Nintendo sure has its way at breaking sales records, and does so with a couple of loyal friends by its side. Let’s take a look at 3 of its babies, which drive it home.
No More Heroes
Swinging a knockoff lightsaber, assassinating a crew of wacky killers, and schlepping coconuts around a park for spare change? This isn't just what Wii needs more of it's what gaming needs more of. No More Heroes wasn't produced on the biggest of budgets, and is a bit rough around the edges. But the hilarious story, go-for-broke style, and satisfying action make it a must-play.
Boom Box
Steven Spielberg's name on the box couldn't save Boom Box from being largely ignored by the majority of Wii owners. Those who did take a chance on the movie director's first crack at spearheading a puzzle game were rewarded with innovative game play concepts that match up to Nintendo's best.
Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Leave it to Nintendo to craft an adorably addictive hard-core brawler that's also attractive to the casual gamer. This third iteration of the popular all-star fighting game continues the tradition of burying deep game play underneath simple jump-and-punch mechanics. New additions include a level editor and online fights.
