Super Smash Bros. Has A Bunch Of Rules That Could Get You Banned

Super Smash Bros. Has A Bunch Of Rules That Could Get You BannedSo we heard that Super Smash Bros. will be making its way onto the Nintendo 3DS later this year in summer, followed by a Wii U release later in winter. Given that game is designed to be a multiplayer game, safe to say that Nintendo has foreseen that gamers will run into trolls and griefers who will do everything in their power to make the game un-fun for you.

Thankfully Nintendo has thought this through and have come up with a list of rules that will result in gamers getting banned if they break any of them. This was revealed during the Nintendo Direct presentation and some of the things that gamers can do to get banned includes starting a game and not playing, essentially wasting everyone’s time; relentless targeting of an individual which we guess can be attributed to harassment and bullying; frequent self-destructs; frequent dropping which is also a waste of time; and last but not least, cheating.

We’re not sure what kind of cheats the game has since it has yet to be released, but presumably this could also cover the exploitation of bugs in the game and on certain characters that might give players a slight edge over the competition. Of course these rules don’t apply to local multiplayer games so you might want to think carefully of who you invite over for a game of Super Smash Bros.!

In fact this sounds a bit like Microsoft’s reputation system that they’re implementing for the Xbox One. Basically bad players are punished while good players are rewarded. Some of these can’t be helped, like dropping from games since it could be due to a bad connection, so hopefully Nintendo and whoever’s behind the banhammer will be able to distinguish between legitimate drops and players who drop out of games on purpose.

Nintendo Confirms New Mario Game In The Works

Nintendo Confirms New Mario Game In The WorksDespite Nintendo not exactly being in the forefront when it comes to selling consoles at the moment, the company’s contributions to the gaming industry are well-known as they have provided us with popular and iconic games like Mario and its various iterations. Well the good news is that if you were looking forward to a new Mario game, Nintendo has recently confirmed that a new Mario game is in the works.

Unfortunately Nintendo was unable to confirm if the game is coming onto the Nintendo 3DS handheld console or if it will be destined for the Wii U instead. According to the game’s producer, Yoshiaki Koizumi when asked about which platform it would be released on, he said, “That’s still a secret. I can tell you, though, that we’ve already started approaching our next challenge.”

However the game’s team leader, Kenta Motokura seemed to hint that perhaps it could be for the Wii U because he mentioned that if it were released for the Wii U, the game might take advantage of the GamePad to help enhance the gameplay. In any case we guess we might have to wait a while until we learn more about the new Mario game, so until then stay tuned for more updates!

    Watch Every Nintendo and Super Nintendo Game Title Screen (in 12 Hours)

    Have you played every Nintendo and Super Nintendo game that ever was? Are you sure? Do you have a life? Well, you can check out these two videos which feature every title screen for every game made for the Nintendo and Super Nintendo and use them as a visual checklist if you want.

    Each title is included in alphabetical order. The video for the NES is three hours-long, while the Super Nintendo one is a whopping nine hours-long. With that kind of a time commitment, you might be better off just playing the games. However, it is a nice walk down memory lane.

    Do you recognize them all? Sadly, I remember most of them. I must have spent years worth of time playing these games, but I wouldn’t change a thing. Gaming was amazing in those days.

Having a relatively long lifespan, the venerable SNES obviously had its fair share of games released for the platform, and you can view the full title list here. What’s more amazing is, this particular compilation of all start screens for every single Super Nintendo Entertainment System game.

    Super Mario Connect 4: It’sa Me, Diagonally

    Times are tough for Nintendo. The Wii U is not selling very well. So maybe it is time to focus on old school games that don’t require a screen. Nintendo hasn’t ventured into the world of Connect 4 yet, so why not? I present to you Super Mario Connect 4.
