Nintendo’s putting the heart and soul back into some of the best titles of their time. Editor's Note: This review features comments from co-editor Steve Schardein as well, who happens to be playing the Gold/Silver entries for the first time via these remakes.  His comments are shown in italics.  If you're a newcomer, you might appreciate Steve's take on the subjects that Pokéveteran Greg introduces throughout the article.

Make no mistake about it; this is a massive game.

Zero to Hero? Or is this Hero a Zero?

In other words, Wii Fit 2.0

Will this game send you soaring or drop you flat on your face?

Enjoy our in-depth-ish review; it's not globin science.

Wow. That’s the reaction that came to mind when we all first learned of Nintendo’s plans to relaunch its now-classic Trilogy on a single Wii disc (complete with revamped control schemes)… and now that I’ve spent a significant amount of time with the final game, it hasn’t changed. Whether you’re just considering the series for the first time or you’re a veteran back for another round, our review’s got you covered.

Pixel this.

Next Level Games with the TKO.

Magic Frog's gonna lay you out.

This game is sure to go platinum multiple times.

In this remake of the classic NES title, Intelligent Systems seeks to successfully integrate the spirit of the original with nearly twenty years of subsequent gameplay refinements.  Fortunately, what they've come up with is enough to please nearly any tactics fan.

Wario is quite possibly one of Nintendo’s greatest creations. What has become Nintendo’s anti-character, this cousin of Mario is nothing like his happy-go-lucky counterparts but is rather a crude, selfish, money loving jerk who’s willing to do just about anything to increase his pocketbook. From his sinister, unnecessarily evil attitude to his silly, crude, and quirky style, Wario has become a Nintendo phenomenon to some (me being included). In almost every game he’s appeared, it’s almost compulsory for me to choose him as my player. From Mario Kart and other Mario sports and party titles to Super Smash Bros: Brawl, Wario begs to be played with his demeaning personality and lack of sportsmanship.

Say it ain’t so, Nintendo…

Respect the puffball.
