Solution already in the works for TP exploit
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 1 Comment
Much uproar was caused a few days ago when Nintendo released a new version of Wii firmware, version 3.3. Although people were upset that Nintendo basically seemed to be masking its true intentions to block the Twilight Princess save exploit with a Mii parade function, more frustration was caused knowing that Nintendo was blatantly attacking the Twilight Princess hack. However, it looks like things are already underway for a workaround. Not even a week after the latest Wii update, the homebrew community has managed to find a way to trick code into ignoring the Twilight Princess exploit. Now, how long will it be before Nintendo puts out another update in response to this?

Nintendo Online Magazine in the works? – UPDATE
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 1 Comment
A new trademark on the Japanese trademarks website has popped up. A long time ago, there was a huge rumor that Nintendo would be putting out a magazine channel – something like Nintendo Power…But on your Wii. However, this could turn out to be something to be discussed at E3 or even at a later date, or perhaps not at all.
Update: Earlier this morning, a new Japanese trademark lead many to believe that Nintendo could be bringing an interactive magazine to the Wii. However, a quick investigation on Nintendo’s official Japanese website shows that although the magazine is online, N.O.M. has actually been around for quite some time.

Skate It – no balance board tricks for you!
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
“You can’t use the board to pull off tricks – that’s only done with the remote and nunchuck – but along with the likes of Family Ski, Skate It is further proof that what could be achieved with the new peripheral is fresh and exciting.” -NGamer magazine
I have to admit, this is pretty lame. Not to say that Skate It will be a bad game, though if tricks could be pulled off through the balance board, the game would seem much more intuitive.

Space Invaders invade WiiWare
Posted on 16 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 0 comments
Space Invader Get Even was originally thought to be a Wii retail title, but the project is actually going to end up on WiiWare. Digitial distribution of the game obviously means that the price of Space Invaders Get Even will be consideribly lower if it were going to retail outlets, but the actual Wii point price has yet to be revealed.
