The Future of the Nintendo Legacy

Nintendo has been around for a long time; since September 23, 1889, when it was founded as Nintendo Koppai. This company has existed for a much longer period than what is commonly considered their competition. Sony, a fellow Japanese company, was started in 1946, and Mircosoft has only been around since 1975. You could easily look at these much younger companies and applaud them for all they have been able to accomplish is a shorter time, but it is Nintendo’s humbleness that sets them apart from so many other companies and is one of the things that I believe will keep Nintendo around for generations to come. Nintendo has been successful in bringing joy to people’s lives and creating its own unique culture. Nintendo is more than just a company and it has a legacy.

The World Ends With You Sequel!?

 

Tetsuya Nomura was one of the artists on the original game. He was recently interviewed by a magazine called Nintendo Dream where he mentioned a few new things about the upcoming Kingdom Hearts game for 3ds and the possibility of a sequel for TWEWY.

Pokemon Black and White Version 2

 

 Not much has been announced so far but we do know that it’s going to be a Nintendo DS game not 3ds. The strange thing is instead of releasing a new color like usual, (platinum, emerald, yellow) Nintendo is releasing secondary versions of each color. Personally I would have preferred the next game in the series at least have a 3ds version as well not just be backwards compatible. Either way though I’m always excited for new Pokemon games and hopefully this installment will take the best Pokemon game engine so far and perfect it. 

XSeed does what Nintendon’t

The Last Story is Coming to the States

I have been proven wrong yet again. In a move that I was not expecting but elatedly welcome, XSeed is taking the risk of bringing what I have heard multiple times is the best JRPG of this gaming generation. The Last Story looks great and I look forward to playing this in the Summer.
Thank you XSeed, can it come with a copy of Game Center CX 2 with pre-order copies?
