- A word from The Red Priest:
Have you always wanted the music from Karnov but just can’t find it? Would you like to be a Bad Dude and chill out to the tunes to Bad Dudes? Well here’s your chance!
That’s right, PoisonMushroom.Org’s affiliate ORCHNESTRA is holding it’s first contest ever! The prize? The game soundtrack you want as an update!
Today through next Sunday (10-15-06) you may submit games for consideration for the orchNEStra OST treatment! The top 10 write ins will then be voted on next week and the top 5 will constitute the first update after the contest ends!
Due to ftp issues the front page does not yet have this posted, but don’t let that stop you from going to the Mboard to vote.
- GameDaily takes a look at Yoshi’s Island DS, and gives their 2 cents.
- Additionally, they ask the question that has been on the lips of many in recent memory: Has SEGA lost its Sonic touch?
Of course, I know a few people in whom this article may just raise a bit of ire. If that’s you, feel free to comment. Personally, I expect a lot of tearing-up of this person’s arguments(for example, is Yuji Naka even involved anymore?).
- Wow, Go Nintendo has a link to an article that really plays up the Wii. Like, seriously plays up.
- More scans have surfaced for Itadaki Street DS, that Dragon Quest/Mario game.
What strikes me as so odd is that they’re specifically using Dragon Quest VIII characters, when it wasn’t on a Nintendo system. Makes you wonder…
- Got this from Game|Life. It’s a rather crappy quiz, perhaps due to space limitations, but there are some angles it doesn’t tackle. My score:
What does it mean?
You are a gamer, since you like all the systems, but Nintendo is your weapon of choice. But you don’t show disdain for any system.
- Joystiq brings up an interesting PlayStation 3… oversight?
Seems that the system has no IR port, and thus can’t be used(for its Blu-Ray Disc player, see) with a universal remote.
- Kotaku reports that VH1′s GameBreak says “8-Bit is the best movie about video games ever made.”
Sounds a bit strange to me, personally, but might be worth a look.
- It’s the Great Metroid, Charlie Brown!
- Press “Start” to play.
- Mario says, “All toasters toast toast.”
- You might have seen the trophy in Super Smash Bros. Melee and wondered what this Doshin the Giant game was all about.
Well, if that’s the case, then today is your lucky day as Press The Buttons presents The Forgotten: Doshin the Giant.
Hopefully coming soon to a Virtual Console near you.
- Remember “I Love Bees?” Seems the guy behind that has started his own company, complete with product placement on CSI. Sounds wild.
