A few issues back (Volume 199), Nintendo Power featured a small article in it’s “Community” section, in which employees of NOA showed off some of their favorite Nintendo goodies.

No way? Way! Nintendo announced that Metroid Prime: Hunters will feature voice chat before and after wifi matches. Shweet.

Players in North America can simply click the chat icon and say what they h...

A new Super Mario Bros DS scan is floating around and looks about the same as it always has. Frankly, i’m really psyched for this game, but the scan does nothing for me. Full size. [Source: Kotaku]

Ladies and gents, the (dingy) power switch has been found. [Update: Let’s try again, this time in white.] Also, DS Lite guts. [Source: Joystiq, Kotaku]
