Mini NES System Announced - $59.99 This November

Nintendo announced today that they are releasing a new version of the Nintendo Entertainment System: The Mini Collector's Edition NES.  This new NES is almost palm-sized, and comes pre-loaded with thirty classic titles.  And I wouldn't call all of them standard fare either.  Sure, they have Super Mario Bros. 3 and The Legend of Zelda, but this system will also include titles like Final Fantasy, Mega Man 2, and Ninja Gaiden.

The system will have a NES controller that uses the Wii Remote plug (they can be used for Wii and Wii U Virtual Console games), and will hook up to your HDMI port.  The system will sell for $59.99 when it launches this November.  Additional controllers will be available for $9.99 each.

Hit the jump for the full press release, including the list of games that will be included on this system.

Nintendo Download 6/20/13 - Farming Simulator 3D!

Today is an exciting day for 3DS owners in America, because now we can finally download Farming Simulator 3D!  I can't think of a better game to download on the last day of spring than Farming Simulator 3D.

Other releases include Mega Man 6, Tails Adventure, BUGS vs. TANKS!, Game & Wario, and Project X Zone. Little Inferno and Super Little Acorns 3D Turbo are the two latest titles to have a sale price.  Oh, and there is also something having to do with Luigi and DLC... I don't know.  You can read the full list after the break.

Nintendo Direct: E3 2013 - Mega Man Edition

If you missed this morning's Nintendo E3 Direct, you can watch the full thing right here.


If you don't have forty minutes to kill, here are the highlights: Mega Man in Smash Bros., Wind Waker HD in October, Super Mario 3D World on Wii U this Fall, and Mario Kart 8 has anti-gravity.

Nothing majorly surprising outside of Mega Man, but everything they showed looked good.

Project X Zone Coming to the United States!

Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day here in the states, and in the spirit of unity, it has been announced that the awesome looking 3DS title Project X Zone will be getting a release in North America, Australia, Latin America, and Europe.

If you are unfamiliar with this title, it is a turn-based strategy and fighting game smooshed together with over two hundred characters from over twenty nine game series released by three different companies.  So, if you've ever wanted to play a game with characters from .hack, Resident Evil, and Valkyria Chronicles, this is something you might want to look into.


Project X Zone will be released this summer.

Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom is No More

If you've ever wanted to team Ryu up with Casshan and fight against Mega Man Volnutt and Ken the Eagle, your time is running out!  Capcom has announced that their rights to Tatsunoko have lapsed, so they can no longer sell the game in-store or online.  Amazon has already removed their official listing for the game, leaving only other people selling the title through them.  Some of those retailers have already started jacking up the price, as shown in the screen grab below:
