Tetris Comes To Life, for REAL Yo!

Remember circa 1989 when everybody HAD to own a Gameboy? Not necessarily for the hardware or the game library as it was pretty small at the time (little did we know). No, the reason everyone had to have a gameboy was to play Tetris. That crazy russian game where you fit cube pieces into rows [...]


Blue Nintendo DS from Pepsi. Japan!

I wish I could read Japanese so I could drink Japanese Pepsi. Then I could earn points and win a Limited Edition Blue Nintendo DS from Pepsi-Japan. I could also understand everything cool from watch.impress. Instead I guess what they are saying based on pictures, which is a process I’m familiar with since I only [...]


Nintendo vPocket

Nintendo is pumping some buzz into the air with a few new trademark and licenses. The first, a trademark for the term vPocket by a company called Nintendo. We speculate this will have something to do with an add-on “pocket” to the DS that will let you store games, chargers, spare keys and ATM reciepts. [...]


Rent DS Games

Seriously, I’ve been a big fan of the Gamefly idea since they [...]


PSP Train Simulator

But that’s ok, we’ll be burning our train fascination on the PSP port of Train Simulator. Obscure Japanese titles are juicy sweet.

This [...]


Gameboy Advance SP Keychains

The keychain is that of one (1) mini GBA SP unit (that even flips shut AND open) and one (1) GBA cartridge that conveniently fits inside the one (1) mini GBA SP unit. This [...]


4 Color Rebillion">4 Color Rebillion

We have given our due diligence and we conclude that 4 Color Rebellion is a very cool site. If we were Yahoo and cared, we’d have given it the cool site of day award a long time ago. How cool are they? So cool. They’re hyper cool. Retro cool even. Check out their IGNore campaign [...]


Sony PSP Launch

Sony PSP anyone? The Big K brings us confirmed (CONFIRMED!) details of the US Sony PSP launch. You can empty that savings account you’ve been building up at your local gamestore on March 24th. The cost? “$250 in the U.S. and $300 in Canada”. Sony should have kept it under the $200 mark. A quarter [...]
