In what is surely a slap to the face to early adopters of Nintendo’s DSi (itself just an enhanced version of the DS Lite, itself just an enhanced version of the DS) Nintendo has the gall to announce an updated, significantly larger version of the DSi.

Michael Pachter, the videogame industry’s favourite analyst has spoken again. Analysts, for whom it is apt to have the word “anal” in their titles on account of the amount of faecal matter that they spew from their mouths, sometimes do actually get things right – and I suspect this will be one of those times.

This is yet another feeble attempt by Nintendo to prevent users from running legitimate hombrew – like the DVDX …

First up I think it’s about time Sony gave these things a name. The most common name for their upcoming motion controller is The Wand but I have heard some of the dev’s calling it The Globe and to be honest I prefer that one. Anyway at TGS this morning Kaz Hirai has been giving the keynote speech and one …
