REVIEWS GRiD 2 Review
Grid 2 surprised me. I was going through the motions, getting used to the cars and their handling, when suddenly something happened. I started having fun.

State of Decay Review
Undead Lab's zombie-infested action title has finally hit XBLA. Is it worth a few of your precious Microsoft Points, or should you whack it over the head with a two-by-four and continue on your merry way?

E3: PC or rather about the lack of it

E3 2013 has been very silent for me. There's tons of media, but most of it buzzes past my ears without them catching the important keyword that my ears are fine tuned to receive: "PC" or "Personal Computer". Microsoft, Sony, EA and Ubisoft have all shown their cards...

Nintendo Will Continue To Support The Wii

Posted on Friday, September 14 @ 08:56:47 Eastern by Keri_Honea


Nintendo is not going to adopt the philosophy of "out with the old, in with the new" when it comes to the Wii. Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime told Engadget in an a Q&A session at the Wii U event in New York that Big N will continue to support the Wii as well as push it into other regions.

To be more specific, since Nintendo has sold over 40 million units in the US, they want to continue to massage that opportunity with the Wii. And of course, that want to massage their success into other regions where it hasn't completely saturated the market, such as Canada, Latin America, and Eastern Europe.

So for at least awhile, we will see the Wii sit alongside the Wii U on store shelves. I'm sure that won't confuse people at all, especially since both use Wii Remotes. As long as they don't push the Wii as long as Sony has pushed the PS2, this could work out in their favor.

    They've already been extending the life of the Wii needlessly for the past 2 years.
