This is just cool. It's a giant Kid Icarus float! The only way you can top this is with a giant Zelda float. The float is made of washi (hardened Japanese paper) over a bamboo framework, so they're like giant moving paper lanterns. But you're probably wondering why there is a giant version of Pit and the Goddess Palutena to begin with. The float is part of the Tachi Neputa festival in Goshogawara, Aomori Prefecture Japan that lasts from August 4-6th. The town is famous for this festival and features many similar-style floats. The Kid Icarus float, which is 20 meters high, is there to promote the upcoming release of Kid Icarus: Uprising on the 3DS. Jump inside for photos of the float....

You've probably seen many Zelda themed tattoos in the past, most of them probably being the Triforce or a variation thereof. What most people who have tattoos will tell you is that having a simple one-colored shape drawn on yourself is rather painless compared to some more elaborate art pieces. Well, one man was not going to sit idle while the rest of the world gets to enjoy all masochistic privileges. Jump inside to find out just what he did against such a great injustice....

Overworld. This is a common video game term used when discussing adventure titles and RPGs, and as such it is frequently used in Zelda discussions. Wiktionary defines “overworld” as: Noun: In certain video games, the space connecting disparate towns/dungeons/levels. It can encompass the entire world, but doesn’t necessarily have to. So by definition, any area [...]

Do you have a bunch of Miis standing around your Mii Plaza, bored and wondering what to do? I only have about twelve Miis in my own plaza, but there are people with hundreds just waiting there. At the financial results briefing, one investor stated he had 300 Miis with little to do. Satoru Iwata had a response to his complaint that gives us new software to look forward to. As we hear that a fairly good number of people have already done everything we offered with StreetPass Mii Plaza, we are preparing for something new that you can enjoy there in the near future. We are planning to make it available by the end of this calendar year. For the rest of his statement, hit the jump!...

As you all know I have been working on a Zelda Twilight Princess Video Walkthrough for quite some time now. I am nearly completion of this game and am about to enter the final dungeon. So I figured what better time than now, while the game is still f...

Nintendo may have it's fair share of problems right now, but you can't deny it's had an incredible run heading into this year. This sort of run is what allows Nintendo to take the risks it has and will be taking likely again with the Wii U. That being said it's also a great reminder that the Wii was truly awesome this generation. Don't believe me? It's the only game console in history that has had five 20+ million seller game titles. The console itself sold roughly 86 million units (likely to hit around 90 by next year, thanks to Kirby and Zelda this holiday) world wide and has enjoyed sales that go beyond normal reasoning. As an example, the best selling game on the Playstation 3 to this point is Gran Turismo 5 with 6.37 million units sold. To put that in perspective, the Wii has had 13 games out pace that. The Xbox 360's best selling game is Call of Duty Black Ops with 12 million in sales. The Wii has 7 games that have sold more than that. Needless to say, it's no wonder Wii games are dominating the top 10 charts. Nintendo simply has the biggest...

I have a feeling the entire time I will be playing Kid Icarus I will be amazed by the world and the colorful enemies and attacks. When we were first shown the upcoming game, I was watching E3 on my friends giant high definition television. I didn't play the original Kid Icarus game until I played Pit in Brawl, and he is now one of my favorite characters. These images are bright, and show plenty of action and different attacks that should make playing this game exciting. There are also a variety of weapons that Pit can use, which makes me wonder what else they might have in store for us! To see the latest screen shots, hit the jump!...
