I’ll keep this short, because I’m short on time. This week’s video demo is of a great Super Nintendo game called Axelay. The basics are, shooter, interesting scrolling effect, can be pretty hard, and very fun. Follow the jump to check out the movie.

January 28, 2008 10:53 am
Again Nintendo disappoints with only one game being released this week, but they do make up for it a little by releasing another Nintendo 64 game. The newly released game this week is: 1080° Snowboarding for the N64, enjoy!
1080° Snowboarding
January 28, 2008 10:45 am
Hit the slopes for some serious shredding in one of the first truly realistic snowboarding games ever created! Start in the lodge and select from five characters, each with his/her own particular attributes and special tricks. Then take a look at the wide assortment of available boards and choose one that best suits your rider and style. Once you’ve got the gear, six different modes of play, including Match Race, Trick Attack, and 2-Player Versus, await. Pick a course and get ready to experience a sensation of speed that’ll make you forget all about the cold—but it might just send a shiver down your spine. Throw in hidden characters and boards, varying weather and snow conditions, multiple paths through each course, and a variety of tricks to master—topped off with rock-solid play control—and you’ve got a recipe for winter fun that you can enjoy any time of the year. It’s all the fun and excitement of the sport, without the bruises and frostbite!

Video Demo: Kirby’s Adventure
January 24, 2008 8:36 pm
Well, today is still Thursday, so I’m not too late with this week’s video demo. This week I cover Kirby’s Adventure on the virtual console. I haven’t ever played this game, I feel like I should have by now, but it turned out to be quite fun. The big thing about this game, if you don’t know already, is that when you swallow an enemy you gain their special ability. Enough chit-chat and on with the video…
Virtual Console Releases For January 21 2008
January 21, 2008 10:08 am
It’s a new week and sadly Nintendo has only released two new games for the virtual console. The newly released games are: Adventures Of Lolo 2 for the Nintendo and Super Street Fighter II: The New Challengers for the Super Nintendo.
Adventures of Lolo 2
January 21, 2008 9:01 am
Lolo and Lala are back in this sequel to the popular puzzle game THE ADVENTURES OF LOLO. On their return from the Haunted Castle, the Great Devil kidnaps Lala and challenges Lolo to rescue her again. Now he must take on the challenge of the Great Devil’s Tower and Castle mazes. Fortunately, Lala was able to analyze each of the mazes as she was taken to the tower and left clues in the Jewel Boxes in each room. Each Jewel that Lolo collects contains information that will help him in the next room. In order to succeed, he’ll also have to push tiles, pick up Heart Framers, temporarily turn enemies into Eggs with his Magic Shots and ward off enemy attacks by moving Emerald Framers. With your help, Lolo and Lala will work together to escape the Great Devil’s clutches and defeat him.

Virtual Console Releases For January 14 2008
January 14, 2008 9:40 am
It’s Monday again and another two games have been released on the Nintendo Wii virtual console. The two newest games are: Pac-Attack for the Super Nintendo and Riot Zone for the TurboGrafx-16 CD-ROM.
Pac-Attack
January 14, 2008 9:35 am
Pac-Man makes a rare appearance outside of a maze environment in Pac-Attack, a fun and quirky puzzle game. This unique entry in the genre puts its own twist on established conventions and adds one of gaming’s most iconic characters to the mix. The goal is simple: Keep your screen clear of falling blocks and ghosts by lining up blocks horizontally, causing them to disappear. Clearing the ghosts, though, requires the help of a hungry Pac-Man (who just happens to swing by every so often for a snack). It’s up to you to get all of the ghosts lined up for him, because Pac-Man will keep eating them until he is stopped by a block or he runs out of ghosts. In addition, his range of movement on the playing field is limited to horizontal or downward—thus adding further strategy. There are three game modes to choose from: 1 Player Normal, 2 Player VS., and the challenging 1 Player Puzzle. Feel like gobbling up some ghosts?
