GoNintendo and GameDaily have chosen our top picks for Nintendo's most annoying characters!Rinry's latest video pits the Nintendo Entertainment System against the SEGA Master System. It's an all-out brawl in the battle of Double Dragon! Click here to check it out!
I'm actually happy about this delay. According to the most recent issue of Nintendo Power, Shantae: Risky's Revenge isn't coming out Q4 2009 anymore. The magazine simply states a Q1 2010 release, which gives WayForward a lot of extra time to work on the title. Why am I happy about this delay? It sounds like this push back will give Mr. Kaufman more than enough time to put together a soundtrack!
Did you know that WireWay is already out? I honestly didn't know, and I've been paying attention to the game! When I learned earlier today that the game was out, I snuck out to GameStop to grab myself a copy! The local GS said they didn't have it, but they actually did. Good thing I checked the game shelf before I left!
Anyway, you can check out a flash demo for the game at the link below. If you like the demo, you should be very happy with the game itself! If Konami isn't going to spread the word on WireWay...I will!
Do you know what one of my favorite game soundtracks is? That would have to be Shantae. Do you know who composed that soundtrack? None other than Jake “virt” Kaufman, a composer that has done some amazing game scores, including Shatae and Contra IV. Do you know who just confirmed that they're going to be heading back to WayForward in January 2010? Once again, we're talking about Jake “virt” Kaufman.
We have no word on whether or not Mr. Kaufman is going to be scoring the upcoming Shantae episodic series, but I sure hope so. I'm thinking the episodic series and Mr. Kaufman's move to WayForward can't be coincidental.
Game Informer has started doing a round-up of their most interesting blog posts each week from staffers, so I thought I'd share them with you guys...

My Ten Favorite (Not “Best”) Games Of All Time
Nintendo is a very odd company. For example, let's take some news that just turned up a second ago. The Big N has confirmed that, after years of waiting, Super Mario Kart is going to be available on the Virtual Console this coming Monday. On top of that, they've also confirmed Pilotwings and Super Smash Bros. for release during this holiday season. Why now, Nintendo...why make us wait so long, and then randomly dump these games on us?! Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy. I just don't get the way you work! Thanks to Ilikebacon and KingBroly for the heads up!
Again, this article contains a good amount spoilers concerning the first 3 hours of the game. Stay away if you don't want the experience ruined.
