Here’s a mash up that we should have seen coming. Take one dose of Star Wars. Take one dose of 8-bit era music. Mash. There result is Star Wars as it might have sounded if it was a Nintendo game. Hats off to Proof of Work who kept this up for more than 6 minutes. […]
Nintendo NES controller bra will be clean!
Etsy merchant SceeneShoes will have a success on their hands with this Nintendo branded item. See; I’ve gone and said “hands” already. It’s a Nintendo NES controller bra. I’m sure I dreamt about such a thing as a young teenager! Now, an interesting note appears on the seller page for this bra. It says; When […]
Will social games save the Wii U?
I don’t have a blu-ray player; I have a PlayStation 3. I don’t yet have a tablet. I wonder if in a year’s time I’ll be able to say; “I don’t have a tablet. I have a Wii U”? So far the Wii U has generated a lot of blog chat but it’s not impressed […]
E3: Nintendo announces the Wii U
Project Cafe, Nintendo’s next generation console, has a name – It’s the Wii U. My hopes are dashed. The controller will not be a portable console and it will not have location based gaming.

New Zelda song is old Zelda song… just played backwards satanic style
There was a time when the conservative right objected to rock music. A common claim was that if a certain track was played backwards it would contain satanic messages. Once or twice this was true. What happens if we apply this test to The Legend of Zelda’s Skyward Sword Theme? I’ll tell you what; you’ll […]
Super Mario proposal
Warning – there are loud squees in this video. I think we can forgive these particular high pitch tones because of the situation. Here’s the scene; the girlfriend is out – so the boyfriend designs a Super Mario room. This room includes a “floating” box. In that box there’s a wedding ring. Oh yes; this […]
Project Cafe: Wii 2 to out power PS3 and have camera controller
The rumours that Nintendo will launch a new console next year are burning hot. Kotaku have all but confirmed it. We’re expecting the news at E3 – that’s June 7 – although Nintendo often old a press conference the day before. In fact, there’s less debate about whether the Wii 2 is on the way […]
