Nintendo Will Be at PAX
Got the word form 4CR and GameGirlAdvance that Nintendo will be an exhibitor at the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) this year. PAX is an ultra-d0rker-game-a-thon being held in the Seattle area this August.

Quick Update to Site
Just a short, quick note that I moved the former OQO and Flipstart sections to a new category titled Ultra PCs.

Hello, Nokia 770
Portagamers meet Nokia 770, Nokia 770 meet Portagamers.

We always have, and always will, [...]

All Your PortaGaming Needs in One Place
Screw GameSpot. When you want coverage of all the handhelds and games you come right to the source right? So what if Jason didn’t pay for me and my DV camera to go to E3 this year. There’s always next year right boss? Anyway although my video camera and I couldn’t make it check out [...]
