    1.- Please make the blog post large

    WiiWareWave Exclusive Features Top5banner-1

    I have to be honest; the Wii is not my favorite Nintendo system (it’s almost over), which is why I can only come up with 5 that are worthy of a 9 rated score or higher. Titles such as Xenoblade and The Last Story are not listed because I hadn't got a chance to since my Wii no longer reads dual-layer discs. From those 9 titles that I experienced though, I don't regret owning the system. Below are my top 9 Wii retail titles you should already own in your Wii collection.

    This has been a rumor that hasn’t died over the past year or so about Apple’s plan to break into the smaller sized tablet market. Nicknamed the “the iPad Mini” the device is rumored to be 7”85 and cost around $200. In the past it has been never a likely idea for Apple however with the release of Nexus 7 and Microsoft’s Surface tablet – this time they might actually have a fight on their hands instead of begin able to take them to court.

    Already an improvement from the 3DS launch

    No matter what you think of Nintendo press conference(s?) this year, there are actual new experiences to look forward to from Wii U launch. Unlike the Nintendo 3DS launch, customers (including myself even if I’m not planning to get the system on day one) are more likely to get more than one retail game (even with the existence of digital retail) at launch. Here's my top 5 most anticipated Wii U launch titles.

    The Nintendo Wii is approaching the end of its life; it’s been a great 6 years. While it's been looked down on by many gamers; as a Wii owner, I can honestly say that I’m satisfied.  What the Wii didn’t have in power, it made up for in games and great fun. It's a great console to play with friends and family, and on top of this had a great library of online and single player games. This list is a personal testament to all the games I have enjoyed over the years. Please note only games I have played (or put sufficient time into) will be on this list. Let’s get started.

    As most of you may know, Kid Icarus: Uprising released not even a month ago on the next gen portable Nintendo 3DS. A revival no one, not even Nintendo, saw coming in its future. Some screamed, others fainted, most were shocked into skepticism and the real question always was: How is Nintendo going to pull it off? Fans rejoiced and from the user base it not only sold good but it was a delayed revival well worth the wait. So why couldn't Nintendo pull it off again?
