Spawning a million clones and re-appearing throughout the history of gaming, 1942’s biplane action needs no introduction. And now, for the first time on the Wii, the original and best version.
Black Tiger – Fight your way through colorful, action-packed levels in this 1987 arcade classic. Explore huge, sprawling levels as a powerful barbarian, seeking to defeat menacing bosses. Plus, upgrade your character with one of the first inventory and power-up systems ever built.For all info and assets related to 1942 and Black Tiger on Nintendo Virtual Console, please head on over to http://www.capcom-unity.com

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 0 comments
When it comes to downloadable games for the Wii™ and Nintendo DSi™ systems, you never know what each day might have in store. One minute you’ll be throwing elbows and speeding around the track in Jam City Rollergirls for the WiiWare™ service. Next, you’ll travel back in time for classic arcade-style air battles in 1942 for the Virtual Console™ service. Then it’s back to the present, where you’ve got to stay cool under pressure as an air traffic mastermind in Airport Mania®: Non-Stop Flights for Nintendo DSiWare™. Just when things start to settle down, Rocks N’ Rockets will inspire you to step up and fight off an onslaught of deadly meteors using your Nintendo DSi stylus. With hundreds of downloadable titles to choose from – plus demo versions of select WiiWare games for zero Wii Points™ – you’ll never face another humdrum afternoon again.

Nintendo Wifi Connection – As bad as Xbox Live, only worse than Xbox Live
Posted on 13 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in Features, Wii | 0 comments
There seems to be an eternal argument going on about violent video games and children, and what sort of adverse affects that these video games may or may not have on such youngsters. Now, I’m no psychologist or specialist on the subject by any means- hell, my opinion doesn’t even mean any more than yours does- but I feel that I need to get this out there for people to read. You see, I’ve been playing a lot of Call of Duty: Black Ops on the Wii lately, and I’ve noticed a lot of very, very poor parenting going on as I play.
