Ninja Commando on Virtual Console

It's a Neo-Geo Friday for Virtual Console users in Europe and Australia. Seems to me like this system and the TG-16 get a LOT of VC releases considering they weren't exactly the most popular consoles. I don't even know anybody who owned either. So how about some games that.. y'know.. were playable on NINTENDO! HNNNNNGGGGG \m/ >_< \m/ Anyway.. Ninja Commando (Neo-Geo) Art of Fighting 2... read more

According to an article in Famitsu, Capcom's Mega Man 9 will feature downloadable content. Unfortunately that's as far as the details go. Levels, bosses, weapons, playable characters, it could be anything. The game also has a price, it will set you back 1,000 Wii Points. That's alright by me.... read more

Redneck kitchen line, no deal

A host of cover arts for the latest (but not greatest) Wii games. These are all for North America. Redneck Jamboree. The best events in life are usually 'redneck inspired'. Hell's Kitchen. Enjoy this cook-em-up while angry chef Gordon Ramsay berates you for not cleaning a mushroom properly. Most likely the best game in this sorry lineup is Line Rider 2: Unbound. Deal or No Deal.... read more

Accessories maker Logic 3 are bringing out a keyboard specifically designed for the Wii. Although details are still hard to come by, it's currently listed on Amazon UK. The product description has no size dimensions, but being only QWERTYUIOP keys wide, it's likely to be quite small. Something you could more easily fit on your lap while using the Internet Channel for example. Beauty or beast? The Wii... read more

These games are 100 Yen a pop (approximately 93 US cents), based on... read more
