Another Wii U tech demo available at E3 2011 was “Shield Pose.” In this rhythm based game, you must block shots from enemy pirate ships in front of you, to your left, and to your right. You must time it correctly and also be in the right spot. As soon as I got my hands [...]

Battle Mii tech demo (Wii U) – Hands-On First Impressions
One of the Wii U tech demos at E3 2011 was called, “Battle Mii.” In it, two Mii players dressed in Samus costumes use the Wii Remote and Nunchuk to shoot down the third player. That player uses the new controller and screen to fly around the level in an attempt to shoot the opposing [...]
Doctor Lautrec & the Forgotten Knights (3DS) – Hands-On First Impressions
At first glance, it seems that Konami is simply copying Professor Layton with their upcoming game, “Doctor Lautrec & the Forgotten Knights.” The Nintendo 3DS title feels much like Layton, but it expands on it in many ways. After some hands-on time, I can say that it looks beautiful both in the cinematic cutscenes and [...]
Shinobi (3DS) – Hands-On First Impressions
Sega is bringing back Shinobi on the Nintendo 3DS. I was able to play this brand new adventure at E3 2011, and it feels and looks very good. While, it is not the best looking game that I have seen for the 3DS, but it looks nice. As opposed to many side-scrolling beat-em-ups, you must [...]
Heroes of Ruin (3DS) – Hands-On First Impressions
Square Enix is bringing a cooperative action-adventure RPG to Nintendo 3DS in early 2012 with “Heroes of Ruin.” The demo I played at E3 2011 was only single-player, but the final version will have at least two-player local and online co-op, with a possibility of four players. They are still working on that. In a [...]
Frogger 3D (3DS) – Hands-On First Impressions
Konami is bringing Frogger back for his 30th anniversary in “Frogger 3D” for Nintendo 3DS. While there was a Frogger game with the same name before, this is not it. This 3DS title has a much different feel than the original Frogger, but it is still the core game you have come to know and [...]
FIFA 12 (3DS) – Hands-On First Impressions
If you have read my game reviews before, you will notice that I enjoy a good sports video game. FIFA 12 is coming out on the Nintendo 3DS, and I got some hands-on time with it at E3 2011. While the game looks just all right in 2D mode, it really comes alive when you [...]
The Adventures of TinTin (3DS) – Hands-On First Impressions
While searching the E3 2011 show floor, I ran across a Nintendo 3DS game from Ubisoft called “Adventures of TinTin.” Quite honestly, I had no idea what this was about (sorry, fans; hold back the flames) or what I was doing, and that never changed during my ten minutes of play. Apparently, it follows the [...]
Power Rangers Samurai (Wii) – Hands-On First Impressions
On day two of E3 2011, I got some hands on with Power Rangers Samurai for Wii. In the demo version, I was only able to play with the red ranger. Control used both the Wii Remote and Nunchuk. No waggle was included in the controls, which was a major benefit. Usually these types of [...]
Wii U – Hands-On First Impressions
The Wii has had a good run. It is one of the best selling home video game consoles of all time. So, how you do you follow it? In Nintendo’s words, with the Wii U. Rumors had speculated for the last several months about what this “Project Cafe” would look like. Specifically, many wondered about [...]
Centipede Infestation (3DS) – Hands-On First Impressions
As a fan of the original Centipede for arcade and Atari consoles, I was excited to hear they were bringing Centipede Infestation to both Nintendo 3DS and Wii. I got some hands-on time with the 3DS version, and I have to admit I was not impressed. To start with, it is not like the original [...]
Reel Fishing Paradise 3D (3DS) – Hands-On First Impressions
Natsume is bringing Reel Fishing Paradise 3D to the Nintendo 3DS, and I got some hands-on with it. All in all, it looked nice, but the concept is very simple. Just cast and reel in, hopefully catching a fish. You can use the A button to cast, snag with a quick jerk on the system, [...]
Chase Mii (Wii U) – Hands-On First Impressions
In the Wii U demo called Catch Mii, one player utilizes the new controller to go hide as Mario. Meanwhile, the other players, as Miis, stand by with Wii Remotes turned sideways (NES-style). When the timer is up, the group must work together to find Mario. Meanwhile, that player is using their personal screen to [...]
New Super Mario Bros. Mii (Wii U) – Hands-On First Impressions
The New Super Mario Bros. games for Nintendo DS and Wii have been received very well. However, one thing you may have wanted to do is bring your Mii into the action. The New Super Mario Bros. Mii demo for Wii U did just that. It looked and played just like the other two games, [...]
Japanese Garden (Wii U) – Hands-On First Impressions
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. What they are calling the Japanese Garden looked amazing. The television screen displayed a beautiful fly-through of the garden. All the while, you can look around [...]
