We got some really cool DSiWare, WiiWare and Virtual Console games available for download this week on the Nintendo Store.  Get your Wii points ready.  FINAL Fight 3 is out on the Virtual Console along withe Digital Leisure’s Fast Draw.

Nintendo DSiWare

Trajectile
Publisher: Nintendo, Players: 1, ESRB Rating: E (Everyone), Price: 500 Nintendo DSi Points™

Description: Trajectile is a puzzle game that’s as much about firepower as it is about brainpower, requiring you to line up your shot and launch a flurry of missiles at enemy targets. Three types of missiles are at your disposal, each one with its own characteristics – but all of them can bounce off walls on their path to smash, blast or drill through enemies and blocks. Along the way, you’ll find item blocks just waiting to be destroyed so that you can obtain special power-ups … and cause even more destruction. Be careful though, as missile type and position are predetermined and you get only a limited number of launches per stage. Complete multiple classes containing numerous individual stages, earning medals when you clear stages in fewer than the given number of turns. Are you ready to take aim at becoming a Trajectile master?

Animal Puzzle Adventure
Publisher: Aksys Games, Players: 1, ESRB Rating: E10+ (Everyone 10 and Older) – Mild Suggestive Themes, Price: 500 Nintendo DSi Points

Description: Animal Puzzle Adventure is a simple puzzle game where you have to lead various animals to their respective barns placed on the map, while avoiding pitfalls and cliffs and using the objects on the field to your advantage. There are 10 stages per level with a total of five levels, creating 50 stages in all. After clearing a stage, you unlock a piece of a photo. Once you clear all 10 stages in a level, the wallpaper for that level becomes unlocked and you can then view it in the gallery. With so many puzzles to unravel, you’ll find yourself immersed in the puzzle-riffic world of Animal Puzzle Adventure.

Hell’s Kitchen Vs.
Publisher: Ludia, Players: 1-2, ESRB Rating: E (Everyone), Price: 800 Nintendo DSi Points

Description: Hell’s Kitchen Vs. is based on the U.S. TV phenomenon where world-renowned chef Gordon Ramsay puts aspiring chefs through rigorous culinary tests. The game recreates the show’s pressure-cooker atmosphere as two players battle head-to-head in an arcade-style kitchen challenge. Try to conquer your opponent in each time-management test, while taking the heat of Gordon Ramsay judging and rating your performance at every stage of the game.

WiiWare

Heron: Steam Machine
Publisher: Triangle Studios, Players: 1-4, ESRB Rating: E (Everyone), Price: 500 Wii Points™

Description: Heron: Steam Machine is a game about a factory where rubber duckies are being produced by a large steam engine. On this steam engine, there are four different gauges which you will have to watch carefully. By connecting the pipes, you will earn points and relieve some of the pressure, keeping the machine running just a little bit longer. If one of the gauges reaches its maximum, the machine will eventually blow up, and the game is over. If you were lucky enough to achieve a high score, make sure you enter your name in the list so other players can compete with you. In Multiplayer, you are able to cooperate with friends in maintaining the steam machine. When you play with two, three or four players, the screen is divided into sections with different background colors. Each player is able to solve his or her own part of the puzzle. Players are restricted to their own section of the screen, so you will have to work together to make the pipes fit properly. (Additional accessories are required for multiplayer play and are sold separately.)
Pub Darts
Publisher: Big Blue Bubble Inc., Players: 1-4, ESRB Rating: E (Everyone) – Alcohol Reference, Price: 500 Wii Points
Description: Pub Darts is a simple darts simulation which uses the Wii Remote™ controller’s unique controls to mimic dart-throwing motion. The game is set in a local pub where the players will settle in to play some of their favorite dart games, including 501, Cricket, Around the Clock, Killers and Baseball. Controls function just like throwing a real dart. Players are able to create their own personal profiles, including selecting their avatar image from a collection of creative characters and the design they would like displayed on the dart flights.
Fast Draw Showdown
Publisher: Digital Leisure Inc., Players: 1-2, ESRB Rating: T (Teen) – Alcohol Reference, Violence, Price: 500 Wii Points
Description: When it comes to fast draw there’re only two types of people: the quick … and the dead! Now you have the chance to find out where you stand, or lie, as the case may be. You’ll go up against the best quick draws in the business, including one of the world’s fastest, Wes Flowers. Unholster your Wii Remote controller and show ’em who the fastest draw really is, in this live-action shooter. You can even take on a friend in multiplayer modes, and see which of you has the quickest draw. You’ll need some serious speed and awesome accuracy to take on these gunslingers … so get ready for some real fast draw action.

Virtual Console

The government of Metro City is at a complete loss. Metro City’s mayor, Mike Haggar, and Guy are prepared to take on the new gang, but before they can act, the door bursts open, revealing Lucia, Cody’s old friend. “Metro City is under attack!” she shouts, “Skull Cross is loose, and they’ve got something up their sleeves.” But before any of them can move, a mysterious man appears in the doorway. “My name is Dean,” he says. “I know Skull Cross inside-and-out, and I hate them more than anything. I can help you, and you can help me. We must go!” All four fighters vow to bring Skull Cross down. It will be a tough assignment, and may even be their final fight!

2010 is off to a GREAT START !! the first week of the new year has two of the year’s biggest releases: Bayonetta & Darksiders.

Platinum Games are proud to introduce to the world beautiful Bayonetta, a witch who awakens after a long 500 year slumber to find herself with no memory of who she is, stuck in fictional European city of which she has no clue how she got there.  Bayonetta is due out to in Australia on the 6th.  As mentioned previously Bayonetta has a very cool collectors edition entitled The Climax Edition, which comes with a replica pistol from the game and an art book.

Darksiders-01

THQ’s Darksiders on the other hand is a bit on the darker side and is set on Earth 100 years after the Apocalypse where the protagonist War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, sets off to find out why the destruction was brought forward. Gameplay was developed by Vigil Games, and the ever popular comic book artist Joe Madureira is responsible for the game’s beautifully grotesque art direction. Keep an eye out for Darksiders when it releases this Thursday.

Cool Halloween Street Fighter Costumes !!

Now I know we’ve just started a new year but that shouldn’t stop us from already preparing for Halloween. 

A fan of Capsule Computers pointed out these really cool Capcom Street Fighter costumes available online from Halloween Express.  I have included a link to all of the Street Fighter costumes they have available (check out the images below). 

The Akuma one is new to me.  Normally we only see Ken, Ryu and the amazingly HOT Chun-Li.  But the Akuma one is one I’d consider buying as it looks like it comes with the Flaming red hair.

Check them out and the Halloween Express for many other Halloween idea’s they have a Huge range of other outfits/costumes.

Project Natal meet EMG Sensor Technology

1

We all know about Project Natal right ?? The amazing camera motion capture control style system that everyone go so excited about in 2009.  Well looks like Microsoft are 1up’ing themselves.

Microsoft Research has patented an EMG technology that will sense a person’s hand motion down to the smallest gesture (imagine being able to pick your nose in a video game and flick.. ok ok i’ll shut up)

The Video below explains everything you need to know, in a nutshell you put little wire connectors on your arm and they scan your muscle movement in your hand and then transfer the data to whatever you are trying to control.

It’s still a long way away before we can all play with this in the comfort of our own living rooms, but it looks very promising.  Microsoft is also developing a wireless EMG sensor module that can be placed over the entire body.  Now imagine the endless possibilities with a total EMG suit.  Sounds very futuristic !! Everyone suiting up for a game of HALO !! BAGS being MASTERCHIEF !! 😉

Enjoy the video let us know what you think of it.
