Last week, we revealed that Super Mario All-Stars is coming the UK in December and now in an extra bonus for Nintendo fans all over the UK, it has emerged that the special Wii and DSi consoles will be released over here before they’re released in Japan.

The red DSi XL bundle features a mushroom, a flower and a star next to the camera and comes with a copy of New Super Mario Bros.

The red Wii will go on sale on 29 October, but in a change from the Japanese version which included a new version of Super Mario Bros., this bundle will come with a copy of the original Donkey Kong pre-loaded onto it. It’s also bundled with Wii Sports, New Super Mario Bros. Wii and a red Wii Remote Plus. The Remote Plus is the new controller with an in-built MotionPlus accessory.

Nintendo hasn’t confirmed how much the consoles will cost but we’d expect the company to leave the exact pricing up to the individual retailers as usual.

Seriously Nintendo why are you making this? Do we really need a new color for the Wii the colors we have right now are fine its not like we take our Wii’s everywhere they just sit in one place all the time. For DSi I can understand people might like red. But instead of making these units they should focus on the Nintendo 3DS so that we won’t see a shortage with that like we saw with the Wii.

CycloDS team are gone?

CycloDS
The CycloDS website and forum have went down and now it says that there domain is expired. Before the CycloDS website used to just be down but there domain was never expired. Last update for the CycloDS was on Jul 14 2010, and they haven’t updated there cart since then. There emails are down as well. We have no ways to contact them and do not know what is happening. Currently we recommend not to buy the CycloDS and get a different flashcart instead. It apparently seems that the Cyclo team has abandoned their flashcart just like what happened to the DS-X.

Nintendo has just announced the launch details and final features of the 3DS at its conference in Japan.

The Nintendo 3DS will launch in Japan on February 26, 2011 at a price of 25,000 yen ($US300). This is the same price the Wii launched at in Japan so expect it to be around the same price as the Wii was on launch in your country (Ouch!). It will launch in the rest of the world in March.

The design of the console has been locked in and is more-or-less exactly the same as the version shown at E3 with the exception of a different coloured d-pad. The system will launch in ‘Aqua Blue’ (the blue-black design shown at E3) and ‘Cosmos Black’ (straight black). It is a pity that the popular red-black 3DS seems nowhere to be found.

The 3DS will have a virtual console feature that will allow Gameboy & Gameboy Color games games to be played on the system. The 3DS will also feature Miis. The system will come the software ‘Mii Studio’ which will allow you to create Miis. It will even let you take a photo of yourself and automatically create a Mii for you.

The system will have a more robust wifi system, allowing you to share data through tag mode when the system is asleep even when the same game is not being played. The example given was that Super Street Fighter 3DS will automatically download ghost data and other records from passing 3DSs. The more games you play that support tag mode, the more data you will download from passing people. No information has been given as to the state of the online support on the system or whether friend codes will make a return or not, but the system will feature a internet browser of its own.

According the a rough translation of the spec sheet, you will be able to transfer DSiware from your DSi console to the 3DS. This is fantastic news for all those people who already own a DSi and would like to keep their DSiware with them on the 3DS. The sheet mentions that you will only be able to move software a limited amount of times and some software is not capable of being moved (DSi browser etc one would suspect).

Software line up

Also announced is that the Nintendo 3DS supports Multi-Tasking.

A Japanese product designer has tweeted that:

“On November 20th, the 11 goods I designed for use with the 3DS will go on sale simultaneously. Those of you buying the 3DS, please buy them while you’re at it! This will be officially announced on the homepage eventually, lol. Best regards.”

The designer appears to work with keysfactory, a company that manufactures accessories for Nintendo DS consoles such as screen guards, cases and chargers (view their catalogue). The tweet itself has since been deleted and replaced with a much more vague tweet that reads:

“OIRA is designed to place 20 11 11 3DS product will be released simultaneously for the product.”

The common thread, however, is the use of the word simultaneously. Clearly, he believes the products he’s designed will be available at the launch of the 3DS. It would be fairly strange to make a mistake of when his own products were going to be released.

Not only that but Gamestop also did this.

“The computers for Gamestop have added the Nintendo 3DS in the system now, along with 18 games and 14 accessories listed as available for taking pre-orders on September 29th. They also have a listed a shipping date of November 22nd. (Since postal services are out on weekends, the Nov 20/2010 Sat is the most logical release date, as the orders would be delivered on Monday the 22nd).”

IGN has learned that the Nintendo 3DS will pack not one, but two 266MHz ARM11 CPUs, along with a 133MHz GPU, 4MBs of dedicated VRAM, 64MBs of RAM, and 1.5GBs of flash storage. The information comes from persons familiar with the hardware who spoke to us under the condition of anonymity.

We will have to wait and see if this is actually confirmed as IGN has been wrong before.

After 2 weeks of hot selling of all kinds PS3 dongle,Sony is taking action again.A new PS3 Update 3.50 released,just a few days after its 3.42 firmware update.

PS3 3.42 firmware is known to be a block of all PS3 Jailbreak things,and it works.Psgroove team is claim to release the PS3 Jailbreak fix to 3.42 firmware on Sep 16th.But till now,there is no more news which should means 3.42 block is not that easy to hack.

So,it’s safe to say,there is no any PS3 dongle can hack 3.42 which means all PS3 dongle is “safe” to buy cause they all can’t hack 3.42.When?Maybe weeks,maybe months.But Sony is clearly want to this way.That’s why they update their firmware more frequently now.

The 3.50 update will allow the PS3 to play Blu-Ray 3D. Since April, the PS3 console is the only one to be compatible with games in three dimensions, from September 21, users can also watch movies through their consoles .
This announcement allows Sony to highlight its slight lead over competitors with this technology. This update will be available in Japan and normally the same day, in other countries including US.
Along with Blu-Ray playback support, the update will also include support for Facebook to see and share your game information with your friends.

Source: http://www.industrygamers.com/news/psp2-is-real-pretty-powerful-and-in-developers-hands/

In an PAX 2010 interview about the upcoming Mortal Kombat reboot, Executive Producer Shaun Himmerick let slip the existence of a PSP2 development unit at Netherrealm Studios.

IndustryGamers asked about the possibility of a version of Mortal Kombat on the current PSP or the upcoming 3DS, and Himmerick replied:

“We’re not launching day one on all consoles like that. We are looking at them; we have a PSP2 in the house and we’re looking at the engine, like what can it support. Always a big thing for us is the performance. We’re running at 60 fps, what can we do and do we have to build all the art assets over. We’re definitely looking at them. PSP2 looks like it’s a pretty powerful machine. We don’t have a 3DS system in house yet, but we’re looking to get one, and we’ll certainly look at what its power is.”

So Netherrealm has a PSP2 system, but not a 3DS? How far along is the system and possible launch titles? Previous rumors have pegged the PSP2 as a 2011 hardware launch, but Sony has remained mum on their next portable system, choosing instead to focus on the current generation PSP. What are they hiding in PlayStationland?

The rest of the interview with Shaun Himmerick about Mortal Kombat’s return to form will be posted soon.
