Nintendo Download: Fast Cars and a Feisty Doctor Deliver Fresh Downloadable Fun
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 0 comments
This week’s new downloadable games for Nintendo systems include two different ways to get behind the wheel – one futuristic, the other retro. In FAST – Racing League for the WiiWare™ service, players can fast-forward 100 years into the future to experience antigravity racing thrills. In Valet Parking 1989™ for the Nintendo DSiWare™ service, they can jump back a couple of decades to strategically handle a host of vintage ’80s automobiles. For those who prefer hospitals instead of hot rods, House M.D. – Globetrotting gives Nintendo DSi™ owners a way to immerse themselves in a rich medical drama. And for timeless console fun, the Super NES™ classic Super Adventure Island is now playable on the Wii™ system via the Virtual Console™ service. Whatever your gaming appetite demands, these great new downloads can help you kick off your summer with a smile.

Rumor: Nintendo representative says The Last Story is heading to Europe
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii | 0 comments
Rumor has it that a Nintendo representative “confirmed” that The Last Story is heading to Europe. The spokesperson was asked about the title at the London MCM expo. I wouldn’t get too excited just yet, as reps have provided wrong information many times before. However, this is an encouraging sign, and if true, hopefully the game will make an appearance at E3.

Spike will have live demo of Zelda: Skyward Sword during E3 week
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
This information comes from Geoff Keighley…
“Can’t say too much about E3 week on Spike/GT yet, but here’s one nugget: We’ll have the first live demo of Zelda: Skyward Sword.”
Nice to see that SpikeTV will be giving Nintendo some love. I really hope that this year’s Skyward Sword offers more than the one on display at E3 2010. More varied environments would be nice, and it’s be great if we could learn more about the game’s story.
