The Legend of Zelda Symphony Concert Reveals Two Songs
Posted On 08 Aug 2011 By admin
I don't know if anybody has noticed yet, but I adore Zelda music. I have multiple playlists devoted to the game, whether they are soundtracks or remixes. I'm very excited for the symphony, but sadly, I will have to wait and see if it will visit a location close to me. The tickets went on sale for the Los Angeles last week, and Club Nintendo members are able to get a discount. The Tokyo concert shows on October 10th, while the London concert is set for October 25th. Nintendo composer Hahito Yokota has revealed to us two songs that will be included in the concert. The first song shared is from the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. Can you guess which song it could be? To find the answers, hit the jump!...

Katsuya Talks Wii U
Posted On 08 Aug 2011 By admin
So we all know why Nintendo decided on the name of the Wii U. The Wii sold off the shelves like hot cakes, and many people around the world know of the game changing system that Nintendo released way back in 2006. More of the Edge Interview with Katsuya Eguchi gives us even more light to the name of the Wii U, along with other interesting bits of information. There's even talk of possible new IPs for Nintendo's next big system. Oh, and you know that that little zapper attachment for the Wii U controller? Nintendo strongly believes that this set up will be a big game changer for the FPS Genre, and hey, I agree. Hell, I could even see it working for a Fallout title, (remember, Bethesda has interest in the Wii U) having the Wii U controller's screen go into v.a.t.s mode with a quick tilt or button press, and then using the zapper to point out which body parts of your target you'd like shoot into a bloody mess. Jump inside for the rest of the interview (part of it was in my last post). ...

Nintendo’s Next Challenge? Marketing the Wii U
Posted On 08 Aug 2011 By admin
The 3DS hasn't been doing well lately, which is obvious with the upcoming price drop. Will Nintendo face the same problem with the Wii U? I hope not, however, the folks over at Nintendo have acknowledged that the Wii U may be a hard sell (hey, at least they're honest). Katsuya Eguchi, (who was one of the designers involved with Wii Sports) recently sat down with Edge to discuss the Wii U and how exactly Nintendo will market the system in order to entice consumers to purchase the console. Nintendo's other challenge is showing everyone how the Wii U differs from their competitors have to offer. Those of us who actually follow gaming news know how the Wii U is different, however, not every gamer out there has an idea what the Wii U is capable of, especially if they're not Nintendo fans to begin with. Hopefully the big N will be able to convince customers that the Wii U is a must have item, much like they did with the Wii. Jump inside to see what Katsuya had to say regarding the Wii U. ...

This video, part of a collaboration called NiN10Doh to the 64th power, is a comical look at Majora’s Mask. The characters aren’t accurately represented, but the references will surely get a laugh. The artist Laura Kerger is rather talented and goes by artistgamergal on YouTube. What was your opinion of the video? I thought it [...]
