New Nintendo DS Coming Out In a Year?

no comments

According to Tokyo’s Nikkei (which is the equavalent of the Wall Street Journal), there is a new DS coming soon.  The new DS will sport a camera (games are going to be built to incorporate the camera), built in Wi-Fi, and have music playback.  It will not be a entirely new gaming device, but another version of the DS we have now.  Good thing I never bought the DS Lite, maybe I’ll pick this up if it shows to be promising.

DVD Playback on a Wii Without the Use of Modchip

1 comment

The Wii now no longer needs a modchip to enable DVD playback. The people at Hackmii.com have been working on a DVD Access library. All you need to do is have a homebrew channel and get the installer.dol file in the package. Run it, and follow the onscreen instructions. Running video files off of an SD card is supported, but currently experimental.

How to Apply for Playstation Home Closed Beta

no comments

For all those PS3 players out there that want in on the Home Closed Beta (in the United States and Canada) - download the PlayStation Home theme. Downloading the theme automatically submits an application to the beta for you - existing beta testers need not worry, for they are automatically qualified for the Closed Beta.

For the other players in Europe, the SCEE will pick the gamers, using criteria such as activity on the PlayStation network and store.

Remember to check your email for an invitation!
