A 24-year-old woman apparently fell off her Wii Fit Balance Board and the injuries she sustained resulted in “persistent sexual arousal syndrome,” according to UK tabloid Daily Star. Sensational! Far be it for a tabloid to print sensational news (*cough*). This story must be 100% accurate.
Amanda Flowers was diagnosed with

It really makes us wonder why Nintendo even bothered to send over a DSi XL to US press the day before Nintendo Japan’s 3DS announcement less than 24 hours later. Yes, I know the DSi XL has been available in Japan for quite a while, but I’m just saying.
Details are skant, but the 3DS will offer gamers a 3D experience on the …
While at GDC, Techland was lucky enough to get a one-on-one interview with Reggie Fils-Aime, president of Nintendo of America. As we talked about his take on the threat of Playstation Move, Reggie showed off a little bit of the swagger that’s made him a sometime-controversial figure in the games business. We also discussed why and when …
So our Nintendo DSi XL was delivered today accompanied by a 10-foot sub from Delfonte’s of Brooklyn. I’m pretty sure it’s more than 93 percent larger than your standard sub.
Evan had the March 28th date pegged a month ago, but here it is straight from the source. Nintendo has officially announced that the DSi XL will be available at the end of the month for $190.
The big difference (pun intended) between the currently-available DSi and the impending DSi XL is the DSi XL’s 4.2-inch screen size versus the

We’re in the thick of Video Game Award Season, with the IGF and GDC awards next week. Lots of deserving games will win nice shiny awards. But what about the bottom-dwellers? Where’s their recognition? Let us introduce The Crashies.
We are, of course, taking some inspiration from the Razzies. Also known as the Golden Raspberry …
Nintendo’s been keeping folks in suspense as to when we’d be able to get our hands on their announced first-party titles and the embiggened version of their handheld, the DSi XL. But, it’s time to update your calendars, because the Japanese video game juggernaut’s finally divulged info on its upcoming releases. The highlights …
Why is it good news that Cartoon Network’s Batman-and-everyone-you-can-think-of-including-Black-freaking-Canary series will be playable on Wii and DS this fall? Because it’s the next step in the redemption of Aquaman, that’s why. The Brave and The Bold TV show manages an awesome mix of sharp action and hilarious dialogue, featuring …
I would have never guessed it, but Nintendo dominated the last decade taking nine of the top 10 spots of best selling video games. The only title to crack the top 10 was Rockstar’s “Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas” with 18.15 million units sold, which pales in comparison to the 58.4 million copies of Wii Sports that were sold. The …
…and this picture of a black Wii isn’t it. According to this report from the 13th Annual Japan Media Arts Festival in Tokyo over the weekend, Shigeru Miyamoto confirmed Nintendo is working on a new piece of gaming hardware. Unless he was talking about another Nintendo DS redesign (DSi XXL?), Miyamoto was referring to a next generation …
This is a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black.
Nintendo President Satoru Iwata had this to say about the Apple iPad, “It was a bigger iPod Touch” and that it delivered “no surprises.” Umm. Correct me if I’m wrong, Iwata-san, but isn’t that exactly what the DSi XL is? I initially pooh-poohed the iPad, but it …
Because the extinction of Giga Pets, Nano Babies and Tamagotchis (plus all similarly pointless knock-offs) wasn’t enough of a clue…
Introducing Pokewalkers!
