In case that means anything to you.

Donate if you can. By the way, I have nothing to do with the actual marathon.

The European teaser site was launched yesterday. The release date I mentioned earlier is now confirmed. Considering the last 2 games had big delays, I’m VERY happy with Nintendo of Europe concerning this game.

NOTE: I’m getting an Xbox for Christmas, and have a method to capture X360 footage with the capture card I’m getting. So, if it works, I will be uploading some game footage (duh). I WILL definitely be capturing footage from Banjo Kazooie (XBLA version), and Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts. And Banjo Tooie (XBLA version) when that is released.

The UK website for Nintendo states that Animal Crossing will be released on the 5th December this year. The Wii Speak will launch simultaneously and will be sold seperately.

I’ll be getting both… for christmas.

The new issue of the Offical Nintendo Magazine in the UK (out Friday 24th October) has revealed 4 other titles which will be ported over to the Wii, as a part of the “Play it on Wii” range.

These titles are Chibi-Robo, Mario Tennis and Metroid Prime 1 + 2, making there a total of 6 confirmed games available in the Play it on Wii range.

A new trailer from the Tokyo Game Show has been released for the new installment in the Kingdom Hearts series, 358/2 days.

Embedding the trailer doesn’t work, for some reason.

The site for the upcoming game, Animal Crossing: Let’s go to the City (US get the not as cheesy name of “City Folk”), has been launched recently. It has a new trailer for the game and some new information that I didn’t know previously.

In the city, as well as being able to bid in auctions and do your normal shopping, you can go to concerts (K.K Slider, I assume) and more.

The realtime chat feature is still mentioned in the communication part of the site.

Here’s the brief description of the game, quoted from the site.

Welcome to Animal Crossing™: City Folk, where you can customize your town, your house, and yourself!

Step into a living, breathing world where days and seasons pass in real time and your destiny is yours to create.

Try your luck in a Fishing Tourney or Bug Off; deck out your home with the latest decor; enjoy a relaxing Mii™ makeover at Shampoodle; saunter into the city, and more! Appreciate classic activities or discover the game’s new features.

You choose the pace and you create the adventures!

Here’s the site.

Since I haven’t made a post in a while, I thought I’d post a RRR: TV party video.

Sorry about the lack of posts on this blog. School and other things have been keeping me very busy.

I hope to get more stuff on the site soon. I now have Strong Bad Ep 2 and Super Mario World.
