By JohnnyV I always thought the outcry for DVD playback for the Nintendo Wii was a bit overhyped. With just about any electrical device playing DVDs these days, I was easily able to look past Nintendo leaving this feature out. Now, for those who still really really want DVD playback, there’s a homebrew...

By Asterick Thankfully, both the Twilight Princess hack patch and Freeloader have since been worked around, and the alternative is free, and relatively easy! You just load the Homebrew Channel in your system (which can be removed like any other channel), load this lovely little region free loader...

Ubisoft's Imagine(TM) Series Takes the Lead in Video Games for Girls - MarketWatch

GameDaily BIZ: Let's start with your take on the Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo conferences. What excited your about their announcements? FG: As for Nintendo, they can barely keep [the Wii] in stock. There's obviously a lot of overlap between the Wii customer and potentially PS2 owners, an...

By Wootini Alas, while Telltale Games' inaugural Wii Ware title Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People was due out in July, eager fans may have noticed (as I did) that this was in fact the last week of July, and it was not on the list of Wii Ware releases this week. Unfortunately, there appears to be...

By GoNintendo Top Stories GC: There are definitely other titles that are on the slate for adaptation onto the DS. This is really just the beginning. We intend to be on Nintendo DS in a big way going forward. It’s a great platform, and we have every expectation that you’re going to see many, many more titles from us in 2009 a...

By Matthew To begin with there will be 6 different Nintendo backgrounds on offer, but this will surely increase. Currently it is only available in Japan, but Nintendo are going to make this a global service so you can expect to see it being advertised in the next few months I guess.

NoA ready to look into a storage solution... Nintendo has admitted that it's not just 'geeks and otaku' who are running into storage space problems. Reggie Fils-Anime has said it's becoming a problem for the entire Wii user base. Click here to read the full article

By Chris Schilling Here’s hoping it comes to the west, though US Wii owners shouldn’t get too excited if they see a blue light too - that’s merely an update for the Photo Channel which, according to Nintendo, provides behind-the-scenes support for the Japanese-only service. Way to rub it in.

The Nintendo Wii just got a photogenic makeover.

By Candace Savino Filed under: News No, you didn't misread the title of this post; it's not another edition of Born for Wii for today. Yet, the title is still a bit misleading, as we really should have said that the Dark Room Sex Game is "Porn for Wii Remote."

By Darren Murph Okay, okay -- we get it. So maybe there's just not enough room in a genuine Zapper to fit all the necessary innards of a Nintendo Entertainment System into, but it's just a bit weird to see the Big N's antiquated console crammed into some other light gun. Similar to the NES-in-an-NES-controll...

By David Hinkle Yeah dude, that's totally Mike Sylvester there at the meetup last night. Other surprise guests showed up, as well as tons and tons of readers (who, in turn, walked away with tons and tons of free swag). Overall, it was a great success. You wouldn't believe how fast pizza goes at a Joystiq meetup...

By Candace Savino We haven't highlighted many sports games at E3 (unless you count Wii Sports Resort), but NHL: 2K9 is different, as it's the first legitimate hockey game to hit Nintendo's console. We are some very hockey-starved individuals, so we're keeping a cautious eye on this one. You can see a little b...

By Chris Nintendo have finally addressed the requests for voice chat on Wii.  Rater than use a headset for individual players, ‘Wii Speak’ will use a microphone that mounts on top of the sensor bar and connects to the Wii via USB.  This will make it what they a ‘community mic’, allowing everyone in the...

Nintendo just announced their latest Wiimote accessory the MotionPlus. The MotionPlus is a small, white box which fits snugly at the base of your Wiimote. What does it do? It makes it more... Wiimotish. This device promises to increase the motion capture capabilities of the controller. The Wii...

See, Nintendo fans…not only does Nintendo pull in the casual crowd with their games, they get the attention of the hardcore as well! I can only imagine what Iwata thinks of this… Link

By Brian Ashcraft Well! If Brain Age gets a naughty movie, then one would correctly assume that Wii Fit must get one as well. Japanese adult video maker Gekidan Carnival has just released Geki Fit, which features the tagline "Fitness Is Erotic!" Geki Fit features 115 minutes of young ladies in various stret...

By Noun What is Captain Rainbow, you ask? North America and Europe missed out on an international release for GiFTPiA on the Gamecube, but hopefully the success of Chibi Robo and Chibi Robo: Park Patrol has softened Nintendo to launching more skip ltd. titles worldwide.

By DarkWish Ever since The Conduit has been announced, I have been following its latest developments. It’s a FPS title that looks amazing for a Wii game and it just looks like it’s going to be a lot of fun. Well, thanks to IGN, we now have a new video, which you can see above.

By Chris Schilling This morning, I came across - and you’ll see why that might be a poor choice of phrase shortly - a couple of new examples which might just have an appeal outside your casual gaming demographic. Hit the jump to see the pic, which might just be NSFW if you’re a bit prudish.

By Mike Fahey We Love Golf is coming out on July 15th, and if you preorder now at Gamestop, Game Crazy, Circuit City, Toys R Us, the Official Capcom Store, and several other fine gaming retailers you can get your hands on this snazzy red Wiimote body bag! Now you can recreate scenes from the hit television...

Go ahead, re-read the title again and again. I’m not making this up. According to the latest issue of Nintendo Power, Konami’s Castlevania: Judgement for Wii will be a three dimensional fighter in the same vein as Namco’s Soul Calibur. So far from what is known you’ll be able to play as...

By Owen Good Eidos yesterday launched an official Tomb Raider: Underworld Web site and sent out a couple more screenshots, including the one above. More importantly, it confirmed the game is due out in November for the 360, PS2, PS3, DS, Wii and PC. Screenshots and other discussion follow the jump.

By Andrew Macarthy Remember that strange trailer we reported about last week; the one from PheroseSoft, a team of ex-Rockstar and Electronic Arts employees who are currently working on a Balance Board-based title for WiiWare? Well, the firm has now released a less cryptic trailer for what is now known as W...

By Alisha Karabinus Filed under: Peripherals, Wii Warm UpThe hip new thing, apparently, is to utilize the Balance Board in making games -- at least, from all the announcements and rumors of late. And while we definitely think the board could be put to good use (just as our own Mike Sylvester did), we must say we'...

By Brian Crecente Gaming company Nintendo has also denied it is behind the video. A Nintendo spokesman said: "This has and is absolutely 100 per cent nothing to do with Nintendo. Nintendo did not create it and were not aware of it until it was brought it to our attention."

By Alisha Karabinus I was actually the first person in America to buy a Wii when it officially went on sale. You see, I'm in the Air Force and am stationed on Guam, which is a U.S. territory and is about 14 hours ahead of EST. There's a saying that Guam is where America's day begins since it's the territory/state that's...

By Haroon Malik Wiimote Strapgate continues, with Nintendo hopefully putting the whole flimsy diabolical to rest once and for all. The resolution comes with the attachment of a clip that holds down the cord in a desired position. This would cause less sudden tension at the apex of the knot, whilst deliver...

By N Rumas Since we’re on the subject of great art in games, I thought I thought I’d share a few beatiful new images from Phantom Hourglass and Wii’s upcoming No More Heroes. Wouldn’t it be rad if Miyamoto & Co. conjured up an entire game in this style? I know I’d be happy. Next is a newly released screen...

By Michael McWhertor It's good to be back. After spending the majority of yesterday knee deep in Nintendo-related presentations, eyeballs glued to Nintendo DS Lite screens and monitors running unreleased Wii games, I've got plenty of catching up to do.

By fdemarco I love Old Grandma Hardcore. I get no end of amusement watching her foul mouthed antics that could give the Angry Nintendo Nerd a run for his money.

By hey_suburbia This may open the flood gates to take the Wii into the XXX realm, but we’ll see.  And hope it doesn’t… I don’t think the wiimote needs another bad press event.  I can see it now: Sean Hannity: “America has lost all morals and hold nothing sacred, even an innocent video game controller is a sex toy...
