Nintendo adds new game line-up to Club Nintendo…

Last month, Nintendo pulled the brilliant move of including downloadable digital releases in the Club Nintendo catalog. As promised, those four titles are long gone, and a new selection has risen to take their place.

First up is the clear winner of the four, with that being The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask. To make the deal even better, you can download the N64 greatness straight to your Wii for just 150 coins.

Dr. Mario fans, you also have a lot to pick from as well. For Wii owners, you can snag up Dr. Mario Online for just 100 coins. If you are looking for a pill to swallow on the go however, Nintendo have also added Dr. Mario Express to the 3DS downloads at 150 coins.

Wrapping things up is the game that started it all. Made for the 3DS Virtual Console, Kirby’s Dream Land is being offered for fans of the pink fluff, and only for 100 coins.

Quite a decent array here, if I do say so myself. Now, to decide between them all (*cough*forgodsakesit’szelda*cough*).

New eShop Update brings lots of Pinball, Kirby, and Hip-Hop

Tuck those quarters away, as this week’s eShop update is ready to save you a ton of coinage on the game of Pinball. After a bit of anticipation, Zen Studio’s Zen Pinball 3Dhas finally hit the eShop at a nice, cozy price of just $6.99. This portable version packs in four classic tables, such as Earth Defense, Shaman, Excalibur, and Eldorado. As you would expect from the pinball gurus, this offering provides players with stunning 3D visuals, online leader boards, and a bevy of other features to keep you coming back for more.

What’s that, more pinball you say? 101 Pinball World is also out for the DSiWare service for just $4.99. As the title states, 101 Pinball World lives up to it’s name and delivers 101 “amazing” tables in 4 unique worlds.

For the rest of this update, I think a good rap is in order.

Run Roo Run out now on the iOS

5th Cell Games known for their Scribblenauts series have released a new game that is essentially the opposite of Scribblenauts but in the best possible way. While Scribblenauts focused on allowing players to practically do anything, their latest offering, Run Roo Run, allows players to do only one thing – Jump.

Such a simple concept, works wonders on the iOS and looks to potentially be the best new iOS release in a long time. The game takes a familiar concept (the one touch control method) places it into a unique environment (Australia), adds a truckload of charm and polishes it to casual gaming perfection.

You can pick up Run Roo Run on the iTunes app store for a mere 99 cents here. Be to pick up the title as well as check out the trailer for Run Roo Run below.

Mole Kart, Out Now – Because the iOS didn’t already have enough embarrassingly pathetic game clones

Why can’t the iOS ever realistically compete with dedicated handhelds? Because a large portion of the games on the iOS are pathetically bad clones of dedicated handheld games. Case in point; Mole Kart.

Mole Kart is a Mario Kart 7 clone for the iOS, one that doesn’t even try to hide to fact that is a clone or that it is incredibly bad. The game retails for $2.99 here and features all tracks ripped straight from Mario Kart 7 but instead of you know, having Mario – it has Moles. Yes, Moles.

If you want to see for yourself how much of a sad clone Mole Kart is, focus your attention to the Mole Kart trailer below this article.

Ultimately Mole Kart is another in a long line of cash in clones that clutter the already overcrowded iOS platform. Be sure to look at the video below. I would love to hear anyone tell me that the iOS should even deserve to be uttered in the same breath as dedicated handhelds when the platform is overloaded with games very much like the shameful Mole Kart.

Code Geass: Akito the Exiled Promo Video Released

Code Geass‘s third season has been taking many twists and turns in terms of development ever since it’s initial announcement, but on Thursday at the Code Geass New Project announcement a 90 second promo video was presented. The promo video was later streamed by Bandai Namco Live TV online for everyone to view.

Initially the promo video is some what of a disappointment. The animation is substandard compared to the animation of the original series, and I find the audio to be embarrassing. Though apart from this many of the characters are revealed and some of the mecha battles look very interesting. All in all, I am even more excited for the new season than ever.

Nothing says Ninja Gaiden 3 like a few unnamed Ninja’s having liters of their blood spilled all over the floor and on Ryu Hayabusa. Today Tecmo Koei revealed a slew of new screenshots which show off exactly that. Ryu Hayabusa slicing into multiple bad guys and being showered in their blood.

For those who would rather take their ninja abilities against fellow players, Tecmo Koei has also released a multiplayer trailer which can be seen below. This footage shows the multiplayer mode where up to eight different players can slaughter one another with a multitude of over the top skills in what looks like an extremely hectic and interesting mode.

Sunrise’s Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion is getting it’s own movie. On Thursday the producer of the Code Geass franchise (Yoshitaka Kawaguchi)   announced the film adaptation to the original series is being planned.

This film adaptation covers the original storyline , thus the film will be following the student Lelouch and his struggles with the Holy Britannian Empire. Both seasons of the original series have won awards at the Tokyo International Anime Fair, the series has also been extended with a third season, which follows alternate characters, called Code Geass: Akito the Exiled.

The producers Kawaguchi and Yukawa described the film adaptation as a ‘dream project’. No release date has been set for this title, but as a Code Geass fan, I say the sooner the better.

Lollipop Chainsaw’s bad guy is a ‘Goth Geek Bastard’ named Swan

When you have a main character so peppy and bright as a cheerleader, it only makes sense that the person who she will be facing off against is the exact opposite of your standard bubbly cheerleader who makes sparkles come out of her chainsaw. That exact opposite turns out to be a man named Swan, a “goth geek bastard” who one day decided he would get revenge on everyone ridiculing him and has turned everyone around him into a zombie in his plan for world domination.

Sound a bit out there? Well check the trailer below for yourself to see this crazy looking guy in action. Warner Bros. is currently aiming to bring Lollipop Chainsaw to North America sometime this year but have not given a smaller release window than that at this point in time.

Heads, among other things, roll in these NeverDead screenshots

We’ve seen many different types of games, but practically every game released so far has always been about keeping your player character whole and intact to complete the objective set for you. But what about when your character is completely immortal? Well then you may as well rip your arm off and beat your enemies to death with it, right?

Such is the case with NeverDead and today Konami has released a slew of new screenshots to help reiterate the fact that nothing says immortality like ripping off your own head. In the screenshots below you can see the immortal Bryce take on various demons as well as a few of his partner Arcadia. NeverDead is set to be released at the end of this month on January 31st on the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
