Nintendo Wii U and 3DS news at Wii's World

Color Zen Kids review

Destroy the animal kingdom with your trusty stylus!

Once again I have encountered a puzzle game that has emerged from the depths of the eShop. I can't complain, I have across some great gaming gems during my time writing for Wii's World and I have given honest scores. Indie developers are becoming a wonderful force now that more and more of them are getting... read more

Opinion: The Greatest Launch Title?

Nintendo 64's Super Mario 64

The Fifth Generation of gaming was already in full swing by 1996. Sega had released their ill fated and largely forgotten Saturn, while Sony had begun their juggernaut PlayStation line. The Nintendo 64 was the final home console to launch in the Fifth Gen, but it launched like an Apollo rocket. Super... read more

An Interview with Treefall Studios' Eli Brewer

We meet the man behind "The Letter"

How old is Treefall Studios, and how big? EB: The entire thing is about two years old. Now we have three people, but when I did "The Letter" I did it by myself. We haven't made any complete games until recently, really. We're pretty much brand new. What was the first game Treefall Studios developed and... read more

An Interview with the developers of The Letter later today

What do you guys want me to ask them?

After asking "why" so many times throughout my review of The Letter, it should come as no surprise that I decided to get answers straight from the creators themselves, Treefall Studios, who have graciously agreed to an interview later today. I have about ten questions or so that I'm going to ask them... read more

Sonic the Hedgehog (SMS) review

One of the Sega Master System's better games

The difference between those early days and Sonic's latter days are incredible. Sonic 06 came out the same year as Sonic and the Secret Rings, one of them was OK, one of them was awful, perhaps one of the worst games ever made. Compare that with Sonic the Hedgehog (the Genesis and Master System versions),... read more

RCMADIAX boss talks about Blok Drop U

After having a go of the indie title Blok Drop U I decided to get in touch with the creator for my first video game related interview. Michael Aschenbrenner is a busy man and also a hard working one at that with his company RCMADIAX, so it's great that he has answered some questions for us. If you have... read more

Super Toy Cars review

Playing with your toys has never been so super

When you hear about a video game titled Super Toy Cars, do you really expect anything more than worthless shovelware? The kind of game that moms buy their kids just because it seemed "cute", without having any prior knowledge about the game? It's a safe bet to say that most of us would, and it's what I... read more

I am an Air Traffic Controller Airport Hero Hawaii review

The Men Who Stare at Planes

Alright, kiddies, gather around, Griffin's going to tell you whippersnappers a story. It was years ago, when your old pal G-Money had first joined the Boy Scouts of America. My Troop was at Hondo Air Base learning about planes and trying to lay claim to the MacGuffin that was the Aviation merit badge.... read more

Living in 8-bit

A journey through the NES, SMS and GB

I have no idea why I did it, but I thought it would be fun to take one whole year dedicated to a generation. So this year it's the 8-bit generation, the front-runners being the Nintendo Entertainment System, Sega Master System and Game Boy. Next year will be the 16-bit, introducing the Super Nintendo and... read more

Pokemon Rumble Blast review

Now we need David Attenborough to narrate over this.

We all get rather curious about spin-off titles of some of the biggest games on the planet. These spin-offs mainly consist of different gameplay compared to its main base of gaming operations. Some people see them as ideas to make a quick buck, others see it as a new gateway to something wonderful. With... read more

Aonuma Talks New Zelda

Wants the next Zelda to be "vast"

Whilst Hyrule Warriors is getting a decent amount of coverage, the new main-series Zelda game is talked about less infrequently. Through Nintendo's Japanese site (and unfortunately in Japanese itself), Eiji Aonuma's words have been translated roughly to explain a little about the new Zelda project - when... read more

Evofish review

Will leave you wanting

I'll admit, when I grabbed Evofish from the eShop, I was excited. I remember playing a game in my elementary school's computer lab that involved creating a fish and trying to survive in the Great Barrier Reef with it, earning points to "evolve" your fish, making it faster, bigger, or even giving it poisonous... read more
