The retailer promises to buy back all copies of New Super Mario Bros. Wii for $30 if you purchase it from them, online, and trade it in by December 20, 2009. They're offering a similar promotion for Left 4 Dead 2 where you get $40 back if you trade it in by the same date.

In both cases, you're spending $20 plus tax to "borrow" a game for a little over a month.

Does that mean fully updated visuals for the HD generation?

You can judge for yourself. Microsoft posted first screens of the 360 version today at Xbox.com. Some gamers managed to assemble a few similar screenshots from the Wii version.

See if you can spot the differences in these comparison pics...

Because of this, he's now wanting to sue Nintendo for blocking him from using it.

He's claiming that he used to it to unlock characters in Mario Kart Wii. But he says some characters can only be unlocked by playing Super Mario Galaxy and believes that "Nintendo is forcing customers to buy another game to unlock one character in a different game." He may be pretty pissed off, but he better have a good lawyer if he even wants to touch Nintendo.

Valhalla Knights: Eldar Saga, which came out in September, only reached 16,000 units in North America.

Briefly alluded to at this year's E3, the new Zelda game is already known to be centred round the Wii's MotionPlus add-on, with the swordplay and archery that are mainstays in the series benefitting from the technology.
