What an understatement. Anyway... Today I wanted to write about the games that are coming out this "holiday" season for the Wii. I put holiday season because I plan on talking about games that were released and are going to be released from October to January.
Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games
I actually think these Mario and Sonic titles (there's only two) are actually lots of fun. These games are meant to play with friends. That's the main reason I get these kinds of games in the first place. I like to play "party" games with my friends and I think this is a great addition to my other "party" titles.
Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles
Ahh... A rails shooter. Not many people like these games. I, however, do. Even though you can't control your movements completely, I still think there is fun to be had in this kind of game. I have the first of this series (meaning this is a sequel) and I enjoy this kind of gameplay.
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
This is the latest title in the Super Mario Bros. franchise. It's another side scrolling adventure that plays just like the original Super Mario Bros. All you need are two buttons: One to jump and one to dash/ throw fireballs! Back to classics, baby! I simply cannot wait for this game to drop. I am almost drooling watching some of these videos online!
Pokémon Rumble
In this game, you actually control your Pokémon and battle other Pokémon in a way completely different than in the handheld games. Despite the graphics, this looks like a pretty fun game. I can't wait to get my hands on this title.
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars
A true 2-D fighter for the Wii! This is all I have for now. The Wii doesn't have Street Fighter 4 or Marvel vs. Capcom, unfortunately. This is a welcome addition to the versus titles though. Seeing as how this is only a Wii exculsive, I am very excited in what Capcom has done with this game. It looks absolutely fantastic and I think Capcom knows exactly what they are doing.
Alright then folks, like always... Thanks for reading/watching! PEACE!!!

GO GO GO GO GO GO!!!!!
I CAN'T WAIT!!!!
Oh! I have also been finished with my finals since Tuesday so I have just been chillin'. Sunday is when I get back to Houston so look forward to that!
That's right. 20 years ago on April 21, the Nintendo Gameboy was released in Japan. It was later released in North America in August... What a wonderful gaming system. It was just so awesome! I wish I still had mine... I had a solid black one. That obviously means I didn't get one right away. I waited for a while. I remember when I had it, though I thought, "Wow... A video game.. In my hands! I mean it's RIGHT HERE!" My first game was Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins. It was GREAT! I must have been in 2nd or 3rd grade... I remember I soon got Pokémon Blue for it. That then helped fuel my Pokémon obsession. Nintendo sure does know what they are doing when it comes to their handheld systems. I can't believe the Gameboy is 20 years old today! That's how old I'm gonna be in a couple of months! Wow! 2 decades... It's all just so amazing...
I got Pokémon Platinum! YAY! The latest version of Pokémon is out and I snatched it up as SOON as it hit the streets! I must say... Even though it's pretty much the same as most of the other installations, it's definitely the best one so far. The battle dynamic is a lot smoother, the diversity of which Pokémon you can catch and use is very nice, and the replay ability is definitely there in full force!
Platinum's story basically plays out just like Diamond and Pearl's story with just a few tweaks. The most appealing new feature in this version is the addition is the battle frontier. This is a place where trainers can really step up and test their true strength and abilities. I REALLY want to try my best and become a strong trainer instead of just a collector. Hopefully I'll conquer the Battle Frontier in here!
That's pretty much all I have to say tonight because I want to get back to playing my game! Thanks for reading! PEACE!!!
