Setting up marriage proposals through video games seem to be more common these days. Enthusiasts have used LittleBigPlanet and Chrono Trigger to woo their loved ones. And most recently, a classic Mario game – Super Mario World – was modified so that a gamer could ask his girlfriend to marry him.

“My nerdy way to propose. On October 15th 2009, it was out 5 year anniversary so i decided to propose. Using a program called lunar magic I was able to spell ‘lisa… Will you marry me?’ she may not look too surprised in the video but you should of seen her afterwords, she couldn’t sit still!!! And no it wasn’t staged, but I did sit her down told her to play some Super Mario World, but she totally didn’t know she was being recorded!!”

New Super Mario Bros. Wii won’t be making its worldwide debut until next month, but the first review of the game is already in. The Official Nintendo Magazine published the review it the most recent issue of the magazine, awarding it with a 96%. It was stated that the “timeless Mario magic is present” and that it “looks and sounds incredible.” And perhaps the the concerns about the game being too easy can be put to rest once and for all, as ONM said that New Super Mario Bros. Wii “starts easy, ends hard as nails.” The only negative point brought up at the end of the article is that the reviewer would have liked to see more of Yoshi. Still, overall, New Super Mario Bros. Wii sounds like it’ll please fans.

Thanks to Josh for the news tip!

Dead Space Extraction has only been out in the market for a few weeks, but it’s not off to a stellar start, supposedly. A member over at NeoGAF (who is thought to be Louis Gascoigne, a programmer at Visceral Games) posted a message on the forum, noting that “It is a shame nobody bought this.”

But there’s some unfortunate news for Wii owners. In June, EA Games label president Frank Gibeau stated that the company was “going to take a gamble and build that (mature) market” with Dead Space Extraction. As a result of the title’s poor sales so far though, EA’s decision to publish mature content for the Wii will be influenced, along with the SKU plan.
