Nintendo's not doing so great as a hardware manufacturer. Its Wii U isn't really selling; the old Wii is still selling, but doesn't make much money, and there just aren't that many games actually being made for either console. So, what if Nintendo 'pulled a Sega' and dumped hardware for games? Mario on your phone would be awesome. Read More >>

Nintendo's latest set of financial figures underline exactly how much of a disaster its new Wii U console has been at retail, with the machine selling just 3.45m units since launch and an inconsequential 300,000 in the last quarter. It's dead already. Read More >>
There isn't one of us who would dare to say no to some free stuff. Or at least that's what we're hoping, because it’s free stuff that we're pimping rhythmically into your face-holes today. Read More >>
Ask anyone who was an avid gamer in the 1990s what the greatest console game of all time is, and a vast majority will say GoldenEye on the N64. Many of us lost a good chunk of our childhood to the game's fantastic multiplayer mode and its wonderful weaponry, including the dastardly remote mines which you can now enjoy in real life.

Nintendo's Wii U is making a push to revive interest in their next-gen console, which means there's a raft of bargains to be had which you should be exploiting. And Christ knows you people just love exploiting things, you shark-eyed nincompoops. Read More >>
That round London tube map was pretty damn good. Now how about a version of the Underground map from an alternate universe where 8-bit graphics and Mario level cartography somehow became the cultural norm? It's the Super Mario Bros. 3 Zone 1 Tube Map! Read More >>
It was the game that defined a revolution in handheld gaming, but during the countless hours you spent playing Tetris and neatly organising falling tetrominoes, did you ever stop and wonder how many of those pieces you'd need to build a full-size house? Probably not, after all, what kid spends their time dreaming about home engineering? Read More >>
It's been revealed that sales of the Nintendo Wii U console have been more sluggish than a slug that's trying to run a marathon while wearing hobnail boots and carrying a backpack filled with tiny bricks. Oh yes, pretty sluggish. Read More >>

In addition to playing well with Nintendo's hardware, this gamepad also cozies up to your smartphone or tablet. Read More >>
If you start wasting somebody's time at NASA, this is how they're going to get you out of their office. Or, it's how JPL engineer Mark Rober will, anyway. This hacked Nintendo console will definitely put you on notice. Read More >>
It seems Nintendo's not exactly going for bargain basement with the new iteration of the aging Wii. The Wii Mini's UK street price is £80. Considering you can pick up second hand, un-gimped Wiis for barely £50, I'm not sure why you'd ever buy this. [Amazon via Cnet] Read More >>
Yes, that's right. The console, previously only available in Canada for some reason, is coming to the UK. We don't know how much it'll cost (probably about £60), but we do know that it'll be available come March 22nd. You know, just in case you don't already have a super-cheap Nintendo sitting under your goggle box, and aren't interested in the other Wii. [TechRadar] Read More >>
