What’s Next?

This is a "calm" time for me right now, in terms of video games.  There's no HUGE title out there that I'm dying for, except for Pokémon Black and White 2, which doesn't even come out until June...  and if I want to understand anything in the game, the North American version isn't available until …

The PVGC Report

Yesterday was a long, exhausting, but awesome day!  JDubz and I took a road trip down to Philadelphia to participate in the Pokémon Video Game Championship Regional tournament.  I haven't been to Philly since I was a kid, so I was also hoping to sneak in some sight-seeing while we were down there. The registration …

PVGC Prep

Tomorrow is the Pokémon Video Game Championship Regional tournament!  AHHH!  I feel so unprepared.  I've been making a lot of changes since my last blog, when I posted my original team.  Since then I've realized that there were some legendary Pokémon who are NOT banned, so I figured I might as well use them!  Here's …

IT’S CRUNCH TIME!

Much to discuss today!  I've been so busy with the awesomeness that is Kid Icarus, I've barely had time to blog about all the other sweet games that are coming out soon.  And I haven't even talked about Mario Party 9, which I've been playing off and on for a while.  ZOMG!  Not to mention …

AR Card Fun!

Yesterday I was so excited!  The April issue of Nintendo Power had arrived!  I quickly flipped through the pages, because I knew something special was going to be inside this issue.  And there it was! An exclusive pack of Kid Icarus: Uprising AR cards, only for Nintendo Power subscribers!  WOW!  The 3 card pack contains …

Tournaments & Kid Icarus

Yesterday was quite the exciting day for tournaments!  Not only is the 2012 International Challenge ongoing this weekend for the Pokémon Global Battle Union, there was also a local tournament at at store called Play N Trade.  (I'm 0-3 in the International WIFI Challenge, btw.  Wah.) The local tournament was called Pokémon Battle Thru the …

Leaving PokéPark!

It was a short stay in PokéPark 2.  While the game was completely adorable, unfortunately it's time to go.  Don't worry Pikachu - I'll always have your save file! I've decided to trade in PokéPark 2 towards the purchase of Kid Icarus: Uprising at GameStop.  But don't get me wrong, PokéPark 2 was a lot …

Getting Psyched About Kid Icarus!

A brand new 3DS game is coming out next week - Kid Icarus: Uprising!  It's release date is 3/23 and there are quite a few launch events going on in NYC for this game.  Unfortunately I probably won't be able to go to these events (stupid work!).  Honestly, at first I wasn't even going to …

Finally Some ACCF News!

When this blog was first created back in 2008, this site was called the Shaolin Town Blog, and was dedicated solely to my Animal Crossing City Folk town.  For a long time it went on this way, until I basically beat the game and didn't have much to write about.  (Sad.)  Obviously now I decided …

PokéPark 2: Wonders Beyond!

Despite being a day late (thanks a lot for not sending your shipments to GameStop on time, Nintendo!) I finally got to playPokéPark 2 for the first time yesterday!  The game is BEYOND cute, and I really like it so far. You start off the game as Pikachu, much like the original title.  You go …
