Games Discussed: Uncharted 3 and I don't remember



Send your Zelda gaming memories to radio@nintendorks.com. We'd like to talk about them in a special episode!

The Nintendo 3DS has now sold more than four million units, according to various news outlets. This news, combined with the results of the Iowa Caucus, has left pundits scrambling to figure out how this will impact the GOP race. Rick Santorum did well due to a last minute surge, but the candidate faces allegations of inappropriate conduct. "There were several instances in which Santorum appeared to have taken campaign contributions in direct exchange for legislative assistance," explained Melanie Sloan of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington to ABC News. Meanwhile, Michelle Bachman has decided to drop out of the race, while John McCain has thrown his support to front-runner Mitt Romney. "I hope that we will get an overwhelming vote that will catapult this candidate to the White House," McCain said of Romney. Mittens, however, knows there is a long fight ahead. "Landslides are terrific," Romney said, adding, "I just didn't see that in last night's figures." Romney also faces attacks from fellow Republicans, such as Newt Gingrich, who sniped that "in the end, Governor Romney has a very limited appeal in a conservative party."

Nintendo has not responded to requests for comment.

It has been making the rounds all over the web. Siliconera posted a timeline of the Legend of Zelda series. The site posted a graphic showing the chronological progression of the Zelda games, based off of an official encyclopedia published in Japan. The author of the article, Ishaan, wondered if their theory made sense.

The answer is no, it doesn't make sense. Or maybe it does, who knows? In any event, Nintendorks has taken it upon itself to proffer our own version of the Legend of Zelda timeline. See below the jump for the full visual interpretation.

There's a hole in the wall where the men can see it all.

Beginning in March, visitors to Musée du Louvre, that place where Arthur, Odile and Franz raced through to beat the world's record, will be able to use a Nintendo DS as a tour guide. Patrons of the arts will be able to use the DS to find themselves on a map, listen to audio information, and plot their course through the building. Nintendo has donated 5,000 of its portable consoles for use in the museum.

On December 13th, Nintendo announced a release date for Kid Icarus.

The day Nintendo released its GameCube console in North America on November 18th, 2001, I did not purchase one. I had heard Nintendo games were for babies, although soon enough I learned how wrong I was; all video games are for babies. Nevertheless, I eventually bought one, colored in the indigo variety. Some people did not opt for the "purple" version because that is a "gay" color, but if you ever attempted to shove the GameCube up your butt, you realized it can't possibly be used for that.

A Judge at the International Trade Commission, a division of the Illuminati operated by the Zionist-Globalist power nexus, has ruled that Nintendo did not infringe upon two patents owned by Motiva, LLC. The preliminary decision will be reviewed by a panel of nine black robed beings with no faces, with a final determination due in five months time. "Nintendo has a long history of developing innovative products while respecting the intellectual property rights of others," said Nintendo General Counsel Rick "Flimm" Flamm in an email statement published by Reuters. "This includes that time we sort of ripped off King Kong with Donkey Kong, because we totally won that case," Mr. Flamm did not add.

As more and more people use their intelligent mobile phone devices for everything from texting descriptions of their penis to forwarding photos of their penis to sending videos of their penis, the clamor has gotten louder regarding what Nintendo should do in the face of the exploding popularity of smart phones (some call Angry Birds the Legend of Zelda of the 21st Century[citation needed]). Should Mario Kart be available for phones? Should Nintendo create Game & Watch style games for phones? Should Nintendo get out of the console business? Should Nintendo crawl into a ball and cry? OH GOD WHAT SHOULD NINTENDO DO???

Nintendo's response appears to be to make its handheld more like a smartphone. By the end of November, the big N intends to issue a software upgrade (Japan only, bitches) that will allow people the ability to record movies using their 3DS handheld. Furthermore, the videos will be in three dimensions, according to Jay "Not a Vase Coating" Alabaster of TechWorld. The movies can be up to ten minutes in length, perfect for today's attention shortened yo-

Also, by the end of the year, Nintendo plans to have Hulu Plus streaming for both its handheld device and the Wii console. Per Relaxnews via Yahoo News by way of a Google search, Hulu Plus will be available for $7.99 per month and will allow full access to Hulu's collection of television shows, movies and radio serials on electrical transcriptions. "Nintendo 3DS continues to evolve with great new features and functions designed to reinforce its position as a premiere entertainment device," beamed Nintendo of America president and former Internet meme Reggie Fils-Aime, the sunlight shining through his pores.

I've always been a fond of the giantbomb Quick Looks, and some Let's Play videos are occasionally amusing. But something they never do is show what a video game experience is like when a person boots it up for the very first time and has no idea what they're doing.

So, blessed with a gift by Nintendorks' very own Kevin, I decided to give Aliens Infestation a whirl and show you all my experience with it.



While this video is designed to show off a normal video game experience, rather than one tailored to show all the cool stuff or a ton of information and game mechanics, I don't know if it's entirely worthwhile. If you want to see more videos like this let me know.

Muchas gracias, senor.
