Just in case soaping yourself with NES controllers wasn’t enough to satiate your nerd hunger, these bars of soap are also Mountain Dew scented. They were $34 for 4 bars but it appears as though they’ve sold out.

One of the nifty things about the Nintendo DSi (hand-held video game console) is that it has a built-in camera. It has two cameras, in fact; one that faces the user and one that faces away. I haven’t paid much attention to it because I already have a DS Lite and I hate it when companies make their own products obsolete after a year (not you, Apple..please keep releasing new stuff). Anyways, this is the first instance of “holy crap that’s brilliant” I’ve experienced in reading about this thing. (more…)

I think I heard something about a video game involving cheerleading. It’s really tough to be sure though…

This is quite impressive. It’s a picture from an ebay auction. This collection contains EVERY NES game released plus a couple of games that never hit circulation.

This has me a little jealous and wanting to hook up my Nintendo and play a little California Games. Nothing beats playing the roller skating game and watching that bitch trip over an ice cream cone and face plant.

So if you are feeling a little cheeky, the entire collection only costs $3800. Click Here

We all love video games, right? Today marks the beginning of the annual E3 conference where all the big players make some of their biggest announcements. Microsoft kicks things off at 10:30am Pacific time with their press conference, while Nintendo and Sony hold theirs tomorrow at 9:00am and 11:30am respectively. (more…)

The Nintendo Wii has been one of the biggest successes in video game history. I have no statistical data with which to back that statement, but take my word for it. Damn near everyone I know owns a Wii, including my mom. Even now, a year and a half after its launch, you’re lucky if you find one available to buy without checking eBay.

Nintendo has repeated this success with Wii Fit, a new game/peripheral bundle that gets you up off the couch and into various yoga poses, strength training exercises, and balance games. Wii Fit is pretty much as hard to find as the Wii itself, so obviously there’s a ton of hype surrounding it. Can this thing possibly live up to such expectations? Let me tell you, it absolutely does.

Anyone who owned a Nintendo 64 or a Nintendo Gamecube has probably heard of Super Smash Bros. It’s a series of fighting games that pits a bunch of famous Nintendo characters against each other in fierce battles to the death. For a Nintendo fan, there’s nothing cooler than playing as Mario and being able to beat the crap out of Princess Peach.

Nintendo recently released the third game in the series called Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Despite a few shortcomings, I completely recommend this game for any Nintendo fan who owns a Wii. (more…)

I thought I would be doing the world a great injustice if I didn’t further the linking of this video.

A lot of people give Nintendo a bad rap for sticking to formulas. As far as I’m concerned, when you’ve created some of the most memorable and beloved video game characters ever, I’d say you’re allowed to do whatever the hell you want.
