Will Nintendo’s Arrogance Lead to Their Undoing?
Jan 1, 2005
For the better part of a decade, I’ve been gaming. I own a GameCube, an Xbox, a PS2, and a GBA, and every Nintendo console dating back to the NES, with the exception of the Virtual Boy. As such, I profess that I’m a huge geek. So much so that I highly respect Gunpei Yokoi, [...]

Dec 28, 2004
2004 was a great year for Nintendo. From start to finish, we had a non-stop surge of great moments. We had the DS, we had news of the new Legend of Zelda, and we even had a couple new Mario games. But what were the absolute best things about this year? No need to worry, [...]

Roundtable #2: Nintendo’s Voice
Dec 24, 2004
Saul: You know, there was a time (NES, SNES days) when Nintendo games where considered cutting edge in all their aspects. Heck, it wasn’t really until the N64/Playstation era when other companies (such as Konami and Electronic Arts) really started blowing past Nintendo in terms of presentation and story. Now, if you’ve owned nothing but [...]

The Revolution is Going to Signify a Turning Point for Nintendo…
Dec 12, 2004

The Direction of Video Games, and What the Future Holds for the Industry
Nov 20, 2004
Frankly, I think this generation has been something of a disappointment. We’ve seen improvements in graphics and technology, but when it comes to games, the landscape hasn’t changed much. Things like online play, camera peripherals, and even connectivity (as ultimately embodied in the Nintendo DS) may have helped evolve the industry, but in the end, [...]

The Legend Of Zelda: Revolution or GameCube?
Nov 15, 2004
At this year’s E3, one of the most talked about game was The Legend of Zelda. Sure, the main attractions were probably Halo 2 and the DS, but everyone was extremely happy to see the return of realistic Link for the next installment of The Legend of Zelda. I still remember the first time I [...]
