While we have no news on the next Animal Crossing game, Nintendo hasn’t left us completely high and dry: they announced a spin-off called “Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer.” It consists of you helping to design villager homes…
With Nintendo participating in E3 this year, I am hoping that we will get some news (although unlikely) about Animal Crossing Wii U. I think a new AC game would sell even more consoles than the new Smash Brothers…
Nintendo just announced that it will be releasing Japan-only DLC to New Leaf players here in the States. Today, February 1st through the 15th, the Red Ogre Mask will be available at participating Nintendo Zones. But what if you are a shut-in or live in a rural area? How do you get these rare items?
One of the really cool things about the combat in Fable 3 is the occasional coup de grâce of an enemy. These extravagant flourishes* are triggered randomly, with particular animations based off of your weapon (easiest), the enemy type, the attack timing, and your distance from the...
Good-bye, Seawell, we’re sad to see you go. Except the flower watering. And the animal trails. And that freaky Easter Bunny that still gives me nightmares.

This video focuses on interior design: it’s rather fabulous. Fabulous though in an incomplete way… the game expects more than one year’s play to collect all of the furniture sets.
The second in our “farewell” series, this is all about the consequences of obsessive-compulsive collecting. Which also just happens to be the museum’s insect, fish, fossil, and art collections. I do have a gripe about the paintings: with the real to fake ratio over the year we...
We’ve played Animal Crossing: City Folk on the Wii for over a year and it’s about time to call it quits. The collectibles that could be caught/bought/found, have been, and those that haven’t, won’t, even if we play through another year. This video will be the first of four,...
Simple Pi, a friend, co-worker, gamer, geek and fellow Minecraft addict, recently gave me the above woodcraft. He had heard me talking about Portal 2 and how much I enjoyed it. He saw a similar craft online and thought he could do it too. Oddly enough, he won’t ever...
