Mario Kart 8 Direct

Have a look at this feature. Can't decide whether it's a parody of Top Gear or an NHK World programme! Maybe a cross between both. :)

Tons of info about Mario Kart 8 here as well as a tempting offer to buy this and get a download code for another Wii U game free.

I'm also quite fond of the minimalist Lakitu from the "Mario Kart Television" logo. There's no mistaking him with those glasses and the globe cloud underneath!

Mega 64's Robo Reggie promo thingy for E3 2014

This is pretty funny and cool seeing the Reggie robot move around like the Terminator. Wonder if this "Play Nintendo" thing is gonna be a string of entertaining skits?

First post using the E3 2014 tag!

James and Mike Mondays: Super Monkey Ball 2

Yeah! One of my favourite SEGA franchises and some of my favourite Internet personalities! James talks about how they played Super Monkey Ball in college and man... that makes him mah bro. Super Monkey Ball is one of my most played GameCube games and I always played in short bursts during breaks from studying as well.

Nintendo World Championships on NES Remix 2!

Very nice addition! The games featured here are Mario 1, 3 and Dr. Mario. I assume the scoring scheme matches that of the Nintendo World Championships NES cartridges. It's a very nice tribute. You need to have both NES Remix 1 and 2 to have access to this.

Super Luigi Bros on NES Remix 2

This is pretty cool. Going from right to left is unusual and takes a bit to get used to and you have Lost Levels jumping physics to deal with as well. Well worth a try though.

NES Remix 2 has replay videos!

Just got this and it's got some really cool features.

One of them is the replay videos of other people's performance, just like what we've seen in Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze! I love this feature and I hope to see it in many future games too.

Playing some more NES Remix 1 before 2 comes out!

Just thought I'd do this! It's a nice thing that hooks you in and doesn't let go and all of a sudden you're groaning over the game pad needing a recharge again and again since you don't notice the hours flying by.

Some I have trouble with or just don't understand like Baseball and Golf. There are many others that agitate and delight in equal measure too.
