Ever felt like driving to the Golden Gate Bridge, Mount Rushmore and the White House in one day? Well then, gear up to put your racing skills to the test in a frantic trip across the United States, following a route that you won’t find on any map. Whether it’s the rolling hills of Appalachia, the flowing cornfields of Iowa or the crowded tunnels below Chicago, you’ll find yourself too focused on the intense racing action to worry about the scenery. Get started by picking from a garage full of cars to find the one that best suits your style—if you’re good enough, you’ll even find a few hidden ones to round out your selection. Then choose one of three different playing perspectives and get ready to hang on tight. With five difficulty levels, the ability to remove traffic or other racers, and two- player simultaneous racing, it’s enough to make you forget all about finding that next rest stop. Just watch out for the cows, OK?

Wonder Boy

March 31, 2008 7:20 am

As Tom-Tom the Wonder Boy, it’s up to you to rescue your girlfriend Tanya from the vile clutches of the monster that has kidnapped her. To do so, you must navigate a series of worlds in a race against time to reach your goal. Along the way, you’ll battle foes and collect fruit that will add to the amount of time you have to complete your mission. You can also receive helpful power-ups from various eggs, but make sure to avoid the bad eggs and poisonous mushrooms that sap your precious vitality. Find the magic doll in each level to open up hidden areas, and make it to the very end of your journey to rescue your one true love.

Video Demo: Kid Icarus

March 27, 2008 12:17 pm

What a year so far for the virtual console, I mean seriously it has been rather disappointing so far and from comments on this site alone I don’t think I’m the only one to feel this way. So because of this slump in the virtual console arena I’m guessing everyone is enjoying Super Smash Bros: Brawl, or just replaying some of the old classics like this week’s featured video demo, Kid Icarus on the Nintendo. There isn’t a whole lot to say about the game that the video doesn’t convey, but if you have not played the game before, be prepared for a very tough game. With that said, I urge you to follow the jump and check out this week’s virtual console video demo!

Eight different teams representing various nations are vying to become the Powerball champions, and you control one of the eight in your quest for the championship. A hybrid of games like rugby and football, Powerball is played on a 100-yard field. Try to score by either carrying the ball into your opponent’s end zone or kicking it into your opponent’s net for points. This one- or two-player game offers both exhibition and league play. Jump into a game of Powerball and try a brand new sport.

Looks like another Thursday, so that must mean that I have another virtual console video demo ready right? Well, if you said yes, then you would be quite correct. This week I decided on Super Mario 64 for the Nintendo 64, of course, to play on the virtual console. If you haven’t played it before you should feel ashamed of yourself! But in all seriousness check out this week’s video demo after the jump!
