4.5. out of 5.0

For the past 22 years, Nintendo has had the handheld gaming market on lock. During that time span they’ve had their share of competition from some big name companies — Sega, NEC, Atari, Nokia, and Sony. Most of have fallen, while others became afterthoughts, but with Apple’s handheld devices making a serious move on Nintendo’s territory, now seemed like the best time for Nintendo to make a bold (gaming) evolutionary move.

3.0 OUT OF 5.0

I have to admit  I’ve been sleeping on the Professor Layton series. Nintendo’s latest release, Professor Layton and the Unwound Future, begins with Professor Layton and his apprentice, Luke, receiving an “eerie” letter stating that London, in the future, is in disarray and that the Professor’s assistance is greatly needed to set things right again. Don’t bother asking why they need to travel to future to set things right instead of fixing what happens in the past so that the bad never happens, just go with it. The twist is, that the letter seems to be from Luke from the future. So of course Professor and Luke MUST figure out what’s going on which culminates with the duo being sent 10 years into the future.

4.0 out of 5.0

Nintendo is teetering on Sega territory with the release of its latest update to their portable gaming console, the Nintendo DSi XL. Not sure what I’m talking about? Recall back to the period of 1994-1995. Sega, the clear leader in the 16-bit console war, embarked on a number of questionable upgrades to their Sega Genesis console. There was the Sega CD, then the ‘new’ Sega Genesis, the ‘new’ Sega CD, and the 32X before finally releasing the Sega Saturn in 1995. By that time, people were sick of Sega, and the Saturn bombed while Sony launched the PlayStation and never looked back.
