Jason Rubin, co-founder of Naughty Dog and former THQ president, closed out GameTrailers’ Bonus Round with a few somewhat harsh words about Nintendo. Rubin remarked, “Nintendo is irrelevant as a hardware manufacturer in the console business.”
Rubin did praise the company as a whole, however. Nintendo is a “worldwide treasure,” he said, while also noting how “it is a crime that we do not play those games on the systems that we have.”
Data collected by shopping market research firm InfoScout indicates that the Xbox One was the most popular gaming console during Black Friday 2013, thanks to a 31 percent market share. Xbox 360 followed with a 30 percent share. The PlayStation 4 and PS3 were next with 15 percent each. Nintendo closed things out with a 6 percent share for Wii U and 1 percent share for Wii.
InfoScout also reveals the top-selling games for the Black Friday period. Call of Duty: Ghosts came out top, with Disney Infinity, Skylanders Swap Force, Grand Theft Auto V, and Madden NFL 25 rounding out the top five.
Mansion Lord, Golgom Games’ “RPG/business sim” with a murder mystery twist, could find its way to Wii U.
The team is currently seeking $28,000 in funding to make Mansion Lord a reality. If donations exceed $85,000, we’ll be seeing the game on Wii U. This would need to happen by December 19.

Forbes has put up a new interview with Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime. Wii U’s competition and third-party support were discussed, as was the issue of people not understanding the system is a new console – which Reggie believes has been addressed.

Took a few photos of Prima’s Zelda Box Set
, which you can find in the gallery above. I decided to do a bit of a size comparison as well to show you how big the box/bookmark are by including a 3DS XL in some of the shots. On another note, the box with the guides weigh a ton – definitely over 20 pounds.
