‘Kinect Disneyland Adventures’ and ‘Mario 3D Land’ lead huge list of video games
New video games this week:
“Kinect Disneyland Adventures.” — Fresh off the excellent “Sesame Street: Once Upon a Monster,” the Kinect gets another family-friendly motion-control game to try to put another stake in the Nintendo Wii’s fading heart. This title, which seems like it’s part guided tour, part mini-game challenge collection, allows players to explore park attractions like Neverland and The Matterhorn while interacting with Disney characters, collecting rewards and competing in challenges. Rated E-10+ for Everyone 10 and Older. $50, for Xbox 360 Kinect.
“Super Mario 3D Land.” — The Nintendo 3DS has suffered from a lack of high-profile games; this one represents a wave of heavy-hitting titles for the system as we head into the holidays. The one, featuring Mario in a free-roaming 3-D world, has new enemies including Goombas with tails and ink-spitting Piranha Plants, but expect the same polished, mushroom-powered gameplay for which the portly plumber is famous. Rated E for Everyone, $40 for Nintendo 3DS.
