Points of Interest – 12/07/06

  1. Evidently, Famitsu really likes Ryuusei no Rockman, aka MegaMan Star Force.
  2. What’s this? A hidden minigame in the new Zelda?
  3. So the Bob Ross Wii game may be canceled, or at least in limbo.

    Paint a sad little tree on your calendars this day, folks.

    Edit: Whup, spoke too soon! Happy tree!

  4. I don’t know what’s most incredible… that someone would bother hooking a Wii to a TV that size, that it works, or that there even is a TV that size.
  5. Wanna see how the controls for Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess breaks down? Here you go.
  6. Wii… bringing people together.
  7. The Onion waits for the Wii.
  8. Evidently, 1UP has some arguments in favor of playing Twilight Princess on the GameCube.

    …God. I hate to nitpick, but I’m just not sure what to think when an editor says “do your worse.” I’m pretty sure that it’s supposed to be “do your worst,” but maybe there’s some sort of English loophole I’m missing.

    Breaking it down, the “Long Hours” argument is crap. I’ve moved all over my couch when playing the game, no problems. With the two-piece controller, it’s actually easier to relax while playing than what the oldschool handcuff style allows.

    Not having played the Cube version, can’t speak on the “Buttons” argument. But I doubt that it’d address any of my own personal grievances with the setup, which has been standard in 3-D Zeldas since OoT.

  9. Turns out that the SEGA Genesis is good for more than just gaming, and you can take that to the bank.
  10. Remember Clash at Demonhead for the NES? Something Awful does.
  11. Joystiq provides their patented Metareview for Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin.
  12. I was so hoping that Sharkey would be the one to review Superman Returns, and I’m glad I wasn’t disappointed.

    Now, if only he used the bit from his E3 preview…

  13. When I started reading this, I thought someone in this world finally had their priorities straight as it regards to the significance of video game violence.

    …then I kept reading.

  14. “The Girl Gamer” has some interesting ideas regarding how to write original video game-related content.

    I wonder if I should write some of these down…

  15. Press The Buttons wants you to know that Twilight Princess is still awesome.

    (Btw, Matt, I’ve just moved PTB up my list of bookmarks so that you’re not scraping the bottom of my posts all the time. ;P )

  16. N-Europe follows up yesterday’s video with their epitaph for the GameCube.
  17. In addition, they take a good look at the Virtual Console, Nintendo’s underplayed Ace in the hole.
  18. Blaze Hedgehog has bad news about his XBox 360…

    Just three weeks after purchasing it, the console has been cursed with the Red Ring of Death.

  19. The Japanese Wii warning manual, remade as a 1950′s styled film reel.
