Nintendo released its latest quarterly earnings report this morning and, as with last quarter's report, there's not a whole lot to celebrate. The company posted profits of ¥40.9 billion (about $631.6 million) for the October - December period, representing a 61 percent quarterly drop. That's especially disappointing, considering that this period has traditionally been strong for Nintendo, which had previously forecast an operating profit of ¥1 billion (around $12.9 million). Those forecasts have since changed, however, with the manufacturer now predicting a ¥45 billion ($580 million) operating loss for the full year, ending March 31st. Nintendo blames the poor showing to sagging 3DS sales, which have forced it to slash prices. Also on Thursday, President Satoru Iwata told reporters that his company plans to release its new Wii U console across the US, Europe Australia and Japan in time for the 2012 year-end holiday season. Read the report in full, at the source link below.

Nintendo has signed a partnership that will provide 3DS owners with free Wi-Fi at major UK airports.
The deal with Boingo Wireless covers terminals at Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted as well as Southampton, Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen airports.
The 3DS will automatically connect to Boingo's Wi-Fi hotspots, allowing players to use the handheld's internet browser and eShop, and receive SpotPass downloads.
"Boingo is an excellent partner for Nitendo 3DS owners in the United Kingdom due to an extensive airport Wi-Fi network," said Nintendo UK's assistant general manager and director of marketing Dawn Paine.
Boingo's SVP of strategy and business development Colby Goff: "Nintendo is a tremendous addition to our list of strategic partners in the UK. Our networks will provide 3DS users with seamless connectivity and fast, reliable service to help them make the most of their travel downtime."

The last week has again seen only some slow progress with DS2x86. There were a couple of snow storms, causing blackouts and the need to shovel snow again last week. That meant I only had two evenings where I was able to work on DS2x86 at all. I spent those fixing the mouse behaviour in the new transfer system, so that now both the D-Pad mouse and the Touchscreen mouse seem to work in DS2x86 just like they do in the original DSx86.
Currently I am attempting to improve the screen blitting in the high resolution modes (640x???). I will need to move some of the blitting code back to the MIPS side to be able to avoid sending unnecessary data via the slow card interface. This will cause a slight slowdown to the CPU emulation, but since most of the more CPU-hungry games will use the 256-color modes (where the 640x resolution is not available), this should not cause much of a problem.
There are still problems in the SoundBlaster emulation, but it looks like those will be very difficult to fix using my current transfer method. I think I will still need to rethink the SB digital audio transfer system one more time, to be able to handle all the different methods that the SB card can play digital audio. I have not yet figured out a system that would support all the needs, so I will probably leave this improvement for the later versions.
Thanks for your test reports about the problems in the previous version again! Sorry I probably won't get around to improving the specific problems in the various games before I get the new transfer system working better. This new transfer system was a major architectural change, so it will still take a few releases to get it working properly.

We've gotten our eyes on the limited edition Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater3DS once before, but only a shallow glance offered via Hideo Kojima's cell phone. Frankly, we wanted a better look, and now we've got it. Feast your eyes on that snakeskin embossed bad boy above! Hoo-ah!
Unfortunately for us outside Japan, there won't be a lot of opportunity to actually purchase the unit. That kind of goes for the folks in Japan as well, as the only way to even have a chance to purchase the unit is by winning a raffle offered by Konami in February. The bundle will run ¥22,980 ($298) for those lucky enough to grab one, and it'll come with the game itself, the fancy 3DS, a "snake-styled" 3DS, and two ... folders. Like, the kind you use in high school, except they have MGS3 characters on them.

Kazuki offers " Explore Hyrule "in which you can explore the remake of the map Legend of Zelda Overworld.

Explore Hyrule Unread postby Kazuki "December 29th, 2011, 7:15 am Explore a remake of the original Legend of Zelda's overworld map. No collision map Other than the first screen as it's just Something I Threw Together using my recreation of the map with LoZ A Link to the Past sprites. Updated with a full collision map. I Had to split up the map due to collision with backgrounds from memory. Some of the trees and stuff (Armos, rocks, tombstone, etc.). Do not have collision maps Since I plan on using objects and sprites for Actual em so the player Can interact with 'em. Also now you go slow When walking up and down stairs / ladders. And Something I forgot to mention: B button attacks, L / R buttons switch-through the different swords, and A button warps you back to the first screen.
