Pokemon Black & White 2 Animated Trailer

Well I really never finished a Pokemon game, nor am I up to date with the new Pokemon, but this trailer makes me want to buy a Nintendo DS (DSi or a 3DS) and get this game plus its predecessor, Pokemon Black or White.  I already know this isn't actual game play footage but the way they're promoting the game is very good.  All I know is that a lot of Pokemon fans were waiting for a direct sequel to a game and now they're getting it.  Pokemon Black and White 2 comes out in the United States on October 7, 2012 for the Nintendo DS!!!  Can't wait to tell my little cousin!

3DS Games for 2012

Samantha here, there are some upcoming 3DS games that I am psyched about (even though I don't own a 3DS, but its always good to dream).

Quite frankly, this video game looks really cheesy.   The animation and the flow of the characters are slow and the video game seems very child like, but all these factors is what makes Rhythm Thief and the Emperor's Treasure such a fantastic game.  Just looking at the trailer amuses me.  Just thinking about their big boggle heads, the animated scenes, and their cheesy dance moves, always seem to bring a smile to my face.  I can't wait to try this game out.  It bring me back to Playstation's Bust a Groove. Available April 30th in the USA

Animal Crossing!!  You can never go wrong with Animal Crossing!! It's one of those video games that you buy because you played the previous ones.  This game is pretty laid back for me, but its a fantastic way to past the time if I am bored.  I won't cry if I don't invest in this video game, but it would be nice to have it.

Annd the one of the very few video games I do plan on buying is Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance. So apparently, this video game connects Kingdom Hearts: Coded, Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, and Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. Out of all of the Kingdom Hearts fillers, I look forward to this one the most.  I'm barely getting through Birth by Sleep sadly. I just want Kingdom Hearts 3 to come out and then I can play the rest of the fillers because I don't find any of them interesting at the moment.

There's a possibility that Professor Layton vs, Ace Attorney might be coming out this year.  I would love for it to come out this year, but the US might have to wait till next year.  This game will definitely be interesting.  I finished almost all of the Ace Attorney games, and are working on the Professor Layton ones.  Hopefully, this video game will be an exciting one.

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption Review

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption

The game in general: The Metroid series all started back in the NES days when Metroid was released. It wasn’t exactly a best seller, but it wasn’t considered a bad game. In 2002, Metroid Prime was released for the GameCube and got a tremendous amount of praise. It was the first FPS Metroid game, and probably the best one. Prime’s graphics were so good at the time that it challenged the graphics of the Xbox, which is saying a lot. Metroid Prime 2: Echoes was released as a sequel to this game, and Prime 3 was released as the sequel to that in 2007. Metroid Prime 3 is said to be one of the worst Prime games, but many people could easily argue against that. Personally, I love it. Its unique Wii controls, it’s beautiful graphics, and it’s outstanding game play prove it to be (at least in my opinion) one of the best Prime games.

Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance

Well, the Kingdom Hearts 3D:  Dream Drop Distance trailer has been released, and it looks spectacular.  Not only do gamers get the standard of Sora and Riku, they get some new faces to see.  Well, some of these new characters in the game are from other games.  Furthermore, some returning characters from previous games will be in there.  Another thing to point out is the levels.  The three levels that they've pointed out were from Disney movies such as The 3 Musketeers, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and Pinocchio.  I can see that this game will be great for the Kingdom Hearts series.  However, I believe that a lot of people are waiting for a platform release instead of another handheld release.  What are your opinions on this game?  Leave a comment about the future of this game.  Kingdom Hearts 3D:  Dream Drop Distance comes out for the Nintendo 3DS on March 2012!
