  • Abstract:  Wii has been lacking in "must have" titles for a while now, with shoddy, 3rd-party games about Barbie on horseback or 101-ways-to-waggle-your-Wii-mote dominating its new release list for months - nay, years. True to form, Nintendo puts out its own Wii ...

  • Abstract:  The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword is a pretty fantastic game. That might not come as much of a surprise, as we’ve all grown used to a particular level of quality in regards to console Zelda titles, but as a long time Zelda fan that has started to grow...
