Nintendo Bricks Wii U Consoles Unless Owners Agree To New EULA
Nintendo: it protects what it believes it owns with great vigor. The company has rarely missed an opportunity to make sure that other people are not allowed to alter or mess with the stuff Nintendo insists is Nintendo's. In an apparent effort to maximize the irony combo-meter, Nintendo also has been known to make sure that customers don't mess with or alter the properties those customers actually own, such as online support for games that Nintendo decided to alter long after purchase...

Four Things I Learned While Writing A Book About Super Mario Bros. 2
Out of all the sequels in the Super Mario series, the longest-spanning, most consistently popular and highly acclaimed game franchise in history, Super Mario Bros. 2 is the strangest and most important.Twenty-six years ago, the videogame starring Mario and three of his friends landed on American shores with a resounding roar. That first game was a phenomenon, the likes of which happen once or twice a generation. Super Mario Bros. for the NES would soon become the best-selling game of all time.

Nintendo Teams up with Playboy to Promote Bayonetta 2
In what may be one of the oddest marketing promotions I’ve ever seen, Nintendo has partnered with Playboy to promote Bayonetta 2. While the promotion makes some sense — a big part of Bayonetta has always been her sex appeal — it’s still really bizarre to see the normally family-friendly Nintendo teaming up with an adult magazine publisher.

The Wii U Might Have Somehow Become The Console To Beat This Generation
I want to tell you a story you might not believe. I purchased Super Smash Bros. for Wii U on the day of its release. I brought it home, and I played it for a while. I jumped into several online matches, played against a handful of different opponents, and I had a good time. I played it again later that night and still ran into no problems. And…uh, that’s it. That’s my entire story. Now, that might not sound like much to you, but to me...

Why Nintendo doesn’t release Mario on the App Store
Recently, I read an interviews to Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata in the Japanese gaming website, which was very entertaining and interesting. There are lots of interesting facts I didn’t know on the article including Satoru Iwata himself has hard-core programing background and he actually was writing codes until he turns to 40 years old. However, as an indie iOS developer who makes living on the App Store, the most interesting part was that he clearly explained why Nintendo...

Deconstructing the method to Nintendo's madness
It's easy to hate on Nintendo. With the Wii U, the company played right into negative consumer expectations by releasing a product derided for its kid-friendly appeal, Fisher-Price toy-like looks, less-than-bleeding-edge silicon, confusing branding and (initially) clunky operating system. The message to the market at the system's launch seemed clear: The gaming giant had fallen behind the times. But that's not quite the truth.
