As you may already know, we’re pretty big fans of the Pokémon series here. And Pokémon Black and White is shaping up to be another fine entry in what’s already a great series of games.
When the new starters were revealed, many of us began to wonder what they were going to look like. Well, we might have that answer for you. The following images were posted on serebii.net, and are possibly the evolved forms of Tsutarja, Pokabu and Mijumaru.
Hello again, all my friends here at TGV.
I’m happy to announce that on YouTube I have reached 2000 subscribers! I wanted to say a little something special to all of you and let you know of some fun new things going on for the EMU Review! I also have a little extra treat at the end of the episode. Something else that I do, related to Audio and music. I hope you guys enjoy it.
Nintendo announced its Gamescom line-up today, which includes The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword. Will the line for it be just as long as during E3? Probably.
Dear Tetsuya Nomura,
The most of us here at The Gaming Vault (and many others across the immense interwebs) really enjoy spiky-haired, angst-ridden protagonists with very large headphones and very Japanese clothing. We also enjoy awesome DS games that are alone worth getting the handheld system for.
Wait, what’s that, Mr. Nomura? You want to give us more?
When I have friends over to my place for game nights, and I bust out my wireless controllers for NES, SNES, and N64, the first thing everyone says is “they made wireless controllers for that system?!” Most people have no idea that wireless controllers exist for these old consoles. Its my civil gaming duty to show you all these sweet accessories!
I am reviewing wireless controllers spanning across 3 generations of consoles! Please enjoy the show guys!
Now here’s a news story in which it’s hard to decide if it’s surprising, or the inevitable. Nintendo has shown a very significant drop in profit and sales for it’s Q1 period, ending June 30. This has seen the company make a loss for the period, a situation which has occurred in years.
Nintendo has recently filed several trademarks which appear to be related to the Nintendo 3DS. This comes courtesy of a report on Siliconera.
The trademarks filed are CrossPass, CrossPass Mode, CrossPass Network, and CrossPass Connection, which sound like they’re related to the 3DS networking mode. This feature will allow players to exchange data when near other players.
Its is now time for me to bust out a game that falls under “Jasons handfull of all time favorite games”! Yes, that is right, I am reviewing one of the best fighting games that brought so many firsts to our community. This is none other than the cult classic Killer Instinct!
After watching this review check out my “Killer Instinct Remix”! it’s the second video down and if you want to dowload it ABSOLUTLEY FREE please follow the link provided!I wanted to do something special for this review, and give back to the amazing community. I hope you all enjoy the review and the remix!
As a huge Metroid Prime fan, this Metroid title might very well not be for me. Other M takes the old-school Metroid games and tacks onto it the first-person Metroid Prime mode. Side-scrolling is back, in the awkward two-and-a-half dimensions well-known by N64 players. Basically, the game ends up being a clunky amalgam of a platformer and a first-person shooter, with what seems to be the story of an RPG.
According to a rumour suggestion on VG247 today, Nintendo has being informing UK publishers that Nintendo’s 3DS console will be hitting UK shelves in March.
Nintendo UK official response was, “That’s rumour and speculation as we’ve not announced any date for 3DS,”
Whatever the case, we definitely won’t be seeing the 3D-enabled handheld until 2011.
Truly no pun intended in that title there. Nintendo of Europe has released a really, really big list of upcoming DS and Wii games, running to the end of the third quarter.
The full list can be found after the cut, though the sad news is that there are only about 3 games to be excited about in the entire lot.
Eoji Aonuma has told ONM today that they are currently looking for a solid “early 2011″ release date for Zelda: Skyward Sword.
“The basis we have now is very, very solid,” said Aonuma, the game’s producer. “Early 2011 – that is what we’re aiming for.”
Nintendo has always had a “It’ll be done when its done” approach to their games, and this always leads to high quality, industry defining games being released at the end of the day. Take as long as you need, Aonuma!
According to Siliconera., Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has gone on record saying that 3DS will be a “dramatic improvement” for digital distribution by the company, which they will be “expanding” with the launch of the new handheld.
“We are thinking the release of new hardware should be good timing for a dramatic improvement of this situation,” Iwata said at an investor session recently.
Kid Icarus: Uprising, announced by Nintendo at this year’s E3 is shaping up to be part bullet hell shooter and part hack’n'slasher, and I’m completely fine with that. But according to the game’s director this was an intentional way for Uprising to address a lack of creativity in the gaming industry.
To quote our editor and admin Michael O’Connor: We’re living in a gaming renaissance. No longer are gamers thought of as hopeless shut-ins without jobs and social-lives, now that video games have been brought into the open market due to the advent of casual games that can be picked up and played by anyone.
Yet at the same time, in this time of gaming moving forward and becoming mainstream, I’m seeing an increased focus on moving backwards.
