Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Nintendo and Target have teamed up to give people a fun and invigorating way to keep their New Year’s resolutions. On weekends from Jan. 16-31, shoppers who visit select Target stores nationwide will encounter the Wii Fit™ Plus Experience in the parking lot or at the entrances of the stores. Each location will feature eight kiosks where visitors can get some “feet-on” time with the Wii Fit Plus software in an atmosphere reminiscent of a yoga studio.
Visitors will be able to try out the various balance games found in Wii Fit Plus, which uses the Wii Balance Board™ accessory to combine fun and fitness. Wii Fit Plus includes the original Wii Fit activities as well as more than 20 new activities, customizable workout routines and even a way to track the number of calories burned. Nintendo and Target ambassadors will be on hand to provide visitors with demos, information and free healthy snacks from Archer Farms, a food brand found only at Target.

Nintendo not stopping production of the DS Lite
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 1 Comment
“Our current plans are to continue manufacturing Nintendo DS Lite globally. The DS Lite has been a highly popular handheld console and has brought fun to an expanded audience of gamers – male and female; young and old – and sales remain strong. That said, it is true that our key focus in the UK for 2010 will be the Nintendo DSi and DSi XL.” – Nintendo statement
If I had to choose between purchasing a DSi or DS Lite, I’d go with the DSi (or XL). However, I can understand consumers who would rather purchase the Lite if they aren’t really interested in DSiWare or some of the other features available on the DSi.
