WatchMePlay FFVIII PS1 Let’s Play Part 0 for Final Fantasy 8 (FF8).
Welcome to the initial installment of my FF8 Let’s Play! Need the text for the full tutorial and Squall’s PC in Final Fantasy VIII? Here it is as I go screen-by-screen. We also listen to the amazing opening credit music and watch the awesome CG intro, and play up to the point where we reach Ifrit in the Fire Cavern. I also use Scan Magic on both Quistis and Squall to read what it says about both main characters.
After this initial installment, we will magically hop to the point wherein we get Irvine, which is where I initially started recording this LP. However I plan on going back and filling in those previous sections, which I will link to when they are up. They won’t be numbered however, as the Let’s Play where I get Irvine is “Part 1”.

WatchMePlay Fire Emblem Awakening 3DS Let’s Play Part 8.
In part 8 we head to the Colossuem which proves to be an extremely tough mission where we are surrounded by foes. This leads to the death of many of the main characters! Of course, not permadeath. Even though I have permadeath on, I restart to ensure they aren’t actually dead-dead. Read the rest of this entry »

Press Release
By popular demand, The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses concert series is returning with “Season 2” to eight cities from last year’s tour and is coming soon to even more locations in North America. Based on one of the most popular and beloved video game series of all time, the tour features live orchestral performances of theme music from Nintendo’s The Legend of Zelda franchise.
This is what it looks like in person!
The newly announced The Legend of Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses Season 2 Tour Dates include: Atlanta Georgia on June 6th @ Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre; San Francisco California on June 10th @ Louise M. Davies Symphony Hall; L.A. on June 12th @ The Greek Theatre; Montreal Quebec Canada on June 14th @ Place des Arts; Austin Texas on June 29th @ Long Center; Philadelphia Pennsylvania on July 25th @ The Mann Center For the Performing Arts; Baltimore Maryland on July 27th @ Joseph Meyerhoff Symphony Hall; Toronto Ontario Canada on September 7th @ Sony Centre For the Performing Arts; Seattle Washington State on September 12th @ Benaroya Hall; And Grand Rapids Michigan on October 19th @ Devos Performance Hall!
In cities where the tour will be returning, audiences can expect to experience breathtaking new material exploring additional chapters from The Legend of Zelda franchise, along with traditional performances of the show’s now-classic repertoire from last season.
The name “Symphony of the Goddesses” refers not only to the concert program but also to the four-movement symphony recounting the classic storylines from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess and The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. The performance also will highlight orchestral renditions of music from other games in the series, including The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening, The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask and The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks.
Eímear Noone will conduct the full orchestra with arrangements by music director Chad Seiter, and the evening will be hosted by concert producer and lead creative Jeron Moore.
Guests will relish their favorite moments from the now-27-year-old series, carefully and beautifully timed with a gorgeous orchestral score approved by Nintendo sound director and Zelda franchise composer Koji Kondo. The concert is a festive experience for all walks of fans, many of whom attend “cosplaying” as their favorite characters.
“The demand for Zelda is amazing, and this special concert will deliver an unforgettable experience for fans,” notes Jason Michael Paul, CEO of Jason Michael Paul Productions, which is producing the concert tour. “These performances transcend culture and geography and unite people through a common love for this venerable and legendary series.”
Fans can view a complete tour schedule with ticketing information, and also sign up for a regularly updated digital newsletter, at Zelda Symphony.com. Club Nintendo members can enjoy an exclusive 15 percent discount to the show by logging into their accounts and looking for the discount code on the Symphony of the Goddesses banner.

I absolutely CANNOT WAIT to attend this concert series. I previously attended the VideoGamesLive Concert Symphony Orchestra and it was INCREDIBLE. One of the best music experiences I’ve ever had. This year I hope to attend not only Zelda: Symphony of the Goddesses but also the Final Fantasy: Distant Worlds concerts, both of which will be in California this summer. I live in Phoenix, Arizona, so it’s not unreasonable to drive to my neighboring state to check out the concert! I hope you can make it! Time for me to get a job NOW and start saving! :D

Even with big WiiU titles this year, is 2013 the year of the 3DS?
Will 2013 be the year of the 3DS? Where sales really take off and get huge?
Nintendo thinks that will be the case, and many fans agree. After a very slow start and a forced price-cut for the 3DS system… A portable that many thought would fail… Nintendo has turned the situation entirely around with a deluge of outstanding titles including The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D, Mario Kart 7, Kid Icarus: Uprising, Pokemon Rumble, Super Mario 3D Land, Fire Emblem: Awakening, Paper Mario: Sticker Star and Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon. And much more will be coming this year which should prove to be a banner year for the system.
Nintendo plans to really push things off with an extensive advertising and marketing campaign for the 3DS. Nintendo UK’s Marketing and PR Director Shelly Pearce had the following to say,
“3DS has really come into its own over the last two years. The 2013 software line-up is the strongest we’ve ever had and combined with a diverse back-catalog that includes both Nintendo favorites like Mario, Professor Layton and Zelda as well as titles like Kid Icarus and Heroes of Ruin or New Style Boutique, there really is something for everyone.”
Nintendo’s 3DS product manager Roger Langford also stated the following:
“You can expect to see extensive sampling, heavy weight TV campaigns, significant online activity and a focus on building communities via social media and events.”
Hopefully the Wii U will get this amount of support for the latter part of this year and leading into next year as well. It’s a good time to be a Nintendo fan!
Screenshots of Zelda: Link to the Past 3DS! This is The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past like you’ve never seen it before! All of these are official screens straight from Nintendo, enjoy!
Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D will be released on May 24th 2013 in America announced Nintendo via Nintendo Direct. As previously reported, the game is an updated version of the Wii modern-classic, that has been remastered to take full advantage of the stereoscopic 3D graphics of the 3DS.
This really makes the game pop and makes the jumping from the foreground to the background and other perspectives much more pronounced. New additions will include an Easy Mode, and a couple of other things. More soon.
