Nintendo EAD Game Reviews
Nintendo's first pack-in title in nearly over a decade is a lot of fun. Period.
A great launch title for the Nintendo Wii has proven to be Wii Sports, not only because it's fun even among non-gamers, but it comes free packaged with the Wii (except in Japan). Wii Sports isn't the most complex game, but it isn't meant to be the detailed, highly...
Review F-Zero (Wii Virtual Console / Super Nintendo)
From zero to Mode 7 hero
Before WipEout, there was F-Zero. Nintendo's futuristic racer was one of the first SNES releases, but shows very little sign of aging — in fact, it feels just as fresh and fun today as it did all those years ago. Graphically, the Mode 7 effects have obviously lost some of their edge when viewed today but the visuals are...
Review The Legend of Zelda (Wii Virtual Console / NES)
The brave Link begins his hazardous journey in the fantastic world of Hyrule.
Where it all began - it's amazing how playable and fresh this games feels, even after all these years! Although the visuals and sound are hardly going to turn heads these days, the core Zelda gameplay is all present and correct. The Legend of Zelda is a famous series...
The famous simulation in which one takes the role of a mayor and must help a new city thrive and become a megalopolis.
Before ‘The Sims’ there was SimCity. This game was on most home computer systems at the time but the SNES port with its exclusive features and additional scenarios ranks as one of the better versions. The SimCity series has...
Touching is good!

With other excellent selections for the DS with much more depth though, this game has been overlooked by many. However, it isn't all that bad. The game starts out with you controlling baby...
Review New Super Mario Bros. (DS)
New and improved?
Just a little over 20 years ago, Nintendo released their Nintendo Entertainment System onto the US gaming market and packaged with it, a game that would forever change the landscape of video games. This game was the original Super Mario Bros. and it single-handedly sold millions of NES systems. Over the next five years Nintendo...
Review Animal Crossing: Wild World (DS)
It's so cute!
To tell you the truth, I don't feel like Animal Crossing: Wild World is a video game. To me, it's more of a hangout. It's a fantasy world you can go to, to escape from reality…especially if you enjoy collecting furniture and planting pear trees. Wild World takes you away from your dull and boring life, to an alternate world full of...
Review Animal Crossing (GameCube)
Nintendo's Animal Crossing, is a unique game. An RPG, without much of a story but so much more...
Animal Crossing is a unique game with no overall aim or any way to complete it. You start out on a train heading towards a village. You start talking to an animal who eventually puts you in contact with a friendly racoon who can sell you a house in...
Filled with Nintendo magic, Pikmin will enlighten your life while it lasts.
