In what Nintendo probably considers a major victory over piracy, the High Court in London ruled that the “R4” flash cartridges are a violation of Nintendo’s rights and the DS system, and therefore are now illegal to import, sell, or advertise for them in the UK. Unfortunately, the DS is in the end of its life and so it probably won’t have a massive effect on the sales of software for the system in the future, but anything can help, as there have been millions and millions of software sales lost to the device in the past.

Why was the card outlawed? In an explanation that makes a lot more sense than most people’s arguments of simply “It’s bad to do”, the court ruled that since the card must circumvent Nintendo’s handheld’s security before it is able to be used, then it is a violation of the property that they have made and therefore should not be used.

“Nintendo promotes and fosters game development and creativity, and strongly supports the game developers who legitimately create new and innovative applications. In the UK alone, there have been over 100,000 game copying devices seized since 2009. Nintendo initiates these actions not only on its own behalf, but also on behalf of over 1,400 video game development companies that depend on legitimate sales of games for their survival.”

Well, that’s a good enough explanation for me!

Hudson Entertainment’s unique platformer Lost in Shadow for the Nintendo Wii will be officially unveiled in North America on January 4, 2011. Today for the first time, Hudson Entertainment is proud to reveal a new feature in the game: Materialization.

While the main character is indeed a shadow boy, on occasion in the game he will need to become a creature of light to achieve his ultimate goal. The boy’s shadow is able to acquire multiple swords, which not only help him defeat enemies but allow him to enter certain areas that were restricted by the Tower’s Keeper. The “Watchman’s Sword” allows the boy to manipulate both light and shadow by cutting a door in reality. Doing so opens areas that the boy can travel to as a being of light and can manipulate physical objects for a limited period of time.

“This game is a collection of stories based around the concept of time travel. When you look at something from a different point of view, everything can seem completely different. In this way the hero learns that his bitterest of enemies was just doing what he had to, among other things, and every cast member has a deep background to back up that storytelling. You aren’t an impartial observer, either — the player’s actions have the power to dramatically change history. We’re devoting just as much care to the boundless amount of side stories as we are to the main plot, so I hope you take the time to seek them all out.” – Satoshi Takayashiki
