You don’t think I could just let Kevin bring back a feature and receive no competition? Absolutely not! My arrogant jerkiness won’t allow it. And so, the Console Classica returns. So what’s the game we’ll be looking at now? How about one of the greatest successes on the N64, and one of Nintendo’s most popular franchises? I’m talking about Super Smash Bros. for the N64.

Tada! A Closer Look is back! So maybe it isn’t every week, but hey, I’m a busy guy. You’d better be glad I’m here to inform you about the games you haven’t heard about at all. Today I take a look at the first game from Steve Spielberg: EA’s Boom Blox.
Sorry about missing the feature last week… I was really busy with school and work and Advance Wars. Regardless, A Closer Look is back to show you the games nobody else wants to! This week I look at Sega’s Wii port of the classic light gun shooters, The House of the Dead 2 & 3.
‘A Closer Look’ is a weekly feature here at nWaffle where I take a closer look (get it?) at a great looking game that isn’t getting the hype it should be. No Smash Bros., no Mario, no Zelda around here… just the little guys that deserve just as much attention, but don’t get it. This week’s game is Nanostray 2 for the DS.
We at nWaffle are proud to introduce our newest feature - The Console Classica. With this weekly feature, we’ll take a look back at some classic titles from an enormous list of games. Going back to as early as the NES, all the way to the final titles to hit the Gamecube, we’re going to look at what these games did so great, or so horribly, and how they shaped our industry. And what better way to start this feature off than with what is arguably one of the greatest games of all time - The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past.

Welcome to a brand new weekly feaure here at nWaffle, A Closer Look. We all have our most anticipated games, the heavy hitters that get all the hype and sell millions of copies. Well, this feature is for the other guys. The games that look like they’re going to be fantastic, but aren’t getting any press or any hype. The games you might not know about, but might end up being a new favorite. This week, I’ll take a closer look at Professor Layton and the Curious Village for DS.
2007 was a really strange year. It was an excellent year for gaming overall. There were a lot of shocks, a lot of highs, and a lot of lows too. The Wii had it’s fair share of the latter. But still, we got Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, and Resident Evil 4, among many more. But with another year over and done with, we can only look forward to the future. Our wallets may be empty from the last couple of months, but like a farmer after the harvest, we are ready to rebuild. The following games on this issue of the N10 are the games coming in 2008 that have turned our heads, widened our eyes, and have slapped a stupid grin on our faces. These are our most anticipated titles for 2008.
It’s that time of the year again… when we all gather around and dance like little school girls in anticipation for all the upcoming releases in the new year! Sure we might not know much of what actually IS being released, but we know a little, and it’s enough to fill in a top ten with our ‘Most Anticipated Games of 2008′! Nintendo’s mighty handheld had a terrific year sales-wise, but super high quality games were few and far between. There were a couple hits, but for a platform in it’s third year, there needed to be more AAA games. 2008 looks to solve the situation as there’s already a number of incredible looking games on the way. Thus, nWaffle presents, the Top 10 Most Anticipated DS Games of 2008!
365 days of Wii, one of the most successful consoles ever. It’s selling like crazy, everyone is after it, and it is an absolute nightmare to find - so are there any good games out? I mean they’re all PS2 ports, there are swarms of mini-game compilations (not necessarily good ones), and so many cheap cash-ins that we feel bad saying how many. There have got to be some games worth playing! Don’t worry - there definitely are! We at nWaffle are going to list for you our Top 10 games of the past year. These are the games that didn’t make you question why you bought the Wii, but instead completely justified your choice. These are the stand-out titles that everyone who owns the system must check out. Let the countdown begin!
