Sometimes, figure companies are so strange. Years go by without some decent merchandise for a game and suddenly, they're all making stuff for it. While this is not really the case of the Legend of Zelda franchise since there have been quite a lot merchandise for it, larger figure collectors have been shouting for years for a decent 1/6 action figure. And finally, Medicom comes through! Yes indeed, Medicom is releasing an 1/6 scale action figure of the Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword Link.

If you're familiar with the first Pokémon movie, you'll might remember Shellshocker. It was the nickname Neesha, one of the trainers that also fought Mewtwo, gave to her Blastoise. And Bandai/Tamashii has finally released pictures of this awesome water-type Pokémon! Edit: pre-orders are up!

As you probably know, Pokémon is one of those things that will be in my heart until I die. Both the games as the TV series had so many things that are just engraved in my mind. I mean, who doesn't remember that certain Pokémon that evolved to fast for Ash which resulted in some heartbreaking and hilarious situations. Not only was he the coolest end evolution of the three starter Pokémons, the basic form was also the most cute one to start with. So, you'll probably guess which one I always picked?

One of my childhood loves was Pokémon. I absolutely loved that series, the games and of course the movies. I remember well the first Pokémon movie. How can I not when I've seen it about 20 times in the movie theater. Who doesn't remember the awesome battle in the first movie? Or that hart-breaking moment when Ash sacrifices himself, turns to stone and Pikachu trying to revive him. I still get tears in my eyes when I watch that moment. And how can I not when I've listened to the soundtrack day after day. I even bought the VHS twice, one English spoken and one in Dutch. I've played them so many times that some parts had trouble playing. Same with the cd I'm afraid... I still love the series although I have to admit that I don't watch the series nor the movies anymore. Also the games lost some of the appeal the older ones had. But, I still love them and I still buy stuff like plush toys and things like that. And now, Bandai is going to release the most awesome VS couple ever! Indeed; Mewtwo and Mew are going at it again!

I know, Nendoronic is not really a word. Well, actually, it is a word but not one with an actual meaning. At least that is what you think since it makes perfect sense to me. Nendoronic is a Sonic Nendoroid (Nendoro = Nendoroid / Onic = Sonic). Nendoroid on the other hand isn't a word I made up, someone else beat me to it.

If you think of Nintendo licences most likely Mario or Kirby will pop up in your head. But there is also Metroid, one of the most ancient series in the Nintendo universe. Metroid on the NES shocked many gamers when the end credits were scrolling over the screen. The protagonist was a female, which was unseen at the time and left many gamers with an open jaw staring at the screen. But if you think back and give this a very good thought you can only come to the conclusion that it was insanely brilliant.
