While Bonk: Brink of Extinction won’t ever see the light of day, YouTube user “Bonk Brink” has uploaded gameplay online. The footage, obtained through an “anonymous source,” can be found above.

Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
The Pokemon Company announced Pokemon Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire earlier this week through a teaser trailer. Sadly, it didn’t show much – not even a single in-game shot.
On the bright side, it won’t be long at all before we see actual gameplay. Japanese children variety show Pokémon Get?TV is confirmed to be showing first footage from Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire this weekend.
The show will start on Sunday at 7:30 AM in Japan. That’s 6:30 PM ET / 3:30 PM PT on Saturday in the states. Of course, we’ll have the footage up on the site once it goes live.

Nintendo confirms it spent $150 million on new tech for a non-Japanese, non-games company
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 16 Comments
Yesterday, we heard that Nintendo spent over $100 million on a mystery tech acquisition sometime during Q4. Analyst David Gibson now shares a tiny bit of extra information.
According to Gibson, the total amount spent by Nintendo is actually over $150 million. He additionally noted on Twitter that it’s not related to Tomita Tech. And the most important nugget: the acquisition was apparently for a non-Japanese, non-games company.
