How many of you grabbed yourself a copy of Super Smash Bros. Brawl over the weekend? I wouldn’t be surprised if quite a few of you did, but now I wonder how many of you can’t get the game to play. Apparently the same issues that were cropping up with Japanese versions of the game [...]
I’ve always found it fascinating that companies and stores will hold tournaments for games on launch day. While games that are sequels will have similar mechanics to previous titles, there is still something of a learning curve which helps to even the playing field a little. With that said, those of you that would call [...]
In all my years of gaming, I’ve never actually imported any games from Japan (or anywhere else for that matter). The main reason for this is that I’m not fluent in any language other than English, which would mean all dialog would be completely lost on me. If you’re one that loves you some imported [...]
We know that Mario Kart Wii is coming soon, and you’ll of course get an official Nintendo Wii Wheel when you buy the game. However, will people have the same dilemma as when Rock Band came out? No, apparently Nintendo will be releasing stand-alone Wii Wheels on the launch day.
I still remember the original Mario Kart coming out for the Super Nintendo. My brother and I spent many days racing around the various tracks, however, what dominated the majority of our time was Battle Mode. Naturally we’re looking forward to rekindling the competitions in the latest iteration of the franchise. The biggest difference between [...]
You’ll find that I’m stubborn about the strangest things, one of which is voice chat. I try to avoid lengthy phone conversations when I can, and only use Vent when running instances (in WoW) with guild members. I’ve found that voice chat with random people is easily one of the most obnoxious things in the [...]

Apparently the various hacks that have been figured out are still working, so, if you’ve hacked your console you should [...]
Over here in the US we’ve been eagerly awaiting the launch of Super Smash Bros. Brawl for a while. It’s been pushed back, and will finally be making its way to our store shelves on March 9th. By that time the game will have been out for over a month in Japan. While the wait [...]
Remember last week when I mentioned that Activision was having horrible turnaround time with the Guitar Hero III: Legends of rock discs for the Wii? Well apparently the turnaround time was so bad that they are adding a refund to the list of solutions for the sound issues found with the original discs.
How many of you are considering getting a Wii Fit when it comes out this May? Honestly, I don’t see myself getting much use out of a little white thing you stand on. However, if the sales in Japan are anything to go by, there are plenty of others out there that will be picking [...]
