Infendo Radio host loses his phone to toilet while playing DS

As you may or may not know, my Infendo Radio cohost, friend, and podcaster extraordinaire Scott Johnson likes to play his DS while taking a dump on the clock as a creative director. Well just listen in and watch this hilarious account of Scott losing his phone to an electronic eating kermode. One of the funniest stories I’ve heard all year.

No Mii birthdays on Wii

Birthday boy Scott at numberless.net was anticipating a celebration of his birth like none ever experienced before. At the very least, I expected my Mii to be wearing a party hat. In my most grandiose expectations, however, I imagined that when the player entered the Mii Channel, the birthday Mii would be front-and-center, and all the other Mii’s would be throwing confetti, jumping up and do...

Dinosaur Comics does marriage with a Game Boy

Love this comic. It’s been in my Google Reader for ages, and finally there’s a comic with Nintendo in it.

God of Wii fan art

God of War was a great game. GoW2, probably more of the same. Combining it with Wii in fan art? Excellence worthy of a post. I still don’t blame the straps for this, however. [Thanks, sidepocket]

Valentine’s Day cards for the Nintendo fan

Did you forget that tomorrow is Valentine’s Day? Infendo’s blogging buddies at 4cr have you covered. Hop on over there, download, print, or email any from a selection of Wii, Metroid, DS, Phoenix Wright, or Zelda themed cards. I expect to find some of these in the construction paper covered shoebox on my desk at the Infendo Office Park.

Full House vs. Wii Sports

And with all due respect to every one of our friends and ninjas, here is Infendo post #2,500: [Thanks, Scott!]

How do you get a job in video games? Ask Yahoo!

I subscribe to Yahoo’s daily Ask Yahoo! column on my Google personalized homepage. It’s a creepy arrangement from which I derive a modicum of joy. Anyway, today’s column answers that age old question: What kind of background do I need to get a job in video games? Besides the obvious “eat your vegetables and stay in school, fool!” answers, it does provide some fun extr...

Penny Arcade pounces on Fox 6 Milwaukee

I’d love to pretend that little ol’ me here at Infendo influences what Penny Arcade puts up on their web site, but that’d be pathetic. As we all know, I am only slightly pathetic, and I am not quite ready to make the plunge 100% just yet. The PS3 game library is doing just fine in that department all on its own. Anyway, PA has a comic up today ridiculing Fox 6 Milwaukee and any o...

Wii weights

If the tide of cheesy peripherals hasn’t started to rise for the Wii already, it is now: The concept is actually just a prototype for the time being, but since the Wii is rapidly becoming a mass-market fad much like the exercise craze of the ’80s, we wouldn’t be surprised to see it become a reality. Each pocket is designed to hold a pound of sand for up to a total of 4-lbs. Whoa....
