Mario Kart Wii owners have a new tournament to look forward to starting July 1st. This tournament takes place in Coconut Mall and the objective is to collect the coins. I’ve only participated in one tournament so far, so I just might have to check this one out.
Oh man, I had some good time with the Smash Bros. DOJO site. I would stay up until the update and either jump for joy at the revealed news or stare at the screen in utter disappointment at a horrible update. Well, since it closed and the game was released, the site stopped updating. It was a sad moment, but one that we knew had to come sooner or later. Well, Europe just saw their release of Brawl yesterday, and the DOJO was updated with something. It’s nothing big, but hey, it’s another update. You can check out Snapshots Galore #3 here.
The guy who originally posted up the scans for Sonic Unleashed sent in some more scans from the current issue of Nintendo Power. A big thanks to MAR10 for taking the scans and sending them in!

NINTENDO’S WARIO, KIRBY BRING THE FUN; SLEUTHS GET A NEW MYSTERY CASE FILES GAMENew Experiences on the Way for Wii and Nintendo DS
REDMOND, Wash., June 25, 2008 – While the game world awaits the E3 Media & Business Summit in Los Angeles next month, Nintendo isn’t waiting to announce new titles for its mushrooming libraries for the Wii™ console and Nintendo DS™. Classic Nintendo characters like bad-boy Wario™ and pink powerhouse Kirby® will star in their own platform games. A new Mystery Case Files™ game brings the best-selling Big Fish Games franchise to Nintendo DS for the first time. These games join the recently announced Mario™ Super Sluggers baseball game for the Wii console.
“Nintendo’s game libraries continue to grow at a rapid pace,” said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. “Wario stars in a great new platformer, Kirby enthusiasts get an updated version of a fan favorite, there’s a new mystery for Mystery Case Files aficionados and baseball gets a few new Mario-style twists.”
Wario Land™: Shake It!, a classic side-scroller for the Wii console launching Sept. 29, stars Wario, the smelly, bad-mannered alter ego of Mario™. With the Wii Remote™ controller turned sideways like an old-school controller, veterans and newcomers alike can run, jump and smash their way through hectic side-scrolling stages. Players shake the Wii Remote to help Wario take down his enemies, empty bags of treasure or cause earthquakes. Best of all, there are numerous stages each offering multiple missions to keep players coming back again and again to unlock everything, collect more coins or just improve their best times.
Kirby Super Star™ Ultra for Nintendo DS, launching Sept. 29, re-imagines one of the most beloved Kirby games of all time. Kirby Super Star Ultra features new graphics and fully rendered animated cut scenes. With so many adventures waiting to be unlocked, there will never be a dull moment as Kirby runs, floats, copies enemies and uses Helpers to fight King Dedede and Meta Knight. New modes like Revenge of the King and Meta Knight Ultra await, along with classics like The Great Cave Offensive and Milky Way Wishes. On top of the main modes, there are also three new touch-screen-controlled mini-games that can be played with up to three friends via DS Download Play. Not only that, but players can go on Kirby adventures with a friend via local wireless as well.
Mystery Case Files™: MillionHeir™, launching Sept. 8, uses the unique Nintendo DS interface to expand upon the seek-and-solve game play of the popular series from Big Fish Games. Players seek out cleverly hidden items in a multitude of painted scenes. Players progress through an interactive detective story investigating a cast of characters and uncovering new evidence to find the rightful heir to a million-dollar fortune. This new portable installment is available only for Nintendo DS. With interactive logic puzzles that use both the touch-screen interface and built-in microphone and include the first ever multiplayer mode for a Mystery Case Files game, Mystery Case Files: MillionHeir presents a new generation of seek-and-solve games for casual gamers and franchise fans.
Mario™ Super Sluggers, launching Aug. 25 for the Wii console, stars the ever-lovable Mario and his crew of friends. It builds on the social-gaming fun and movements people learned in Wii Sports™ and turns them into a full-fledged baseball game that can be played by every member of the household. Players make a throwing motion with the Wii Remote controller to pitch the baseball and make a swinging motion to swing at the pitch. The game boasts more than 30 playable Nintendo characters and all the madness of a Mario sports game. Just like Mario Kart® Wii, it bridges the gap between experienced players and those new to the Wii console, with fun challenges and beautiful graphics.

Guitar Hero: On Tour is out in stores now (and I don’t have it yet, *cry*) and people are enjoying the 25 songs it has to offer. Well, JoeAdvanced on GameFAQs discovered that the credits list 26 songs, with the extra song being “I Am Not Your Gameboy” by Freezepop. Nobody has yet to find that in the game, so it is possible that it was removed. As far as I know, Freezepop songs are only in Rock Band games because of some deal. I did hear rumors of this song being in a demo that some people played a while back though, and since Rock the Night by Europe isn’t in the game either (it’s on the official site), I assume it was just taken out. Check the link out below to see a blurry picture of the credits.
Wow…. like seriously, wow… that’s all I can say at this point after reading IGN’s preview of Guitar Hero: World Tour (it’s Guitar Hero IV for those that don’t know). I’ll give you a brief taste of what IGN reveals below, but you’ll have to click the link at the end to read the full details. And you can check out a picture of the new guitar above.
Before today, I was considering getting this game. As of now, I hereby declare that I WILL buy this game FOR SURE. I’ll probably end up getting the game/guitar package at first and later buying the other instruments. Man, with this and Guitar Hero: On Tour, the Guitar Hero series is slowly rising to be one of my favorite series of all time. October can not come soon enough!
High Voltage has released more info about the upcoming Wii exclusive FPS.
UPDATE: I apologize to everyone who could not view the pictures. It should work fine now. Turns out this is the manual to the game too, but I’m sure the manual will have more info, especially on multi player.
High Voltage hooked up Nintendo Wii Fanboy with 4 exclusive new screenshots of The Conduit…lucky…

From the people who brought you Ace Combat, Sky Crawlers is a Wii exclusive title, and judging by the scans, it looks to be similar to the Ace Combat series in gameplay, and it should also have some unique motion controls.
