Only a small number of DSi owners have problems playing games

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, News | 0 comments

A very, very small number of DSi owners have experienced issues playing games on the system. However, this is mainly a result of attempting to play dirty cards.

“As is common after the launch of any new hardware system, we have fielded inquiries from consumers about their games. To date, an extremely small number (about 0.025 percent) of Nintendo DSi owners have inquired about playing their licensed DS games, though the most common issue has been related to dirty game cards. Nintendo recommends that players keep their game cards in the original packaging, or in protective cases to keep them free of dust and debris.” – Nintendo statement

Rumor: Assassin’s Creed 2 could head to Wii

Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii | 2 Comments

A snippet from an official Ubisoft announcement regarding Assassin’s Creed 2 may point to a Wii release. Check it out below:

SAN FRANCISCO – April 16, 2009 – Today Ubisoft announced that Ubisoft Montreal is developing Assassin’s Creed II on all current-generation platforms for a scheduled Holiday 2009 release. The initial installment of Assassin’s Creed® was released in November 2007 to popular and critical success, selling 8 million copies worldwide and garnering awards such as Best Action Game 2007 from 1UP and Outstanding Achievement in Animation from the AIAS.

The main reason to think that the game could be Wii-bound is based on the fact that the game is in development for “all current-generation platforms.” The question is, does that exclude Wii? Not everyone considers the system to be next-gen. Looks like we’ll have to wait for a statement from Ubisoft.

Thanks to Jake for the news tip.
