Video Rodea The Sky Soldier Takes Flight In This Fresh Gameplay Trailer
Sky fallin'
Rodea the Sky Soldier's rather drawn-out route to market would be enough to make any video game character feel a little downhearted, but this flighty protagonist isn't giving up. With the Japanese launch in the bag and a North American release just around the corner, we're being treated to some more gameplay footage from the Yuji Naka's...
Weirdness In Some Parallel Dimension, This Nintendo Cross Presentation Might Actually Be Real
Keeping it real fake
Nintendo is working on its next console - dubbed the "NX" - but the company remained tight-lipped at this year's E3. 2015 will go down as a period of transition for the Japanese veteran as it looks to slowly retire its current pair of consoles and move towards something new and exciting, but the lack of solid news means that...

After a short delay, Splatoon's fabled Splatfest event is arriving in the West this weekend beginning on the 4th July.

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...
Video Mario is Unreal in This New Take on The Plumber's Adventures
Utilises Unreal Engine 4 and goes viral
Though we now have Mario looking fabulous in HD, most notably in Super Mario 3D World, fans and those keen to work on their coding still like to create their own flashy re-imaginings of the plumber's adventures.

Forthcoming Wii U eShop release is lost in space
Indie developer TACS Games has kindly sent us a brand new trailer for his upcoming Wii U eShop title Factotum, and we're really digging the "BBC Sci-Fi" vibe.

Video Avert Your Eyes, This Japanese Animal Crossing Commercial Features Shameful Groping
Poor Tom Nook
Nintendo is pretty unique in the video game industry because unlike Sony and Microsoft, it actually spends money reminding people that some of its evergreen hits are still on sale. Take this latest Japanese commercial for Animal Crossing: New Leaf - a game that originally launched in that region in 2012 - featuring pop star Kyary...

News Nintendo Japan Releases Two Neat E3 Summary Videos
Get a feel for the booth and Nintendo World Championships
It may seem peculiar to those of us that savour the E3 bubble, but it's not as big a deal globally as some may think. Nintendo's Japanese homeland is an example - there's an awareness of E3, but probably not the laser focus that's applied in the West. For those that found it all a bit much...

Video The Nintendo Life Reaction to Nintendo's E3 Digital Event
With smiles on our faces...
In the chaos of E3 day one we decided to abort our semi-tradition of a live stream video reaction to Nintendo's Digital Event, which was probably for the best considering the general online reaction. Having had a day to digest the results we've come into this video with the best possible intentions. We talk over many of...
"Now, I have nothing. I'm an empty shell"
You're never going to please everyone, and Nintendo's Digital Event at E3 this year may have left more people disappointed than the Big N would like, but you can be sure that you weren't as upset over the presentation as this young man. You can find the original post from NeoGAF here, but we think you'll...
Video LEGO Dimensions Opens a New Valve in E3 Trailer
Crossover craziness
LEGO Dimensions is likely to be one of the year's biggest releases, bringing the hugely profitable toy franchise into the toys-to-life market. Thankfully the Wii U will have a version, too, so Nintendo fans won't miss out on the new franchise and crippling debts it'll entail. We've already seen a little of LEGO Dimensions in the...

Though we're looking at a 2016 release in the West, Fire Emblem If is all set to arrive in Japan on 25th June, shaking up the standard formula with two separate releases - and a third storyline available as DLC. It'll likely have all of the strategy gameplay we can handle. With the...
News Tomonobu Itagaki's Devil's Third Will Lay Waste To Your Wii U On August 28th
New trailer and screens explode into view
It's been a while since we heard any solid information on Devil's Third, but with E3 fast approaching it seems like Valhalla Game Studios is making up for lost time.

It's arguably even more exciting...

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 Did You Know Gaming? Takes to the Skies With Star Fox
A nice warm-up for E3
There are some titles that we know - courtesy of release-windows, common sense or Nintendo confirmation - will be shown at E3; one of these is Star Fox for Wii U.

News LEGO Dimensions Vehicles Can be 'Rebuilt' With Three Variations
Actual toys coming to life?
LEGO Dimensions is certainly not what the creators of Skylanders and Disney Infinity want to see, and rather like Nintendo with amiibo it's been tempting to wonder why it took so long for the hugely popular brick-building franchise to step into the toys-to-life market. With some serious brand power in terms of...

Judd doesn't play fair

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.

Video Retro Music is Hard-Wired Into Your Brain Because of Science, Not Just Because It's Awesome
Jumping to the beat
When playing retro games it's common to admire the music, with a sense among some that chiptunes of the 8- and 16-bit era are a cut above modern soundtracks. There are still spectacular soundtracks in modern gaming, particularly those performed by live bands and orchestras, yet for some retro music can't be topped. There are...
