Weirdness Mario Kart 8's Yoshi Bike Found In Japan
Well, kind of...
Those familiar with the latest instalment in the Mario Kart series will know that one of the available vehicles is the 'Yoshi Bike' - a motorbike shaped as Mario's long-time dino companion, obviously. As cool as it looks in the game (if that's the kind of thing that floats your boat), it looks even better in real-life. Twitter user...
Reminder There's Only One More Week Left To Vote In The Super Smash Bros. Fighter Ballot
Who's it gonna be?!
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U & 3DS has been a game that's kept on giving, with its consistent DLC of new characters, stages and Mii Fighter costumes. However, on April 1st 2015, Nintendo went one step further and announced the Super Smash Bros. Fighter Ballot in one of its Directs - a voting system where players can submit...

Water that makes your mouth water
Over the past few months, fans of Nintendo have done amazing jobs of creating HD builds of beloved Nintendo IP in stunning atmospheres within Unity 3D and Unreal Engine 4.

"We're basically licensing the amiibo technology from Nintendo"

Video See Greninja's Taunt Actually KO Opponents At High Enough Damage
Bringing the hurt with a water spurt
It's no secret that a select few of Super Smash Bros. characters can deal damage (albeit very little) using taunts. In fact, it's been the case since the very first iteration on the Nintendo 64, with Luigi's shyly executed kick being able to hurt opponents by up to a whopping 2%. With the arrival of Super Smash...
Weirdness T-Pose Result Screen Glitch Found In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
Although very difficult to perform
YouTuber Master0fHyrule has created a video of a glitch found by Miiverse user Glob in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U, and for once it's not one that can turn the tide in mid-battle. The glitch results in the winning character/team poised in a 'T-Pose' position during the results screen after a match. For those...

News Yet Another PAC-MAN Glitch Has Surfaced In Super Smash Bros.
This is whacka-whacka
PAC-MAN has had his history of glitches in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U (the double-team infinite jump in 2v2, as well as the fire hydrant being able to go through the Smashville stage), but thankfully these were patched out. Not so fast Nintendo, there's a new glitch in town, and this one makes PAC-MAN an...
News Hyrule Warriors Producer Confirms More Characters Are Coming to Hyrule Warriors Legends
But won't say who exactly...
For some, the announcement of Hyrule Warriors Legends coming to the Nintendo 3DS is a great reason to relive/start the game that originated on the Wii U. However, to those needing more of an excuse, it was confirmed during Nintendo's E3 Digital Event that Hyrule Warriors Legends will come with all the DLC from the...
News Reggie Explains Why Donkey Kong And Bowser Were Chosen For Skylanders SuperChargers
As well as how the Activision partnership came to be

Video This Fan-Made Zelda Sketch Shows What Happens When Link Runs Out Of Loose Change
High-res rupees
Fan creations are always something that spark a lot of interest, as they allow fans to see what could've been without them having to wait for it to actually happen from the official source - if ever. Take Project M for example - a modified version of Super Smash Bros. Brawl created by dedicated members of the Smash community - which...
Video Smash Bros. Characters Get Gruesome with Mortal Kombat X's 'X-Ray' Moves
FINISH HIM!
Despite inhabiting the fighting game realm - a genre perhaps associated with lifelike violence - the Super Smash Bros. series has done exceptionally well in keeping its games clean and friendly. However, YouTuber Sterling has added a twist to the beloved Nintendo franchise, and created a video containing a mash-up of two of the current...
Video GameChap Shows Us Five Ways to Get Banned From Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
The watchful eye of the Nintendo spy...
It's a well known fact that Nintendo is very strict with its policies, and this includes the behaviour of players online. It's a reason (amongst others) as to why voice chat is disabled on titles such as Mario Kart 8 and Splatoon, as the possibility of cyber-bullying is significantly reduced. Although it's...
Video 'Smashified' Series Adds King K. Rool to the Collection of Super Smash Bros. Speed Paintings
In a while, crocodile?
YouTuber Artsy Omni has added a new video to the 'Smashified' series (a series that takes our favourite and most-wanted characters for Smash Bros. DLC and recreates them in the game's art style), and this time the focus is on King K. Rool - a logical choice considering that the antagonist of the Donkey Kong series is arguably...
News Flygon Was Once Going to Receive a Mega Evolution
...but didn't due to design challenges
Love them or hate them, Pokémon X & Y were revolutionary titles in the Pokémon handheld series - and not just because of their enhancements in art style and graphics. The two games introduced the Mega Evolution mechanic, where a selection of Pokemon were able to Mega Evolve into a Super Saiyan-like form...
Video Super Smash Bros. Glitch Turns Kirby Into A Great Ball Of Fire
It's a hot trick
It's only inevitable for a game like Super Smash Bros. to have its glitches emerge on a regular basis due to the amount of playtime that it is subjected to by millions of players everyday. Each match consists of a multitude of factors, triggering all kinds of events. In fact, a strange outcome of becoming 'Fire Kirby' has recently...
News Empty Slots on Super Smash Bros. Site Suggests More Upcoming DLC Characters
They're toying with us!
One of the biggest pieces of news from last week's Nintendo Direct was the Smash Bros.

Of course, this has sparked much interest, with players voting for both realistic - and...
Feature The Best Pro Wrestling Games That the N64 Has to Offer
We're tapping in, not out.
The thought of a modern pro wrestling game these days is often coupled with an eye-roller. They've become as iterative as most sports games released on an annual basis - such as FIFA and Madden - but certainly have far less to offer than the examples just mentioned. What we're left with is a game that's ever-so-slightly...
Video Nintendo Star Makes Brief Cameo Appearance in Pixels Movie Teaser
The one that started it all...
Nintendo has recently shared a very short teaser for Sony's upcoming Pixels movie across its social networking accounts, and have asked the audience as to which big N icon they could spot.

Weirdness Fan Creates Custom amiibo of Sonic Characters
They're comin' at the speed of sound...
It really doesn't seem like the custom amiibo hype train will put on the brakes anytime soon, with new figures and high demand still prominent.

News Majora's Mask 3D Glitch Unlocks Fierce Deity Link Anywhere
Plus early access to forbidden areas
It's logical to think that remakes not only improve in both visual and playability departments, but also on the removal of glitches that once existed in the original cartridge's confines. Take the first generation of Pokemon games for instance - a great set of games, but packed with game-breaking glitches...
Video YouTube Musician Smooth McGroove Performs Majora's Mask Milk Bar Acapella
Milkin' it at the perfect time...
Popular YouTuber Smooth McGroove is at it again, and this time he tackles the 'Milk Bar' from Majora's Mask with a great level of detail and precision (as always). His 'Oath to Order / Calling the Four Giants' upload a week ago proved to go down exceptionally well with all the hype surrounding Majora's Mask 3D this...
