Zelda Skyward Sword Opening

quartyz — Sat, 01 Oct 2011 16:40:20 +0000

Nintendo has recently posted the Opening to the upcoming Wii game The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, which will be releasing in later this year in November.

This will be a prequel to The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time and I’m not sure whether the usage of Wii MotionPlus will be a hit to fans of the Zelda series.

It will be sold as both a bundle with a golden Wii Remote Plus and as a standalone game including a CD containing orchestrated tracks of iconic music from the franchise.

This Dragon Quest X Will Cost You

zenical — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 00:24:20 +0000

Recent speculations that the upcoming Dragon Quest X will require a subscription fee. That has been confirmed by Square Enix via the Q&A page.

DQX will require an online connection to get beyond the first few hours of play. The latest question at the Q&A asks if the game will have separate charges outside of the initial purchase price. The answer: the game is planned to require separate payments in order to play online.

No further confirmation on how the online gameplay will work.

Dragon Quest X is due for release on the platform Wii and Wii U.

Nintendo has formally announced a Wii successor which will be announced at E3gaming expo in June. The system will be out in 2012.

No name was given for the new Wii. It is known as the Wii successor now. So will there be a new name for the new Wii? We will know soon!

If You Hate Plastic Stands For Your PS3 And Wii, How About Wooden Ones?

zenical — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 11:00:40 +0000

You buy those plastic stands(from Sony or Nintendo) for your consoles, wanting to save up the space, especially for the PS3 since it occupies quite a bit of space, unlike the Wii. Gameteach is now offering you another option – wood stands!

For the Wii,

Now for the PS3..

These stands are part of Gametech’s Mokudigi(Wood Digital) series. The series have other stands for your DS, iPhone, etc. Full lineup here. It’s 8,400 yen for the Wii stand and 3,980 yen for the PS3 stand.

I don’t think I’ll pay that much just for a stand, then again it depends what type of wood is used for the production of the stand. Hard wood is the way to go.

Top Ten “Crap Games of the Retail Shop”

zenical — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 10:18:01 +0000

So what games have you bought this year? One game shop in Japan has listed the top ten letdowns of 2009. The retailer isn’t talking about the buggiest or worst titles, but rather, the games that didn’t do as expected.

Here is the list:

10. Persona
Retail expectations were high, but the game got off to a slow start and never fully recovered.

9. Tamagotchi no Narikiri Channel
The title also was thought to have brisk sales, but apparently, they’ve been horrible.

8. Dragon Ball Tenkaichi Daibouken
Dragon Ball just doesn’t folks excited anymore, it seems.

7. PSP Shin Sangoku Musou 5SP (Dynasty Warriors)
“This is the beginning of the end for the Musou mythos LOL”

6. Gran Turismo PSP
Since it is a marquee Sony title, expectations were high, but the game ended up being sold at a loss.

5. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (Wii)
Sales are moving exceedingly slow.

4. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games (DS)
In particular, the DS version is not doing well — the retailer is praying for strong end of year sales.

3. Taiko no Tatsujin Wii: Dodon to Nidaime
Don’t give up on this game just yet, but currently it is not doing so hot. Inventory is not moving and is taking up lots of space.

2. Monster Hunter 3 (Standard Edition)
As with some of the other titles, expectations were high. But Capcom’s “fraud-like shipping methods” meant that the game was sold in the red and to make a profit, retailers had to sell something like 50 copies of the game to make a mere US$45. “It got ridiculous!”

1. Blood of Bahamut (DS)
“This game was gobbled up by Dragon Quest.” The retail also calls Square Enix’s promotion “weak” as well and just got lost in the shuffle. Way lost.

I heard of Persona, Dynasty Warriors, Gran Turismo and Monster Hunter 3. Sadly MH3 didn’t make its way to the PS3, for I know I would definitely purchase the game! XD. Any games on the list that you know? Because I really have no idea what the other games are about o.o.

So what are the top ten crap games of 2009 on your list that you won’t purchase?

So Many Gundam Games To Play This December..

zenical — Sun, 06 Dec 2009 02:55:18 +0000

I’m sure most of you play games, and if you’re a big fan of the Gundam series, you would have played or heard of at least 1 gundam game! To mark the 30th anniversary of Gundam, a series of 11 titles at budget pricing will be released in Japan on December 17. If you haven’t played any of the games before, you definitely won’t have enough time to complete all of the 11 games here ^^”. Indeed, so many Gundam games, so little time!

The list of games are:

PSP
Mobile Suit Gundam: Giren no Yabou Axis no Kyoui V
Gundam Battle Universe
Mobile Suit Gundam: SEED Rengou vs. Z.A.F.T. PORTABLE

PS3
Gundam Musou 2

Xbox 360
Gundam Musou 2

Wii
Mobile Suit Gundam: MS Sensen 0079

PS2
Gundam Musou 2
Mobile Suit Gundam: Giren no Yabou Axis no Kyoui V
SD Gundam G Generation Spirits
Mobile Suit Gundam 00 Gundam Masters
Mobile Suit Gundam: SEED Rengou vs. Z.A.F.T. II PLUS

So out of the games listed here, which ones have you played before? For me its 5 games! Love Gundam games! Just hope that they will bring more Gundam games to the PS3 platform, and have online play with friends. It would be so cool. Just imagine having a big war and fighting with your comrades on the battlefield!

Play Wii Fit With a Meido

zenical — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 16:01:11 +0000

Do you hate playing games alone? In fact, do you play your Wii alone? Now you can try out the Wii Fit with a Meido at Refresh Club at Akihabara!

While Refresh Club is 2,600 yen for a thirty minute course and 4,600 yen for an hour, there is a trial course that’s only 1,500 yen. But please note: Club Refresh has the right to refuse service of customers who have been drinking alcohol, have athlete’s foot or are pregnant. Not sure if pregnant ladies are a huge market, but those are the rules and rules are rules.

Sounds interesting, but paying someone to play a game with you is lol. Haha. Given the chance would you give this a go?
