A portion of a Eurogamer review… Oboromuramasa is shallow, rather simple and relatively short-lived, but nonetheless wonderful in its way. As a piece of visual videogame art it’s at the very peak of the medium’s achievements, along with Okami and Odin Sphere, and it’s crafted with such obvious, loving care and attention to detail that it’s [...]

“100 percent of my efforts and focus are on finding a solution to keep the studio going forward, making it viable and securing jobs in the team. It may sound like a football cliché but this studio is too good a team to have to shut down – it would be a travesty. [...]

Uncover the secret of immortality in this tale of light and darkness.

There is no other character like Mario, and there never will be. There have been characters that borrow some of Mario’s ideas and antics, but I can’t think of a single game character that comes anywhere near the quality that Mario brings with his major franchise outings. When it comes due to the [...]

“We have argued consistently that any games classification system needs to put child protection at its heart. It must involve consultation with the British public, command their trust, and reflect their sensibilities. It must take account of tone and context and be carried out by skilled and knowledgeable examiners. It needs to involve the provision [...]

“Finally… Really… Truly… a live 24-hour broadcast has been decided.” - Shinya Arino, star of Game Center CX We would get to check out this awesome bit of gaming fun if North America would just embrace Retro Game Challenge. Too bad no one in the states seems to be interested in the game, and Europe [...]

“The next generation is going to be so powerful that playing a game is going to be the equivalent of playing a CGI movie today. …For us, the current machines are very powerful and we can do high quality work. I’d like to stay with this generation as long as possible, but my customers [...]

Nintendo paved the way for motion controls. Both Sony and Microsoft have seen how a controller change can revolutionize the entire industry. There are more gamers than ever before, and all types of new genres to take advantage of. It was no surprise to see both companies showing off their ideas for motion control [...]

Reader Vash grabbed his copy of Let’s Tap from his local GameStop. Upon grabbing the game, the store clerk said that Vash was lucky. The copy he was taking home was the one and only copy the store received. Granted, each store gets different amounts of shipments…but a shipment of one copy seems awfully [...]

What sets a man apart from beasts?

Seriously, how can you watch that and not get a smile on your face? Playing this game at E3 was the worst idea ever. It’s going to make the wait until launch that much harder. It’s not better to have loved and lost! Article here

In my opinion, this is Kirby’s best game by far. It also really pushed the limits of what the NES could do. Too bad the title came out so close to the death of the NES. I sure hope there are many Wii owners that picked this one up on the VC. Article [...]

Japanese pro wrestler Mitsuharu Misawa is no longer with us. He passed away due to an in-ring accident. We here at GoNintendo are big fans of wrestling, and I’m actually very familiar with Mr. Misawa. I am sorry to see him go, and to have only just now learned of his love [...]
