If you were a kid back in the 1990’s, as I was, you remember Pokemon very well. It was a card game, it was an epic Gameboy game, it was an awesome TV show, it was on your clothes, your school backpack, and it was on your mind 24 hours a day. Remember Diglett, that cute little Pokemon that pops out the ground? Ever wonder what the rest of Diglett, underground,  looked like?

A video about useless Wii peripherals and horrible shovelware games equals comedy gold.

Wow. As a Wii and Xbox 360 owner, this video makes me sad. I love my 360, I love my Wii(sometimes), but this is ridiculous.

If you can afford a Wii, you can afford a 360, so go get one. This has to be one of the worst game downgrades ever. Usually ports are an upgrade. Less zombies, no driving, no camera, horrible graphics, and you can’t even cut people in half with a katana! What the hell is up with that? Did they not want to show that on the Wii, or did they just not take the time to make the animations?

So, missing gameplay features, and not so beautiful graphics; I have to recommend that Wii owners only buy this game if you have the money to blow, and you absolutely don’t want to invest in something worth the money…like an Xbox 360.

Dead Rising: Chop Til You Drop, for the Wii, is out now. Dead Rising for the Xbox 360 is also out now; it has been for more than 2 years. Dead Rising 2 is coming out for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3, but no release date is set yet. Do yourself a favor, and get the Xbox now, so you can play the REAL Dead Rising, and Dead Rising 2 when it comes out.

dsicolorsJust last week, it was announced that the Nintendo DSi will be hitting shelves in the United States and United Kingdom this Spring. The DSi has been out since November 2008 in Japan, and will be available in the UK on April 3rd, and the US on April 5th.

Japan is getting more colors than us! Well, I guess I’m not surprised. They always get more and better than us; seeing how Nintendo is a Japanese company. Japan will be getting a Pink, Lime Green, and Metallic Blue version of the DSi. The US and UK will be getting the black DSi, as well as a blue version. The 3 new colors will be available on March 20th.

Here are three new gameplay videos of Madworld for the Nintendo Wii. This game is riding a lot of hype right now, and it’ll probably be a hit. It’s rare to see so much gore, or blood at all on the Wii. Yes, you do hear the voice of John DiMaggio; the man who plays the voices of Bender in Futurama, and Marcus Phoenix in Gears of War 1 & 2.

Madworld hits shelves in North America on March 10th; in Europe on March 20th. Continue reading to watch two more videos.

Duck Hunt Tattoo

You may remember the Duck Hunt tramp stamp that I posted before. I think this one is much better. It’s not a tramp stamp, but at least it looks good.
