Adventure, Gamer Thoughts 5

When people hear “platformer” and “Nintendo,” they usually think about Mario. It’s little wonder, since Mario is the most iconic Nintendo character and one of the most recognizable video games characters overall. Mario platformers have appeared on every Nintendo system. However, the 3DS also has some excellent non-Mario platformers, too. If you’re looking for 3D platformers, you’re pretty much limited to Rayman 3D. Even the resurgence of 3D platformers hasn’t hit the 3DS yet. On the other hand, you can find 2D platformers in abundance. First up, Gunman Clive and its sequel Gunman Clive 2 are two sidescrolling action platformers similar to Mega ... »

Reviewed: Metroid Prime Federation Force

Adventure, Multiplayer, Review 1

  Personally, I am a fan of the Metroid Prime series, and I was waiting impatiently to get the new Metroid Prime Federation Force last week. I might have been the first to get to the store to pick my copy. Now I have completed all missions; I’ll share with you some of what I’ve learned and some tricks. The Story I am not giving up much detail to avoid spoiling the game for you. In the Metroid Prime world, this is one of the most engaging stories released until now. 22 missions were enough to keep me entertained for a while. It is consistent with Samus’ storyline, but if you are not familiar with the original game, you can still enjoy the story. There are some differences if you play sol... »

Super Mario Run is now coming to iOS Devices

Gamer Thoughts 1

Nintendo finally realizes that it has to go with the mobile wave. The first game made by Nintendo for iOS is Super Mario Run. It had to be Mario, Nintendo’s star, the one to open up the market for mobiles. It was all a pleasant surprise. There are some interesting features to improve playability and the game is made from the ground up with mobile device hardware and control in mind. It is true that this is not the first Nintendo game going to mobile devices. Pokémon did it first, but Nintendo did not develop it. However, Nintendo has supported Pokémon all the way. Also, Pokémon’s success has proved how important it is for games to go mobile and create brand awareness. Miitomo is an app by Ni... »

The 10 Best Super Mario Power-Ups

The 10 Best Super Mario Power-Ups

Adventure, Gamer Thoughts 3

Mario Bros is a never ending classic full of memorable platforming and likeable characters. The first power-ups of all time to gain pop-culture status were conceived by Nintendo. Since the first Mario more than 20 years ago, there was a Super Mushroom, and it has become a symbol for Mario’s world. Nobody can imagine a Mario World without power-ups. In each new game, new powers appear. By now there is a pool of powers, and depending on your personal style to play, some might be more useful than others. At times, some power-ups are not desirable, like the Mini Mushroom that makes you small to be able to get into a tiny space, but also makes all your enemies bigger, which will make it easier fo... »
