Sidemeat – 34th Slice
Slice 34 takes a critical look at what I feel is some very bizarre and unhealthy subtext underlying the Diary of a Wimpy Kid book series.

Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars – SNES
Super Mario RPG could’ve turned out so wrong, but the result is so right. With an ingenious blend of classical Mario and RPG elements, this game delivers on all fronts with an awesome story, characters, gameplay, music and graphics. A must play.

Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash – Wii U
Mario’s ventures into the world of tennis have always been one of his more well-respected spin-offs, so it would make sense to expect great things with the release of Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash for the Wii U. However, while the game looks beautiful, it’s criminally shy of engaging content.

Mario Party 10 – Wii U
And the party rages on with Mario Party 10 for the Wii U, the 14th installment of the series overall. With a total of 3 different modes to party on with, it’s one of the most appealing entries in the series to date.

Nanashi no Game – Nintendo DS
Nanashi no Game, or, “The Nameless Game”, curses all who play it to die in seven days. Unless you can solve the mystery of why, of course. Good luck!

Raptor: Call of the Shadows – PC
Raptor: Call of the Shadows is a scrolling shooter title that pits you up against countless enemy ships with only one goal in mind, to make as much cash blowing them to smithereens as possible. Its initial difficulty curve may be hard for newer players to grasp, but if you hold out and upgrade your weapons judiciously, you’ll likely find it an enjoyable game.

Super Mario Bros: The Movie: The Game – NES
The game based off the movie based off the game. Super Mario Bros the Movie the Game is a black eye on the Nintendo franchise. Can you find your way through Brooklyn to the other dimension to beat Dennis King Koopa Hopper to rescue Princess Daisy before you commit suicide??

Virtual Boy Wario Land – Virtual Boy
We love the Virtual Boy here at Nerd Bacon. Or at least the mental case ZB does, anyway. See why he’s lost coherence and brain function as you read his review of Virtual Boy Wario Land for…you know what console. And it’s out just in time for the game’s 20th anniversary!

Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune – PS3
A birthplace for one of modern gaming’s icons, Uncharted is definitely an interesting product of our time. Does this treasure hunting, guns blazing experience hold up? Or is it as stale as Sir Francis Drake’s corpse?
-
Backyard Baseball 2003 – PC
I’m reviewing a game today that is as alive in my heart as the moment I touched it at five years old. Does it hold up? Or was five year old me just a stupid kid with no grip on what games were good? YOU DECIDE!
