Smash Bros. Brawl to Include Side-Scrolling Action Game
Its been just announced that Super Smash Bros. Brawl for Wii will include a side-scrolling action game mode. This means squat to me and I am suspicious that this was added because online multi-player was not added. I am still holding out some hope that multiplayer online will also be included. I dont see why they would have a team work out on an adventure mode and neglect online multiplayer which ...[Read More]
Alien Syndrome Wii Review
Last week I bitched about the fact that no game sites had a review of Alien Syndrome posted when it was released so I took it upon myself to play the game.

The bottom line is that the graphics ...[Read More]

Where Are The Alien Syndrome Wii Reviews?
As someone who had and played the shit out of the original Alien Syndrome for the Sega Master System back in the day I am disturbed that there are NO REVIEWS of the new Wii Alien Syndrome game anywhere on the interwebs. I loved the co-op play and good ol’ blast-an-alien and pick up cool weapons like flame throwers and shit style gameplay of the original. The new Wii version game is now ̶...[Read More]

Portable Wii Screen
Released in Japan this 14,800 yen (roughly $140) portable Wii screen has a built in sensor bar. I cant imagine using it on anything with waggle controls or any thing other than maybe Smash Bros. Brawl, Virtual Console games, or Mario Kart Wii when it’s released next year. More pics.
