No Demos for Opera DS Browser
I was never a particular fan of DS Demos. They never really fully showed of the DS Stylus controls potential. I want to start by saying I don’t think this would happen. I could totally frame this as a “I heard from a dude who was sitting in between a Nintendo employee and a snake [...]

Sega talks About Next Gen
Sega quote: Not a lot of third-party developers are even producing Nintendo Wii games. Uh oh… On the Nintendo Wii platform, we’ve got another Sonic game, completely different and built just for the controller and the new system. That’ll be shipping probably in March as well. And Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz will be a [...]
Z-rated Japan Games
Japanese now have gotten more strict since the Grand Theft Auto incident. The Computer Entertainment Supplier’s Association (CESA), the Japanese equivalent of the ESRB, has released the results of a survey regarding the effectiveness of its recently revised rating system for video games that was put into place on May 31.

Shareholders Against Nintendo Board
Stock has been lower lately on Nintendo. According to Japanese reports, shareholders have voted against a Nintendo board recommendation for the first time in the company’s history – although over plans to alter how dividends are paid, rather than for any market-related reasons. The board of the Kyoto-headquartered game giant had suggested a proposal that [...]

Casual Gamers Play More Than We Thought
Of course, this is based on PC gamers, not console gamers, but it is surprising, however. Casual gamers spend more time playing than previously thought, according to a new study by the Macrovision Network. According to the worldwide survey, over one-third of those who would be considered “casual� gamers have nine or more two-hour gaming [...]
Mario Statue Being Constructed…Out of Canned Food!
Oh geez, maybe we will see the 54K Mario Canned Food Statue in a few months! Why build an oversized statue of the world’s most famous video game star? Why not? Nintendo of Canada and Canstruction, a charity organization that uses design and architecture to fight hunger, are working together to build a 10-foot-tall statue [...]
Is Wii Missing Out?
An opinion of “what games can’t we play on the Wii� showed up on Nintendojo. I guess it is an insenuating point, but really, I don’t think there is a genre that the Nintendo Wii can’t accommodate for. I was thinking: everyone is all abuzz about how the Wii remote will let us play games [...]
Wii Wrist Bands
Strange, this is also from the Spanish meeting. Not only was pre-paid cards talked about for the Wii, but also there were wrist bands used. UPDATE: Okay! We give up! You win! I didn’t notice the wrist strap on Wii at E3, when apparently it was there the entire time, especially after some people started [...]
Interactive Wes Craven
No one is better than Wes Craven in horror movie…maybe except Stephen King! Ah, they’re both great!

At the [...]
