Wow, CBS finally fucked with gamefaqs.  Dragged them into the 20th century.  Don't like it.

Speaking of handheld games ... Y CANT ZELDA JUMP?  srlsly?

But he does jump in that game.

He does?  I don't think I got the item for it yet.

I'm so useless I can't even find the key to the first dungeon.  Old Zelda games are so oblique.

Forgot to mention, I completed Arkham City on Friday. Good game, mostly - too un-evolved for my liking, I don't see how this is going to be a viable franchise with 3, even 4 of these similar games out soon. There was a brief glimpse of hope near the end when they threw different enemies into the ring at the same time. That mixed things up a bit. Quite funny how many big characters they kill off in the game considering how hard the comic book companies try to keep everyone live and kicking. At the end, shouldn't batman have carried T out instead of J? Jerk.

It's not really newsy enough to call news but check this out. NECA has announced that they will be releasing a new Jason Voorhees action figure based on the infamous (and shitty) "Friday the 13th" NES game, and will debut it at San Diego Comic Con (the event that has completely and irreparably destroyed geek culture).

Arkham, one of the producers/marketing dudes working on a launch game - who initially blasted the Wii U from a technical point of view - posted this in the GPU thread:

Glad to see I mellowed out
But yes looking back I did come off a bit doom and gloom about he reality.
But that is because honestly we all expected more.
So when we got the first kits our TD was literally like "WTF is this?"
Because until then we were expecting it to be significantly more powerful than the HD twins and that we would have plenty of room for making a quick and enhanced port of our game. So when they saw the hardware they all kind were thrown threw a loop.


Now that time has passed and sober minds have ad time to play with the hardware I imagine they have warmed up to it a bit. Though until the user base grows I wouldn't expect too much from my old team

Here is hoping Nintendo's E3 offerings light things on fire and get some WiiUs moving!

Does Nintendo sell these online? I need to get a pair for my girlfriend...

another normal day in Tokyo:
