Mini Ninjas DS vs Xbox 360 Smackdown: Which Is Better?
You already know about my addiction to Mini Ninjas, which I played on the Xbox 360 at this year's E3, but did you know that this game also came out on other platforms? I haven't tested out the Wii or PS3 editions, but I have been able to get my hands on both the Xbox 360 and DS versions to test and play.
As you may know, not all games are created equal on all platforms.

My Favorite Nintendo News From the E3 Keynote

The first one is the new multiplayer Super Mario Bros. for the Wii, appropriately titled New Super Mario Bros.
Ghostwire For Your DSi Looks Freaky, Fun: Are You Into It?
If you like SciFi's Ghost Hunters, Most Haunted, and hey, maybe even The Ghost Whisperer, then you're going to love the latest game slated to hit the DSi Store later this year. Called Ghostwire, this game uses your Nintendo DSi's cameras to search your pad for spirits, apparitions, and EMF's so you can be your very own Ghostbuster. I love ghost stories, and this game brings them to life since you can pan around your room, suddenly see a ghostly figure hanging out by your closet, then poof!
Personal Trainer: Walking Hits Stores May 26
Nintendo is really trying to get us in shape for Summer! Set to make its official debut on May 26 here in the US, Personal Trainer: Walking works by sending data between a wireless activity pedometer (which you can place anywhere — even inside a bag!) and the infrared game card in your Nintendo DS or DSi to track your walking progress.
Your DS will record your daily step count, minute by minute, so you can always go back and see your activity level.
