Super Mario Maker Preview – The Basics

Its-a me, Mario… I mean Leon. We’ve just got a hold of a preview copy of Super Mario Maker and have decided to share with you some special preview footage from the game. We’ll be uploading new clips a couple times over the coming weeks until Super Mario Maker is released on the 11th September. We also hope to have our review up and running right before the game releases.

For now, let us show you some of the basics of Super Mario Maker from when you first boot up the game!

Splatoon – Is Locked Content Upon Release Good?

Splatoon is Nintendo’s unique take on the shooter genre (a game which we gave an 8.5 in our review). Those of you who got hold of the game from launch may remember that Splatoon was a bit lacking in content for the online multiplayer. The game launched only with one online mode and two maps. On a weekly basis, Nintendo has been unlocking new content for the game however, this ranged from new weapons to new maps, and even some new modes.

Was this idea of locking away a lot of content from launch beneficial for Splatoon though? Find out what we think after the break!

Summer Splat-athon – Quarter-Final Results

Greetings cephalopods and humanoid creatures of the world! As you may or may not know (you better know bub) we’ve been hosting the August Splat-athon supreme over at 3DS Buzz. Well, we’ve just had an exhilarating quarter-finals, even Judd was impressed, and not even Cat-fish Supreme Wednesdays impress him any more!

The quarter finals were played by two teams, as we had an odd number of squid kids, one team had four players whereas the other had three. The teams battled against each other in two rounds of Turf Wars, the players with the lowest scores were then shooed away from the tourney with a large bottle of Seaman’s Soy Sauce! Two players from the team of four and one from the team of three were eliminated.

The results are now in and from Team Splat, Pepe and Lis4Real25 will be going to the semi-finals, and from Team Toon, Cadjr2003 and Homer Fanboy will also be progressing forwards!

Congratulations to those who played the best and see you in the Semis, and until next time…

STAY FRESH!

TOURNEY – Summer Splat-athon Supreme

What’s this? Yet another tournament? It seems like August is the month of tourneys, and what’s better than to compete in style and ink with Splatoon. A couple months ago, I announced this tournament (which isn’t technically a NintyBuzz one) but now I can officially announce when the tourney will start.

I plan to start the tournament on Wednesday, 12th August 2015. Please note that this is the start date, different battles may take place on different days up to the end of August. I can also announce that the winner of the tournament will also receive a free Amiibo of their choice as well as boasting rights. The deadline to register for the tournament will be Friday 7th August 2015 at 6pm BST.

Please click here to sign up for the tournament (you will need to create a free account at 3DS Buzz first).

Happy Splatting!
