News/release from Oxtob
Did you ever sit on the bus and think “Damn, now I could really use a program that treats my drawings as physical scenes and simulates the interaction between objects on them!” ? Well, me neither, but here’s one anyways.
You can design scenes freely by drawing things with the stylus. Things can be solid, like ramps and floors, or dynamic, like balls or boxes. Like in The Incredible Machine, you can reset the scene, change it, and start the simulation again. It’s even more fun if you have a DS Motion, which can be used to control gravity!
As you can see, the main inspiration comes from Crayon Physics 
Some implementation details for those who care: For the physics simulation I used the Box2D library by Erin Catto (DS port here). For graphics, I’m using μLibrary by Brunni, which allows for fast drawing of 2D objects using the DS’s 3D capabilities. The background image is One for SXC by Felipe Skroski. The crayon texture was made in GIMP, and the sounds were recorded on my DS with NitroTracker

News/release from Oxtob
As you know, physics is the new 3D. So why not just ditch the 3D for the good old 2D? 2D was much cooler anyways, and a lot of games that were fun in 2D became quite annoying in 3D.
This is where Box2D comes in. It’s a very easy to use 2D physics library with a growing set of features. Box2D got a lot of attention from the game Crayon Physics that showed the potential of the library. Unfortunately, it is not perfect for the DS, because it uses floating point math, which the DS’s CPUs don’t support. So, I decided to create a DS port with fixed point math. Check it out, it’s really easy and a lot of fun!

This guy just doesn't know when to stop. Johnny Chung Lee graces us with yet another one of his inventive Wiimote projects. This time it involves using the Wiimote and a pair of inexpensive LED safety goggles (with the standard LED's replaced with InfraRed ones) to allow positional head tracking , achieving an effect similar to what is experienced with three dimensional displays and CAVE systems. The video dramatically illustrates the effect. Game developers take note. This simple little variation on infrared tracking could allow for some seriously immersive gameplay in the future

A HUGE supply of the smash-hit console Nintendo Wii has hit British shops - sending prices tumbling.
Hundreds of small-time dealers are thought to be losing fortunes through an online bidding crash after thousands of units suddenly became available.
The most successful gaming console of 2007 was the most wanted item on Christmas shopping lists.
Some "shrewdies" at eBay stores believed they would make a killing by buying in as many Wii units as possible, hoping to double their cash through online bids by desperate parents.
But now, units selling in Argos and Currys for £230 are going on eBay for as little as £147.
Market analysts last night described the reversal in fortunes for consumers "something of a Christmas miracle". One added: "All the signs were that theWii supply would not meet the demand.
"People have stocked up on them hoping a deluge would force up the price. But the opposite seems to be the case."
"On the basis of previous years, that would have been very unlikely. There is always a product customers just can't get enough of."
There were more than 7000 units on eBay yesterday.

News/release from Abcd1234:
Welcome to the home page for my port of NetHack to the Nintendo DS. The goal of this project is to create a port of NetHack for the DS utilizing the unique features of the DS to create an easy-to-use NetHacking experience. I think I've succeeded in that goal. I'm probably wrong.
Features
An unscaled, scrolling map view on the lower screen, which can be interacted with using the touchscreen.
Minimap, message, and status information rendered to the top screen.
Support for 16- and 256-color BMP tilesets, including non-rectangular tiles (tiles must have dimensions which are a multiple of 8, e.g. 8x8, 8x16, etc).
Support for text mode, with optional full color and IBM graphics.
Popup command window for easy access to the full command set.
On-screen keyboard for text input and extended commands.
Keys are almost completely configurable.
Support for both left- and right-handed modes.
Save and restore.
Sleep mode.
News
Version 1.11 Released.
Support commands with repeat counts (tap-and-hold command in the command window and a keyboard will pop up prompting for a count). This also works when binding keys.
Support binding R+[A,B,X,Y,Start,Select] (or L, if in left-handed mode).
Message history is now implemented (use the 'Prev Mesg' command).
Different names now create separate games, allowing multiple games on the same card (this is actually a bug fix).
Note, old key configs will be lost with this version, so you'll have to recreate them.
