One of the main aspects that hasn’t been addressed in The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks is the game’s use of the train. While the boat from Phantom Hourglass provides the player with a great deal of freedom, there have been some concerns that the train sections of Spirit Tracks will be more like an on-rails experience. However, Nintendo has essentially put these fears to rest today. Nintendo of America’s Kit Ellis explained that while traveling, Link will be able to discover new areas and secrets, upgrade the train, and most importantly, you’ll be given the chance to create your own path as the game progresses.

“As with any Zelda game, exploration is a big part of it and you’re not just going from A to B on the train. You are uncovering secrets, finding new places, and the train you can actually upgrade as you go along. Eventually you’ll even be able to lay your own track and do a bit of exploration that way as well.”

Acclaimed Japanese newspaper Nikkei published an article in today’s paper regarding a new DSi model. In terms of functionality, it will be exactly the same as what is available on the market now. However, the size of the screen will be augmented to 4″. The price won’t be changing either – In Japan, the “new” DSi will cost 18900 yen. There’s no word yet if this model will release in other territories, although it is currently under discussion.

DEWSBURY, ENGLAND – 23rd October 2009 – The Code Monkeys, an independent videogame development studio, have revealed more details on their forthcoming ‘monkey opus’ Manic Monkey Mayhem, releasing on Nintendo WiiWare on October 30th.

With a variety of game modes across both single player and multiplayer, Manic Monkey Mayhem is set to be this autumn’s must have party game for Wii players of all ages. ‘Greatest Ape’ sees each player begin with a stockpile of bananas and three lives with the winner being the last monkey left standing on their podium. In ‘Minute Monkey’, all players have unlimited lives but the game is played against the clock in 1, 3 or 5 minute matches. The winner is the one that scores the most points before the clock runs down. The third game mode is ‘Ape Team’ where players are divided up in to two teams, with the objective being to defeat the other side by taking all three lives of every one of your opponents. The winning team is the one that removes every player of the opposing side from their podiums.
