Nintendo can't explain Hardcore game sales!

You know there's a problem when even the creators of the wii system(Nintendo) can't explain the sluggish sales for third party hardcore games.

Its probably due to the fact that Nintendo wii is a haven for the people who download games illegally(Its legal if you already own the game and want to make a backup copy for yourself).Something called the "Twilight hack",has been created so Wii owners could do that exact thing!

While I don't condone their actions,there are a few benefits for having the Homebrew channel.If people used that channel more legit,there wouldn't be such an out cry on why Nintendo wii doesn't offer more hardcore games.

Videogame Movie being made

There goes the neighborhood! Another "game to movie" adaptation will be taking place,but this time its a game we will all enjoy watching on the big screen.

"Gears of wars" will be taking its chance at the box office hoping to prove it can be more than a just game(which I think is).Were starting to see more of this type of trend which I think is a really promising future for the gaming community.

Leave me comments,tell me what you think!

NHL 2K10 is a real contender this year

If you own NHL 2K9(for any system),then I'm sure you've been pretty disappointed with the effort 2k has put in creating a true "hockey experience".EA's NHL offering is the best hockey game simulation you'll find on any system,which has tons of amazing motion captured animation and replay value is through the roof!

I (like many others)believe 2K atleast deserves another shot at proving their take on hockey is worth purchasing.So why am I such a believer? Simple,2K has implemented a "ton" of new features to satisfy even the most novice hockey gamers.

The Nintendo wii edition of NHL 2K10 is the version that stood out the most because of its robust amount of options.Wiispeak will be available,along with "motionplus" and Online play.Motionplus alone is enough to have you craving for this game(which I am!).Also there's a "2k share" menu where players can share almost...anything! Thats a feature which I found pretty amazing and worthwhile.


Listen,if you ain't a fan a hockey(Or sports for that matter),you might not be willing to check this game out,but those that are,be prepared to hit the Ice this fall.

Is Nintendo wrong for trying to make everyone play games together?

By that I mean "Wii sports resort",its coming out on the Nintendo wii very soon(North America release date)and its already sold "600 000" copies in Japan alone! I for one am really looking forward to this game, while many others are like,"meh".
I enjoyed Wiisports and I'm guessing the game is quite similar in the terms of "pick up and play" mentality wiisport has.

Basically,I want to know how you all(anyone reading this blog)feel about Nintendo's option to include gamers and non-gamers alike.Is their philosophy flawed or is it simply the new way game developing companies should think?
