    "Shantae: Risky's Revenge"

    I heard of the original, which is supposed to be really good, but near impossible to find these days (at a reasonable price). This sounds like very good news.
    ...
    Also it sounds like I need to get a DSi...

    Maybe Nintendo will introduce GB/GBA Virtual Console titles in the new year (they haven't yet, right?).

    The issue I have with this statement is that much like the PS2, you would have to be a blind idiot to not be able to find at least 200+ great Nintendo DS games now. It had a slow start for about six months after launch. And that was..how many years ago again?

    If you want your RPG's, you own a DS.

    If you want the system SE puts the bulk of it's efforts towards, you own a DS.

    If you want a system that no matter what game type your intrested in, there's something for you, you own a DS.

    @Foxstar is in love with Kotaku's two Brians.: seconded! 2009 was/is already an amazing game for DS games. As far as I'm concerned, all they have to do is keep the momentum going until the DS2 is eventually released.

    Picross 3D has been out here for quite a while, it is AWESOME.

    DQ9 is BORING.

    Golden Sun looks INTERESTING.

    I gotta warn you AJ, the Captain N DVDs are quite possibly worse. Nostalgia definitely makes that one seem better then it is.

    But here's my suggestion; pick up the Super Mario Bros 3 DVDs as well as Captain N ones. After watching the atrocity that is SMB3 the good Cap'N, as well as Zelda, seem positively delightful! :)

    Oh nostalgia... why am I so very much your bitch?

    It amuses me that the Zelda and Dragon's Lair articles have pictures with the exact same background colour. Very colour co-ordinated of you AJ.

    This is excellent news, not for me, because I have them all on DVD, but for all the children who are less fortunate than I.

    I applaud Hulu for adding more fine art to their selection.

    Japan gets cool stuff since it's Nintendo's homeland, and Europe gets cool stuff (Zelda beach towel!) because they get shafted on everything else. I have five hundred coins I need to use, but I think I'll save up just a bit more for Mario bookends or something.

    No Tiger Woods game? C'mon! What if Madden came out and told everyone he was a closet furry? Would they stop making Madden games? Didn't think so!

    This game continues to preserve the sexy. This is the only game on the horizon that will have me switch on my Wii and actually play it for the first time in over 6 months. It's looking amazing!
