Wii Ware sounds good, but there’s a reason I’m pretty much only interested in Dr. Mario at this point. Let’s get some classic games going! It feels like it’s been far longer than 2 weeks, but we’re back with the new VC release of the week! This week, we’re getting…Sky Kid? […]
On Monday, I went to download my first game from the newly launched Wii Ware line of games. For those unaware, these are original downloadable titles for the Wii rather than the re-released retro titles on the virtual console.
Imagine my surprise when I received a notification that my entire Wii hard drive was full! It […]

When it comes to video games, I tend towards the optimistic. I try to look upward and onward, focusing on the classics of the last twenty five years and the magnificent future. I work hard to keep my eyes on the prize, scanning the horizon for the perfect game.
