A 2D game doesn’t seem like a great candidate for glitches… does it? Turns out that New Super Mario Bros. U has a handful of em to check out, so I tackle two of them in this new episode of Eggbusters. The first glitch doesn’t go quite as planned, but all things considered I’d say that the second one easily makes up for the frustration. Check it out! (pah!)

I picked it up myself. Review forthcoming.

This is a two question survey that requires no signing up, accounts, clicking through ads, or anything. Just answer a required question, answer a non-required question (if you want) and make your voice heard in yet another NintendoEverything reader survey poll thing! Results will be read in the form of our top ten list on the next podcast, and if you opted to answer the written question your answer could be read on the show! So don’t say anything ridiculous.

Here we go: I’ve finally given in to your demands and jumped right back into the uber-crazy ‘Back in Time’ glitch from The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Last time we explored it, we ended up in twilight-realm Kakariko Village playing as human Link, but the game froze when we went inside of a house and then left. This time? Stuff gets even crazier, which is hard to believe considering how ridiculous last time was.

It’s like Wave Race, only on dirt. And with less color. And fewer dolphins.

Author: Austin

The last time the gaming industry saw a truly decent entry in the “X-treme” sports genre was probably well before the launch of the last generation of consoles. Every once in a while a snowboarding game or a skating game will crop up, re-enthuse folks for a few months, and then disappear as quietly as it came (2007’s Skate, anyone?). There seems to be a perpetual cycle with such games that cannot be broken, and more often than not it’s due to the fact that they rely more on appealing to the “skater” aesthetic than having good platforming (such is what brought the Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater series so much acclaim) or solid racing mechanics (such as Wave Race 64).

So here comes Mutant Mudds and Dementium developer Renegade Kid, trodding up to our virtual eShop doorsteps with their own attempt to succeed within the confines of a genre that had its heyday in the early to mid-2000s. When you first see a screenshot or watch a trailer for ATV Wild Ride 3D, it looks and sounds– certainly to its detriment– like everything you’ve ever seen before. Fast paced alternative rock, lots of overly-enthused voice effects, plenty of dirt, and “massive air” are all staples of a game presenting itself in this somewhat-dated genre, but in the case of this Renegade Kid racer, bland first impressions have proven to be all but incorrect after spending some time with the game:

Wild Ride is, thankfully, neither bland nor dated.
