Over the past few months, there’s been endless speculation over whether or not Konami was making a Castlevania game for Wii. In one of the screenshots for the upcoming Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia for the Nintendo DS, an option simply labelled as ‘Wii’ was shown in the game menu, leading many to believe that a Wii game was in the works – including some form of DS communication.

Well, in the same Nintendo Power that contains the Mega Man 9 – WiiWare exclusive, Castlevania Judgement is revealed to be coming – in the form of a 3D fighter.

Don’t you love that feeling you get when good yet totally unexpected things just hit you from out of nowhere? Like today for example, I was just minding my own business, surfing the ‘net, when suddenly, I was smacked in the face by Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games.

15 years ago, the idea of Mario and Sonic being in the same game together was unthinkable. People used to argue for hours on end over which was better: Nintendo or Sega? Mario or Sonic? Heck, wars have been started over lesser disagreements. (more…)

Crazy-talk: The REAL Hero of Star Wars

Chewbacca and LeiaRecently, I’ve been speaking to a friend of mine about the Star Wars saga. My friend could be considered a Star Wars novice, especially when it comes to the Prequel Trilogy, so having to explain certain things to her brought me back to something I’d often reflected on in the past. Just who is the hero of the Star Wars films?

Luke Skywalker, some might answer. The more Star Wars savvy out there will surely say “Anakin Skywalker, after all, he killed the Emperor and brought the Force back into balance”, presumably while pushing up their glasses and swishing their Hasbro Lightsabers in the air. “Even Lucas said so!”

Well you’re wrong. All of you. Even you, George, and you don’t even know it… (more…)
