A Hokey Dr. Wily Christmas Special
Oh, I very nearly forgot-- over at The Mega Man Network, Heatman has posted a classic Flash cartoon he and Andrew Dickman worked on called "A Hokey Dr. Wily Christmas Special." You can find and enjoy that here. --LBD "Nytetrayn"
The New Super Mario World: Cave Christmas
And for our final video game Christmas cartoon, we're going back to the world of Mario for a "Cave Christmas." While I was hungry for anything Super Mario World at the time, The New Super Mario World (proper name) wasn't my favorite of the "trilogy," such as it was....
A Merry Mega Man X-Mas
Since Protodude beat me to the punch, I'll just say that if you want some winter-ized clips of Mega Man, MegaMan NT Warrior, MegaMan Star Force, and a Christmas-themed portion of Upon a Star, then all you have to do is click here. --LBD "Nytetrayn"
Christmas Comes to Pacland
Of course, Mario and friends aren't the only video game heroes to celebrate the season; Pac-Man has been known to save the holiday on occasion as well: More to come. --LBD "Nytetrayn"
The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!: Santa Claus is Coming to Flatbush
Why this live-action ep wasn't paired with the cartoon in the post below, I may never know. But so you get the full Super Mario Bros. Super Show! Christmas experience, here is "Santa Claus is Coming to Flatbush," which bookends "Star Koopa," an obvious parody on Star...
The Super Mario Bros. Super Show!: Koopa Klaus
What happens when the dastardly King Koopa kidnaps Santa Claus? What else? The Mario Bros. (and Princess Toadstool and Toad) to the rescue! And then, all is well, and Toad even learned a lesson about giving. Now, let's see how well that holds up in New Super Mario...
Smash Bros. X-Mas
Since he's already all dressed up for the part, King Dedede decides to play Santa Claus for all the good little boys, girls, and anthromorphs in the Smash Bros. world: ...whoops! Someone must have mistakenly put a "naughty" box into the "nice" pile! But then, what did...
Merry Christmas, Everyone!
And I'll try to post some fun stuff later. --LBD "Nytetrayn"
Merry Christmas to All, and to All a Good NiGHTS
Before video game demos were commonplace enough that you could play them in your own home, SEGA devised a way to get people into the holiday spirit with one of their flagship titles for the Saturn known as Christmas NiGHTS. Bob Mackey of the 1UP Retro Blog has written...
Last-Minute Wii Shopping Ideas
This is coming a bit later than I had planned, hence the "last minute" part. Christmas is nearly upon us, and I've wanted to assemble a short Wii gift guide for those looking for a good game at a good price. Nothing against Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3, but I haven't...

Classic 7up Christmas Commercial
I've decided to add a little Christmas cheer around here... Ah, how I miss the 7up Cool Spots. They had a nifty Super NES/SEGA Genesis game, and I think they just made the product a little more enjoyable, as you could easily look at the logo on your can or bottle of...
Tails and Sonic 2 Turn 17
I'm really going to have to quit acknowledging the anniversary of every little video game-related thing that comes up. But before I do that, one more for the road, I guess. SEGA's Sonic City Blognik pointed out today that Tails, and thus Sonic the Hedgehog 2, turned...
Caution: Spoiler Alert
Oh, do I ever hate spoilers. I'm willing to accept it after a given period of time-- there's a point where it's simply your fault if you haven't seen/played/read the material in question, I believe. What drives me crazy is when you never see it coming, and it's so...
Turtles Forever: The End of an Era
Just a friendly reminder: Turtles Forever, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles anniversary animated movie featuring different versions of the fab four teaming together will air tomorrow, November 21st, at 10am on CW-4Kids. Here is a little preview: This well and truly...
A Look Back at 22 Years of Mario
It is much to my regret that at this most joyous time of year, i.e. the release of a new Mario title, that I am unable to really sit down and put pen to paper (or rather, fingers to keyboard) and talk about my history with the franchise and what it means to me. And it...
Mario Rings in the Holidays and New Super Mario Bros. Wii with Voicemail Messages
Is anyone else looking forward to New Super Mario Bros. Wii like I am? If so, then you might be interested in some of these cool voicemail recordings of Mario and Luigi which Nintendo of Canada's PR agency sent me earlier, featuring yet more awesome voice work by Mr....
Nintendo 64 Revealed at E3 1996
First, apologies for not updating the site more. On top of my regular duties, I've been working on reviewing some games, namely various versions of WWE SmackDown vs. Raw 2010, and if SEGA ever responds, maybe Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games. That said, I...
TMNT: Smash-Up Review Now on Kombo
At long last, following numerous interruptions, distractions, and other things getting in the way, my review of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Smash-Up for the Wii is now available on Kombo.com. And boy, is it a doozy. I think it would have been better served had it...
Boy Obsessed with Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out!!
Here's a little gem that was made back in 2007, but only found its way to the pages of GoNintendo earlier today. It's a fun little look back to what it was like playing (and trying to get) video games on the Nintendo Entertainment System back in the 80's, as Alex...
