Spend Valentine’s Day with Rhythm Heaven Fever

We’ve pretty much gotten used to the fact that the Wii doesn’t get great games pretty often. Actually, we’ve been spoiled the last few months. You know, what with The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, Kirby’s Return to Dreamland, Rune Factory: Tides of Destiny, Rayman Origins and the forthcoming Fortune Street. I mean, what will we do in January 2012 when no Wii games are being released. The answer is simple – we’ll catch up on our backlogs and wait for Rhythm Heaven Fever.

Because in January, we’ll always know that Rhythm Heaven Fever is only a month away…

Sugar Rush: Looking back at 10 of the cutest Nintendo games Part 1

We often hear “Don’t judge a book by its cover,” and it is a nice philosophy to have, but often times, we can’t do it – even if we know its right. Human beings can be incredibly superficial creatures, and this superficiality gives items and people with beautiful appearances an edge. After all, are you going to buy a game that doesn’t look good? Probably not.

Nintendo’s smart – the company didn’t get to be one of the top three video game players by ignoring its potential consumers. The result of this is the company developing and producing incredibly adorable games. Now, the adorability isn’t the main selling point, but some titles just end up being cuter than others.

So Gamertell has decided to look back over Nintendo’s extensive video game release history to pick out the 10 sweetest titles Nintendo’s ever had a hand in. I’d recommend not eating candy while reading – you don’t want to go into diabetic shock or something…

Rhythm Tengoku Gold transforms to Rhythm Heaven at E3

I bet all those North Americans who preordered Rhythm Tengoku Gold at Play-Asia or a similar site feel sorry now – Nintendo announced at E3 2008 that the music game similar to WarioWare will be released in North America as Rhythm Heaven. Like its GBA predecessor Rhythm Tengoku (which was never released stateside), Rhythm Heaven involves going through assorted mini-games, tapping their stylus or finger on the touch screen to the beat.

The fun part about Rhythm Heaven is that you won’t be prompted to tap by some flashing icon on the screen. Instead you have to pay attention to the music, created by Tsunku, and keep up the beat on the touch screen.
