 In response to our friends and site patrons, we have come to the decision to expand our coverage of classic Nintendo games to also cover Arcade games. I myself am a collector of both, but also found myself spending more time and money towards the fading arcade scene. We are still behind our schedule in getting content for all 764 classic Nintendo games on our must cover list. 

Starting in a few weeks, we will have Adam Shelton on board to assist us in this goal. He will be taking the lead on the classic Nintendo section, while I will be working on new design and templates for the new Arcade history sections. This way we can start working toward both goals. Cristy Carnes will still be our head editor for both sections. She is also the author of many of our factual reviews on our games. Adam will be writing for us and working on server side scripting to assist in keeping the site moving, and keeping the online playable games working and bug free. 

We do not have any current plans to put the original arcade games up for online play due to programing issues and the high expense of collecting arcade boards. If you have arcade PCB's, working or not, that you would like to donate to the "Free the Arcade" cause, please drop us an email and mail the boards to 207 5th St. Poplar Bluff, MO. Please write "IN CARE OF 'FREE THE ARCADE'" on the outside of the package. The section will not be available for a few months. We want to thank all that have donated games, and memorabilia from the history of Nintendo, and we still need your help with that. We are now asking for help from those arcade enthusiasts out there. We could really use some high resolution scans of marquees, side art, bezels, instruction manuals, and schematics. Thanks again to all of our fans, and those who keep playing the classics

Late part of 2009, Nintendo has finaly released a remake worthy of its original. Monster Games developed the earlier title of Excitetruck, which was not reviewed or liked by our staff at 1Up Game. With that said, the same company hit a homerun with the release of Excitebike: World Rally. The game is available on the 9th of November for download via WiiWare. The game keeps the feel of the great 2D world that we love, but gave it some light 3D boosts. They did all of this and kept the framerates up at 60, creating a very visualy smooth, and addictive game. We look forward to reviewing and playing, and playing, and well, playing this game over and over again to see if we can even find one bad element to it.

New Super Mario Bros. Wii was released on November 15, 2009 and was easily one of the most highly anticipated games of the year. The game combines the classic side scrolling gameplay found in Super Mario Bros. 1, 2, & 3 and Super Mario World with the newer features and additions found in New Super Mario Bros. for the DS plus some extras. Elements of almost every Mario game can be found here like power-ups, costumes, warp pipes, and even Yoshi, but there hasn't ever been a cooperative play side-scrolling Mario game until now. The game can be played solo or with up to three friends for extra multi-player fun. Friends can even jump out and back in if they need to skip a hard part and let their buddy get past it. As an added twist, players can pick up each other. This can lead to helping your buddy up to a high platform or even tossing them off a cliff to their death.
