Street Fighter producer Yoshinori Ono says that when the spectacularly popular Street Fighter IV comes to Nintendo’s 3DS portable it will be a “perfect port” of the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of the game.

That being said, he did create a nice cover. Role-playing game Chrono Trigger was originally released on the Super Nintendo…
Looks like somebody at Nintendo HQ has been looking at the way Halo is marketed and thought, yes, that’ll work for Metroid, too. Hence we have this live-action Metroid commercial for upcoming Metroid: Other M, heavy on moody music and even heavier on the moody slow-motion.

I think it’s the highest praise you can heap on a Wii game, at least in terms of its appearance, when you can say it doesn’t look like a Wii game.
