It's never looked like the massive multiplayer games could survive on a gaming console. There's something about a PC lends itself to all the hotkeys and such. Or, maybe that's just antiquated thinking. EA is looking toward the future of the Wii, and they believe it could be an MMO.

Who can hate Canadians? They're our neighbors to the north, nice folks with decent beer and a really cute way of saying words like "sorry" and "about". Their coins are a little annoying, the way they always end up in American pockets at the exact time we're trying to buy a candy bar. Oh, and they also get a great Wii game for a cheaper price.

You never see Nintendo demos, especially for Wii games. That's what makes the news of a Dr. Mario & Germ Buster demo so cool. What makes it a lot less cool is that it's only available right now to gamers in Europe and Australia.

I may be one of the few 80s babies who just can't stand Ted Nugent. The bow-hunting, the chauvinism, the...do I need to keep listing this man's ridiculous flaws? Nah. The one great thing about Ted Nugent is that the man can (or could) play the daylights out of a guitar and it seems like Harmonix agrees.

Although the critics have fallen in love with the amazing highly stylized Okami, it's been having a rougher time catching on with the buying public. It looks like it could be falling victim to the same dismal fate as a number of games that have been ported over to the Wii from other consoles. Here's where you come in.

Amazon's stripping $10 off their copies of Okami, knocking the price down from $39.99 to $29.99. If that's not enough, they're offering free shipping for the game as well. This is your opportunity to get your hands on a memorable Wii title without breaking the bank.

There have been all sorts of deals for Wii games this past week, so we might as well share them while they're still hot. We've got three titles this time, all games that should have done better but somehow fell through the cracks. Between Steven Spielberg (Indiana Jones, everything else you ever loved about going to the movies) and the Wachowski brothers (Matrix Trilogy), you'd figure there would be a surefire hit in here somewhere.

Only in today's high-tech era can someone become famous for playing a video game. We've seen the rise of films such as King of Kong, documenting the trials and tribulations of being the world record holder at Donkey Kong. Now, the focus is on a new phenomenon in gaming that is being taken just as seriously.

WiiWare has launched. After all the confetti and streamers were cleaned up, after the online fanfare, the celebration hangover has set in. The number one question on the tongues of everyone after the launch of Nintendo's new online game service for the Nintendo Wii? Where are all the Nintendo games?

The Nintendo Wii has enjoyed quite the time at the top of the console sales heap for a while now. When Halo 3 was released, there was a significant moment that saw Nintendo surrender that top spot, only to regain it. Michael Pachter, the gaming industry oracle, has come down from the mountaintop with his latest predictions.

It's become quite obvious to the numerous fans of the Virtual Console that the platform has been pushed to the side, hopefully for the time being, in favor of WiiWare. We understand that they've got to cultivate the new platform in the weeks following its U.S. launch, but there are some cool games that are coming out on the VC. They're just not being released on the U.S. version of the Virtual Console.
