For those 360 gamers out there you might have had the pleasure of playing N+
Well the next step for the much loved ninja is the Nintendo DS and Sony PSP.
When I heard this news, I wet myself with joy. However all was not great.
Living in the UK I have come to terms with the month later releases in comparison to the US, I understand the amount of translation which is needed for other europian countries.
But when I heard this news, I wet myself with sadness. N+ is only coming to the US.
I don't have a clue why, no-one does.
Just looks like us "foreigners" will have to import this potentially epic title.

Attention North American Wii owners. Its time to prepare for WiiWare set to hit our coast on May 12th, Appx. two months after the Japanese launch. The service is to provide brand new software via download purchase. Each randomly priced depending on the content provided. With all the titles currently scheduled for the service, and others still in early secretive development stages. There is quite a bit to look forward to just for WiiWare alone. The possibilities certainly have me hyped. But the wait is almost over with May 12 a little over a week away.According to the last sources I seen there was ten WiiWare titles set for release on the service launch. The following is a list of all the games planned taken from IGN.com. - Defend Your Castle
- Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles
- Gyrostarr
- LostWinds
- Major League Eating: The Game
- Pokemon Farm
- Protöthea
- Star Soldier R
- Toki Tori Adventure
- World of Goo
For more information about that list and the release date revision, you should view the source material http://wii.ign.com/index/release.htmlYou should also check out the WiiWare video currently featured on the new Nintendo Channel.

The My Nintendo Channel (Nintendo Channel) uses your saved game data and evaluates a sorta preference list of upcoming software, etc that it presents to you upon start. You are free to browse various videos presenting new software, and even basic tutorials. There is also a comprehensive list of all games scheduled for release on all Nintendo platforms. So now you'll be up to date on all the new releases, with information provided for each title. The main highlight to this channel however, is the bonus of the DS Download feature. Which Nintendo reps' have mentioned on various occasions. This service has finally been released and currently allows you to play game demo's of eight different DS titles, such as Brain Age2, and Flash Focus to name a few. Its so great to finally have such a nifty bonus feature right in the privacy of your own home. Now there is no need to carry your DS to the store to demo games through the Download Stations. I can't wait to see what other titles are featured through this service. Not to mention the various other features this could allow for. Like event Pokemon d/l or possibly future Animal Crossing connectivity and gifts for wifi play, like with Wild World. Anyway, as it stands this is among the finest casual entertainment channel presented on the Wii console. Simply for the DS demo's alone.Then when you add in all the other content and possible future installments. Thats enough to get most all owners of Nintendo consoles excited.

Mario Kart Wii Update
New courses, online details and Mii support
Brawl has been released at last, well, at least in Japan, and it look like Nintendo are concentrating on the next big thing; Mario Kart Wii
Nintendo have revealed a total of 32 courses, 16 remakes, and 16 completely new ones. Some of the new courses include; Mario Circuit, Momo Country, Kinopio Factory, DK Snowboard Cross, Coconuts Mail, Kinoko Canyon, and Luigi Circuit.
A few of these will put to use a new feature that Nintendo have cooked up for the rusty ageing karts: mid-air tracks! If you get a trick perfect in the air, your kart will perform a dash on landing.
Onto the multiplayer, MKW will have a lot of online options. First off, the game supports Wi-Fi based play from up to 12 players, and you'll be able to select to play worldwide, national or friends list-al. Whatever that means.
Secondly, not everything has been confirmed (as of yet) but you'll be able to install a Mario Kart Channel to your hub to view world rankings and leaderboards plus your own records.
Along with the multiplayer, Nintendo have a means of customizing the game; Mii style. You can make your very own Mii ride a bike or kart.
And the obviouses, online downloadable ghost and 4-player split screen.
This has just hit Japan, so expect everyone to be raving about this in a few weeks time.

Official sales charts show the Nintendo consoles dominating the charts. With games like Brawl and Mario Kart released this year, Microsoft and Sony will already be crying. Thats not just it, the recent game charts show in every one 3 games in the top 5 are ninty. Oh and don't get me started on the Japanese charts, The top 50 has 1 360 game, 7 PSP games and a measly 3 PS3 games. Although wierdly 4 PS2 games. The rest are all Nintendo. It looked bleak at the start, but when you look at these. Nintendo has won the console war.

We all know Brain Age, the mind frazzling DS series by smarty-pants Ryuta Kawashima. Well know he reveals he would much rather be working than accepting 11 million US dollars for his best-selling series.
"Not a single yen has gone in my pocket" remarked Kawashima to the AFP in a recent interview.
Because of agreement terms with his employer, Tohoku University, Kawashima was entitles to half of the Brain Age royalties personally. Rather than go out and get loaded with the latest clothes and cars, he decided to use the funds in a $6.5million project on Tohoku Uni's campus.
"My hobby is work" he says. "Everyone in my family is mad at me but I tell them that if they want money, go
out and earn it."
Kawashima is currently working on afour-year project to study brain development in children. He's also working closely
with Toyota to develop a car designed to keep elderly drivers alert.

That's right, US gamers are getting another new DS color on February 10th. It's the 7th color to come to the US, which makes the list of colors as follows:
- Polar White
- Coral Pink
- Onyx
- Crimson/Black
- Limited Edition Zelda Triforce Gold
- Limited Edition Nintendogs Metallic Rose
- Cobalt/Black
Personally, I don't find this to be the most attractive DS Lite model yet, but that's just my opinion.

I haven't been checking the Dojo site as frequently as I used to. But when I went on yesterday I was greeted with a new homepage and an announcement from Sakurai.
31st January, 2008. Super Smash Bros. Brawl has officially gone on sale in Japan. Is everybody having fun with it? However, Smash won't come out in North America for a bit, and sadly, Europe has an even longer wait until the game is released. For the past eight months or so, the Smash Bros. Dojo has served as a source of basic information for the game, but with the release of Brawl, the Dojo will take on a new role. From here on out, the Dojo will begin to introduce the hidden characters, hidden stages, and additional features in Brawl that have gone unmentioned until now. I'd like to continue to add on to the Dojo so that players of Brawl can come back to this website following its completion and view Smash Dojo as a sort of guide for the game. I plan on continuing to update for another two months, so please continue to enjoy the site. Just remember, I'll be posting information on hidden characters and other in-game secrets, so you should take caution when viewing the site if you want to save those surprises for later. So this probaly means the link below is the final character rota at the start of the game. But as if that isn't enough, Sakurai promises to keep the site going for another 2 months (near the US launch). With Sakurai being a man of his word just one day after a secret character was put onto the site. (Found on the link below) ^^Spoilers^^ --Darkstar--
