Nintendo faces another lawsuit

Nintendo finally won the case against Anascape after years of lawsuits, now the japanese gameproducer faces another lawsuit. The in Maryland, United States established IA Labs has accused Nintendo for infringement on two patents.

According to IA Labs Nintendo uses technologies that are patented by IA Labs in the Nintendo Wii, Wii Fit, Wii Fit Plus, the Wii Balance Board, Wii-mote, Wii Wheel, Wii MotionPlus, Wii Nunchuck and Wii Zapper.

The PS3 has the highest percentage of online users in the US (Wii, X360, PS3)

The PlayStation 3 has the highest percentage of users in the United States that uses the online services via a broadband connection. This appeared from an investigation of the investigation desk The Diffusion Group, for which two thousand men have been interrogated. 78 percent of the PS3-bezitters has made connection with the internet, opposite 73 percent for Xbox 360 and 54 percent for the Nintendo Wii.

The gloss is that we here speak over percentages. We could also say: “Wii has the most online users”, because the most Wii-owners have their console connected to the internet. From figures of NPD Group appeared that if you multiply the installed base of all the consoles multiplied with the percentage users that goes online, the most Wii’s are connected to the internet.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 Review

Super Mario Galaxy 2 is one of the best Mario adventures with many alternation and good use of the new Wii possibilities.

Super Mario Galaxy became the best Mario game after Super Mario 64. Super Mario Sunshine was good, but it wasn’t better then Super Mario 64. In Mario Galaxy, the old Mario game elements are combined with the new possibilities of the Wii. The new worlds and galaxies are incredibly veraied and combined with the new Power plain fizzy Drinks with new controls. And that is what we were waiting for!

Mario Galaxy is collects can defeat there for everybody Mario stars Bowser final.  You can find the stars on different planets with their own challenges. As you jump from mini planet to another, you will be chased by a larger planet with an end boss behind you.  The Stars are not so difficult to get (perhaps some are too easy), but it is a lot of fun to collect them. Then there are yet 60 bonus stars that will form more challenges.

We haven’t played as delightfully with the gravity before as in this game. A lovely tropical planet with Pinguins! Super Mario Galaxy is Super smooth in the gameplay with the Nunchuck, with the Wii Remote you can collect stars and finish of later enemies. If you move objects or kill enemies, that can influence your the whole game.  You can use the Nunchuck and Wii-Remote at the same for an entire new experience and it feels all quite trusted.  We saw that you can run, but you can also make fantastic leaps, while you manipulate the surroundings with the Remote. With an extra Wii Remote, you can play together with a friend and discover all the funny corners of the Mario Galaxy.

Prince of Persia: The forgotten sands

Prince of Persia should resume providing what the classic “Sands of Time” (2003) has shown us 7 years ago. This game had a mysterious, fairy-like atmosphere, combined with some sword fighting. But the greatest asset of course, was that you could find sand everywhere throughout the game. Here you could find the time to accelerate, stop, rewind and much more. The Forgotten Sands is a direct sequel to address that.

The game also comes simultaneously with the film on Prince of Persia and secretly is surely a bit sad again. Movie games are known of their no so best quality. Ubisoft, however, assures us that the game will not be linked with the film, we will see. The screens are certainly positive.

PES 2010 for the Nintendo Wii

It will be pretty frustrating for many Wii gamers that they will often have to play with a lesser game version in the great game franchises. The focus often seems to go to the versions for the PS3 and Xbox 360. Konami takes it a little different with the PES series, and has looked especially how you control with the WiiMote and Nunchuck. This results in the ultimate control over your passes and shots.

The Wii version of PES 2010 has a number of known modes and the most gamers will probably first play the Master League or the Champions Road. If you are not familiar with previous Wii parts, then we advise you to follow the tutorial first. Even if you’ve played one of the other versions of PES 2010, then a little bit of practice can be good.

Controls


The controls with the Wiimote and Nunchuck is particularly difficult and without explanation you really have no idea what to do to, even with an easy sprint or pass. The tutorial, which will gradually explain to you how to perform all the actions on screen is very clear and profound happiness. As example, with texts (both spoken and written) and exercises you learn how to deal with the controls.

You are not there yet, since the controls also require considerable tolerance. Many of the actions you perform with the WiiMote, which among other things used as a pointer that shows you where players need to go or where you want the ball.

If you’re on the ball, you have to focus your WiiMote on where you want the player to be and with the A button your player will walk there. Furthermore you can check with the analog stick of a player Nunchuck run and it depends a bit on the situation that controls you apply.

To control the ball you only have to use the B button. You point the WiiMote at the ball where you want it and then press and release the B button for immediate play. But you see a striker who is not yet the defensive line is crossed, you can set the pointer behind the defenders, the B button held down, after this the attacker will run towards the pointer. If you release the B button at the right time, you will give a perfect pass.

After a few games you will give perfect sharp passes. The AI is not that smart, this will ensure you that it will go a little easier then the previous PES games. The weak points in the defense are sometimes vissible and the defenders are often very passive, so you can go in offensive very easily.

The said Artificial Intelligence also plays a role when you’re not on the ball. The defense again proving to be the biggest challenge in PES 2010 for Wii. You can automatically put pressure on the Z-button and use a touch, then more players will be involved.

You can also select a player to run in a line, to do so you will have to hit the A button and hold it. This way you can pass the ball to the person trying to cut off. By shaking the nunchuck, you can also tackle other players (this is a nice feature if your opponent tries to make a goal).

The tactical players can even easily use the offside by the WiiMote and Nunchuck while moving up. Almost all actions are also to be implemented in PES 2010 for Wii, but it remains difficult to control their work on the defensive. The controls with the Wiimote and Nunchuck it shows lack precision, allowing an attacker suddenly only the goalkeeper can pass.

Innovations


We played the game and saw little new innovations in PES2010, and certainly not innovations compared to the PS3 and XBOX versions. Only the system for free kicks renewed and now you can easily identify where you want to shoot the ball and then shoot by tilting the WiiMote.

The taking of free kicks is very simple, but taking corner kicks proved to be difficult. One thing we did like was the fatigue meter. Now the soccer players can not run the whole field without getting tired, this has proven to be very realistic.

Overall ratings


Like the version for other platforms, the Wii version available for the Champions League and can also be fought online. It must be said that PES 2010 has more than enough game to ensure that you will have lots of hours of fun.

In terms of graphics, the Wii version of PES 2010 is very nice, especially during the replays we saw very sharp details of the players. The animations looked nice and we thought Konami has certainly done his best. The other thing that was amazing was the commentary. It was very realistic. The soundtrack with songs from recent popular bands is a welcome addition.

PES 2010 for Wii is definitely a strong footie for casual players and still not boring for the casual gamer. It is a shame that Konami has made little improvement, while there really are some features that can be improved. Especially the defense is still very difficult even wehn artificial intelligence is not very strong. PES 2010 for Wii remains strong, but we really want to see more improvements on the next game.
