The wait was incredibly long, but the Nuketown 2025 map finally came to Call of Duty: Black Ops II on Wii U yesterday. That might not be the only piece of new content heading to the game.
IGN spotted the Die Rise in Black Ops II’s menus, though it hasn’t actually been added just yet. We’ll have to wait and see if it ends up being accessible.

Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver, Black/White are still selling
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 7 Comments
Nintendo games tend to be evergreen titles. By that, we mean that they’ll continue to sell well after their initial release.
Case and point: the Pokemon games. Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver, released in 2010, sold an additional 50,000 units between March 2013 and March 2014. Pokemon Black/White managed to move 160,000 units as well during the same time span. Lifetime sales of HeartGold/SoulSilver and Black/White are at 12.72 million units and 15.58 million units respectively.
Two Pokemon entries that aren’t selling any longer are Diamond and Pearl. They were at 17.63 million units as of March 2013, and nothing has changed since this March.
This Super Mario 64 Goomba can’t be killed
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 3 Comments
Like the “impossible coin”, there are other mysterious elements in Super Mario 64. One of these concerns a Goomba that has never been killed.
Bowser in the Sky holds what should be a triangle-formation Goomba group on one of its platforms. However, there is one Goomba that was initially presumed missing.
As it turns out, Super Mario 64 spawns the missing Goomba on the bottom of the map. It’s almost immediately killed due to its location.
Several methods have been created in hopes of defeating the Goomba, but none have worked thus far. It’s quite the mystery!

Former Vigil devs form new studio “Gunfire Games”, interested in Darksiders

When THQ closed its doors, a large portion of former developers from Vigil Games moved on to Crytek USA. But just last month, Vigil founder and Crytek USA head David Adams left the company. He has since gone on to create a brand new independent studio, Gunfire Games.
Gunfire Games is just getting started and is employing a handful of people. All are leads from Crytek USA.
While things are definitely early, Adams told Polygon that Gunfire is exploring the possibility of returning to Darksiders. In fact, the studio has spoken with Darksiders IP owner Nordic Games.
