A very good week for American gamers... Bejeweled, to me, is overrated, but I still enjoyed it and may pick up the second. Shadow of the Ninja looks pretty interesting, too. DSiWare, not so much. The most interesting-sounding DSiWare game this week is A Kappa's Trail, and I have a feeling that it will be crap.
Something's wrong with my computer, therefore I can't listen to the podcast. But from the above comments, I can tell it's a shame to have to skip out on this one.
As much as I'd love to believe this, it's a rumor. (Oops, I'm sorry, I suppose that's "rumour" because this is a European-originated website.) Therefore, it is most likely bull ****. EDIT: Oh, come on... "bull crap" is not a curse word. Seriously.
I came here expecting a low score (it is, after all, a licensed game, most of which are garbage), but wow. I don't care for Ben 10, but I may pick this up sometime.
(oh yes, the banner is from the old series. As in when Ben had more of a personality.)
If there's anything I love to complain about, it's the slight shift to the casual demographic this generation. It's refreshing to be reminded that Nintendo hasn't left their core fanbase.
"Hopefully Sega will actually revive good, forgotten series for the 3DS like Ristar, Vectorman, Shining Force, and Streets of Rage along with new IPs instead of just making more crappy games featuring a certain mascot that needed to be put down ages ago."
OH GOD THIS. Seriously SEGA, enough with the Sonic. Sure, I won't mind a couple of 3D Sonics on the 3DS (Good 3d Sonics), but can we please do something for the forgotten series? You know, the ones that were BETTER than Sonic?
kevohki, as much as you and I both would love to see this happen, I doubt it would. Other SEGA franchises just are not recognizable to those stupid kids that SEGA keeps marketing to, ruining the fun for the rest of us.

Re: Review: PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure (Wii)
Ouch. I was expecting this to at least be OK. Hell, I was even thinking about picking it up.
Re: Nintendo Download: 22nd & 23rd June 2010 (Japan)
Japan is having a WiiWare drought, while we have a VC drought. I'll gladly trade droughts, considering that WiiWare is ridden with more crap than VC.
Re: E3 2010: Donkey Kong Country Returns This Fall
Oh yes.
Re: E3 2010: Rumour: 3DS May Allow Game Installs
If only this were possible yet...
Re: Shantae is Nearly Finished but Not Submitted

Re: Rumour: Retro Bringing Back Donkey Kong
'Bout freaking time. They haven't made a good DK game since DK64. Now with Retro doing the next game, I can't wait to see how this will turn out.
Re: More Pokemon Black & White Monsters Revealed
The bird's design is unoriginal: it's just Starly with different colors. But I love the electric zebra.
On another note, the new Pokémon professor is HOT.

Ain't that the truth.

Re: Pokémon Black & White
I am psyched. (Which is rare... I never get psyched.)

Re: Dementium: The Ward
Why does it have to be M-rated. Why can't I be older. Whyyyyyyyyyy.
chill out, plz -- TBD
Re: Review: Dementium II (DS)
Never heard of Dementium, though I might or might not give this game a try...
Re: Review: Robocalypse: Beaver Defense (WiiWare)
Nice tagline.
Anyway, I may actually consider buying this, though I would put it pretty low on my priorities.

Re: Review: Hero of Sparta (DSiWare)
Gameloft doesn't suck THAT bad. Remember Asphalt 4: Elite Racing?
Re: Review: X-Scape (DSiWare)
Q Games strikes again. Well done.
Re: Review: Wild Guns (Virtual Console / Super Nintendo)
An amazing game, as expected. Definitely overlooked at the time of its release.
Buy it if you haven't already.
Re: X-Scape
lies in wait for review
Re: Review: Just Sing! National Anthems (DSiWare)
No.
Re: Review: Telegraph Sudoku & Kakuro (DSiWare)
I haven't gotten a DSiWare Sudoku yet, but I may actually buy this...
Re: Review: Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Wii)
Better than the prequel, from what I hear. Nice job Nintendo.
...Now to actually buy and play this... FILL YOU STUPID WALLET

Re: Nintendo Download: 31st May 2010 (North America)
X-Scape looks good too. I will lie in wait for the review...
Re: Nintendo Download: 31st May 2010 (North America)
OH GOD NO NOT BEN 10.
Wild Guns looks interesting...
