How does this unwieldy accessory live up to gamers’ expectations? We tried it out on Resident Evil Revelations and here’s our review. The good news is that it genuinely does what it claims to do"
Davis from Denkiphile Gaming: "As 2012 comes to a close, we look back at the games released this year. While everyone wants to point out the obvious “best games,” there are others that stand out this year and deserve recognition. Here are the five highlights of the year for me, even if they aren’t the epic, Hollywood production titles everyone looked forward to all year."
Antm4n: "The Circle Pad Pro for the Nintendo 3DS came out on January 27 this year and I have only just bought one. At first I didn’t buy it because It was around £15 – £20 but I managed to pick one up for £5 in a game shop so I thought why not?"
GodisaGeek: "There have been many peripherals released for consoles over the years. Some have been fantastic and worth their weight in gold, but some have been absolutely shocking and a complete waste of time, effort and money.
Now a new peripheral for the Nintendo 3DS called the Circle Pad Pro has been released, which now has a second analogue stick and extra buttons to give it more of that control pad feel, and will also allow you to play different kinds of titles that you are more akin to play on a normal console. But is it any good?"
