Nintendo News: Nintendo’s MARIO SPORTS MIX Delivers Four Over-the-Top Sports on Feb. 7

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Mario™ has a long history as a sports fan. Throughout his storied career he has pursued an interest in golf, tennis, baseball and go-karting, to name just a few. Now Mario’s tackling four different sports at the same time, all of them included on one disc for the Wii™ console. The game MARIO™ SPORTS MIX lets players jump into games of hockey, basketball, volleyball or dodgeball. The game launches on Feb. 7.
MARIO SPORTS MIX presents these four familiar sports – but with a Mario twist. Players can choose from a variety of playable Mushroom Kingdom characters and can even challenge Mario and friends directly by playing as their own Mii™ characters. Each game contains a number of Mushroom Kingdom power-ups that can turn the tide of a game in an instant, such as banana peels, green shells and even mini mushrooms. In over-the-top Mario sports fashion, each character can unleash his or her unique special move that ranges from Mario’s fire dunk in basketball to Yoshi’s rainbow attack in dodgeball.

Confirmed: January 19 is the big day for 3DS

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii | 0 comments

Last week, we heard that Nintendo of Europe will be holding a conference in Amsterdam next month. Shortly thereafter, there was some speculation involving Nintendo of America having an event of their own in New York City. Thanks to IGN’s Rich George, the rumor has been confirmed. George posted the following messages on his Twitter account:

“Looks like busy times in NYC on 1/19/11. You should probably tune into IGN on that day. Just sayin’. 1/19/11 is in fact the date for Nintendo’s big 3DS unveil. I would expect full details at that time. NYC here we come!”

This event appears to be completely dedicated to 3DS information. George doesn’t seem confident that The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword – the Wii’s biggest title of 2011 – will be making an appearance.

“3DS, yes. Zelda is very unlikely.”
