Late into the dying moments of E3 2011 we finally got our hands on the new Wii U controller. Here’s me showing off my defensive skills with the only demo that even remotely resembled a game. The Pirate Demo! Erm… I mean… The Shield Pose Demo! Most of the technical demos were pretty dry, as you might expect. I have [...]
Nintendo was the last of the big companies to take the stage and bring a close this year’s pre-E3 media briefings. Obviously everyone was eager to see what Nintendo’s new console looks like and what Mario’s latest outing would be. Here’s what Nintendo revealed. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword This is coming to the Wii later on this year, [...]
With the Wii seemingly coming to the end of its lifecycle, and a new Nintendo console on the horizon, now seems a good time to look back at some great WiiWare games, that many Wii owners may have missed. The Wii Shop Channel is home to some cracking titles, but it is really not very user friendly, and Nintendo’s stubborn [...]
To promote the release of Kirby’s Epic Yarn on the Wii, Nintendo is giving the grayest area in the UK a makeover on the 24th Feb 2011. Elephant and Castle in South London was voted by Londoners the greyest place in the UK. Clearly some of them have never been to Hull ;-) So for one day only, Elephant and [...]
One of my all time favourite games is now available for download on the Nintendo Virtual Console. Released in the arcades in 1987, Black Tiger is a classic 2D action/adventure game.

Fitness has been an ongoing battle for me. Going to the gym is so boring that I don’t even try to make excuses any more. I once took a beginner’s dance class but was shamed by the 16-year-olds who would string together every routine effortlessly on the first attempt. Me and the other 25+ newbies? We’re not going back. My [...]
Here is a trailer showing a glimpse of the type of multiplayer combat you can expect in the new version of GoldenEye 007. Slappers only (now called melee for some silly reason!) is obviously the stand out weapon choice for those GoldenEye veterans like me who got through university by playing lots of GoldenEye on the N64. Having seen quite [...]
Bond is back in a remake of the classic N64 shooter GoldenEye. However, the graphics aren’t the only thing that has changed. Pierce Brosnan has been replaced with Daniel Craig and the layout to the levels has changed. I do hope they haven’t messed up the gameplay too. I loved GoldenEye on the N64 and spent a huge amount of [...]
