This week’s highlight has been the SlashGear team knuckling down to cover HTC’s London launch of the Touch Diamond smartphone. Our hands-on video of the Windows Mobile 6.1 device is pulling in some serious views, so if the thought of a 3G iPhone is leaving you cold then you need to be checking out the [...]
It may seem as if you have seen this done before, but this one is different. Actually, here on Slashgear there have been two separate giant controllers as well as a PC that looked like a giant controller. This one isn’t just a controller though, it’s a coffee table as well.
Nintendo is all about having big launches for their big titles. The latest launch party will be thrown in honor of the Wii Fit. Since the Fit is designed as something of a fitness product, they are changing things up a bit and using the party to raise funds for a good, healthy cause.
When I think about the shortcomings of the Nintendo Wii, there are really two that stand out. First, the way they’ve handled their online play is sub-par. The whole friends code just really doesn’t cut it in this day and age. The other problem is the lack of internal storage. Sure, you can pop in [...]
More speed, more gameplay and more pixels has been the theme of the week, with a variety of new hardware launches and upgrades together with some long awaited titles getting released.

Running on a few AA batteries, the handheld has a 2.4-inch LCD screen and internal stereo speakers (together with a headphone socket if [...]
With the phenomenal sales of both the Nintendo DS and Wii, I’ve really wondered why people keep asking about a price drop. I know that we all hope for one, but it just doesn’t seem logical. Okay, so the DS lite has been out for a while, and could probably use a bit of a [...]
Newsflash – The US is currently experiencing a shortage of Nintendo Wii consoles. Okay, so that’s really nothing new, and neither is the fact that Nintendo is still sincerely upset about that fact. Well once again we are hearing news that they are ramping up production to compensate.
While I try to keep up on things, there are some that inevitably escape my notice. The goings and doings of celebrities are pretty high on the list of things I usually miss. Take for example that former 90210 star Jason Priestley is big into racing. I guess he even co-owns a racing team. Who [...]
