Mario Bros.

Flood of Kingdom Hearts 3D info inbound, not surprising since the Japanese release is a little over a month away. The best thing about this is that we've found hints of localization happening certainly quicker than it was for BBS (which took 9 months for a superb localization and Final Mix-esque features but still hurt to wait that long). Definitely my most anticipated 3DS game aside from Kid Icarus: Uprising and Luigi's Mansion 2.

Now for a classic arcade game:

If you've played a GBA Mario port, you've prolly played this before.

Punch-Out!!

Been addicted to Pushmo and got sucked back into Pokémon White. My 3DS is sure feeling the love lately, and I haven't even truly delved into serious sessions in Metal Gear Solid 3D. I feel kinda bad ignoring it (especially since it controls so nice and snug into my Circle Pad Pro) but when an addicting series calls you gotta respond or lose your mind! Knowing me I'll be back into Harvest Moon sooner than later...

Crap.

Onward to Punch-Out!!

Never fought against Mike Tyson, but I imagine my hatred towards Mr. Dream is just as valid.

Excitebike

Just found out that the PS3's Backup Utility doesn't save PS1 and PS2 data and instead needs to be separately saved on USBs. Kinda bummed out, since I'd just finished replaying Final Fantasy VII and VIII and was nearing the last stretch of IX. Seems like I'm gonna hafta play through them again. I'm not as disappointed that I'm replaying them again than the fact that PS1/2 saves aren't covered in the bloomin' backup utility!

*sigh*

Anyways, on to another NES classic:

An oft-remembered classic arcade racer.

Wrecking Crew

Loving my Collector's Edition of Final Fantasy XIII-2! So much awesome in the sequel to a game I already loved (which places me squarely in the minority, but more on that on the Final Fantasy reviews) and I can't wait for things beyond the DLC its ultimate resolution!

Now, onto the review:

Classic old-school puzzles with plumber carpenter Mario.
