At first, you may be inclined to think that Mario Kart Wii is nothing more than Double Dash with tilt control. I suppose that’s a fair assumption. After all, the game looks remarkably like Double Dash, just with widescreen support and an over saturation of bloom lighting. It’s a little more than that, though. Mario [...]

REDWOOD CITY, CA – May 27, 2008 – Hudson Entertainment, the North American publishing arm of Hudson Soft, today announced that registration for both a tournament and a sweepstakes for the recently launched galactic shooter, Star Soldier R for WiiWare on Wii begins May 27, 2008 and will go through June 24, 2008, concurrent with [...]

If there’s going to be DDR on Wii, you should expect some kind of waggle, right? Only fair. Because there is. DDR Hottest Party is still the usual four-step dance pad, but this Wii iteration adds some remote and nunchuk lovin’ to the mix. Randomly interspersed between the scrolling arrows are hand markers. When these [...]

Deca Sports, a unique ten-sport game, exclusive to Wii, is now available at retail for $29.99. Combining ten sporting events into one game, players can compete in beach volleyball, snowboard cross, badminton, basketball, curling, figure skating, archery, supercross, soccer and kart racing. NintendoSpin had a chance to play the demo version of Deca Sports, which [...]

In Bomberman Land for the Nintendo Wii, you take a trip with Bomberman and his friends as they head to Bomberman Land for some mini-game fun. That fun is quickly replaced by a hectic free for all tournament as you attempt to overthrow a villainous character who looks just like you. You use the Wii [...]

With DECA Sports, you bring a mix of sports that will be familiar to Wii users, and some that haven’t appeared on the console yet. What are you doing to differentiate between existing products and DECA sports? More specifically, can you elaborate on some of the motions and techniques players will be using to play [...]

I can’t think of a game I have played and beaten as many times as Super Mario World. This is the quintessential 2D platformer, perhaps only bested by Super Mario Bros. 3. Admittedly, Super Mario World doesn’t feel as old-school or as difficult as Mario 3, but I confess to being very biased, here. Super [...]

Sega’s other light gun port, Ghost Squad, was a lot of fun, but it admittedly felt a bit overpriced as a 15-minute game going for $30. Sega must be trying to redeem themselves, because House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return contains House of the Dead 2 and… uh… the title kind of spoils [...]

Super Smash Bros. Brawl does not make the kind of leap that Melee did coming from the N64 game. I guess when you find a working formula, you should stick to it. I wouldn’t consider Melee the end-all of brawlers, though. It was chaotic to the point where you could hardly tell what was going [...]

Guitar Hero is the closest you’ll get to being a rockin’ guitar player while simultaneously remaining a huge nerd. It’s gratifying and makes you feel like you’re really playing the song, but in the end, you’re still holding a plastic video game peripheral. Similar to DDR, notes scroll down the screen and have to be [...]
