Review: Punch-Out!! (Wii Virtual Console)
Punch-Out!! Genre: Sports Developer: Nintendo Publisher: Nintendo Release Date: 03/30/2007 I love the Virtual Console. Some of the games available were mainstays of my childhood days.

Review: Super Paper Mario (Nintendo Wii)
Super Paper Mario Genre: Platformer/RPG Developer: Intelligent Systems Publisher: Nintendo Release Date: 04/09/2007 Ever since Nintendo made him drive a kart, you have seen Mario everywhere, from party games to cameos in snowboard titles.

Review: Wii Sports (Nintendo Wii)
Wii Sports Developer: Nintendo Publisher: Nintendo Release Date: 11/19/06 System: Wii Letâ┚¬â”žÂ¢s face it. Itâ┚¬â”žÂ¢s sort of silly to review Wii Sports. If you buy a Nintendo Wii, youâ┚¬â”žÂ¢ve got a copy of Wii Sports. Maybe this will be useful for someone who is considering buying a Wii, but itâ┚¬â”žÂ¢s kind of silly really. Wii…

Review: Trauma Center: Second Opinion (Nintendo Wii)
Trauma Center: Second Opinion Developer: Atlus Publisher: Atlus Release Date: 11/19/06 System: Wii Trauma Center: Under the Knife was one of the best games of 2005.
