Super mario 3d land impressions

Posted by raven under nintendo



This feels different and familiar all at the same time. This one is very different I said it is like taking super Mario 64 and taking super Mario 3 and took the good elements out of it you get this new Mario game.  It is a third Mario. You will still platform like the one you remember. And the power ups you all know and love but they did bring back one power up the tanooki suit OK I am more of an cape guy from super Mario world were is the love for that. However, it is nice they put it in the game.

The levels are kind of Mario galaxy they got blocks that teleport you to an different part of the level they got green blocks that fold out and you climb or step on they are timed they will go away after an while. When you finish a level you touch the flagpole remember it is a third game that feels 2d this feels wired that they brought the flag. Nintendo is saying flag pole is the end of the game I say to end the level is bring back the card and if you get an mushroom or an flower and star and get three of them you get ups hey the tanooki suit is it go all the way.



Overall,

it is the most different Mario game you will ever play but it does feel the same. The slid pad feels great and Mario never felt better the controls are awesome and a joy to take control. This will be a fun game for people who love Mario and for the people that do not play that many Mario games. However, for us old school people out there me it is going to be a little but more of a sell but for the new school people sold.

Zelda Skyward Sword impressions

Posted by raven under nintendo



Being this is my first time at comic con I am surprised the amount of gaming stuff there. One of thought games is a Zelda skyward sword.

I played an mini game about chasing birds down to get an prize to Zelda why she is not in danger by this time is beyond me. It is your basic Wii motion plus game takes some time to get use I am so used to the stick and moving by motion is still like a science I mean I am relearning 20 years of gaming here. So pressing a makes you faster and the b button slows the bird down. In addition, when you catch up to the bird with the prize gets him two times you win.

There is a dungeon level in the playable demo. So this is were the Wii motion plus come in play more way you swing matters you are not swinging wildly and hitting someone. So you have to swing were there is an open weak-spot this is cool it makes things more personal. In addition, link got some pep in his step press a link sprints it took so many games no more over clean running for link this is the best thing they have done for this game. You can say weapons but this makes link in line with the other games.

All in all

the game in beautiful I expect nothing less from Nintendo. This is a more colorful Zelda game and some people would like that I like the art style it is a blend of wind walker and ocarina of time and find middle. In addition, it will be treat for your TV.

With More Than 30 Games Total Launching by Early June, There's Something for Everyone

REDMOND, Wash., Feb. 22, 2011 – On day one, new Nintendo 3DS™ owners will have plenty of video games to keep them busy. Nintendo and its third-party publishing partners have made sure that people who buy a system on March 27 will be able to choose from a variety of experiences that leverage the system's new features. A steady and diverse stream of games of all kinds will keep the fun going, with more than 30 Nintendo 3DS games total launching before the E3 Expo in early June.

"Seeing 3D visuals without the need for special glasses is just one aspect of Nintendo 3DS," said Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime. "The real test of any system is whether the games and applications draw you in and keep you engaged. Through the launch window and beyond, Nintendo 3DS delivers."

On March 27, new Nintendo 3DS owners will be able to choose from the following Nintendo-published games, each available at a suggested retail price of $39.99:

  • Pilotwings Resort™, an aerial adventure featuring airplanes, hang gliders and rocket belts. Players soar above tropical Wuhu Island in 3D as they complete missions or snap pictures.
  • Steel Diver™, a submarine game that involves strategy and combat. The 3D visuals give players the sensation that they are looking into a miniature aquarium as they control the sub's speed, depth and pitch, and fire torpedoes.
  • nintendogs™ + cats, a game that lets players interact with realistic puppies – and kittens – in a variety of fun ways. There are three versions of the software, each with different starting breeds: French bulldog, toy poodle and golden retriever. But in each version players can unlock and enjoy more than 20 different breeds.

Other Nintendo 3DS games in the works for 2011 from Nintendo include The Legend of Zelda™: Ocarina of Time™ 3D, Star Fox 64™ 3D, Kid Icarus™: Uprising and a new installment in the Mario Kart™ series.

Third-party publishers also have a strong slate of games ready to go on March 27. These include:

  • Super Street Fighter® IV 3D Edition from CAPCOM
  • The Sims™ 3 from EA
  • Madden NFL Football from EA SPORTS
  • Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 3D from Konami Digital Entertainment, Inc.
  • LEGO® Star Wars® III: The Clone Wars™ from LucasArts™
  • RIDGE RACER® 3D from NAMCO BANDAI Games America Inc.
  • Super Monkey Ball™ 3D from SEGA
  • BUST-A-MOVE UNIVERSE™ from Square-Enix, Inc.
  • SAMURAI WARRIORS®: Chronicles from TECMO KOEI AMERICA Corp.
  • Asphalt™ 3D from UBISOFT
  • Combat of Giants™: Dinosaurs 3D from UBISOFT
  • Rayman® 3D from UBISOFT
  • Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon® Shadow Wars from UBISOFT

Nintendo 3DS also comes pre-loaded with a variety of fun games, applications and features, such as the Nintendo 3DS camera, which can be used to take photos in 2D and 3D as well as be used in other games and applications. For instance, the built-in Face Raiders™ game asks users to shoot at funny depictions of their own photographed faces, while the Mii Maker™ application lets gamers use the camera to take a picture of a person and have an automatic Mii™ character created. The system also comes with six AR Cards, which, when viewed through the outer cameras, bring to life fun and interesting animations and images. For example, when used with nintendogs + cats, users might see their puppies or kittens sitting on their coffee tables or in the palms of their hands. With Nintendo 3DS Sound, users can enjoy sound-manipulation tools or rock out with their Nintendo 3DS system while listening to their MP3 or AAC music files.

Nintendo 3DS is also able to play nearly every game in the massive Nintendo DS library, except those that require use of a secondary Game Boy™ Advance slot.
