This isn't exactly news. You can't have a Nintendo console without a batch of games that can be prefixed with "another bloody". Especially Another Bloody Mario, Another bloody Mario Kart, Another Bloody Zelda and Another Bloody Metroid.

I've been saying this since the Gamecube, Nintendo need a new franchise!

Also agreed with St1ckM4n, a Pokemon MMO would be the biggest hit this decade!

mario who?
just kidding...

used to play it on nes, then super nes.
but my real loves are pacman and battle city.
I have them in my emulator.
and pacman (and/or ms pacman) is available also via dosbox.
