Keyboard combo for the compulsively clean, obsessively sterile

Jan 6th 2007 12:01PM (Joystiq)
Hmm...am I enough of a germiphobe to buy this? Well, I was planning on washing my hands after I'm done typing this. Guess spraying the keyboard at the end of the day with Lysol isn't enough.

Wii like to (Mario) party

Jan 4th 2007 8:23PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
I see that I'll know how to play this game. I love that about Wii games. Having the control be so obvious, yet people still ask what to do. At least I don't have to explain button combinations to my parents...
Anyway, Mario Party 8 will be fun. I guess microphone minigames are still possible if there's DS connectivity.

Fast hedgehog, slow loading

Jan 2nd 2007 6:22PM (Joystiq)
Yeesh, it's almost as if they placed those loading times in there so you have a bigger urge to win...and not mess up and sit through the loads again.
Anyway, why is it that the Sonic games developed for Nintendo seem way better. Hereos, which came on GCN first, was good. Adventures 1 and 2 were great. The Sonic games for GBA were good. Why is it that Shadow, Riders, and the new one horrible? Sonic Rush for DS was good, and Sonic and the Secret Rings looks promising.
Remember the Sonic Wild Fire preview video? Sonic said, "Finally, something interesting" or something like that while holding the Wiimote. It's almost as if there's a conspiracy...

Are Wii saves portable? Manual says yes, system says no [update 2]

Nov 12th 2006 5:03PM (Joystiq)
Are you using Nintendo brand SD cards?
Anyway, I think it's formatting. Like how some cameras have to format memory cards to use it. Have you tried a new SD card, preferebly a Nintendo one? Well, hopefully the update will fix everything.

Wii console manual reveals its secrets

Only JPGs and QuickTime formats?
Well, at least videos will be at full resolution. Now if only my videos weren't all in different formats.
Some virtual console games can only be played by the classic controller?
I guess whatever game needs Z2, but I can't think of any. Or a select button, but that can be set to Z on the GCN I guess.

PS3 to download album art when ripping CDs

Oct 20th 2006 6:02PM (Joystiq)
You mean, just like Windows Media Player?
When will the line between video game console and PC be gone?

Japanese hardware sales, 4 September - 10 September: completely wiidiculous edition

Sep 15th 2006 6:50PM (Joystiq)
I remember that XBox sold 0 last week. So you're telling me that selling 5 more that 0 really means infinite percent?
Yeah, real funny how you include Wii. Unless it has realeased...And the first shipment has been blown up by a mysterious missle just before it got to the stores! That explains the late launch date after the PS3. And the high price is just to cover the loss...

Mario Hoops 3 on 3 video

Aug 19th 2006 4:13PM (Joystiq Nintendo)
NBA...screw that. Give me Mario!
This game keeps looking better and better.
This'll be the new multiplayer game for my friends and I. We've already gone through Mario Kart, Meteos, and Metroid. So we'll be playing this next.

B.O.S.S. shopping cart follows you around

Aug 14th 2006 12:53AM (Engadget)
There's a lot of problems with that.
Let's say a child sits in it. The mom is wearing an orange shirt. When she's not looking, a pedophile wearing the same shirt walks by. Would the cart follow?
Then there's cost. I see current carts having brakes. But poor people can go around that for a souped up shopping cart.

Delux iShow DLA-688 for squint-inducing videos

Jul 30th 2006 2:33AM (Engadget)
You know what'll really be eye squinting? If mobiBlu made the 3rd version of the cube have video playback. The 2nd version already has picture viewing. It's just a matter of time.
As for this player, I think it's got a good price. $50 is pretty good for a mp3/video/radio/voice recorder. Especially for 1GB. But hows the battery life? Oh, and the screen resolution?
