25 10 2007

Today King Dedede was announced for Brawl.  He actually looks pretty cool.

He’s a heavy character, like DK and Bowser.

This is his grand entrance…

Of course, he has his mallet o’ doom.

That must really stink for Bowser.

And, the first Kirby hat has been released, too.

This game is really turning out to be awesome.



Fire Emblem Hacks Are Neat…

24 10 2007

I’ve recently been playing the Fire Emblem games for GBA (Best ones, in my opinion) like crazy, and I’ve been looking through YouTube for hacks.

Here are some of my favorites:

Eliwood as a General looks awesome.

I just like this one.

And…

THE PEAR SAYS: “Bork, bork, bork!”.

That last one is awesome.



Awesome videos

My friend showed me this one yesterday

TACO TOOOOOOOOOWN!!

Andy Samburg is a genius. Seriously.

Oh, and who saw the Smash Update today?

This is a crazy level! PictoChat is a stage?! I never thought it would be possible for Sonic, Solid Snake, and Mario to fight upon a PictoChat-themed level!

Wow, SSBB is gonna be the best game of next year!



Cool Miis!

Has a ton of Miis for you to look at. Here are some of my favorites:

1192138387166.jpg  <- KIRBY!

1191818298861.jpg  And… Eggman… I think…

I’ve never tried to make any character Miis before! I think they’re really cool.



This is madness! Madness?!

16 10 2007

THIS IS SPARTAAAAAA!

Quite possibly the most popular movie scene ever. And one of the most mind-numbingly stupid (yet funny) ones, too.

I don’t think it gets much better than that.

Oh, and also today on the Smash Bros. Site, they announced that the Home Run Contest is back…

“Whoo-Hoo” was what I was thinking when I first saw the update, but after reading it, I think it looks really cool now!

The rules are the same: Beat up the sandbog until he has enough damage, then whack him with the bat

But…

Now there’s a shield covering the “base”, so if you use light attacks, you can’t push it off the stage!

Now, two players can work together and whack the Sandbag!

Plus, there’s Wi-Fi for it, too!



New Pork City

15 10 2007

A new stage was announced today on the Super Smash Bros. Website. It’s New Pork City from Mother 3.

It’s a huge stage, and it scrolls like Rainbow Cruise from Melee.

Looks awesome, right?
On closer inspection, the buildings are flat!

stage14_071015b-l.jpg

Pretty neat, huh?
Also, there’s a moster here…

THE ULTIMATE CHIMERA!

You really don’t wanna be in it’s path; it will K.O. you in one blow!

stage14_071015e-l.jpg

Wow, he’s pretty tough!

I think this is my second favorite stage, right after the WarioWare stage.



WARNING! CHALLENGER APPROACHING!

10 10 2007

I never thought this would happen. This update had less of a chance to get in than Lucas did, but it still happened…

SONIC IN BRAWL!

Crazy, right? Sonic the Hedgehog is in Brawl.

I promise this is not a hoax, it’s on the main page of the Super Smash Bros. DOJO!! website.

I think he looks like a great character. His attacks look really cool, and best of all…

THEY GOT HIM A GOOD VOICE ACTOR.

Yeah, you never thought he could have a good voice actor, but he sounds really good in this game.

Well, that’s my exciting news for the day… Or at least for this morning… Whatever.



First 3 Neo-Geo games released on the Wii’s Virtual Console…

9 10 2007

And, for reasons far beyond my knowledge, they’re nothing special…

And they all have to do with punching stuff…

Huh, it’s amazing how the titles look oh-so similar…

Meh, I’m glad they added Neo-Geo games to the VC, but could they have at least released Blue’s Journey or Aero Fighters 3? Those are some great Neo-Geo games.

Oh, and those games will run you six bucks a pop, so it’s not crazy expensive…



My thoughts on The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass… (Spoiler Free!)

8 10 2007

phantcover1.jpg

Well, I actually got this game and I must say, this is probably my favorite game for the DS that’s out right now!

Here’s my little mini-review:

Gamplay: 9/10

I absolutely LOVE this game. Although I never liked the boat-sailing aspect of Wind Waker, I love it in this game. The sea is a little smaller, for one thing, so it’s not as overwhelming. You can also control the boat’s route with the Touch Screen. The dungeons are a blast to play, too. Challenging puzzles, great use of the DS’ functions, and neat enemies make the dungeons really cool.

Controls: 10/10

Sure, they may be a little awkward at first, but after you get used to them, I think this game may have to best controls of any Zelda game. There’s some fun weapons that I could go into detail with, but this is meant to be spoiler free, so I’ll leave it there.

Graphics: 9/10

Could be the best graphics of any DS game out right now. Although in an earlier post, I claimed I didn’t like how big Link’s eyes are, they’re not too huge, and it matches the style of the game. In screenshots, the graphics might look jaggy, but they’re really spectacular in the game.

Length: ??/10

I’ve yet to beat it, so I’m not too sure.

Overall: 9/10!

A must-have for the DS. Pick it up today!



Lucas from the Japanese-only game Mother 3 is in Super Smash Bros. Brawl!

1 10 2007

This is probably my favorite Smash Update. Lucas from Mother 3 is finally announced for Brawl! I never thought this would happen, but I really wanted it to.

He uses PK  moves like Ness, but they look like they aren’t the same moves.

I, for one, really like how they turned Lucas to 3-d. I think he looks better than ever!

I hope more Mother-themed characters will be in Brawl.
