Clip: Wii Charge Stations, New PS3 Controller
Nyko shows off some of their cool upcoming accessories in this clip. My favorite two, I think are the Wii charging station and new PS3 controller. Though some of that DS Lite stuff is cool too. Brian CrecenteI thought it was funny how they redesigned the DS to be smaller and then Nyko buys something to make it that much bigger!
NEC Laptop For Secret Spy Missions
NEC and Takara Tomy's Secret Fort Type-No1 laptop wins mad props for creativity and nothing for style. It's basically an ordinary laptop disguised as a secret fort for that spy mission that's taking place in that crazy head of yours. It comes with an emergency button, a "glitter" LED screen for flashing urgent messages, a CD-Rom that'll give you secret fort-style wallpapers and icons to match the stickers you can put on the laptop's body to make it look more serious--or ridiculous, depending...Hmmmm, RISC I think you may be right...but there is boxes surrounding it on the one you listed.
Hmmm,I have seen this somewhere.
Oh yeah on this site long ago, haha.
Feature: Lost Planet VS Suit gets the LEGO treatment
By: Scott Jones Anything built out of LEGO usually fascinates us to the point of involuntary drooling. Seriously, you could build something completely boring out of LEGO, like say a book or Larry King, and we'd still gape in utter wonder. A VS Suit made entirely out of LEGO was unveiled last night at Capcom's Lost Planet launch event in San Francisco.Is it unveiled officially or going to be?
Wait...."will be unveiled last night"?
Msoft: We Dominated December
The thing about numbers is that there are tons of ways to look at them. Take for instance The NPD Group's official numbers for video game console sales in the U.S. You could say that Microsoft is winning, you could say Nintendo is winning, or you could say Sony is winning.So 2 months was an exaggeration, so sue me...
Ummm, yeah you outsold them cause a company can only make so many consoles in 2 months. If there were as manyk Wii's laying around at say Best Buy as there was 360's, Nintendo would have sold more.
How Will the iPod be Affected by the iPhone?
One thing that seems to have gotten lost in the fray with all this iPhone hullabaloo is what is going to happen to the iPod now. Sure, the iPhone is a phone mixed with an iPod, but not everyone wants to spend $600 and get a phone/tablet with their music player.bandit, i believe it actually does have 3 buttons that are ringer buttons volume and home button, but i forget exactly.
