Super-Smash-Bros-Melee

Masahiro Sakurai tweeted that a trailer for a new Super Smash Bros. will be shown during Nintendo's E3 Nintendo Direct. During which Nintendo also sent confirmation to Official Nintendo Magazine that there will be two versions of the game, one for the Wii U and one for the 3DS.

This is big news, especially for me, since Super Smash Bros. Melee was the reason that I chose a GameCube over a PS2 back in the day and Super Smash Bros. Brawl being the main reason why I got a Wii. I spent over 800 hours in Melee and enjoyed Brawl quite a bit. I've been looking for a solid reason to even consider getting either a 3DS or a Wii U. So far, the games I want for those both platforms are Project x Zone for the 3DS and Bayonetta 2 for the Wii U. This new Super Smash Bros. might just seal the deal.

Sonic Lost Worlds Debut Trailer

Sonic Lost WorldsSega has got a new Sonic game lined up but this time it's exclusive to Nintendo. Namely the Wii U and 3DS.

You see a group of what looks like late 90s Saturday morning cartoon monsters terrorizing some Loony Toons looking chickens when Sonic appears out of the sky to save them. From the gameplay, Sonic Lost Worlds looks like it follow the formula of 2D segments mixed with 3D segments much like in Sonic Unleashed, Sonic Colors and Sonic Generations. That and the stage shown in the game looks to be inspired by the unreleased Sonic Xtreme with it's broken up, blocky and tube like tracks. Hey, they might include a fish-eye lens view in the options menu. And since this is going to be a Nintendo exclusive, we might see Mario as a playable character?

Scribblenauts_UnmaskedMax teams up with the DC Universe's most famous heroes to save the world in Scribblenauts Unmasked.

Totally was not expecting this. And with me currently having an Injustice fever and having just finished watching Young Justice, my DC nerdgasm is at an all time high. Scribblenauts Unmasked is coming to the Wii U, 3DS and apparently the PC.

New Zelda Game for 3DS

Zelda 3DS 01 So this is exciting news. Nintendo just revealed a new The Legend of Zelda game for the 3DS.

This new game does not have a full title yet but it will take place in the same world as The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. The 3D effect will come in as Link can literally traverse to new heights in areas via platforms that can launch him into the air.

Zelda 3DS 02Aside from the whole springing Link up to higher platforms, he has a new ability. Link can now become a 2D wall drawing and slide across to reach areas that he is unable to access via normal means.

Zelda 3DS 03A Link to the Past was the first Zelda game that I played and I think that that game holds up to this day. Revisiting that world in 3D is just hitting all the right nostalgia parts on me. And the best part about this? The game will come out in the holiday season of this year!
