Remember those new DS colors that we showed you the other day? Well it looks as though the rumors were true, and the colors are real. Well, they're real for Europe at least, which would explain why they started showing up on a Spanish site first. Nintendo has officially begun distributing these advertisements which clearly show some new colors for those in the European region. You can never have too many colors, right? Europe is especially in need of a few new colors, as they've not been as fortunate as the US or Japan in getting some of the extra ones we've seen. Of course now I'm wondering when we'll see these new colors hit the US shores. Read The Full Story

That's it, I have lost all hope in mankind. This is proof that the world has gone to complete and utter shit. Not the statistics on murders or iPod thefts, no, the proof lies in an utterly horrifyingly decorated DS. When I came across this, atrocity, I do believe there was a moment where I let out an audible shriek of horror. Did they have to put fake pearls on it?! I mean really, the pink heart, numerous amounts of rhinestones and a few scattered flowers weren't enough? Read The Full Story

I will admit that I have, upon occasion played a Pokemon game or two. Never the card game, mind you, as during that craze I still held true to my Magic: The Gathering roots.  I will admit that the video games are fun, but I know when there are games that I should stay away from. Namely the ones where I end up feeling compelled to spend countless hours “catching them all,” because I'll do just that. There are a couple of new Pokemon games hitting stores this week that take a different approach to the franchise. Read The Full Story

Anyone that knows me knows that I'm hard on my gadgets. It's not because I'm out in harsh conditions every day, but rather it has to do with the fact that I am rather clumsy at times. Luckily my DS lite, which I carry everywhere has yet to fail me. However, if your DS lite's screen isn't exactly performing as it used to, you can actually replace it yourself if you have the guts.
