Pokémon Black and White have sold an exorbitant amount over their first two days of release in Japan — 2.63 million units, to be exact (via Kotaku). Before that, the games had already hit over 1 million pre-orders. And people said Japanese gaming was dead. We Westerners will be getting Black and White next spring, so I hope you’ve finished HeartGold and SoulSilver by now!
CTA Digital are fairly well-known for their peripherals and accessories, most notably for their iPod accessories and Wii peripherals. But this Wiimote/DSI charger is AWESOME. Way to outdo yourselves, guys. One of your staffers must be from the future.
Oh my. Oh my good golly goodness. Okamiden is going to be the most adorable game of FOREVER.
If you were planning to upgrade from a DSi to a DSi XL and haven’t done so already, you may want to rethink your purchase as downloadable content lovers will not be able to transfer the DSiWare on the original DSi to the new DSi XL. You’ll have to buy your DSiWare. Again. A Nintendo spokesperson told Kotaku that the company was “looking into that specific topic,” but as of [...]
In an announcement that will surprise nobody, the PSP is going strong in Japan right now – in fact, it’s currently the highest selling piece of hardware in the country.

Sure it had a tendency to be silly and extremely over the top, but snappy writing and simple and intuitive gameplay made the original game a joy to play. Sequels followed almost yearly, culminating in this year’s instalment: Ace Attorney [...]

Well, all-around genius and gaming expert extraordinaire Michael Pachter once again indulges us with his genius. He told Industry Gamers that his $50 estimate for Natal was probably too low. As for the DSi XL, he speculates that it won’t sell very well considering it’s only $10 less than a Wii system (and $20 more than a standard DSi system). We all look forward to Pachter indulging us with his [...]
I for one am a huge fan of the Ace Attorney series, which puts a legal spin on a traditional graphic adventure game formula. It’s also incredibly fun to scream “OBJECTION!” into your DS’ microphone whenever you present evidence. The next entry into the series, Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth is set to launch about right now, and so a launch trailer has hit the internets. This new entry puts [...]
