Club Nintendo members can now choose from four new games. Tetris (150 coins), Snowpack Park (150 coins), Punch-Out!! Featuring Mr. Dream (200 coins), and Mario Kart 64 (200 coins) are the new selections. Each title will remain on Club Nintendo through February 10.

Head on over to this link to check out each downloadable reward.


Tomorrow’s Pokemon Direct, which will feature a big announcement of some sort, will be ten minutes of long. That should be plenty of time for an announcement and video from Nintendo president Satoru Iwata.

Any final guesses, guys? New generation Pokemon title? Anyone hoping this will be a Wii U title?

There could have been a Streets of Rage 4. Series composer Yuzo Koshiro told Destructoid at MAGFest 11 this weekend that he was contacted about the project about ten years ago. The team made a prototype soon after, but SEGA rejected the title.

Even though fans haven’t seen a new Streets of Rage title in many, many years, there have been a few attempts to revive the series. Most recently, a behind-the-scenes prototype remake from Ruffian Games was outed.

A couple of months ago, one Metro: Last Light developer made a remark stating that the Wii U has a “horrible, slow” CPU. But Team Ninja boss Yosuke Hayashi, responding to the claim, says this is not so. Hayashi feels the comment “was just 4A trying to find a scapegoat for a simple business decision on their part.”

“The Wii U is an infant that’s just been born. It’s a little unfair to compare it to mature platforms that people have been working on for over five years. I’m sure people will find ways to bring out even more power as the platform matures. To be completely blunt and honest, there’s no way that the Wii U processor is ‘horrible and slow’ compared to other platforms. I think that comment was just 4A trying to find a scapegoat for a simple business decision on their part.”

Hayashi does acknowledge that the Wii U may not be a next-gen console from the standpoint of its processor speed. However, he believes its next-gen nature stems from innovation and “Wii U being a new idea that challenges existing platforms”.

“If you’re basing this simply on processor speed, then it’s not next generation. If you’re basing this on Wii U being a new idea that challenges existing platforms, then it definitely is next generation. It is a console videogame platform that is now independent of the TV. Nobody has done that before. It’s no mistake to say that we have entered a period where it’s difficult to provide an obvious difference to many players based on processor speed alone. Players want new innovation that includes the environment in which you play and services you use, rather than just raw processor spec. Nintendo is at the forefront of that innovation. I’m looking forward to seeing what the other platforms come up with in the future.”
