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.
We’re less than two weeks out from the iPad launch, so it’s no surprise that a plethora of companies have begun revealing tidbits about their respective apps.

Today in Techland: We’re all a little sickish here in Techland, so we’re going to make this quick. Get well soon, everybody.

Made for anyone whose shameless Web presence was cut short due to family members infiltrating social media, this video has been gaining viral-levels of attention this week.
