[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzTKKZ5lCAQ#![/youtube] To be fair, using the Wii U Game Pad as a hat, while incredibly silly, would make for a possibly great gameplay mechanic. Thanks to Ebolaworld64 for the hilarious video. NSFW language ahead.

Video: Metroid Lore in a Minute

The video, in rapid-fire succession, details Samus Aran’s origins all the way to the end of the original Metroid, along with some bits you may or may have not known about.  In add...

Zelda Skyward Sword: Best dungeons ever?

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZsK69PtuZ0[/youtube] Not quite halfway in and Zelda: Skyward Sword is already trending as one of my favorite Zeldas ever. Depending on how it pans out ’ and I’m definitelly in it to win it ’ I’d rank it on par with A Link to the Past, Ocarina, Wind Waker, and Minish Cap’my current favs. It’s certainly more inventive and better than Twiligh...

What do you think of this new Zelda Skyward Sword gameplay trailer?

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lFuDyJ-7N54[/youtube] It’s in Japanese, but there are some nice visual effects. I totally want to jump in that water fountain.

Aliens Infestation keeps getting better

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F0_Qp6DjYHc[/youtube] I still haven’t been able to pick this up, so I’m planning on making it a holiday purchase. Aliens: Infestation is one of the few games that makes player death mean something. There are a finite amount of marines in the game, and once one dies, he or she is gone forever. You can reload the game at a previous save point, but ...

Kirby Mass Attack: “The closest thing to a Canvas Curse sequel we’ll ever see”

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5T9eVfuiOo[/youtube] Kirby Mass Attack (out today) is getting really good reviews. Here’s one in particular: There will inevitably be Kirby purists who will baulk at the rather unorthodox gameplay concept behind Kirby Mass Attack, but if they do they’ll be missing out on one of Kirby’s most unique adventures to date. While there are a few ...

This game looks and sounds fun

How many of these 3DS games are you considering?

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ApnMjIOZMSI[/youtube] Out of upcoming ones, I’d only go with Mario Land 3D, and to a lesser extent, Mario Kart 7 (because I still think the DS version is the best Mario Kart evar.) What about you?

If this doesn’t excite 3DS buyers, I don’t know what will

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1TVsuIJ95jI[/youtube] Seriously, this thing feels like an infomercial. Got games?
