nintendo Network as a new platform for many different devices and what could be the future of not just Nintendo, but all of gaming.
