Exploded N64 Controller
I really wish I had thought of this. Someone’s taken an N64 controller and blown it up, suspending all the components with pieces of wire. It looks fantastic.

Hudson Announces Nectaris DS
“Hudson Announces Nectaris DS”, that’s the headline I long to hear. Nectaris, released in North America as Military Madness, is fantastically popular in Japan, and it has a cult following overseas. Unlike most hex grid strategy games Nectaris focuses on strategy and tactics rather than unit stats and realism. Realism is, in fact, eschewed in […]

Nintendo’s Fils-Aime Speaks
This is really interesting. Nintendo’s Reggie Fils-Aime talks a bit about the competition during a recent phone interview with Engadget. Nintendo is playing it right, as far as I’m concerned. Everything he says rings true to my ears, and it’s a welcome fresh breeze after listening to Sony’s “Oh, it’s expensive!” lies, and Microsoft’s “Networking […]

A few quick updates!
A few updates for you on this fine summer day (I’m in Australia, remember?): 1. A short story about Nintendo, Atari’s Jaguar, and Tetrisphere. 2. Some ebay auctions of mine. I’m unloading a ton of stuff – PC Engine and Saturn softs, and coming up: a Samsung Saturn, a brand new 64DD, etc. Support NFG […]

A few new updates
I did a comparison of all three of Namco’s Galaga ’88 ports: PC Engine, X68000 and Arcade. If you like, you can click here. I picked up PacPix and Meteos for Nintendo’s DS yesterday, and there’ll be a review of both very soon. Initial impressions: PacPix is really well done, challenging and varied, but so […]

Nintendo’s DS: An NFG Review
After writing up all the things that went wrong with the PSP a few people asked what I thought about the DS. The bottom line: Nintendo’s DS is far better designed and constructed. Never mind the specs and features and games, the DS hardware isn’t as flawed as the PSP. Read on for details. As […]

Interesting SNES Demo Cart
I bought a few EPROM boards from someone recently and some had chips on them. Turns out it’s a 1996 Tokyo Toy Show version of Nazo Puyo 2, with new special screens, but missing about one third of the content in the released game. It’s kind of neat.

Three updates!
1. Zumi was mentioned in this month’s Edge magazine. Never mind that the mag is a mere shadow of its former self, they’re talking about Zumi! 2. Nintendo’s Monopoly was good for us. 3. The forums lost a chunk of the archive, but there’s a new backup regimen in place and I apologize for letting […]

Took a quick pic of a gorgeous Soul Calibur 2 poster (large). Very cool. Also, a long time ago I made up this brief recap of the incredible (At the time) SegaCD Silpheed. I’ve created the ultimate GBA assist: AuthentiScreen!
