Amazon is selling 007 Legends for just $17.98 through a third-party seller. It’s a significant drop from the original $60 price point. 007 Legends may be far from the Wii U’s best game, but if you’re looking to fill up your library, you may want to consider this one.


One great piece of news: The 90’s Arcade Racer is running at 60 FPS on Wii U.

A new PC is surfacing on auction sites that allows Dragon Quest X players to quickly level up. The hardware possesses a special macro that puts your character on autopilot for a few days. It does the work for you… cheating, essentially.

Here’s the crazy part about this: the PC is going for $1,000. Some Japanese Dragon Quest X users have already purchased and used it just to level up their characters.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t ever see myself spending $1,000 on a game like that.

When you refresh Nintendo’s E3 site, a new character silhouette appears. It’s not too big of a deal since they’re images we’ve already seen before – Pikmin, Mario & Luigi: Dream Team, Wind Waker, and Super Mario Galaxy art. Still, some of you may want to have a look.


Spelunker is now set for release on the Wii U eShop on June 6 – next Thursday.

The game was originally expected to arrive yesterday based on a listing on Nintendo’s own website. However, it was nowhere to be found on the eShop, and it wasn’t mentioned in the Nintendo Download announcement.

Nintendo’s listing has since been updated with the June 6 date. You’ll be able to download the title for $4.99.

Nintendo’s E3 2013 website is locked and loaded. Access it here.

Naturally, there isn’t a ton of content on the site at present, but it does confirm that a live-stream will be hosted directly on the page. Additionally, the site promises “game trailers, interviews, and more.” We’ll likely be seeing coverage similar to that of Nintendo All-Access content from previous years.

One other tidbit – Nintendo’s E3 site confirms the number of Wii U titles that will be playable at Best Buy locations. That would be four. Pikmin 3, Mario 3D, Wind Waker HD and Mario Kart Wii U are likely to be on display. Those are just my guesses!



During an AMA (“ask me anything”) on reddit last night, Precursor Games executive Shawn Jackson was asked whether or not we could see Shadow of the Eternals (a spiritual successor to Gamecube hit Eternal Darkness) come out even if the Kickstarter didn’t reach his goal. His response:


“Since we do not have any other source of funding, it is unlikely.”

– Precursor exec Shawn Jackson


As their campaign has only reached $270,000 of their $1.5M goal, things aren’t looking great for the project as it stands right now. Unless something big happens and people get on board, we probably won’t see a spiritual sequel to Eternal Darkness anytime soon, despite how much clamoring we had for one.
