My Nintendo tee-shirts

My first Tee-shirt I ordered from the old Nintendo official magazine in the UK over a year ago, British game store gamestation now stocks this teeshirt (except its green in the one by me) among others, they sell for £9.99.

My second Nintendo Teeshirt was an absolutely lucky find, I found this tucked away at the back of a sales rail at a Bhs (british home store) which is a british home and clothing store which I would not normaly be in, but my sister was getting some school uniform. Any how, it was £7 and tucked away behind some little britain teeshirts.

My most recent teeshirt came from my local gamestation, which by the way is the largest game store here in the UK, although it is yet to be listed on there site. Please email us with your teeshirts so we can feature them on the site, if I get any more I will let you know.

Wii launch info at Leipzig expo???

now before you jump to conclusions that this is pure speculation, note that this scan is from the first issue of Ngamer which was formally known as NGC, which was the magazine which in last November revieled that Twilight princess will be playable on the Wii (then revolution).
Plus here is sum little Metroid prime 3 snipets, with Multiplayer!!!Im sorry if you cant read the images if not please veiw our Flikr account where the pictures are in much larger resolutions.
I havnt had a chance to look all through the magazine but if i find anything more I will post it, so stay tuned.

Nintendo you cheeky buggas. *Update* im sold

First read nintendo's press release, the start is rather funny but it does make you want to hit who-ever wrote it;

The fourth quarter of 2006 will herald a new era for Nintendo with the launch of its remarkable new Wii™ home video game system. But that’s not what this news item is about! How could that be, you ask? Perhaps the secret to the launch information for Wii is somehow encoded in the text of this news item. You might want to pore over it for a few hours before staying up all night to debate phraseology and comma placement with your friends online. Or maybe it’s all just a scam to get you to read the other games we have launching this fall. One of the two.

As the weather cools down, the Nintendo portable game offerings heat up. FINAL FANTASY® V ADVANCE makes its way to Game Boy® Advance SP on Nov. 6. As series go, FINAL FANTASY is to video games what James Bond is to movies. FINAL FANTASY loyalists will enjoy an opportunity to debate which installment was best.

Nintendo DS™ owners are the big winners. Every week or so, another huge DS title hits, from the Touch Generations title Clubhouse Games™ to fan favorites like Elite Beat Agents™ and Yoshi’s Island™ 2. Clearly a gamer’s idea of paradise, here is Nintendo’s upcoming DS lineup:

Oct. 9: Clubhouse Games™
Oct. 16: Nintendogs™ (Dalmatian)
Oct. 23: Magical Starsign™
Oct. 30: Pokémon® Ranger
Oct. 30: Children of Mana®
Nov. 6: Elite Beat Agents™
Nov. 13: Yoshi’s Island™ 2
Dec. 4: Custom Robo™ Arena
Dec. 4: Kirby™ Squeak Squad

And, for Nintendo GameCube™ owners, The Legend of Zelda®: Twilight Princess will be available for you this fall. An enhanced version also will be a launch title for Wii. That will all happen on … Oh look, we’re out of space
so... what does this all meen well an article on joystick makes an interesting point;
The fourth quarter begins on October 1. Now look at the list. At least one game is released every Monday in the fourth quarter except for the following dates: October 2, November 20 and November 27. November 27 is after Black Friday, so it's out. November 20 is after the launch of the PS3, so that's out too. That leaves us with October 2. The Wii will launch on October 2.
so october the 2nd it is (for now)

*update* Found this on some boards, if you write WII in roman numerals it becomes VVII or 552 as seem as the 2 Vs are apart of the same letter we will take it as 10 (5+5) so that leaves us with 10/2 or october the tenth month on the second day, OMG this is more than a coincidence.

wii get our lightsabers

well not exactly but here is the trailer for the upcoming "heroes" from killer 7 creators suda51 for the wii

Targets, profits and a DS every 2 seconds

next-gen.biz reports;
The continuing success of DS has encouraged Nintendo to reforecast its profits for the year ahead, up from $556 million to $711 million. The company says it expects to sell 6 million Wii consoles and 17 million Wii games this financial year.
Image
The company announced today that its profits for its first quarter were up 10 percent on strong sales of DS, boosted by DS Lite. Net income was up to 15.6 billion yen ($134 million) in the three months ended June 30, from $120 million yen this time last year.

The firm says it now expects sales of $5.4 billion as opposed to $5.11 billion.

For the quarter ended June 30, Nintendo sold 4.54 million DS and DS Lite units, up from 1.38 million last year. Sales of DS software titles rose from 5.3 million to 18.4 million.

Analyst Jay Defibaugh from Credit Suisse in Tokyo said, "On the handheld side they've been enormously successful with the touch-generation approach. The most recent data shows there has been an improvement in the North American market, with the introduction of DS Lite.''

Nintendo boss Satoru Iwata said that the company is selling machines as fast as it can make them.

On Wii, Nintendo maintained its forecast of 6 million consoles and 17 million games sold by March 2007.

Also it was anounced that 21 million DS's have been sold since its launch, that equates to one every 2 seconds that means that since you started reading this article about 45, no... 46 no... 47 DS's have been sold, now its 50 annnnnnd 51, and so on, 52.

Nintendo Wii controler fully explained

I got an Email off a Steko which stated;

I saw an add for this site in the lobby of the local movie theater. I hadn't seen the site before and wondered if you had. Seems to be fairly authoritative. Who ever wrote it is either a fanboy or an employee of Nintendo.

Thanx Steko for the very informative link.

ign reveal wiimote secrets

some interesting points about how the mote will work. link

Wii Controllers: Unlocking the Secrets
Battery and power specifics, SYNCHRO functionality, rumble motor details, LED secondary purpose and… a camera?

July 14, 2006 - The Big N has been relatively hush-hush about the details of its innovative new Wii console and controller, choosing to release information during major events and then going quiet on the subject. But in official Wii developer documentation obtained by IGN, the company defines many of the hardware specifics and functionalities for its upcoming Wii controllers. We have some of those revelations below.

One of the big questions about the Wii-mote has remained how it will be powered. Official documentation on the topic offers some answers. The pointer will accept two AA alkaline batteries, which will keep it going for a considerable amount of time. If the precision aim functionality of the pointer is being used in games, the device will run for approximately 30 hours. If only the accelerometer functionality is being utilized, the Wii-mote will operate for 60 hours on two AA batteries.

The controller communicates with the Wii console via Bluetooth technology on a 2.4GHz band.

The Wii-mote features 6KB of "non-volatile" memory, whose exact purpose remains a mystery. IGN Wii speculates that this throwaway memory could possibly be used in conjunction with the Wii-mote's recently revealed internal speaker. It's also possible that this memory could enable players to store custom settings for the controller. However, official documentation does not specify one way or the other. In fact, Nintendo is currently offering developers no means to interact with the controller's internal speaker despite showing off games such as The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, which spotlighted the hardware feature at E3 2006 in Los Angeles.

Recent photos of the Wii console's front flap showcase a button called SYNCHRO, whose purpose seems fairly obvious. The SYNCHRO button is, according to documentation, used to identify Wii controllers that can be used with the console. It assigns each controller a wireless ID number. Evidently gamers first press the SYNCHRO button on the console itself and then find and press another SYNCHRO button located inside the battery compartment of the Wii controller. Documentation also suggests that gamers can hold down the 1 and 2 buttons on the Wii-mote to accomplish the same task.

All of the buttons on the Wii controller are digital in nature. This includes (obviously) the D-Pad, as well as A, B, 1, 2, -, +, Power and SYNCHRO. The C and Z buttons on the nunchuk unit are also digital.

The sensor bar that interacts with the Wii-mote must be placed "above or below" the television set. The bar itself is about 20 centimeters in diameter and features two sensors, one on each end.

The Wii-mote's LEDs serve two roles. The first is to show which player is communicating with the console at a given moment. Player 1 will light up on the far left, Player 2 the next over, and so on. The second purpose is to illustrate battery life. Upon booting up, four LEDs blink when the controller has between 75% and full power. Three LEDs blink to show 50% and 75% power. Two LEDs blink to show 25% and 50% power. And one LED blinks to illustrate anything below that.

The Wii-mote features a built-in rumble motor that can be turned on or off. It does not offer varying degrees of rumble sensitivity. However, according to documentation, more intense vibrations can be simulated if developers rapidly trigger the motor on and off.

Light sources from fluorescent and halogen lamps, plastic, mirrors and more may occasionally interfere with the pointer, based on official documentation. To eliminate this interference, the pointer must identify the sensor bar and mark its two coordinates. When pointing with the Wii-mote, the unit is actually interacting with the sensor bar, which then translates data to the television, in effect simulating a direct aim to the television.

Interestingly, according to documentation the Wii-mote is able to act as something of an eye, measuring coordinates between 0-1023 on the X axis and 0-767 on the Y axis, which means that it is more or less seeing a megapixel image. Whether or not this data can be interrupted into visual information remains unknown, but we're not ruling out the possibility that the pointer could sub as a camera. This is, of course, purely speculative on our part, but stranger things have certainly happened - like, for instance, an internal speaker.

Developers tell IGN Wii that they are expecting to get classic Wii controllers in early September, which suggests that Nintendo is serious about providing this third input alternative for Virtual Console endeavors.

We contacted Nintendo of America for comments on our latest findings.

"There are many details that we've divulged about the console, but there is also more to learn," said the subsidiary's PR manager, Matt Atwood, in a telephone conversation. "However, Nintendo does not comment on rumors or speculation."

Nintendo's new generation console is officially set to launch sometime before the Thanksgiving holiday. However, rumors persist that the machine could debut as early as late October. Nintendo is expected to hold a briefing in September to reveal price and release date. IGN Wii will have more on the system as information becomes available.

The DS download stations are cool...

so like i said i went to check one out today, it worked great, the options available was;
  • mario kart demo
  • brain age demo
  • metroid video
  • metroid demo
  • trauma center demo
  • and what I tried out, the touch golf game
Because i was in a rush i downloaded the touch golf which took about 2 minute and closed my DS to play it later. It also looked like there is animal crossing and nintendog rewards so I will try that tommorow as I will be visiting the solihul ones. Anyway back to the touch golf demo, it gave you a 9 hole half course to play on which playing it has actually convinced me to buy the game as the controls are really good and definatly worth a try, so get out there and find a demo station near you.

Just a heads up...

If you check the side bar you may notice a few new additions, first is the review section, and although we only have a few reviews on the sub-site at the moment we are looking to build up a large library that you can refur to, If any body wants to submit there own review, then send it to our Email and if its good enough (which im sure it will be) we will add it there aswell. Secondly we have linked our google calendar, which will be kept up to date with Nintendo events, aniversaries and release date(coming soon). So enjoy and sayonara
