Announced for the first time at GDC 2009, The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks became one of the few Zelda games to be announced and released in the same year. Featuring a graphical style similar to that of 2007’s Phantom Hourglass, Spirit Tracks showcased a new mode of transportation for Hyrule’s hero, a train. While the initial trailer for Spirit Tracks showed off quite a bit of gameplay, there were still many questions I had. Would Link still be able to travel on foot in the overworld? Will you be able to lay your own tracks in the world? Where did the tracks/train come from? Fast forward to today, and we have all our answers as I’ve spent many an hour in Link’s latest adventure. And believe me, this is one adventure you won’t want to miss!

REDMOND, Wash., March 18, 2010 – From bank balances to IQ scores, there are many things people would love to see increase by 93 percent. Nintendo, for its part, is determined to significantly boost the social fun of portable gaming. Launching March 28, the new, extra-large Nintendo DSi XL™ hand-held system makes it easier for everyone to gather around and have a good time.

Nintendo DSi XL will be available at a suggested retail price of $189.99, and that includes three titles that have been pre-installed on the system. These include the brain-training games Brain Age™ Express: Math and Brain Age™ Express: Arts & Letters, as well as Photo Clock, which lets users customize the pictures on the background of their clock. Nintendo DSi XL launches in both Burgundy and Bronze, with a glossy top and a matte-finish bottom for a better grip.

The Wii is not usually known for its selection of flying games, but Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces sets out to change that perception. I can remember thinking about the possibilities for flying games when the Wii remote/nunchuk were first announced, but we’re really only seen a few worthwhile implementations. Most flying games so far for the Wii have very little use of motion control and they don’t offer much in terms of presentation to entice players. With Sky Crawlers: Innocent Aces, XSEED aims to show us a different flying experience that’s exclusive to the Wii.
