NGamer: No Wii Friend Codes. Bwa- Whaa?

I really don’t care what the eventual Wii Friend Code outcome is, but seriously this friend code debate (or is that fiend code to some?) is getting me downright dizzy. At first each console had one code, then each game had their own code a la the DS, and then today GoNintendo digs up yet another magazine scan that shows NGamer dropping a new bomb on the pile. This whole “controversy...

Nintendo also announces 2007 Q2 DS release schedule

Poll – Only one DS game in 2007

Last week, we asked you to limit yourself and pick just one game to buy for Wii in 2007. We had great voter turnout and the results were pretty well split between Super Mario Galaxy and Super Smash Bros: Brawl. This week we want to know: If you could only buy one upcoming DS game in ’07, it would be… Phoenix Wright: Justice for All Pokemon: Diamond/Pearl Legend Of Zelda: Phantom Hourgl...

Nintendo takes Japan in 2006. Next stop, world?

If I were to ask you what language people spoke in Japan, you might say something like “Japanese” — but you’d be wrong. They speak Nintendo. And the capital of Nippon? Nope, not Tokyo. It’s the Kyoto-based Nintendo HQ. Now, I understand your confusion so let me explain. After 2006 ended, Japan’s prime minister Shinzo Abe was made privy to Nintendo’s sales ...

DS dominates Japan, again

After a brief Wii-flavored hiccup, the DS muscled its way back to dominance in Japan this week. Again. Do I hear a bunch of bloggers getting ready to revisit the “DS cannibalizes Wii sales” stories? Zelda: TP is no longer on this list, so maybe, maybe not. The top 10 from Media Create (via Kotaku): 1. Pokémon Diamond (DS) – 123,573 / 2,119,8482. Pokémon Pearl (DS) – 97,40...

Something lame this way comes — It’s a Friend Code!

What a great day. The Wii Forecast Channel dropped a day early, I’m progressing nicely in Twilight Princess, and Wii games will have their own separate Friend Codes that are different from the console. Yes, it is truly a — wait, what!? MORE Friend Codes?! Tis true. And there is no way my pro-Nintendo self can make lemonade out of this sour, slightly moldy lemon. I can only ask why. Why...

No word on exactly what hardware/software will be offered.

Handy-Dandy Guide to Wii’s Exclusive Titles

SiliconEra has put together a nice article outlining and comparing exclusive titles for Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii. Problem is, their site takes a long time to load. Some of the titles might be slightly out-of-date (not sure if “Wii Motor Sports Airplane” might now be part of “Wii Play”), but overall it’s quite an impressive example of the fun stuff the other gu...

Nintendo Power September surprise? NADA

Infendo tipster James from Tyler, Texas says he has the scoop on tomorrow’s embargoed “exclusive” cover game for Nintendo Power. If he’s correct, then it’s… Pokemon?! “The next issue (NOV ’06) for Nintendo Power (USA) has new info about the newest Pokemon game, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, Epics for DS and GBA (Magical Starsign, Children of Mana.
