Review on New Play Control! Donkey Kong Jungle Beat



Developer(s): Nintendo EAD Tokyo
Publisher(s): Nintendo
System(s): Nintendo Wii
Genre(s): Platforming
Release Date: (NA) May 4, 2009 (EU) June 5, 2009

Gameplay:
If for some reason you absolutely do not know what the New Play Control! series is yet it's a list of Gamecube remakes (that specifically have to be made by Nintendo) that have been ported to a Wii disc and having their Gamecube controls replaced with new Wii motion controls. Now that that's out of the way.... Donkey Kong Jungle Beat originally had very creative controls with the currently uncommon Donkey Kong Bongos made for the game, Donkey Konga, an uh... alright music party game that I will do a review for one of these days. But annoyingly they had replaced the awesome bongos with crappy, under sometimes overly sensitive Wii motion controls. Another thing about Jungle Beat is it's very short! it took me exactly 1 week to beat this game not even counting the weekend either, 5 days is all it took to beat this game. But it still is very good. At the beginning of the game it is very unique but after the first many bosses Nintendo apparently runs out of ideas for them. They keep using the same bosses the only difference is each boss is slightly harder and has a different color scheme but other than that not one thing different even though some of the bosses are pretty fun, even more then one time like the Tusks, which are mechanical Mammoths that you throw bomb pineapples at its laser trunk and when the pineapples blow up its heart comes out of its chest and you throw more pineapples at it, or the Rocs, giant birds that carry HUGE black eggs that you jump up on at the right moment and you scratch its egg by shaking the Wiimote and Nunchuck. But the last boss I swear is one of the most easiest bosses in the whole game. I mean I got the highest medal you can get from that one boss not any other level. Still on the page of bosses there is one boss stage that is only in the Wii version of the game that stage is "Kong of the Mountain" where you fight each main boss Dread Kong, Karate Kong, Ninja Kong, Sumo Kong, and Ghastly King (Also known as Cactus Kong) consecutively. Let's now move onto Animal Buddies. There are 4 new Animal Buddies: Hoofer, a wild bison that is used for running through levels, Flurl, a flying squirrel that turns into a parachute allowing Donkey Kong to drift down, Heliberd, a large bird that drifts in the air a lot like Flurl but it goes up instead of down, and then there's Orco, a rambunctious orca whale that is only found in water and can jump super high! The goal of Jungle Beat is to collect as many bananas as you can and getting medals for them which can unlock special levels near the end of game.



Graphics:
Well graphics I don't know if they are any better then the Gamecube version because I have only played the Wii's game so far. The graphics are pretty detailed though even more detailed then Donkey Kong Barral Blast for the Wii in Jungle Beat you can actually see the fur better on Donkey Kong then in the anticipated racing game for the Wii. Even the side-scrolling backgrounds are very detailed.




Rating:
Great game! Good graphics, fun but repetitive bosses, and above all it's little too short. This game gets an 8/10!

Review on Legend of Zelda Spirit Tracks




Message Before We Start:
Sorry, I haven't posted a video game review in a while I'm caught up with School and other crap I have to put up with during the day that keeps me from doing this and other things that I would do if I had time.

System(s): Nintendo DS
Genre(s): Action-adventure

Rating: Everyone 10+

Gameplay:
This game is a sequel to the 2 games, The Legend of Zelda Windwaker and The Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass though it is much more like Phantom Hourglass. The game features many challenging puzzles and other things that give it that fun all time Zelda title we all know and love. In the last two predecessors of Zelda Spirit Tracks, Link had some kind of transportation which were two different boats in this game though the boats are replaced with a train. As you go through the game there will be many enemies on your train tracks that will keep you from going to your destination in the beginning they're large animals that you have to blow your horn at to scare them away but as you advance through the game the enemies will become harder and you will most likely have to bomb them to kill them.

Story:
At the beginning of the game the game is telling you a story of how one day in ancient times the evil Demon King, Malladus, was sealed away underground for eternity (or as they thought) it was revealed that train tracks are supposed to be shackles and the Tower of Spirits (a tower near the Hyrule Castle) is their lock. When the story is done with it turns out it was narrated by Link's... somewhat old roommate Niko who accidentally put Link to sleep with his story. About a second later Link's mentor, Alfonzo, comes in shaking Link awake informing him to meet him at his train station so that Link can drive his train to the Hyrule Castle so that Princess Zelda can give him his Train Engineer certificate. Once you get to the entrance with the guards keeping you from coming in Zelda's Chancellor, Chancellor Cole, will come and make them let you in he is a obnoxious, mysterious, small man who has a creepy evil smile and where's two hats. Chancellor Cole thinks the ceremony for Link is a waste of time. When you come in Zelda immediately walks in and introduces herself she gives you your certificate and a letter she tells him quietly to read it later and to beware of Cole. Once Link reads his letter from Zelda it tells him how to get to her room when you walk into her room you find her playing a magical instrument passed down to her from her Great-Grandmother. Anyway Zelda wants Link to take her to the Spirit Tower because the Spirit Tracks seem to be vanishing and she wants to see what's happening to them. She also thinks Chancellor Cole is up to something. She gives Link a guard's uniform so that they think he's one. That's apparently how he got his green tights but we're not talking about that now. After Link sneaks Zelda past the all the guards they are caught by Alfonzo who wonders what is happening it turns out that he used to be a castle guard and Zelda convinces him to help Link and Zelda go to the Tower of Spirits. When they are close to the tower the train tracks they are riding on suddenly disappear and that minute the Tower of Spirits is surrounded of thick, dark, purple clouds and the large structure immediately breaks apart and another thick group of black clouds come and turn into a giant evil train. Chancellor Cole then comes out and greets them, blowing off his two hats that reveal two large horns. It turns out he's a demon who is trying to kill Zelda and release the Demon King so he can enter her body. When Link and Alfonzo try to protect her, Cole's magical evil henchman, Byrne, comes in and beats both of them with one hit each. After that Cole shoots a ball of darkness at Zelda the kills her. Then Byrne picks up Zelda's body and walks away, unconscience Link watches them as they carry Zelda's body away. Link wakes up in the Castle sleeping on a bed beside Alfonzo greeted by Zelda's teacher. Once you go to Zelda's throne you'll find her ghost trying to talk to the guards but they can't hear her or see her only Link can. She sadly goes into her room so you'll have to go into her room to let her know you can see her. She'll let you have her Spirit Flute (the instrument she was playing earlier) which will allow you to do many magical spells. You go back to what was rest of the Tower of Spirits and the find a magical woman that doesn't walk so she always sits in a cart like seat that is her only way of moving, she belongs to a race of witches and wizards that move in those little carts the species is called Locomotives. Since your train was landed of the tracks she gives you the Spirit Train after you complete the first dungeon so you can travel around the map.

Graphics:
Yet again the game is like Windwaker and Phantom Hourglass but instead of with the gameplay it is with the graphics.... duh. But the graphics are just like these two games mainly because of the type of Link they use. He's basically the same thing as Young Link except he looks slightly different and a little less detailed also he made an appearance in the last Super Smash Bros. game, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, even though anybody who reads this will definitely know who it is so I'll just say it right now, Toon Link. Also Toon Zelda which is also a younger version of another important character in The Legend of Zelda series.

Rating:
Great great game full of puzzles, action, RPG like adventure, and almost everything a Zelda title should have and a new concept too. This game gets an 8/10.

Review on Tetris



Developer(s): Nintendo R&D1, Bullet-Proof Software
Publisher(s): Nintendo
System(s): NES, Nintendo Game Boy
Genre(s): Puzzle
Release Date: (NA) August 1989
Rating: Everyone

Gameplay:
Tetris is probably the most simple video game ever made but it is so addictive that it still has you coming back to it at least once a week. You have many different shaped blocks and the object of the game is to stack them the perfect way each time where you can get a straight line consisting them. When you do this the line disappears and gives you points. What a great idea you might ask? Well, Nintendo didn't actually come up with the idea. It was really programmed by Alexey Pajitnov from the Soviet Union who named it "Tetяis".

Graphics:
Well Graphics are decent for a Game Boy and NES game, flat and old.

Extra Features:
Whats pretty cool about this version of Tetris is it has a multiplayer option on both the NES and the Game Boy. Tetris games with the Game Boy you need a friend with a Game Boy and a copy of Tetris and you need a a link cable to hook up to both of your Game Boys so you can play 2 player unless you have the NES version.

Rating:
Decent game not very fun but not very boring either, pretty addictive this game gets a 6/10.

Review on Metroid Prime



Developer(s): Retro Studios
Publisher(s): Nintendo
System(s): Nintendo Gamecube
Genre(s): First-person shooter, action-adventure
Release Date: (NA) November 19, 2002 (EU) March 21, 2003
Rating: Teen

Gameplay:
This game is full of great fun and adventure. Sometimes frustrating, this game is full of many puzzles and fighting skill much like Legend of Zelda. This game is basically a futuristic first person shooter but also an adventure game. throughout the game you will have a lot of data to scan from enemies you see for the first time, to computer data. You can even scan bosses if you ever get a chance without getting hit by it. Something I do not like very much about this game though is that you have to keep playing until you find a room that allows you to save.

Story:
It all starts when Samus Aran lands on the Space Pirate Frigate, a ship that orbits around the planet, Tallon IV, after hearing a signal of distress about its crew that had just been slaughtered by the space pirate's experiments. On the Space Pirate Frigate after she defeats the Parasite Queen the giant extraterrestrial monster falls to the core of the ship quickly dying. This causes the space ship to countdown to its self-destruction, giving Samus only a couple of minutes to get out of it so she can survive avoiding enemies and space pirates on the way. half way out of the ship she meets up with her old pal, Ridley, except this time Ridley has been transformed by the space pirates into a cyborg beast renamed, Meta Ridley, due to being damaged so badly from last time Samus defeated it, flying away, Samus quickly gets out and starts chasing Meta Ridley, but loses it. She lands on the planet Tallon IV and that's when the game really starts.

Graphics:
Metroid Prime is the first 3-D Metroid game in the series and had very good graphics at the time. They are very well designed and there is a lot of depth in them. I also enjoy how they make them so detailed at times if you look at close ups on Samus's head inside the robot suit you can see her face through the green glass.

Extra Features:
A special extra feature has been added to this game too. If you own any kind of Gameboy Advance with the game Metroid Fusion (Beaten). Then with a Gamecube and a special cord called, the Link Cable, that allows you to connect the Gamecube with the Gameboy Advance along with Metroid Prime and the beaten game of Metroid Fusion in each system and you can acquire the NES Metroid game playable on Metroid Prime.

Rating:
This is a very fun Gamecube game I love it. It gets an 8/10 recommended to any kind of a gamer.

*Old School Game Reviews* Review on Donkey Kong Country


Today's review is of Donkey Kong Country. Well, to start off with this game is a very great game the gameplay is amazing it is maybe one of my few favorite SNES games. The bosses and levels are awesome and of course there is going to be a great soundtrack of 90's video game music. The story of the game is King K. Rool has once again stolen something from the DK's the bananas that belong to Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong and you have to run throughout the game tracking down King K. Rool. While going through levels and worlds. You always bump into Donkey Kong's friends that help you on your way like Candy Kong, Funky Kong, and Cranky Kong. They each have specific jobs to do on your way for saving the game, bringing you to a certain location in the game, or just explaining unreasonable, boring stories to you. The game's multiplayer is pretty cool too. You can play as one player playing as Donkey Kong or Diddy Kong depending on how you die or you can play as two players and you can either work together with your friend or just play against each other. Now to the graphics, they are actually kinda ahead of the SNES's time it wasn't 3-D but the characters in it actually looked 3-D they were great just like this whole game! I give it a 9/10

Review on Sonic the Hedgehog The Beginning


This is a rare book to find, I can't find anything else that has to do with this book on the internet. This is a good book it includes Sonic the Hedgehog Comics from 1993. This Comic Book has a silly (sometimes corny) sense of humor. But it is a great book especially if your a fan of the old Sonic series it involves characters that no longer star in the series and some of my favorite parts is whenever it says Dr. Robotnik instead of Eggman. I love this book I don't know if I could rate a book but what the heck! I'll just give it a 9/10.

Review on Photo Dojo *Limited Time Offer*



Yeah, games are fun pretending to be our favorite heroes such as Link, Pac-Man, and Sonic. But it's not like you're actually in the game. Well, did you know there is someway you can be in a game? That's right you can, all you need is a DSi and Internet Connectivity. You can use these 2 things to get something really cool and that is the new DSi Ware game, Photo Dojo. But you better get this game quick because until June 5th, 2010 it'll be absolutely free! But this game is fun you have to time yourself to do poses that your DS tells you to do and when it times out it automatically takes a picture of you and you also get to give yourself catch phrases by recording your voice. you can even take a picture of your battle scene. You can make up to 8 characters so you can put your friends and family in the game too. I really, really recommend this game have to get it before June 5th I give this game 9/10

Happy Mother's Day



Happy Mothers day! I am not a big fan of Cooking Mama but I didn't think Mother Brain was an appropriate picture for this holiday. But that doesn't matter what does matter is to give thanks to your mother for what she does whether she raises you or used to raise you as her loving son or daughter give her a gift to tell her "Thank you mom. For all that you do and have done for me." like cook! .... what the picture is Cooking Mama.... Oh well. Just tell your mom or whoever raised you that you love them and have a great holiday.

Review on Super Smash Bros. Brawl



One of the most famous Wii Games and all time game in the Smash Brother's series. This game returns the stars of the games that have been in them for a long time such as Mario, Link, Samus, and some new and unusual characters that have come for the first time like Samus's unarmored counterpart Zero Suit Samus, Falco, Olimar, King Dedede and more, it also includes characters that have been gone from gaming for a while including Mr. Game & Watch, Pit, and R.O.B. Super Smash Bros. has been following a pattern of only including Nintendo Characters but this time they have broken that law. Super Smash Brothers introduces new veterans to their team of unstoppable soldiers of Smash Brothers, it's brought the first two 3rd party characters in the series ever which includes Solid Snake from Metal Gear and Sonic the Hedgehog from.. well.... Sonic the Hedghog. Anyway, the story has alot of teaming up of the fighters until they all form one big army to defeat the center of evil in the game, Tabuu, unfortunately he turns all of the characters into trophies but don't worry Kirby saves the day by turning everyone back and defeating the evil virus of death. This game also has classic bosses such as Petey Piranha from Mario, Ridley from Metroid, Rayquaza from pokemon, and you know there is gonna be Master Hand who (Sniff) gets killed in the game because all this time he wasn't actually evil he was just controlled by Tabuu but when Gannondorf saves him from Tabuu that same minute Master Hand tries to make Tabuu pay for what he had done but he had to kill Master Hand (Blowing Nose)... oh well it also once again introduces Master Hand's left thumbed brother, Crazy Hand, who seems to like to take part in what looks like he's having seizures. The game's graphics are the best I have never seen graphics like this for a game made by Nintendo just take a look at Mario's overalls, they are much more detailed in this game then real Mario Games. You can also collect trophies in the game based on items and characters from video games that take part in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. This game is the best it gets 10/10 I haven't found one flaw for it.

2 Yoshi's Island Reviews!

Today I'm gonna do two Yoshi's Island Reviews because I promised that I would soon do a review on the original Yoshi's Island and I thought eh... if I do a review on Yoshi's Island I might as well do a review on Yoshi's Island DS so here I am making these two reviews now.





*Old School Game Reviews* Review on Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

Ah, remember back in the day when most video games were actually oh I don't know GOOD? Well define good this game is one of the BEST!! better than Super Mario World in my opinion it's the 2nd game to feature Yoshi and Yoshi was actually the main star in the game it starts out when Kamek brings trouble onto the Mario brothers Why? They were only babies at the time what did they ever so far do to Kamek? Well Kamek had predicted that as adults these mischief little twins will cause havoc for the Koopa Kingdom so Kamek thinks she can fix it by taking them away from their homes but luckily a stork saves them from the evil hands or claws?... of one of Kameks goons. Well actually the stork only saved one of the babies, Luigi on the other hand was needing some serious saving because the stork was captured as well and Mario fell ironically safely on a Yoshi's back. Confused, the Yoshi happily decides to help Baby Mario save his little brother and the stumped stork. But since only a baby and a unwanted bird showed up it was up to Kamek to try to steal the remaining baby from Yoshi. Throughout the game you eat enemies to turn them into eggs which become very useful for earning lives and especially for fighting bosses but the most annoying thing in the game is once Mario is separated from you he cries very and I mean VERY annoyingly but most of the game makes up for it. My favorite boss battle was fighting Baby Bowser, after getting past most of the castle you find Baby Bowser and Kamek while Bowser is sleeping he wakes up in a tantrum stomping Kamek flat. But as he gets a sight of Yoshi he confuses him with a green Donkey and tries to stomp on Baby Mario as a mini boss battle but the best part is when you beat that first little sample of a Baby Bowser fight then the real boss battle happens, see after you beat Baby Bowser Kamek heals him but she doesn't just heal him she makes him 100 times bigger than he already is I'm not gonna tell you exactly how it goes you'll have to find out yourself but it is epic! anyway after you completely beat Bowser than you run toward what you now see is Baby Luigi and the stork tied up and well you know what happens.. oh ya don't?.. well... YOU FREE THEM AND BEAT THE GAME DUH! anyway despite one of the most hated things about Nintendo which is the crying Mario I will give this game my first 10/10! Because this was one of the most exciting games I've ever played.



Review on Yoshi's Island DS

Well this game is near the same but it has a couple of new features that takes the fun out of the series but one of those new features don't take the fun out of the game which is all the new babies you can ride with like Baby Donkey Kong, Baby Peach, Baby Wario, and even Baby Bowser on your back along with Baby Mario it starts out where Kamek is once again kidnapping babies but this time not just Mario and Luigi she's also capturing many other babies looking for star children which are 7 babies with amazing powers which include Baby Peach, Donkey Kong, Mario, Luigi, Wario and Bowser and at the end of the game you figure out the last baby which I'm not spoiling because this is a review not wikipedia, okay later you find out that the Kamek capturing the star babies is the Kamek from the future along with Adult Bowser to rule the world. there is not much to talk about here because I mean it's too close to Yoshi's Island so I don't think there is anymore for me to talk about I will give it 7/10 due to lack of fun brought on by the original Yoshi's Island.

SAVE THE PLANET!!!!


Recycle, Conserve, And SAVE THE EARTH!!! Happy Earth Day! Today is the special day once every year that we use to reflect what we do that hurts the planet and remember always what happens to the planet happens to us too. Anyway everyone should use this special day to plant trees, conserve electricity and fossil fuels, recycle and do something as simple as keeping your sink from dripping even though most of us should be doing this everyday. I mean I have to admit I'm a little to lazy to do most stuff like that but most of us are and we shouldn't do that, I'm going to celebrate this holiday by buying that new game, Wario Ware D.I.Y, and not let it get old at some dusty video game shop to get thrown away. I will also celebrate it with real ways to save the Earth too like I mentioned earlier. So remember today don't just stay at home playing your laptop, PS3, Wii, DS, PSP, or any system or electronic device what so ever too long and remember to get out, smell the roses and kick some pollution out of the galaxy!

*Old School Game Reviews* Review on Super Mario World


This is one of the best games ever made for the SNES. I mean, I know it came with the SNES but it's way better then Wii Sports that came with the Wii. It was also the first game that starred Nintendo's famous Yoshi. There is not much back story on this game though it doesn't explain when or how Bowser captured Peach or how the Mario Brothers found out how she was captured or what the only backstory that took place in the game is where Yoshi explained how he was trapped in an egg where he couldn't get out by Bowser so he could kidnap the princess. But the game doesn't need the back story because it's already too Awesome!!! I wished they'd bring back all the enemies and power ups in the game that have been long forgotten since the 1990's. Actually most of the things from Super Mario World were in the game, Super Mario Bros. Wii, I was so happy whenever I pointed out things from Mario World in Super Mario Brothers. Like if you have ever played Mario Brothers for Wii then you would probably remember that circle made up of Boos, the most famous ghost enemies in the Mario series, well that Boo circle is origianally from Super Mario World. Also Super Mario World features the Koopalings much like how they returned to video games in Super Mario Brothers Wii. Of course in the 90's they were called the Koopa Kids. Though all aside, the bottom line is this is one of the best Nintendo made games ever I'll give this game a straight 9/10 stay tuned in a couple of weeks I will be talking about Super Mario World 2: Yoshis Island.

Review on Super Mario Galaxy


I can't choose between this game or Super Mario Brothers Wii if either one is my all time favorite Mario game for the Nintendo Wii but let's just say it is one of my favorites. This game is very fun most people say it's too easy but there are a couple of challenging and very frustrating puzzles, levels, and bosses for the game. It starts out when Mario is invited to Peach's castle to watch the Star Festival with her that happens every 100 years. But Bowser, knowing him as a serious party crasher, ONCE AGAIN is coming to steal Princess Peach away from Mario. He gets a giant alien space ship to carry the castle that Peach is in and pull it out of the ground even though that's kinda impossible but apparently it is possible in the video game world anyway Mario still on the castle while it's in space is BLOWN onto a distant planet due to Kamek waving her fancy little wand trying to help Bowser. Well on that planet he finds alien bunnies that turn into stars and bring him to their adopted mother, Rosalina, to help him find the princess. Through the game you keep on going back and fourth going from Rosalina's mother ship to new levels. The levels were clearly very fun with the design on the round planets and things on the planets that aren't possible on Earth such as lakes that float in midair or Electric Monsters of some sort. Even though most of the planets and galaxys were way to small to be considered planets and galaxys but in Super Mario Galaxy 2 they fix that problem but lemme focus on Mario Galaxy 1. At the end of each level you get these stars that were the same exact stars in Super Mario 64 except they were renamed Power Stars they are sorta like Shine Sprites in Super Mario Sunshine because they fuel that big Sprite in the middle of the island that you are on but in Galaxy you are fueling Rosalina's half broken space ship By letting them go into this huge star in the center of it. Actually most of the whole game is based on Mario Sunshine so if you really liked Mario Sunshine I'd reccomend this but I'd also reccomend it to people who haven't played Sunshine because so far I have never played that game but I still like Galaxy, but don't get your hopes down maybe one of these days you'll see a review for Mario Sunshine but as of right now it's time for me to rate the video game. I'll give it an 8/10.

Review on Grill Off with Ultra Hand



This game you can get as a wiiware game but you cannot just get it at your wii shop channel. I said on my April Fools Day post that you got it from a certain website that I wasn't gonna say until today and if you looked at one of my previous posts "Review on Game & Watch Collection DS" to be exact. Then you would have found the link. https://club.nintendo.com/rewards.do;jsessionid=FE4A83F4CBE78A9C26BE4957B57F999E Club Nintendo, the website where you can collect points for doing surveys on games you own and then use them to get free Nintendo collectibles. Anyway I told you the website now I'm going to get to the review. You start out controlling a toy hand grabbing meat that falls onto three grills in front of you and you have to make sure they are ready before grabbing them you also have to make sure they don't burn or else it's game over for you. As you get to more levels the grills get hotter so it makes the meat cook faster and it also lets more meat fall. At first the game is hard to get used to with the controls but once you get the hang of it it's kinda fun, BUT ONLY FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS!!! It's always the same thing and there is not neccessarly a goal except to get the highest score because it is based on a toy Nintendo had made before they started making video games. The controls are weird cause you have a wii remote and a nunchuck and you have to move them 2 certain ways, use the control stick, and press, let go of, and hold down the A button at the right times all at the same time though it's easier then you think, well for me it is. This game I'll say is okay I'll give it 5/10 so basically it makes a 50%

Review on Animal Crossing: City Folk (Let's Go to the City)



My last Animal Crossing Review was kinda boring but lemme make it up with this review. Okay, most People say Animal Crossing: City Folk is boring because it's to much like Wild World and the Gamecube version. But I disagree, I mean yeah it is a little to much like the other 2 previous titles (and 3 previous titles in Japan) but it still has alot of differences and is very fun and you should expect that most Nintendo games are like that. Anyway this game is very exciting it has almost all the features from the previous game and new ones like new bugs, new fish new ways to do things, new music and my favorite part the new feature that allows you to take a bus once again driven by the talking pirate kappa, Kapp'n, who always drives some different type of transportation in each game such as boat, taxi, and now bus. When you go to the city you will always see different visitors that possibly will move into your town. Also at the city you will find numerous stores and small shops that in Wild World would often visit you in your town like Crazy Redd has a shop in the city in City Folk but in Wild World he would set a tent up in your town. You also discover Ressetii, the mole that yells at you whenever you reset without saving, also originally lives in the city. Well enough about the city I'm gonna talk about one more cool feature, okay this is a very important feature it's where you can use the Wii Speak accessorie to talk through the game using Wi-Fi if you want this game with Wii Speak then it usually comes with it and Wii Speak is very fun to use even without the game too anyway, good game I give it a 7/10

Review on Animal Crossing: Wild World



Okay I am gonna start reviewing older games as well as new games and to start off with that I'm gonna review one of my favorite DS games, Animal Crossing: Wild World. This game usually looks like a stupid game judging by the cover but it is not stupid at all. If your one of those people who love virtual life games and animals this games is both of those packed in one. In this game you start off as a human that will move to a village filled with talking animals typical nintendo idea don't you think? Well it's still a very good game. Everyday your local store in the game will have different collectible items to put around your house, you can make your house bigger by paying your mortgage to your landlord, you can do other stuff too like buy accessories, sell stuff you don't want, send mail to animals in your town, visit your friends' towns through wi-fi, and more you can also do stuff you can't do in real life like shoot down a UFO with a sling shot, shoot down a mail carrying pelican also with a slingshot, get screamed at by a annoying yet funny mole that gets mad at you whenever you reset the game without saving, hit rocks with gold shovels and get bags of money that fly out of them and alot of stuff! The possibilities are almost endless in Animal Crossing: Wild World.

*Old School Game Reviews* Review On Pokemon Blue and Red Version


In my opinion these are two of the best pokemon games in history. They have way more surprises and mystery's then the newer games, like how the last gym leader stays in a locked up gym and when you finally fight him you will be very surprised who it is. This game has all the original starters, Gary, the original Elite 4, and much more. This game is so fun and still ejoyed by the few people who still own a gameboy in this world today, one of those people are me. Now the graphics I didn't appreciate to much but nobody should expect good graphics from a gameboy even though I still thought they could've been a little better. The music was some of my favorite things about this game you cannot get pokemon music like that these days. The games frustrate me sometimes but those features in the series hasn't been improved yet infact some things frustrate me in the new pokemon games that didn't in pokemon red and blue. This game is the greatest I give it an 8 out of 10

Review on Pokemon HeartGold SoulSilver *Special Edition*

Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver are two exciting games. I've gotten a little tired of playing what is practically the same thing when it comes to pokemon games but this is a new door opened up it brings back so many memories of old video games. It brings back all the original pokemon from the beginning and especially two favorites. Who might that be you ask? Well as you can obviously see its Ho-oh and Lugia!!! some all time legendarys they're the best! Ho-oh is my favorite but that's just my opinion. I'll get to the special edition part in the review in a minute but first we have to explain the game a little more first. Well as the story classically plays along you start out at the beginning of the game as a 10 year old pokemon trainer who has to meet a scientist and get their first pokemon meeting for the first time in the game with a partner of the opposite gender. You two fight in gyms to get badges and defeat the pokemon league. Well since this is a remake it has the starters the pokemon from the original game, you can choose between Totodile, Chikorita, and Cyndaquil and don't forget your male opponent that you always have. In Pokemon Diamond and Pearl he played your friend but in this game he is practically a criminal who stole a pokemon from Professor Elm. The design for this game is mind blowing, the graphics are slightly better than Diamond and Pearl's. This is a great game! It also comes with the Poke'walker accessorie you put your pokemon inside it and level it up by walking its much easier then fighting a bunch of stronger pokemon. If you pre-ordered it before it came out you get a special edition Ho-oh or Lugia figure its a very awesome decoration for your room! I give the games a 6 out of 10!

Review on Donkey Kong Jungle Beat Wii

This game has surprises every minute! Yeah I mean its not as good as Donkey Kong Country but come on a Donkey Kong game with Wii motion in it I've got to get this. Now it's a good game but what Nintendo dumbly did that made this game a little uncreative is they sometimes make you fight bosses that you've already beat in previous levels of the same game the only difference of them is that they are different color and slightly harder then the other ones I was also disappointed that most of the game was usually did not include any other Kong's except the evil villains in the game like Karate Kong, also the game has not used any of the animals from the old games, these new animals might be a little cool and have better graphics but that is no excuse to let go of all the ones from SNES or so on. But besides those small flaws this is a great game! It really gets you into the spirit of Donkey Kong, I mean I had a craving for a banana whenever I got done playing with it (Audience Laughs), Though this game is a little hard to find because I think they went out of production with it. But luckily I found my copy at GameStop *Thank God*. Anyway If you find this game I recommend you buy it to any Great Gamer or Nintendo Fanboy. Oh, and before I end this post I must inform you that you cannot use the bongos for the one on Wii but you can for the Gamecube version. I hope you will like Donkey Kong Jungle Beat and have a great day.

Review on Game & Watch Collection DS


The picture above is the case for "Game & Watch Collection DS." You can probably tell by the obvious logo for Club Nintendo on the case that the only way you can get it is by Club Nintendo, https://club.nintendo.com/. Anyway in my opinion this is a great game though only having 3 Game & Watch games programed into it. It is just like the first version of Game & Watch Collection, it has the same exact graphics and the games it contains are "Oil Panic", "Donkey Kong", and "Green House." I reccomend this game to anyone but remember you cannot get it at the store so it's not as easy to get unless you have 25 games or something.
