Portagame.com - Back In Black!

Ok, so someone forgot to put an auto-renew on that damn domain name. Registrar this Internic! We were off and on for a few hours today depending on your local ISP’s DNS. We are back up and will be here until this time next year when I forget to renew the domain name again. Sooo, [...]


Nintendo DS: Back In Black

We’re sorry to report that Nintendo will not deliver a black christmas this year, but they have given us hope by providing pictures of a future Black Nintendo DS. There has yet to be a Nintendo system that hasn’t come out in different colored variations since the GameBoy Pocket, so those that are anti-silver don’t [...]


Tapwave Zodiac Games For Rent

In a business model that is so simple it just makes sense, CrazySoft is renting out downloads of their addictive games for Zodiac and other PalmOS units. For approximately three dollars, you can download the full version of a game for rental. Instead of tacking a time limit on how long you can play the [...]


Hey Turkeys! Happy Thanksgiving!

Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving on behalf of the Portagame staff. Eat your turkey, watch football, take a nap, and play your DS, GBA, N-Gage, Zodiac, GP32, or whatever system you are grateful to own.
If you’re the creative type, you can help your mothers with cooking a tanline turkey!


GBA Movie Player Reviewed in Wired

Wow remember when we all used to think our Blogs were cool because we covered the “underground” stuff. The kind of hardware and software that let you rage against the system. Well that kinda all flew out the window when big names like Wired start reviewing the GBA movie Player. Well the more attention this [...]

Hey everyone just wanted to let you know that after taking a nice little Holiday in a un-disclosed foreign nationality I am back to work here in the wearhouse. I will bring you all some new stories really soon. Also off the portable console variety here I just wondered has anyone been playing Half-Life 2? [...]


Your GBA Movie Player is safe on the DS.

For the few whom have this awesome accessory, simply dubbed as the “GBA Movie Player”, you may be concerned about its function on the DS. Fear not - for Lik-Sang has tested and tried, only to exceed their expectations. According to Lik-Sang, not only does the movie player look sharper and brighter on [...]


Nintendo DS lifts its skirt, has nice batteries.

The sick and twisted alphageeks at Lik-Sang decide to make a sacrificial offering to the game Gods by cracking the case of a brand new Nintendo DS. Perhaps they didn’t hear the Nintendo DS is an endangered species. Yes I am a proud Nintendo DS owner and wouldn’t do such a thing to my system [...]


Too Much DS

Too many Nintendo DS posts. I need more Sony PSP, Tapwave Zodiac, Nokia N-Gage, Gizmondo, GP32, and Classic posts.
Any suggestions? Any one want to be an editor or contributor to any of those categories?
Oh, I’m not complaining, I love what my DS has done for me. Just feel that we’ve given the system too much [...]


DS Street Date Broken!

In my efforts to secure a DS at midnight, I happened upon a local retailer here in lil’ Olathe, KS that sold me a DS…today! It’s always the small retailers that break street dates, never the Best Buys or EBGames of the world. Perhaps they didn’t care simply because it was an hour before closing, [...]
