Five years of consumerism is worth 680 coins, Nintendo? Really?
OK, so here is the list of the items I’ve gone through the process of registering. This reflects every game system, and most revisions of such, that Nintendo has released since 2000. There’s also a stack of Gamecube, GBA, and Nintendo DS games.

Castlevania Judgment is the first game in the long-running Castlevania franchise for Nintendo Wii. Rather than being an action adventure game like the other games in the series, Judgment is something different. It’s a 3D fighter with weapons, something like a mixture of SoulCalibur and...

Watchin’ paint dry at Club Nintendo
Some of the items in the program are nice. There’s a compilation of Game & Watch games for Nintendo DS, that’s 800 club points. There are DS cases, Wii Remote holders, all kinds of neat things, all of which bear the slick Mario hat logo of Club Nintendo.

Read-a-long with Nintendo Power (#229, June 2008)
Take a look at that cover. Wow. Did anybody else think that the hypnotically awful Revolution X would get a sequel? What a surprise! Talk about mining the archives; Revolution X came out fourteen years ago! That’s longer than the wait between Super Metroid and Metroid Prime, and Nintendo is...

HAWT First4Figures Metroid Prime 2 Gunship is 250 bucks.
I love Metroid, and it's no overstatement for me to say that this is possibly the coolest toy I've ever seen: a model of Samus Aran's gunship from Metroid Prime 2. The windshield and engines light up, too. How much for this sexy piece of Metroid kit? Why, only $250.

Great Metroid medley from Video Games Live.
This smile-inducing compilation of Metroid tunes plays out like a quick trip through Super Metroid with an orchestra at your back. I mean, that game sounded great on a Super NES, this is what it would have sounded like in person. ...

Interview: Chris Stockman, Blazing Lizard.
SM: Mention is made of "an action-adventure title" on the PS1 as well. All I came up with matching that description was Animorphs: Shattered Reality. SM: What are your thoughts on the Wii as a platform? Do you think it has the hardware capabilities to stay relevant with the more serious gamin...
