  • Aura-Aura Climber (DSiWare: Nintendo, 200 DSi Points)
  • Learning with the Pooyoos Episode 3 (WiiWare: LEXIS NUMERIQUE, 500 Wii Points)
  • Gods vs Humans (WiiWare: ZALLAG, 1500 Wii Points)
  • Petz Dog Superstar (DSiWare: Ubisoft, 800 DSi Points)
  • Petz Cat Superstar (DSiWare: Ubisoft, 800 Wii Points)

Not many games this week, although it’s not surprising with Nintendo’s busy week what with the Nintendo press conference in Japan and plummiting stocks and shares. This weeks notable release would be Aura-Aura Climber, published by Nintendo which looks interesting. It’s only 200 DSi Points, so some of you may want to check that out. Other than that, two WiiWare titles and two ‘Petz’ games for DSiWare. The ‘Petz’ games offer either dog or cat variations, pleasing both dog and cat lovers.

Gears of War 3 delayed to holiday 2011

So as you have probably guessed from the headline, the release of long awaited Gears of War 3 has been pushed from its April 5th, 2011 all the way to holiday 2011.  For those of you who don’t like figuring out the math for how many months later that is, it is 8 months delayed, now being over a year away.  Unfortunately, we should all have seen this coming as this same scenario played out last year.  Many of the holiday releases were pushed back into the spring and some even into the summer and now it looks like this process is starting again.

As quoted from Microsoft, “”The teams at Microsoft Game Studios and Epic Games have done great work thus far readying the title for release in the Spring of 2011…However, we’ve elected to move the launch of Gears of War 3 until Fall 2011 to make it the marquee title for the holiday season.”  I’m sure some/most of you are saddened by this news, but worry not!  To cheer you up, go watch this silly video of two japanese guys (one playing and the other simply aiding in commentary) playing tag with a 1up in Super Mario 64.  😛

Outland, Ubisoft’s new downloadable game, may be outlandish, but its got style.  And style is awesome. Just ask us, and we will tell you how awesome it is.  Housemarque, creators of Stardust HD, are developing this eye catching game, and it is slated to be released in 2011 on Xbox 360 and PS3.  One man must stand against Balance and Chaos. He must use both the powers of light and dark to save the world, or doom it.  Taking inspiration from Prince of Persia and Assassin’s Creed, players must master the deadly traps of the world.  Featuring a soundtrack from Ari Pulkkinen, this game looks pretty darn awesome. You know awesome when you see it.

16-bit ALU in minecraft

Sure, you can build giant castles in Minecraft. You can even build a 1:1 replica of the enterprise from Star Trek. But I bet you didn’t think you could build a 16-bit ALU that can do basic math in binary.

Check out the video below to see it for yourself.
I’m not going to spend my time translating his explanation of what he did, just watch it. If you understand what he is talking about, then you can join me an AWE.

Scott Pilgrim Upcoming DLC and Patch Details

Ubisoft announced at its 2010 Digital Day event yesterday that DLC is coming soon for Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game. In November actually,  to supposedly coincide with the film’s release on DVD and Blu-ray. The DLC content will include a new playable character, Knives Chau. There are also two new modes included, which is a free-for-all arena battle with weapons and dodgeball. The current set price for this DLC will be 160MSP or $1.99 on PSN.

Coinciding with the DLC a patch will be released to address difficulty balancing, clean out several bugs and introduce drop-in/drop-out co-op. Sadly the drop-in/drop-out co-op is still only for offline play. Ubisoft currently has no plans of releasing Online Co-op for this beat-em-up title.

Japanese Okamiden Commercial Has Tons of Cuteness

The Japanese Okamiden Commercial is really cute. Cute Girl, Cute Puppy, and some gameplay footage thrown in as well.

Sure the entire 15 minutes is just gibberish to anyone who doesn’t know the language, but I’m sure you can appreciate what they are trying to pull off. With this one commercial, they are targeting both the females and the male consumers… Man those Japanese are smart!
