Review – Super Mario 3D Land

Review – Super Mario 3D Land

It only took six months but Nintendo finally released their first original must-have 3DS game. Super Mario 3D Land is another solid entry into the Super Mario Bros. series. It fits into a space right between New Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario Galaxy. Super Mario 3D Land is the perfect mix between old and new to keep things familiar without feeling stale.

Nintendo “Giving” Away Games as Club Nintendo Rewards

Do you have more Club Nintendo Rewards points than you know what to do with? Loaded up on posters, folders, and cards? Well then Club Nintendo has the cure. You can now download Virtual Console and eShop games for the Wii and 3DS.

The games available at this time are Super Mario Kart (Wii),  Fluidity (Wii),  Xevious (3DS), and Mario vs.  Donkey Kong: Minis March Again (3DS).  At 100-150 Club Nintendo coins each,  these games are a steal. Normally they sell for $5. 99 to $12 each so get them while you can.  They will be removed from Club Nintendo Rewards on January 10th.

Review: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

Review: The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time

As far back as I can remember, I’ve been playing Zelda games. Arguably one of my favorite gaming series, I must have spent ages traveling the fields of Hyrule and saving the day once again from the evil Ganon. The crème de la crème of those games in my opinion (and I’m not alone) has always been Ocarina of Time. There was just something inherently fantastic about the 3D environments and the dark way everything was presented. When I heard that Nintendo was re-releasing Ocarina of Time for the 3DS I was equally excited and hesitant. Always a fan favorite, OoT has been released several times over and has been played to death a million times by those who really want it on every system.

Here’s a sample of some of the action you can expect on the 3DS.

Man the 3DS has some killer graphics.
