The next Nintendo home console, called Wii U, will feature full high definition graphics. One tech demo that I got some hands-on with really showed off that graphical power.

Luigi’s Mansion 2 (3DS) – Hands-On First Impressions
Many have been speculating about a follow-up to the original Luigi’s Mansion for Nintendo GameCube. Even though, it was still a surprise to hear the Luigi’s Mansion 2 will hit the Nintendo 3DS.

Star Fox 64 3D – Hands-On First Impressions

Super Mario 3DS – Hands-On First Impressions
We all knew that Mario would eventually hit the Nintendo 3DS, but we did not know exactly how it would first happen. At last year’s E3, we were teased with a logo, which featured a tail. Well, the tail is back in the form of the Tanooki suit from Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES). In [...]

Animal Crossing 3DS E3 Trailer
This new version of Animal Crossing includes brand new features such as being able to swim, the ability to choose where items go on the wall of the player’s house and improved graphics. Personally, I do not like the look of the character. It was better when they were short and small. Too tall. Share
