The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is one of those timeless games. No matter how many years roll on, this title will always be an absolute joy to play. It has stood the test of time, and that’s simply not going to change.

Monkey Ball mayhem bounces into stores for Nintendo Wii.

From bumper pods to swinging shenanigans, the monkeys break out in random activities in Step & Roll.

Not all Monster Hunter games make it outside of Japan. The Wii port of Monster Hunter G, for example, was passed over, as was Monster Hunter Frontier, the PC MMO upon which the upcoming Xbox 360 game is based. That's why it's noteworthy that Capcom's Keiji Inafune told Famitsu (according to Andriasang's translation) that "I feel Monster Hunter can definitely succeed overseas. There's a high possibility that MHF will kickstart that." For such a kickstart to take place, the game would have to be released overseas.

Unless, of course, it's already kickstarted by Monster Hunter Tri, coming out in North America and Europe this April, right?

This is Cyber Gadget’s Wii Code Freak cheat device. That guy on the box is the company mascot. This is the image that Cyber Gadget is using to promote the Wii Code Freak device. Yep…that’ll make me pick this thing up! Actaully, I guess it would catch my attention if I were passing [...]

Well…it’s a unique idea for a top 10 list, I guess! Obviously, if you aren’t into toilet humor, you might want to stay away from this feature.

Become a space pioneer on a cosmic scale with this exploration walkthrough.

Capcom originally planned to release its WiiWare ports of the Phoenix Wright games every other month. However, the publisher today announced that the court date for the second game, Justice For All, has been moved up a month, and will now be available on WiiWare in North America on February 15 (February 19 in Europe).

If you're playing through the series for the first time on WiiWare, this will be your first opportunity to meet Franziska von Karma, a brilliant young prosecutor who attacks every person she meets with a whip. Somehow, she missed out on the whole "assault = illegal" thing in law school.

The Marines come under attack by the Aliens in this single-player campaign gameplay.

This interface tutorial will have you traveling to distant worlds in no time.

Look, we were going to start off this post by making some ham-fisted joke about how the Just Cause 2 trailer posted above shares a moniker with our rippling biceps -- that is to say, "Freedom and Chaos." We're not going to do that, though. We're simply going to advise you to press that little play button (assuming you're of age, of course), and skip ahead to the 35 second mark. Don't even watch the beginning of the trailer -- just skip to that point, and watch it. We'll wait.

Holy crap, right? Okay, feel free to watch the rest of the video. There's some pretty great stuff in the remainder; but nothing quite as rad as an improvised personal space shuttle.

Remember the awesome DSiWare game from Nintendo that allowed you to take pictures of yourself to insert into a Street Fighter-like game? It seems that that title will actually get a chance outside of Japan, with the new name of ‘Photo Dojo’. We don’t have 100% confirmation of this being the new name [...]

Real human love? Not quite. But Lionhead did push things forward.

Deal with it, standard-definition television owners.

An Oliver Twist game? I wonder why EA decided to go for that one. Is there a film remake in the works that I don’t know of?

It's a well-known fact that anything signed by a founding member of The Who is immediately imbued with supernatural properties. Imagine, if you will, the raw, unbridled power a Rock Band guitar would gain if tenderly handled and Hancocked by frontman Roger Daltrey. We're pretty sure it would be incapable of missing notes at that point.

Such an artifact is now attainable, if you're willing to dish out enough cash to claim it. Daltrey and peripheral manufacturer Mad Catz have teamed up to auction off a pair of classy Wooden Fender Stratocaster guitar controllers for Xbox 360. The proceeds from the auctions will support the Teenage Cancer Trust, a U.K. charity which funds special oncology units in hospitals which "enable young people to be treated together, by an expert team, in the best possible environment for their age group." These auctions are a great cause -- with some extremely rocking benefits.

The auctions are up right now, and will run until next Thursday. Also, we can't think of an appropriate pun to end this post, but if we write about Roger Daltrey and don't link to the "YEEEEEEAAAHHH" button, we're contractually obligated to resign.

Mickey has had his fair share of video game adventures. I think for the most part, his outings have actually been pretty damn good. There were a few stellar platformers back in the day, but we really haven’t seen any quality content from the mouse in recent years. That’s alright though, because [...]
