Nintendo's Cooking Guide: Can't Decide What To Eat?, their latest title to attract the non-gamer to the DS. Should gaming sites actually be reviewing this? It's not really a game, but nevertheless intrigue got the better of the guys at IncGamers.
Nintendo gamers in South Africa will be spoilt for choice over the coming months. In addition to the Wii receiving a price cut here and Wii Fit Plus and New Super Mario Bros. Wii arriving in the next two months, a whole bunch of new games for both the Wii and the DS will be arriving on SA's sunny shores in late October/early November.
It's Tuesday, 30th December 2008 – the sixth day of Christmas. And that, of course, means it's time for the sixth instalment in The Twelve Games of Christmas. A feature series running on each of the twelve days of Christmas here at Electronic Theatre, The Twelve Games of Christmas aims to highlight some of the industry's top achievers of 2008, running through one month's worth of disc-based releases everyday. Today, we look at June 2008, and give you the top-picks for those January sale bargains!
Telegraph writes: "When the new Nintendo Cooking Guide was launched recently for £29, some claimed that it would make the traditional cookbook forever obsolete. Given that I am something of a cookbook fetishist – there are almost as many books in our kitchen as our library – I was not an obvious candidate for conversion. But with Christmas approaching, and a mountain of cooking ahead of me, any means of getting ahead of the game was more than welcome.
The first serious hurdle was wrenching the boys' portable Nintendo DS console from their sweaty and reluctant fists. Having eventually succeeded, I was confronted – after inserting the disc – by a cartoon chef, the animated figure that guides you through the game. He is a short, round, nursery-teacher sort of a soul, clapping his podgy hands and crooning "Well done!" as you make it to the end of each set of instructions – a weird combination of Mario and Antony Worrall Thompson. "
I LOLed at the Vegetarian comment. Hahaha.
Still, there are vegetarians that eat fish, egg and drink milk... I mean, they're not *vegetables*, so where to draw the line? All subjective =)
Except vegans, they'r more logic.
Weird title. Its pretty much an untouched territory but I am not sure cooking and gaming combine well this way.
