I really wish North America was getting this game…


Today sees a raft of new releases that include great games and a Wii bundle designed to get everyone’s motor running!

Games hitting shop shelves today include sprawling adventure Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Reverie for Nintendo DS, 3D brawler DEAD OR ALIVE Dimensions for Nintendo 3DS and four vintage Wii titles in the Nintendo Selects range.

Also available from today is the Mario Kart Wii Pack, a new bundle that comes complete with a white Wii, Wii Remote Plus, Nunchuk and Wii Wheel – not to mention the multiplayer racing sensation, Mario Kart Wii!


I was under the impression that this wouldn’t end up in North America! Actually, it might have been for the better based on the footage I’ve seen of the title…

Apogee Software today announced the North American release date for the upcoming action title Duke Nukem: Critical Mass™ celebrating Duke Nukem’s long overdue return to the gaming world and his first ever adventure for the Nintendo DS™ handheld system.

Duke is sent into the future; a future of total chaos and disaster where humankind has been nearly wiped out, all the babes have been captured and enslaved, and aliens rule with an iron fist; a world in trouble with horrendous monsters, alien pig cops, ridiculously oversized bosses and, of course, beautiful, scantily-clad babes galore – this game has all the ingredients a serious Duke Nukem fan needs.


I wonder which game will be worse: The Smurfs on Wii, or The Smurfs on DS?
