The Ghostbusters game is due out today on every platform in existence, well, except in Europe where Sony owns exclusivity rights until November…  Anyway, it appears GameStop has asked Dan Aykroyd, “Who you gonna call?”, as the legendary film star is calling people who have pre-ordered the game from the store.

Here’s what the message says:

The best way to acquire the new Wii Motion Plus hardware is to get a game with it.  For instance, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10adds the peripheral for only $10 over the normal cost of the game.  I would have to believe Wii Sports Resort will have a similar package. If you’d like to equip [...]

Nintendo takes the challenge out of gaming…

Sometimes I really have to wonder what Nintendo is thinking.  In a recent article on USA Today, Nintendo is taking yet another step in allowing “casual” gamers to have… “fun” with their core games.

Wii Sports Resort – Online?

Wow, the one thing missing from Wii Sports could ACTUALLY make the “sequel” worth buying.  The Nintendo Channel is mentioning not only WiiConnect24 but also online.  Being able to play these online with people will be a lot more fun than playing tennis by yourself.

More Chrono Trigger Possible: It’s Up To You says Square Enix

So, I have to admit when Reggie Fils-Aime was talking about an RPG that hasn’t been around in a long time coming back, I wasn’t thinking Golden Sun, I was thinking Chrono Trigger.  From the sounds of it, Square may be interested in doing another Chrono Trigger, too.  If the price is right and the [...]
