The fan-made Mega Man film by Eddie Lebron is looking pretty good, provided you're able to look at it with an open mind and consider that, for all the little differences there are, Hollywood would probably do far, far worse. The Robot Masters are definitely awesome,...

Someone at Capcom either really loves me, or really hates me. What makes me think they love me? Observe, to your right: One preorder bonus for Capcom's Bionic Commando, due in the middle of February 2009. A metal lunchbox, just like we had back in the 80's, adorned...

One of the most promising pieces of news to come out of Nintendo's Fall Summit at the beginning of October, in my humble opinion, was that North America was finally going to get Club Nintendo, which has been the name of a program which has persisted in Europe and...

Recently, I expressed my disappointment that Rare would exclude so much of its fanbase and target audience in the upcoming Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts by making the text nigh-unreadable on a standard-definition television. Worse still was when they were aware of the...

Nothing like a good Miyamoto interview, and MTV Multiplayer's by Stephen Totilo looks like it may be one of the better ones. It comes in three seperate parts, so there's quite a bit to go over; in fact, I haven't even had a chance to read it fully yet. But here's a...

They say you never forget your first. Of course, this usually applies to... other things: Kisses, girlfriends, cars, sometimes even video games and comic books and the like. But there is another first which is often overlooked: The first enemy you encounter in a video...

Matt over on Press the Buttons found something neat today that's been lingering for a couple of weeks. Over on Nintendo of Europe's website, they have a three-part interview with the staff of Good-Feel Co., Ltd, the developers of Wario Land: Shake It! Or as it's...

In my continued hunt for the Super Mario Bros. 3 t-shirt, I decided to check eBay again, to no avail. But holy hell, look at what I did find: I'm pretty sure I remember this from when I was growing up; that art came from an issue, the first issue in fact, of Nintendo...

Been spreading this around. One of my biggest beefs with games over the years, particularly as saving has become more commonplace, is the way some developers implement it. Particularly when it is done poorly. Over at Gamasutra, David Sirlin put together nice feature...
