Nintendo has a knack for surprising fans with interesting videos, promotions, and games. It happened again today. As I ate my pre-work breakfast and scrolled through Twitter, I noticed Nintendo had posted a Mario Kart 8 Nintendo Direct. Not a time for a direct, but a direct itself. And it was fantastic. If you were not excited about the game yet, prepare to be sold.

Nintendo Reveals Plans for E3 2014
The days of three big companies spending thousands of dollars on three huge press conferences appears to be over. Nintendo's experiment with hosting a Nintendo Direct instead of a press conference last year must have worked, as the company has again opted out of holding a press conference in 2014. Instead, Nintendo has announced a number of other events that will happen during E3.

Holy Avatar vs Maidens of the Dead Review
If you've never played a third person RPG such as Diablo or Sacred, then perhaps Holy Avatar vs Maidens of the Dead is the game you ought to pick up. It's simple enough to grasp within a few minutes, but complicated enough to provide hours of fun. Don’t go in expecting a serious story with gripping plot changes. Instead, be ready to observe a very intelligent parody of what a traditional RPG really is.

Mario Golf World Tour Pre Launch Details
The Mario Golf World Tour demo has landed in Europe, and will be available in North America this Thursday. Early indications from some of the major gaming news sites is that the newest Mario Golf is just another example of the top notch work that Nintendo is doing. From my own experiences with the game, it is a worthy successor to Mario Golf Toadstool Tour, albeit one that was too long in the making. Over the last few weeks, further…

Yoshis New Island Review
Yoshi has appeared sporadically throughout the Mario universe, playing major roles in numerous games, and providing cameos in others. In 1995, Yoshi was deemed important enough to be given his own game, and little has changed in the spin-offs and sequels since. Yoshi's New Island, available now for the 3DS, is a familiar platform adventure on a new handheld. Although the core of the game is the same, a few new implementations are less than spectacular, making ...

Rollercoaster Tycoon on IOS Disappoints
RollerCoaster Tycoon for IOS has finally launched, and weeks of anticipation was destroyed by a horrendous pricing plan. While the game play is still reminiscent of the original tycoon classic, the unfortunate micro transactions makes it incredibly hard to have this game take up valuable space on the iPad.

Tomodachi Life – First Impressions
So how can so little come out of a 11 minute Nintendo Direct? If you find life simulators incredibly dis-interesting, take the 11 minute plunge anyways. The witty banter throughout the Nintendo Direct make the time you spent watching well worth it. The entire 11 minutes is very comical. Want to see a Iwata playing with a cat or trying on a Dinosaur suit? Want to see a number of Nintendo executives attempt to pick up Samus Aran on a beach? Of course you do!

Pokemon: Where Does it Go from Here?
April Fools Day always provides a number of fun Internet gags. One of the most high profile jokes this year was from Google, and it involved Pokemon. Using Google Maps, players could search for all original 150 Pokemon and become a Pokemon Master. They even went as far as to 'promise' a position in the company for anybody that could Catch 'em all. Although the job was a farce, the game was real and playable. This prank from Google made me think about where ...
