edit: An incredibly close race has ensued! Only one vote separates the current leader from the second place contender!

So there you go. We conquered Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars for our first ever NintendoEverything Book Club, and now it’s time to start thinking ahead! We won’t be playing the next game until next weekend (and we won’t be discussing it until two weeks from now) but today we need to get the voting part out of the way!

You’ve got six games to choose from this time around, all of which are hand-picked to suit a shorter play session compared to the 20-odd hour Mario RPG since we want to wrap up Book Club #2 by the time E3 rolls around. Your options are as follows:



Mole Mania (GB/3DS VC) follows a mole named “Muddy Mole” whose wife and children have been stolen by the farmer, Jinbe. Muddy has to go find his wife and children by finding his way through puzzle based worlds. Cost: $3.

Zombies Ate My Neighbors (SNES/Wii VC) is a run and gun video game developed by LucasArts and originally published by Konami for the Super Nintendo and Sega Mega Drive/Sega Genesis consoles in 1993. The object of the game is for one or two players to take control of protagonists Zeke and Julie to rescue the titular neighbors from monsters often seen in horror movies. Cost: $8.

ActRaiser (SNES/Wii VC) is a 1990 Super Nintendo Entertainment System action and city-building simulation game developed by Quintet and published by Enix (now Square Enix) that combines traditional side-scrolling platforming with urban planning god game sections. Cost: $8.

Pokémon Snap (N64/Wii VC) is a first-person rail shooter and simulation video game developed by HAL Laboratory with Pax Softnica and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo 64 video game console. The objective of the game is to take pictures of Pokémon, using items such as apples and “pester balls” to achieve better shots. After each round, players are judged based on the quality of their screenshots. Cost: $10

Luigi’s Mansion (GCN) is an action-adventure game published by Nintendo for the GameCube. The game takes place in a haunted mansion when Luigi wins a contest that he never entered. He told his brother to meet him there to celebrate his victory. Luigi is searching for his brother Mario, who came to the mansion earlier, but went missing. Cost: $50+

The Starship Damrey (3DS eShop) is a mystery and survival horror game designed by Kazuya Asano and Takemaru Abiko. The game throws players into a suspenseful environment with no tutorials or hints to guide them. Cost: Probably ~$10.

I really hope on not the only one out there with an extreme love for Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater. The more open world platformers in the world, the better the better off we are I say! Enjoy this latest episode of Eggbusters.

D3Publisher will be distributing a new title based on the Cartoon Network animated series Regular Show, GameFly has hinted. The retailer lists “Regular Show: Mordecai and Rigby in 8-bit Land” for release on the 3DS later this year.

GameFly doesn’t include many details on its product page. As mentioned above, D3P is listed as published. GameFly also says that the game will launch on October 29.

In other news that some folks may (or may not) care about, GameFly lists Ben 10 Omniverse 2 for the Wii U and 3DS. The game hasn’t been announced yet, but GameFly lists a November 5 release date.

Okay, I admit that this is far from a major discount, but it is a deal: Fire Emblem: Awakening is available on Amazon for $34.96. Given how tough it has been to find Awakening at retail, that’s a pretty darn good price. And have we mentioned that the game is great?

Insomniac CEO and founder Ted Price recently said that he considers the Wii U to be more of a current-gen console. That doesn’t mean that he and his studio have no interest in the console, however.

In fact, Price himself is a fan of the Wii U, and believes high-quality Nintendo games will give a much-needed boost to the system:

“As a player what I would love to see is more of those games that I grew up with. Zeldas, Marios, Metroid – those are the games I look for from Nintendo, and I hope more of them come out for the Wii U.”
