This is what you get when an i-dog sees Nintendogs for the first time. Liken unto Pinocchio, he wishes he were a real dog, or at least a digital simulated one. [Thanks for the pic, Juan]

It was only a matter of time before Electroplankton fan mixes hit the net in bunches. We’ll they’re here and some of them are pretty good. Even the Nintendo Power folks have released an iPod video version (although their music poops). Check out the list for a full view of over 35 tracks and be sure to send us any that you Infendo readers have created. Full List [Source: Nintendo]

First impressions of the unique Japanese game are coming in. From the article: “Nintendo is pushing the boundaries with wonderful non-game-like games… Both the music, which is lighthearted, and the set design, which is seen from the ground-level perspective of Chibi-Robo, add greatly to the charm of this non-competitive title.” Any readers out there had a go with this one?

My bet is the man will dish out details regarding downloadable games at GCD with an unveiling of the Revolution Release date and official name at this year’s E3. What do you think? [Source: Joystiq]

Another “analyst” predicts that the Revolution will retail for $200. From the article: “Perennial US analyst PJ McNealy predicts that the Nintendo Revolution will hit shelves at a modest $200 price tag. Of course we all know the official announcement that the Revolution will retail at ‘less than $300.'” Where do I sign? [Source: GameShout]

Want to get all this GBA SP goodness? Well some dude is willing to sell or trade all of the above for a Nintendo DS with Animal Crossing (and maybe Mario Kart). From the thread: “Cry for me. Cry for me as I belittle myself to no more than a burnt out crack-whore; offering up all this stuff for sale or trade so I can get a Nintendo DS and Animal Crossing. I’m ashamed, but I need AC.

Three cheers for the black Nintendo DS Lite.

The store took the honor of being First Place Specialty Store over 10,000 Squ...
