Wii Play has sold 2.3 million units, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess 1.3 million units, Mario Party 8 one million units and Super Mario Galaxy 1.3 million units.
Dr Kawashima's Brain Training; How Old is Your Brain? has now sold over 5 million units in Europe, while its sequel More Brain Training has clocked up 2.8 million units. However, the top-seller is the Nintendogs series, which has sold over 8 million units in the region.
New titles for Europe in 2008 include Wii Fit, Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Mario Kart Wii, and Professor Kageyama's Maths Training: The Hundred Cell Calculation Method for the DS.

Smash Bros. Brawl -- delayed!
Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G -- delayed!
Sakura Taisen and Mysterious Dungeon Shiren -- also delayed!
Okay, so the two latest delays from Japan probably won't cause much of a meltdown on message boards when compared to the earlier announced delays of Smash Bros. and Monster Hunter, but we're sure a few Sega fanatics will need the warm, comforting bosom of a lover tonight.
Sega Japan announced today that two of its high profile first quarter titles have been pushed back. Dramatic Dungeon Sakura Taisen, originally set for DS release on 2/21, will now arrive a month later on 3/19. Even bigger is the delay for Wii's Mysterious Dungeon Fuurai no Shiren 3 which, instead of its original 2/28 release, will now make it out in June. These dates are all Japan only.
As expected, Sega cited a need to up the quality of the two titles as reason for the delays.
While Sakura Taisen probably doesn't have a chance of release in America, Shiren is set for US release under the name Shiren the Wanderer 3. As the US version is currently with a TBA release date, expect the TBA to come post Summer.

This portable gaming beast not only plays games from three classic Nintendo systems, it runs on the power of the sun. Out of the box, the player can handle NES/Famicom, Gameboy and Gameboy Color titles, as long as you can get the ROMs transfered to an SD card. Of course, I won’t tell you how to do that, but that’s what search engines are for, right?
In addition to taking on retro gaming sans batteries, the Mobile Power Station plays popular audio and video files, including MP3, WMA and MP4 (converted to AVI) formats. The compact player features a 3.5 color display, 2GB of built-in memory and an SD slot for up to 2GB more. The jack-of-all-trades can also display or speak E-books, has a voice recorder, and even a built-in LED flashlight. Heck, it’s even got a USB-out connector so you can use the solar panels to charge other devices.
So what are you waiting for? You can grab one yours gadget importer Chinavasion for about $123 USD.

With Super Smash Bros. Brawl delayed to March, we just assumed that the Smash Bros. Dojo would be running dangerously on figurative fumes, posting about how the cursor changes when one hovers over portraits or scraping the barrel bottom for more alternate costume choices. We certainly never thought they'd drop the Mushroomy Kingdom on us, the best looking stage yet. It's a Wii-creation of World 1-1 from the original Super Mario Bros., a constantly side-scrolling level that only makes us long for a remake of the NES classic. We'd totally buy this via WiiWare, Nintendo, if you're listening.
That bit on the right? It's the alternate version of the stage that appears randomly, a 3D take on World 1-2 from the same game. Who knew we'd get so turned on by a torch nestled under some polygonal bricks?

Gorgull has released a new version of Protein DScratch
The goal of the Protein project is to get a creative audio/visual toy you can play with anywhere you go - it is in some ways similar to ElectroPlankton concept.
DScratch is the first module (or "protein") made using my Protein engine - it's a little audio manipulation software running on Nintendo DS, which ables you to play with an .wav audio sample, a recorded audio sample or even audio streaming from DS's embedded mic. Moreover, DScratch sends MIDI through wifi connection, which ables you to control external applications, like a VJing software or audio sequencer, and can be motion-controlled.
///////////////////////////////////////////////
// WHAT'S NEW?
///////////////////////////////////////////////
v080122
--> # !!! a brand new WavePlayer (direct streaming from filesystem) = no more limit in file size !!! <--
# enhanced turntable behavior
# enhanced cross-fader cut
# volume control added
# xml config file added (waiting for a real control panel - I definitely hate coding GUI :-p)
# samples preview and info in file browser (press X)
# enhanced "BitCrusher" effect (renamed from DownSampling FX)
# scalable sample display
# fixed green led behavior (blinking while wifi activated now)
# a lot of bug fixes

News/release from MonkeyZ:
DS2Win Fusion is a program designed to allow you to do ALL the things you could do with your PC, harnessing the
wireless capabilities and touch screen for maximum usability. Play movies, games and browse the net, check emails,
the sky is the limit! All you need is a windows PC and a wireless router or card.
This is an customized build of the Win2DS client and server, both the client and server have been enhanced
to provide new features, higher speed and service quality.
Note: This release will probably need to be DLDI patched before using (unless you have a R4DS like me and its done automatically)
Changelog:
----------
0.81a "the oracle"
server - completely rewrote server in Delphi and it is now perfectly stable, i think! =)
server - implemented CRC checking for better detection of duplicate screens
server - cursor no longer flickers when capture transparent pixels is enabled
server - all options can now be configured without restarting the server
server - JPEG quality is now configurable for zoomed and fullscreen views
server - JPEGs are no longer saved to disk before sending to DS which should speed up things a lot
server - extra quality setting added for mid-range CPUs
server - movie player beta (no sound, only works with fairly standard AVI files)
server - added option to run on windows startup
client - FAT support added (DLDI patching now required) only IP address is saved for now
client - disabled screen updates while lid is closed to save battery power

News/release from asiekierka:
WireWorld DS is a DS port of a cellular automation under the same name.
So far it has:
- basic WireWorld implemented
- editor builtin
Well, it's my first DS homebrew.
WireWorld has 4 states:
space - represented by black
wire - represented by gold
spark - represented by red
tail - represented by blue
Spark changes to tail.
Tail changes to wire.
Wire changes to spark if it's surrounded by 1 or 2 sparks.
Even with so simple rules, it's able to implement many stuff in it.
Thanks to whole #dsdev for helping me fix all the bugs.
Source code will be offered if anybody will want.

Sonny Jim posted this news:
I've just finished porting SAMBA to DSLinux and it should be showing up on the official builds on Kineox shortly. This will allow you to connect to your DS using standard Windows Networking.
To enable, first get wireless working and follow the instructions here. To connect to it via Windows you can (reportedly) go to Start->Run and type in:
Code:
\\ds.ip.address\share
And enter in root/uClinux as the username/password. The password is held seperately from the system password and can be changed using smbpasswd.
Please note that this will probably require a supported RAM expansion in Slot-2.
