Planning on asking for a Wii this year? Well once again, I wouldn’t be too surprised if Santa wasn’t able to get his hands on the console. Nintendo’s Reggie Fils-Aime announced that their production of the Wii has gone up 33% from last year, up to 2.4 million consoles being produced each...
I picked up Mega Man 9 shortly after it became available for the Wii, and was amazed at how much fun a 15-year-old game was. Sure, Capcom just made this one, but the gameplay was a nearly identical experience to what I played on my NES as a kid. The various challenges have brought me back to the game more...
Xbox 360 owners have been rocking out to the second installment of the Rock Band franchise for a little over a month now, but owners of the other popular consoles have been left out in the cold. Fear not fellow rockers, your time to shine is almost here. Harmonix officially announced the launch date for the...
Back when Super Smash Bros. Brawl came out, there were quite a few Wii owners that found they were unable to play it. The issue seemed to be with reading the discs, as the title was the first to use dual-layer DVDs. Nintendo claimed that the problem was that the lens was simply dirty (caused by dust and...
While the X-wing and TIE Fighter games will always have a special place in my book, the Rogue Squadron series is an excellent collection of Star Wars-based flight sims. We haven’t seen a new title in the series for some time, which has been a bit disappointing. However, a new rumor hints at a Rogue...
With the introduction of the Nintendo DSi came the announcement of DSWare games. Essentially this is the DSi equivalent of WiiWare titles (if that wasn’t obvious enough by the name). To pay for this, you’ll need Nintendo Points (which are re-branded Wii Points). You’ll buy the same cards...
It won’t be long before we’ve got yet another game built for rocking to buy. Guitar Hero: World Tour will be hitting store shelves by the end of the month, but just how much are we going to pay for our new disc and plastic instruments? Activision has thus far been mum on pricing, however, we...

Resident Evil 5’s Title Screen Couldn’t Play On The Wii
Posted by Chris Scott Barr on Oct 27, 2008 in Wii | 0 comments
It’s always sad for Wii owners to hear that they won’t be getting a particular game because the console’s hardware won’t be able to keep up. It rarely comes as a surprise, since it isn’t exactly the most powerful of the current console lineup. However, Resident Evil 5 producer...
Mega Man DLC Brings New Stage, Two New Difficulty Levels
