Abstract: I played a lot of games at this year's E3, but only one reminded me of those first few days of absolute wonder gamers had when they saw a pseudo-3D polygonal game for the first time. The game was Star Fox 64 3DS, and it's doing for stereoscopic 3D what th...

Abstract: Nintendo's putting the 3DS back on the right sales track by harnessing the power of remastered classics. Despite some critics crying out for legitimate sequels and fresh material, the numbers don't lie, as the recent entry of The Legend of Zelda: Ocari...
Abstract: The N64 is my least favorite console of all time, but I still feel the need to own one, mostly for Star Fox 64. It's easily one of my favorite games on the console, way ahead of Super Mario 64 and Ocarina of Time. That's partly because those two titl...
Abstract: With a significantly smaller line-up of games than its predecessors (both 8 and 16 bit, respectively), the number of essential games on the Nintendo 64 could be counted with two hands, and were mostly of the first party variety. While Mari...
