To some, the word homebrew itself is enough to scare them away, to others its a great opportunity to make the most out of their gaming console. Although it does hold some risks and may in some cases be able to void warranty or cause a so called “brick”, if you know what you’re doing it can really spice things up. Many people think and argue that piracy and homebrew go hand in hand, but although homebrew in some cases might lead to piracy, this certainly isn’t the primary goal. I’ll start out

WiiWare - Blue Oasis renamed to My Aquarium for western audiences Written by on July 16th, 2008 in Uncategorized. Comments Off   Hudson will be publishing My Aquarium in the west later this year, according to a press release issued today.

No word on a release date, but I’ve found out two things I didn’t p

Sonic Chronicles - Bioware releases new shots Written by on July 14th, 2008 in Uncategorized. Comments Off It’s quite disturbing to see a picture of Sonic surrounded by statistics pointing out his HP and intelligence. Should we really be peering this closely into a videogame icon’s stats? And is his Speed really only 7 (out of 7, I presume)? Still, I’ve saved Sonic the ignominy of having his vital stats pointed and laughed at over the internet, and instead you can have the two pics above,

MotionPlus = confirmation of Microsoft ‘waggle’ Written by on July 14th, 2008 in Uncategorized. Comments Off Rumours have been flying around the internet that Microsoft plans to unveil a new motion controller at its E3 press briefing in about an hour. Surely Nintendo’s new peripheral (see below) all but confirms it? In particular, note the wording - ”unmatched precision”. Which suggests that it has a rival in the motion control stakes. It could be Sony (indeed, I fully expect Sony to have a

The Nintendo Wii is very nice to look at and its unique controller system makes it extremely cool to play, but it does lack some features which other consoles have. One of these being an ability to connect directly with other devices on your network and stream photos, videos or music from them. Here is the situation: you have a device which is network enabled and can interact with a TV (your Wii) and you have a device that is also network enabled and has a movie you want to watch, however you

Two new Naruto games on the way - one Wii, one DS Written by admin on July 2nd, 2008 in Uncategorized. Comments Off   I’m not going to pretend that I know anything at all about Naruto - that’s the one with the guy in the orange jumpsuit, right? - but its games seem to be massively popular, if slightly less so than the anime series itself. Anyway, RPG sequel Naruto: Path of the Ninja 2 will be arriving on the DS this September, with Wii title Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution 2 (pictured ab
