I used to love nintendo, and still kinda do, but the last 5 or so years (ever since gamecube) nintendo hasnt done anything to impress me really....only dissapoint. I have a wii, its okay but i never play it, only games that I really loved for it was world of goo, mario galaxy, twilight princess (which is a gamecube game) Wii sports and wii fit plus are fun, but get old really really fast. Love that they came out with punch out...but I am sorry to say it I need more

I grew up with SNES, N64(never had a NES) and used to love most of the games they made..obviously not all of em...but lately its like nintendo is just living of their name.

Main piss offs:

1. no online co op - sure some games it isnt needed for, but whats the deal with the new platforming mario bros for the wii not supporting online co op? Im pretty pissed and there is no way i get it now. Get with the times nintendo and stop pretending that the internet doesnt exist. I realize the serves probably cant handle much, but mario bros co op doesnt seem like too much to handle...i mean i have mariokart wii and that usually works fine

2. Where are the classics? - sure they have mario games coming out, but wheres the new zelda, starfox, kirby etc. They seem to be more concentrating letting 3 parties make stupid games like petz and games for babyz (baby partyz)Support the fan base nintendo you are becoming a joke. side note - I am actually excited to play the new disney mickey game and cant wait for more details.

im done ranting for now...but cmon nintendo....lets stop concentrating on DS games and actually make a good game for your best selling console that sold more than any other system.

is anyone else kinda dissapointed in nintendo these days? where are the new AAA titles...and I know there is a new zelda but it probably wont be released in 2010...so lets get going nintendo!

I havent blogged it up in a while, so this is definetely due

Ive been playing a lot of battestations pacific these days, not much ofa WWII guy but damn this game is awesome! Its a follow up to battlestations midway, but I havent tried that game ever, and I actually heard its not that good...but this one is for sure. Anyway great game, check it out its a massively underrated game.

Now onto E3...

with the MS conference set to go about an hour from now I thought I would make some picks and hopefuls that we get some news about with E3. It also seems like this is more like E3 than the past couple years, everyone is excited and a much larger amount of industry peeps are allowed in.

Here is what I am hoping to see at E3:

Half life 2 : episode 3 revealed (probably not but i hope so!)

Beyond good and Evil 2

Assasins Creed 2

Bioshock 2

Dantes Inferno (looks awesome!)

...and othersI cant think of right now

anyway enjoy E3 everyone...oh and the stanley cup finals are going on, but my team is down 0 - 2 and its not looking good

but go pens go!

this is the best news I have heard in a long time regarding gaming....I mean I have been waiting for this announcement ever since xbla has been around. But FINALLY.........Turtles in Time, the classic beat em up for SNES is being remade and will be available sometime later this year (hopefully) for purchase. If you never played the original, stop whatever you are doing right now, go out and find a SNES console buy it and a copy of Turtles in Time (good luck on that hunt)

so they are making a few updates to the graphics, but i hope they keep the gameplay similar and dont ruin it

heres a link so everyone doesnt think im making this up

Happy Friday everyone, enjoy the weekend

after I watched that clip i was pissed off...and I dont usually get pissed off that easily (except for really frustratingly hard levels in video games)

But its Fox News showing their intelligence yet again...I cant believe this BS.....this is in the wake of a week where somewhere around 10 Canadian soliders got killed in Afganistan in the war effort. Now personally I believe this whole war mission is pointless and there is no way to suceed in afghan (as history has proved) but these guys seem to think that the Americans are 100x better than everyone else (not the first time that has happened). Now I realize that Fox News is not the most creditable source of news, but this is ridiculous. I know 6 year olds who have more intelligent conversations and debatesthan this.

now I know this will be read by U.S citizens, and Ive got nothing against you guys (unless you in the same mindset)but can you guysreally even think why these douche bags would say stuff like this? Its not like U.S has tons of countries on their side at this point, so I dont know why they are getting allies pissed at them.

the u.s image has really taken a beating lately....i wonder what barack would say about this one

whats up everyone!

Im sure a lot of you out there never had snow this winter, but living in Canada its a big part of the winter. Now it starting toget real nice out and all the snow is melting or has melted...its a great changeas you can actually go outside without wearing a huge winter jacket...but its also a sad time as the snowboard season is ending

This makes me want to go outside more, I almost feel as if I was hibernating this winter with all the video games Ive been playing! Soon I will have to go out and skateboard a bit, as I am feeling the urge to do it, and get rid of the rust that Ive accumulated with all the time off my board this winter.

Anyway Ive been playing Stoked lately, that game is a ton of fun, but the last pro challenge to beat travis rice is almost impossible! So ive just been having fun flying the helicopters around and exploring the mountains.

well thats it for me today...i have a few pics from snowboarding Ill put up from wednesday, you can see all the snow melting in some of the pics and I made good use of the grass gap in one of the pics!

n e way hope everyone is doing good...and hopefully some more ppl will comment on my blogs...i only got 6 comments last time! I guess Ill have to start doing more interesting blogs hahaha
