E3 2008: Apogee Returns! Duke Nukem Trilogy for Handhelds!
Our first day back and we couldn’t ask for better news! Apogee has just announced that they are respawning from the dead. Their first creation will be a Duke Nukem Trilogy for handhelds! While we are still geek faithfuls who are still waiting for the Second Coming of DNfrom 3D Realms, mobilized versions of our [...]
E3: N-Gage Then and Now
When I think “N-Gage”, I think “Nice concept, poor execution”. Nokia showed signs of their strengths (a good thing) last year and this year is starting to capitalize on them. Now, instead of trying to beat out the PSP and DS in the “handheld” market, they are going for global domination in the “mobile” gaming [...]
Hey Kids! It’s The E3 Show!
Before all you fanboys get so excited that you pee a little, I hope you take a brief moment to download the E3TV / PermissionTV Player. This application rocks. It will stream eventually play all three of the major press conferences from Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo, FULLSCREEN AND FREE OF CHARGE. If you have to [...]
GDC meets The Cubes
Kotaku has an exclusive sneak peak at what I agree is the best expo tchotchke ever! For those geeks familiar with The Cubes, this is a very rare and valuable addition to your collection. I can’t wait for the Ebay auctions to start appearing.

Nintendo Up for Sale?
Saw this great little post over on our SOTW. Looks like the runmor mill is that Cisco is looking to aquire Nintendo. Now is that Nintendo of America or Nintendo Japan? Would this be the whole company or just hardware or software or what? Seems pretty far out but stranger things have happened. The DS [...]
Blue Sky’s in Gaming
Hey All,
Well it’s almost Vacation time for this Blogger but I wanted to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and leave you with this little gem. It’s called the “Bring Blue Sky’s Back into Gaming“.
It is basically one Web Site cry in the dark out to Game Developers to return [...]
The NES Micro
Hehe. That’s right I said the NES Micro. Check out this link to what appears to be a user created NES micro. Okay so it’s not exactly as small as the GBA Micro or as nice looking, but it is pretty cool and is able to play all your classic NES games. I still think [...]
Nintendo and McDonald’s Team Up
Nintendo of America is expected to announce today that it will offer free wi-fi for its Nintendo DS system at McDonald’s restaurants. Customers will be able to play select DS games with other players around the world.
McDonald’s already offers Wi-Fi to laptop users for a fee in 6,000 restaurants nationwide, but the free Nintendo arrangement [...]
LCD Was *IT* Back In The Day
Thanks to Something Awful, we can be glad and/or upset that portable gaming has evolved the way it has. Imagine all your favorite current PSP games as Tiger Electronics LCD handhelds, and all your current NDS games as Game&Watch titles sans touchscreen. It would indeed be a different world. We always have, and always will, [...]
