The first shipment of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D will be "extremely small" in Japan.

According to Adriasang: "the first shipment for Zelda will be 'extremely small.' Nintendo is not allowing retailers to place orders for the game and allotments are going to be small for all retailers, small and large."


So I recommend you pre-order or you may have to wait for the 3D remake of the classic N64 game!

As for me, I can't... my bank acount is practically dead after 3DS! I hope you're happy Nintendo!!! But I will get it at some point so you won't need to worry too much!

ONE single Resident Evil: Revelations screenshot.

Capcom have decided, for no apparent reason, to release ONE screenshot of Resident Evil: Revelations... why only one I don't know but it's nice so here it is:

The game is still under devopment and will be released in 2012. So a long wait... but if you can't wait then there is a demo for Revelations in The Mercinaries which is out this summer!

New Mega Man Legends: 3 screenshots.

All the Bit. Trip games will be re-made in 3D and realesed on the 3DS.

Gaijin Games have confirmed that all of the Bit.Trip games will be re-made in 3D for the 3DS. I love the Bit. Trip series and I can't wait to play them in 3D! But I would like to show you an example... imagine these two games in 3D:


Game #1, Runner:

This game would be perfect for 3D! Look at how the gold sort of explodes towards you. Now imagine that in 3D. Another brilliant example of how 3D would improve this game is the Space Worms. Skip to around 00:29 and you'll see 'em! They are those things Comander Video is sliding under. In 3D these would pop out of the screen! I can't wait!

Game #2, Fate:

I can't really explain how the 3D in this game would work... rather then things popping out at you it's more of a sense of depth. A sense of background and foreground!



I can't wait but how do you feel about these games being re-made in 3D?

Rabbids Invade the Royal Wedding.

Oh Rabbids, you always show up where you're NOT WELCOME! Like my Living Room for example (as I'm sure you've noticed I don't really like the Rabbids)!
But some of the videos on YouTube are funny! This is alright but not the best of the lot! So now, NGN presents: The Rabbid's latest outing!

NGN’s how to... value Pokémon cards.

I couldn't resist writing a new how-to so here is a guide on how to value Pokémon cards!:

There are a few key factors to look out for when valuing/selling Pokémon cards. And these factors are:

1)      The card number: at the bottom right of the card is the card number. It is important to know this number because of the difference between Promo and Prime cards. Promo cards are cards that were sold with a tin. So they would be at the top of the tin when you buy it. Prime cards are much rarer and are worth more! But more on that soon.

2)      Is the card shiny? If it is then it would naturally be worth more than non-shiny cards.

3)      Look at the condition of the card. The better the condition the more value that card holds.

4)      What character is the card? Sometimes, more popular cards sell for more. So for example Pikachu is a very popular Pokémon. So a Pikachu card would be worth more than an Unown (as an example).

5)      Identify if the card is a Promo or Prime card. Now not all cards are Promo or Prime. So for example there is such thing as a shiny Typhlosion Promo and a shiny Typhlosion Prime. Prime being the rarer of the two. So how would you identify if the card is Promo or Prime? Well look at the picture! The one on the right is a Promo and the one on the left is a Prime. So if a card has a star at the bottom right saying “Promo” then it’s a (guess what) Promo card. If the card has its game’s symbol(s) then it’s a Prime (in this case the Typhlosion is a Heartgold/Soulsilver card so it has the HG/SS symbol) and is rarer than the Promo.

6)      Is it a Movie Card? Because Movie cards are EXTREMLY rare especially first Movie cards! So if you have a card that says: “The first Pokémon Movie!” on it then it’s rare! VERY rare!

So now you know the basics. There is just one more step and then we’re done:

Value the cards: the best way to do this is ebay. Type in the name of the Pokémon card, whether it’s a Prime, Promo or Movie Card, and its card number. So I want to value Typhlosion Prime. So I type in: Typhlosion Prime #110. Then I see how much Typhlosion is going for. So the average value of Typhlosion Prime is about 4-5 pounds! You can do this with any card! Hope this has helped! Also have a read of my: how to catch shiny Pokémon guide! BYE!  

NGN’s how to... Get shiny Pokémon in Pokémon Black/White!

Getting a shiny  Pokémon is a rare occasion. And when you do get one it’s not very likely you’ll get many more. But I have a little how to guide on how to get more of ‘em!

Let’s start with the basics:

A shiny Pokémon is a different coloured form of a Pokémon. Each Pokémon has a shiny form (apart from legendaries like Victini, Reshiram, Zekrom etc.). However, getting a shiny form of a Pokémon is EXTREMELY difficult to do because the chances of getting a shiny Pokémon are 1 in 8,192! So these are pretty rare little buggers we’re talking about! Another thing you should know is that some Pokémon’s shiny forms are very similar to their normal form. For example: a Pichu’s shiny form is only a little bit darker yellow (see picture, the one on the right is shiny and the one on the left is a normal spiky eared one, which is just a different form of Pichu.). 

Methods:

There are a few good methods to catching/obtaining shiny Pokémon:

1)     1)  Walk around in the long grass for ages and try to find a shiny Pokémon. However this is very time consuming and is a terrible method for catching shiny ‘mon! Because, as I said before, the chances of getting a shiny are 1 in 8,192! So don’t use this method!!!

2)      2) Trade. Ask your friends for a shiny (if they have one) but they probably won’t let you have it. But this “method” actually works quite well! Because some people on GTS or GTS Negotiations don’t notice that they have a shiny. Because like I said, some Pokémon have shiny forms that are very similar to their normal form. So you could get yourself a good deal! I once ALMOST got a shiny Sandile for a level 1 Zorua! I say almost because just as the trade started, my Wi-Fi cut out! GRRRRRRR!

3)      3) Hack. No don’t hack! It defeats the object of collecting shiny Pokémon and makes it too easy! Life is boring without a challenge so DON’T HACK!

4)      4) Masuda Method. This method is named after Pokémon’s producer: Junichi Masuda, who created the method. And this is THE BEST method for getting shiny ‘mon! It is done by breeding a foreign Pokémon with a native Pokémon. So the best thing to do is get a foreign Ditto (from Japan maybe). So go on GTS, search “Ditto” select the country as “Japan” (or something) and trade away! Okay so now you have your Japanese Ditto. Select a Pokémon you want to have a shiny form of (but you have GOT to be the Original Trainer!). In this case we’ll go with Zorua just as an example. Then go to the Day Care at Route 3 (see picture).

 

      Now put the Ditto and Zorua together in the Day Care and leave. Now go to Striaton City, but don’t go all the way in, just wait until the writing at the top of the screen saying “Straiton City” comes and fades away. Once the writing fades away, pass the day care, if the guy calls you over then you have an egg, if not then perform the same thing over and over again until he gives you an egg. This is called “re-setting the area”. The best thing to do is select a box in your computer, collect eggs and put them all in the box, only when you have half a box full of eggs go out and hatch them! So you have your half a box full, now you need to hatch your eggs! But first you need a Pokémon with Flame Body as its ability (like Larvesta, Volcarona, Slugma, Rapidash etc.), this halves the time it will take to hatch the eggs (if you have that Flame Body Pokémon on your team). So now put the Flame body Pokémon in your team and go to Castelia Bridge! Now just cross the bridge over and over until your eggs hatch! So now, when the eggs hatch, the chances of the newly hatched Pokémon being a shiny is reduced from 1 in 8,192 to 1,365.3, about 6 times more likely! So just repeat this process over and over until you have a shiny! I got my Shiny Emboar like this (there he is in the picture! Looks awesome huh?)!

And that’s all you need to know about shiny Pokémon! I hope this guide has helped! Goodbye and happy hunting!
