    Got this video from GameTrailers Wii, one of my Miro subscriptions.
    It’s still in development, but from the look of this early trailer, it looks to be like one of the more creative games we’ve seen in previous years. Will it be joining the ranks of Little Big Planet and World of Goo? It’s quite too early to tell, but just watch the trailer and post your opinion in the comments.

    For a lot of people, one of the first problems they encounter when switching to Ubuntu is that they don’t know how to install stuff. Granted there’s already a lot of stuff pre-installed from a fresh install of Ubuntu, here are some ways of installing programs starting from the easiest.

    P.S. Yes I know I said I’ll be posting about iPod and Ubuntu. Don’t worry, we’re getting there.

    “7,750?” I asked. “7,795 po”, the saleswoman corrected me, the tone of her voice proud, as if they were selling the deal of the century. Indeed, Datablitz’s price is one of the lowest, compared to around 9,500 pesos in the toy shops of the large malls like SM Toy Kingdom, Toys R Us, and that toy store in Landmark Trinoma. If only people knew that they were actually selling the WiiFit more than 200% of its real price. At Yodobashi in Japan, the Wii Fit sells for 8,360 yen or about 4,180 pesos. And it would have been even lower if it wasn’t for the bad foreign exchange right now, and since Yodobashi is like a huge chain of super stores, you could find an even better deal if you bought from other smaller stores. An imported Japanese DSi would set you back 17,800 pesos here. It’s SRP? 18,800 yen (9,400 pesos). A Wii console costs 22,000 pesos. It sells for 25,000 yen anywhere in Japan. And good luck looking for a Y30,000 Xbox 360 Premium. You’d be lucky to get it here for 20,000 pesos (Y40,000). Apparently, I’m not the only one being miffed by this whole situation; this situation has been going on since the PSX and is not likely to abate any time soon.

    When I was younger, there was a cartoon on TV called G-Force: Guardians of Space (Gatchaman in Japan). They were a group of 5, dressed in costumes representing an avian specie, similar to Voltron and Voltes V, except they flew in a plane and didn’t have a big robot. But they fought and kicked ass.

    Well, the Guardians of Space are back, and they’re kicking Ryu’s ass in this video of Tatsunoko vs. Capcom for the Wii! Watch the video to see the beautiful, head-bashing visuals:

    After the break, we have Ghostbusters coming to the Wii

    The Tokyo Game Show 2008 is currently being held in…well…Tokyo. Actually, it’s in Makuhari, Chiba, but it’s close enough (Tokyo is actually a good 45 mins. away). So I went and see what they had. As it was my first time, I wasn’t expecting the sheer number of people. There was a loooong line outside, which thankfully went by quickly. Inside the halls, it was jampacked with people of all types and ages. So here I am, bringing you pictures from the show.

    Last week’s big news was the official announcement from Nintendo that they would be releasing a new DS on November 1. The Nintendo DSi will be thinner, have bigger screens, 2 built-in cameras, MP3 player, web browser, and an SD card slot. More signifcantly though, is the DS Store that will launch with the DSi. You will now be able to download games directly to your DS via a WiFI connection using Nintendo points and save it via the SD card slot or increased on-board memory.

    Apparently, some people preferred the first part of the Animal March Puppet Show over the part 2. So here it is. I couldn’t understand some of the dialogue, but you’ll get it anyway. And it was quite long, so I didn’t spend too much time on it. So, here it is!

    I’ve been away from Miro for several days; this week’s been pretty busy. So when I went online with Miro, lo and behold a nice truckload of new videos were awaiting my perusal. And among them, were some very creative and interesting game trailers, courtesy of GameTrailers.com. Read the rest of this entry »
