“We are very pleased with Scribblenauts’ sales so far. We are hoping the positive word of mouth continues to translate into sales through the holiday season. People were ready for something that changes the way games are played, and developer 5th Cell delivered a game where players of all ages are challenged to experiment and use their imagination. Scribblenauts’ appeal is resonating with people on many levels. When core gamers, kids and parents all love a game, it is a good sign for success. (Scribblenauts is) easy enough for anyone to pick up and play. (The buss) grew into great consumer word of mouth [that] definitely contributed to the game’s overall success…We’d love for Scribblenauts to be the leading third-party title on DS.” – Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment’s president, Martin Tremblay

“Scribblenauts is a strong brand with a lot of potential. You never know what the future holds.” – Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment’s president, Martin Tremblay

“Drawn to Life sold 40,000 units its first month and went on to sell a million. Seeing the sales of Scribblenauts so early and so much better than Drawn to Life, it’s really encouraging to us that people are genuinely receptive to innovative games and it’s not just something people tout as a theoretical. WB took a chance and supported the title where others wouldn’t or didn’t, which I wish more publishers would do.” – Jeremiah Slaczka, co-founder and creative director at 5th Cell

Even though Scribblenauts possesses a few flaws, it is an excellent game nonetheless. And speaking of Scribblenauts, don’t forget to participate in our first contest challenge!

This comes from an error code report from Nintendo’s website…

Error Code: 206602
Nintendo DSi Shop – Nintendo Points Card or Nintendo DSi Download Ticket Error

There appears to be a problem using the Nintendo Points Card or a Nintendo DSi Shop Download Ticket.

* Make sure you entering the number in the correct field in the Nintendo DSi Shop.

o For Nintendo Points Card redemption, enter the number off the Nintendo Points Card in the “Add Nintendo DSi Points” section off of the main Nintendo DSi Shop page, and select “Redeem Nintendo Points Card.”

o To redeem a Nintendo DSi Download Ticket number, such as for the Nintendo DSi Speak Channel, enter the number off the Nintendo DSi Download Ticket in “Settings and Features” off of the main Nintendo DSi Shop page, then select “Nintendo DSi Download Ticket.”

* After verifying you are entering the number in the correct location, retry the number again and make sure it is being entered correctly.

And this blurb is what you should pay attention to:

o To redeem a Nintendo DSi Download Ticket number, such as for the Nintendo DSi Speak Channel, enter the number off the Nintendo DSi Download Ticket in “Settings and Features” off of the main Nintendo DSi Shop page, then select “Nintendo DSi Download Ticket.”

This could be a pretty neat idea. I’m surprised that Nintendo let this information slip on by, though!

Deep in the heart of Provence, one small independent studio is holding out against the invaders. BiP media, a band of indomitable Gauls, is pleased to announce the release of Viking Invasion, their first title for Nintendo DSiWareTM, on 16 October 2009.

Viking Invasion is a strategy game that pits a band of numb-skulled Vikings against defenders with a dodgy sense of humour. The adventures take the fearsome warriors of the North into a comical, off-beat world where they find themselves developing strange cravings for tulips and cream cakes.


The latest software sales estimates in Japan from Famitsu have been released. Official Media Create numbers will be posted later this week. Also, we’ll be posting Famitsu hardware figures as soon as they are available.

1. [DS] Pokemon Heart Gold/Soul Silver
2. [WII] Wii Fit Plus
3. [DS] Inazuma Eleven 2 Fire/Blizzard
4. [DS] Tomodachi Collection

5. [PS3] Uncharted 2
6. [Wii] Okami
7. [Wii] Wii Sports Resort

New Wii update released

Posted on 15 years ago by (@NE_Brian) in DS, News, Wii | 11 Comments

Second update: Those who downloaded the Wii Internet Browser for 500 points can now receive a free VC NES title (thanks Ronin180!)

Update: Apparently the latest update is for the Ambassador program (earn free VC titles by helping others connect online) in Europe, but again, there are no noticeable changes for North American Wii systems at this point.

A new Wii update is ready for installation – in North America at least. However, the purpose behind the update is unknown at this time. Additionally, the firmware number remains at 4.2 after the download . The DSi Shop is back up as well, although the handheld does not have an upgrade to download unlike the Wii. We’ll update this post with further information as it becomes available.
