Hello again readers and gamers alike.
It's Labor Day, and we all know what we're supposed to do on labor day,
PLAY YOUR VIDEO GAMES UNTIL THE SUN GOES DOWN PEOPLE!!!!!
Oh, and sorry for the typo, Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass comes out October 1st.
Anyway, when you look at the last post, you see all the games and don't know what they are about, well, I'm about to tell you. Try to keep up.
So, I think I will start with The Legend of Zelda the Phantom Hourglass. In the Legend of Zelda the Phantom Hourglass, the storyline picks up where Wind Waker left off. Zelda resumed the name of Tetra, a pirate, and Link is part of the crew. Before long, Tetra, of course, is whisked off to the middle of nowhere for Link to rescue her. (How many games will have Zelda and Peach taken, wouldn't they be so used to it that they would know how to get out on their own?) So Link or you is riding in a customizable steam ship, and trying to find her. You eventually find out she is on an island that is basically a big dungeon. Now Zelda fans would know what dungeons are, but most people don't. A dungeon is an important place, where you usually do a whole bunch of stuff in order to get a few items, and defeat a boss. In this game, when you defeat a boss, you get an extra heart (health point) and some sand to go in your Phantom Hourglass. You have this item, and you use it to get into the dungeon. The more sand you have, the more time you can spend in this dungeon. When you eventually beat all the bosses you will have enough sand to spend time and find Zelda. Now, some people would say, so I don't even need to enter the dungeon until I have all the sand, therefore I could just do it all at one time. Wrong! You have to go inside the dungeon, in order to find a clue that tells you where you can go get a dungeon. And you have to do this until you find the last clue, defeat the last boss, and then have all the sand. See, it's a Zelda Game alright.
Donkey Kong Barrel Blast is a DK racing game. Donkey Kong is tied to two barrels that are rocket barrels, and you are racing along tracks using the Wii-mote to tilt yourself this way and that going through the course. This game was going to be a good by game for the Gamecube, but when they remembered the Wii was coming, they started saving it for the Wii. Still with me? Some courses are featured underwater, some are featured as a mine cart stage (seriously, what is a DK game without a Mine Cart stage?), and all the while trying not to die and collect as many bananas as you can. I'm so sorry if you can't keep up.
Battalion Wars II, this is a sequel to a Gamecube game that was a real time war based game, that allowed you to take direct control of your units and get your hands dirty in war, but not bloody. This game is rated T for Teen. Now you guys are probably saying to yourself, is CPU12 Mad?! No, I am not mad, this game is rated T, because your tanks and characters are just these adorable little people and cute little tanks. See what I mean? Although they're not that little kid looking. Are you guys holding up okay out there? If not, sorry! Just write a comment saying you can't hold up, and in future posts I'll lighten the speed a little bit. Now, something you didn't get to do last game, was directly target where you wanted to target, or get to use the Navy. Well, that all gets to change. Now aiming is easier, and the Navy is an important part of the arsenal of weapons and strategies at your command. Still with me?
There is not much information on Endless Ocean or Fire Emblem. But it seems that Endless Ocean is a game where you are in the ocean doing countless tasks, and learning about the animals and the whole ocean while having the video gaming everyone loves. Now Fire Emblem seems to be the original Fire Emblem that came out in Japan only, and now we have it, for the Wii of all things! Please don't quote me on that. I am not totally sure that is what Nintendo meant by that.
Super Mario Galaxies!! Oh you can just imagine what this one will be like.
I'm just kidding! This game is what you would expect from a Super Mario game and more. In this game, a comet passes over every hundred years, and rains down stardust on all the Mushroom Kingdom. Peach throws a celebration for the whole Kingdom, and Bowser attacks (How obvious was it gonna be that it would be Bowser?) So Peach gets kidnapped (again) and Mario goes to save her. Only one weird thing happened. Or should I say, awry thing happened. And Mario finds himself in space on millions of planetoids trying to save Peach still. Now, the magazine I was reading said they didn't want to give away the story, but they did tell us all that Mario gains a special new spin ability, that allows him to gain in air boosts, spin into enemies, block attacks, shoot back attacks, all the while collecting stardust from planet to planet.
Now, at the rate things are going you would probably think I was about to explain Super Smash Bros. Brawl next. Well, someone is doing that for me. So, just type in this link for weekday updates. Explore the site too.

Enjoyed your post and insightful descriptions of these future games. I hope you can leverage this creativity on projects of your own--you'd be a great writer or game designer.
Nice blog, man! (This is Nathan by the way...) I liked your description on Phantom Hourglass. I might just set up a blog myself...
