24th February 2010 – This time last year, the crazy kids at SEGA Australia pulled out a whiteboard, wrote some words on it, head-butted some brick walls, wrote some more words… and came up with The Bang Bang Box!!! To mark the anniversary of this epic day, those same special minds have created a new box-o-fun. A trigger-tapping triple-barrel terrorfest, we like to call WELCOME TO VIOLENCE. This pack features three of the most controversial adult games available on the Wii – Madworld, The Conduit and The House of the Dead: OVERKILL – for only $109.95!! Available on the 11th March 2010.

This is the only bit of news I forgot to share with you guys earlier today. With all of the craziness that happened, I suppose it just slipped my mind.
In any case, new prizes for Club Nintendo are on the way. Mario posters, Game & Watch Collection 2, and Grill-Off Ultra Hand will be released on the service. As you’d probably expect, the last two prizes will be for the DS and Wii respectively. Nintendo has yet to reveal when the prizes will go live, but look out for them in the coming weeks.

Sin & Punishment: Star Successor brings a one of a kind shooter gameplay created by the undisputed masters of the genre.
In 2007, Super Mario Galaxy took the world of video games by storm. Now this first true Mario sequel in years re-energizes the franchise with new levels and new power-ups. Plus this time Mario gets to team up with his dinosaur buddy Yoshi, who adds new possibilities to the gravity-defying game play. It’s everything you love about the first game and more.

For decades, Samus Aran has been known as one of the first female protagonists in video games, and one of the most enigmatic. Having traded her haunted past for the solitary life of a bounty hunter, Samus™ finally tells her own tale in this revealing, personal story of her failings, her flaws and ultimately her motivation. Metroid: Other M is an unprecedented collaboration that blends the slick, action-packed production of the world-renowned Team Ninja development team with the game design talents of the creators of the original Metroid. Metroid: Other M is a dramatic new direction for a legendary franchise and a bold new blend between cinematics, storytelling and the best in interactive entertainment.
