LEGO Harry Potter: years 1-4

Let's talk about... LEGO Harry Potter: years 1-4. I'll say, this is a good game. the one word I'd use to describe the game is green. the game starts off with Hagrid on his flying motorcycle, crashing into a flowerbed, then giving professor McGonagall a flower. the designers also had a good idea on how to represent someone's death (anyone who has played a Lego game knows that Lego bricks reassemble) and making a (crude) joke about it. I'd by this game if you like Lego's, Harry Potter, or are just bored.
As always, here is a video:

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games

Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games isn't what I hoped it to be, in short. It just doesn't feel like the winter games are meant for playing. it's not that I'm disclaiming it, I'm just saying that it doesn't feel smooth. It is really good, the DS just isn't a good system, I'd like to see how it would be on a 3DS. like many racing games, I think that it now depends on whether you own a DS or 3DS, otherwise I think that the graphics were good, Dream Games (games that have weird effects that you wouldn't find in real situations) are still there, and the adventure mode is an added bonus. I'd say that if you have a 3DS this game would be worth buying if you even mildly like racing games, but you want to be able to sell it ( if you get bored with this game then you could just hand it in and get a new game.)  If you have a DS the controls won't be the same, but that doesn't really make too much of a difference.want a video? Then here is a video:

Pokemon heartgold/soulsilver

Pokemon heartgold/ soulsilver  looks like they will be one of the best Pokemon games ever. They have a lot of features, these being some of them:
  • There are two regions, Johto and Kanto.
  • There are more legendary Pokemon than any other game.
  • You can battle Red (Ash.)
  • You can get three starters.
  • You get to meet Steven, the champion in ruby/ sapphire.
These are just some of the reasons heartgold and soulsilver are great. Here is a video to prove that.

Pokémon black/white

Pokemon Black/White has great graphics, takes place in a new region, has over 150 new Pokemon, a good plot,and all the Wi-Fi access you could want! What more is there to ask? Well, a series reboot, for one thing. The whole game looks great. There is also Looker, a member of the international police, that returns from platinum. (During red/blue/ yellow/leaf green/fire red someone says that they are a member the international police, hmm, could that be Looker?) you are able to transfer, catch, and battle 4th generation Pokemon when you beat the game, though.
Here is a video sample:

Pokémon Mystery Dungeon explorers of sky

Pokémon: EOS (Explorers of sky) Is like the two pokémon mystery dungeon games that came before it. It has the same plot: Time is breaking down when you, a human from the future, go back in time and turn into a pokémon. It's up to you and your partner to form a team the stop the world's paralysis! Yeah, the same story. One of the biggest features is that you are able tho play special episodes, adventures where you are able to play as different pokémon in new dungeons. You'll want to get it if you really like time or darkness/you haven't played time or darkness/you would like to play the special episodes.
Here are some EOS "codes":

Pokémon platinum


This game drops you off in the Sinnoh region. You are a 10-year-old boy/girl in the Sinnoh region, and your dream is to become the Sinnoh region champion. You soon learn that being (and becoming) #1 is a lot more than throwing a few pokéballs at some Pokemon. Then team Galactic interrupts; this is a really good game that you would not want to miss.The distortion world has a great look, which is one of the reasons I'd choose it over diamond/ pearl. there are also two new people that appear, Looker and Charion. The graphics could be a bit better, but otherwise the only complaints I'd have would be about what it doesn't have. But, hey, they brought back the battle frontier from Pokemon Emerald!
Here is a video sample:

Sonic classic collection

There isn't much to say here. Since we're looking at games that I can leave you blindfolded and you can get pretty far without any help, you might not want to buy it, but you should be alerted that there are 4 games, but you are able to play 2 of the same games as knuckles, so that might interest you. In addition to that there is the artwork (Of sonic!) that you can look at. If you've played these games before, there isn't anything new to do, but if you haven't then you should see what you're missing. I must warn you that the frame rate can be slower than you would want it to be sometimes. There are also some parts of the game(s) where you need to rely on luck.

Pokémon ranger guardian signs

Pokémon ranger guardian signs starts off in the middle of action chasing the pinchers chasing latios/latias, when,suddenly a Pokémon ranger arrives! This Pokémon ranger is you! the Pokémon pinchers send a Pidgey after you, then shoot at you with their plasma cannons. Your partner arrives after this, but with her comes Red Eyes (he's in the red.) After this he blasts his plasma cannon at your partner, but you move in front of her/him. Then you fall into the water. This is just the start of Pokémon ranger guardian signs. This game can get boring after awhile, and drawing the signs can be difficult,but this may be for the best.

New! super mario bros.

Hello! Hello! I feel like we should review New! super mario bros.(DS) first. Off the bat you have that feeling that this game is going to be a great game, staring everyone's favorite plummer, mario! In the first level you get to use a mega (as in MEGA) mushroom. the fun lasts to world five, when the ice starts to "melt". That reminds me, there is an cannon in world 1 and 2 that gets you to world 5. The cannon in world one is found by getting the shell suit. In world one tower get up to the point where you find the green pipe that shoots you past the door. As you come down wall jump onto the platform. When you are in the room and have collected the star coin, look around the room. See that space up in the corner that never gets blocked? Jump in there. Once that is done, spin dash. Whatever you do, do not jump into the yellow pipe. Once you are done,(you need to spin jump) enter into the pipe you've unlocked then pull down the flag outside. The second cannon is a lot easier, and I think that you can unlock it all by yourself.
There is another mode that you can play after you beat the main game: Challenge mode. After beating the game you just have to hit Start in the world map and enter the following code:
LRLRXXYY
The challenge mode puts a forced scroll on all of the levels, so you can't back-track.This is a video telling you how to get world one cannon:
