Reader dc12iscool grabbed a couple pictures of a preview in the latest ONM.
The text reads, “World Exclusive! Step back in time as a classic game makes a long overdue return”. According to dc12iscool, the magazine also states that the exclusive will be about a Wii game. Now what do those stars mean?!
Update - Pretty strong evidence that the game will be NiGHTS! Thanks to everyone that sent this tip in.

Does two things. First, it answers a lot of questions (yeah, this is VERY RPG). Second, it ratchets up the excitement levels. This is exactly the kind of thing Wii owners need to be seeing to remind them real, actual games are on the horizon.
Hit the link for the trailer. It's very nice.

So, in just a few days from now Ubisoft will flood the market with games based on the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles flick, titled TMNT. GameCube, Wii, PlayStation 2, Xbox 360, Game Boy Advance...if you own just one videogame system, then chances are you'll have the opportunity to play a virtual version of the flick. Nintendo DS owners, it's the same for you: not only will you be able to play the absolutely rockin' side-scrolling brawler that's to be released for the GBA, you'll also get an original version that makes use of the Nintendo DS capabilities.
In our early playthrough of the version sent over by Ubisoft, you won't need the stylus -- all of the action's taking place on the upper-screen using the D-pad and buttons. The game isn't a port of the console games, however -- it's a completely original design that's admittedly very difficult to describe.
Yes, there will be weapons combat in TMNT for the Nintendo DS. The game features battles where you'll need to kick, punch and block while fighting with multiple enemies on-screen. But these fights are merely intermissions to the game's main focus: using the cityscape as your playground as you jump from situation to situation.
There's a lot of jumping in the Nintendo DS version of TMNT. A lot. So much that you'd think the second T in the title stands for "Toads." In this game it's all about leaping left, forward, or right by using the Y, X, or A button. Timing is everything as you'll need to prepare your next jump ahead of time -- if you hit the button at the proper time your speed will increase, and this jolt in pace will come in handy when you have to beat the timer. In many cases one of your brothers will show up on the scene and you'll need to race to his location so he can throw you to a particular part of the level that normally wouldn't be accessible. Take too long and he'll grow impatient and leave, which means you'll miss the opportunity to reach that hidden area.
You'll also have to time jumps while sliding through the sewers -- miss the proper opportunity to leap over a gap and you'll have to try that move again...with one live removed from the queue.
We'll hold our full impressions of the game for when the game ships next week, but at the very least the Nintendo DS version is a unique design that doesn't play anything like anything you've experienced on the handheld before. It looks pretty decent in motion, too -- though the character models are a little angular, the game runs at the Nintendo DS's silky smooth 60 frames per second mode which gives the production a bit of fast-paced energy.
If words didn't do this game justice, take the time to check out the game in motion by hitting the media link below.

Next month ushers in the release of Pokemon Diamond and Pearl in North America, and it seems like Nintendo is wising up to the appeal of online play for these games. It was already previously known that both of these games would support voice chat with people from your Friends List, but Nintendo confirmed to IGN today that it was releasing a headset peripheral for its popular little dual-screened monster, making chatting with your friends even easier.
Nintendo representatives were wary to confirm a specific release date, but they did state that the company plans to release the attachment to coincide with Pokemon Diamond and Pearl's April 22 release date. While Nintendo was characteristically tight-lipped, online retailer Gamestop lists a ship date of April 23 and a price tag of $14.99.

Elusion has released a new game for the Nintendo DS, heres the news:
Hello all,
This is my first submission to the Nintendo DS homebrew scene. Hopefully the first of many...
It has some striking similarities to a game on PocketPC's <ahem>... I won't name any names 
The usual blah blah blah stuff applies -- I hold no responsibility if it blows up your DS (it shouldn't).
Big thanks to the guys that created PALib.. I would not have been able to crank this out as quickly
as I did without their stellar library and docs.
Also a big thanks to Grymmjack for providing a music track and digging out all of his old Mod
tracking tools!
Basically the point of the game is to clear the board of similar colored balls and get the best
score you can. The more similar colored balls you clump together, the higher the score.
Known Bugs:
The sounds get a little screwy with the music on. Not sure if this is PALib or me.
Controls:
Use the stylus for highlighting the balls.
Use the Left Trigger to reset your game board.
Use the Right Trigger to toggle the music on and off.
Ball Buster was created using devkitpro and PALIB.

No, it's not another training game. Kotoba no Puzzle Mojipittan (Word Puzzle Mojipittan) is a Scrabble-style board game from Bandai Namco in which players use characters from the Japanese hiragana syllabary to spell words. Therefore, it's really, really, really hard to play if you don't know a load of Japanese words, and basically impossible if you can't read hiragana.
Mojipittan has appeared on other platforms before, but as the Shockwave demo says, "The stylus makes it simple!" We suggest giving the demo a shot and seeing if you're up for some wordplay. The bouncy music and adorable tile mascots may convince you to enroll in Japanese classes.

Jake Nickell assures us that he never ignored Norman, his Pug/King Charles Spaniel mix, in favor of playing the copy of Nintendogs that came with his Nintendo DS. If that's true, what could have lead the hound into chewing up the pet simulation's cart?
Maybe the puppy just grew tired of sinking his teeth into Jake's shoes, homework, and remote controls? Or perhaps Norman took the game's "Best Friends" label to heart, biting down on the newcomer in a fit of jealousy. We happen to think that this was his revenge on Jake for dressing him up in silly outfits and posting the photos on the internet. We would be pretty pissed too.

Oh, we're not asking. This time, Miyamoto is. It seems the master himself is looking for more stories of happy gamers to add to his collection. At Yahoo! Answers, he's asked, "How old were you when you first heard the term, 'Nintendo,' and what does the name mean to you now?" With hundreds of answers and counting, it's likely he'll end up with more nostalgia than you could shake a mushroom at.
Since many of us started with Nintendo, back in a time when everyone was a Nintendo fan and no one was a fan of anything else, we've already hashed over a lot of the 'first encounter' memories. But the second prong of the question is intriguing. What does Nintendo mean to us now? There are a lot of possible answers, but most of them boil down to one thing: if you're here at DS Fanboy, then 'Nintendo' probably means fun. Through the ups and downs, for us, Nintendo always means a good time.

On ebay is an amazing auction of every Snes game released in the USA, heres the auction info:
Up for auction is a once in a lifetime opportunity. I used to be an avid collector of video games, but as times changed I decided to sell off my collection. The majority of it I have sold of piece by piece, but I no longer have the time or energy to do that. Many of you remember me from selling my NES collection a few months back and that was very good, but this collection is definitely my pride and joy.
The complete US Super Nintendo collection, every game COMPLETE IN BOX with manual and most inserts!
Every game that was commercially released in the US (list taken from the Digital Press Advanced Collector's Guide). Now I know some people will make a huge splash with the title of their auction, but then not have everything they are claiming. This is not the case, what is NOT in this auction are the following 2 games, both were exclusive blockbuster competition carts:
Donkey Kong Competition Cart (Not included)
Starfox Competion Cart (NOT included)
In total you are getting the entire 720 game collection, which includes some games that are brand new and factory sealed. The condition of the games are beautiful, the majority are near mint/mint condition. If you would like additional photos, I will be happy to supply them of specific game(s). You are also getting an additional 74 games (duplicates) to what you are already picking up, that are also Brand new and Factory Sealed. In total, there are 794 Super Nintendo games in this lot.
The price is $15,000 more info here

Sega's branch in Germany is hosting a contest to celebrate Sonic and the Secret Rings' release, offering up prizes like figurines, signed memorabilia, and a Sonic-Team-branded Wii. The winner of the limited edition Wii will also receive a German copy of the game -- a cruel reminder of the hardware's region lock.
We're not sure how faithful the customized console will be to the mock-up pictured above, but the simple stamping of the blue hedgehog's head on both the system and the Wii remote is a lot more attractive than we expected. Entering the contest is as easy as sending an email to Sega's offices with the German title for Sonic and the Secret Rings. They will be accepting entries until March 23rd, so don't put your Google-searching off for too long!

Alot of rumor has been floating around recently, most of it being some new hit games coming to the VC, or possibly even a new console being added. Well now the guys over a Rumor Reporters come up with this story!
The rumor comes from fellow reader Fei34 who claims that a fellow DigiPen employee told him that Sega Saturn games would indeed be making an appearance on the Wii. Although this could still be wells away from becoming true, the fact that DigiPen, a highly respected video-game school in Redmond Washington, has this sort of knowledge is pretty intriguing. Especially by the fact that both Nintendo of America’s offices and DigiPen’s campus actually interconnects by a simple hallway. Could Fei34’s DigiPen source have even closer access to NOA’s employees in which he/she may have gotten the information?
The only thing that Fei34 left me was a confirmation that a “big game was coming.” Whether that’s a Sega Saturn game (like Panzer Dragoon Saga) or not, only time will tell. So don’t dismiss Nintendo’s systems on the Virtual Console as being cemented just yet.
So what do you guys think of this latest rumor? Personally I would be thrilled if it happened, due to the fact I have never play a Sega Saturn!

My old pal vander fujisaki from ociojoven (OJgames) sent me an email with an interesting find - YesAsia has an entry for a japanese release of a game called Sailor Moon, from Namco Bandai Games. Working title though it may be, this certainly brings exciting possibilities to light for fans of the series - and the page gives a release date of December 31, 2007, which looks suspiciously like a placeholder. Unfortunately this remains a rumor until we can confirm that it really exists, which may take a bit of time. But I'll try!
In other Sailor Moon game news, vander pointed out Sailor Moon Plus, a five-part game series using the Beats of Rage engine, which follows the story loosely through several episodes and iterations of the original tale, while also adding new elements at times. Three parts are currently available, with more promised. It's generally fashioned after the SNES game (certainly using some of its sprites - the screenshot to the left is from SMP), but seems to be a fair bit better in execution. Seeing as it's the Beats of Rage engine, this means you can play the game on a variety of consoles as well as PC.

Click on the video player now to witness one of the most cringe-worthy videogame trailers in recent memory.
It features a bunch of fully-grown, ADULT blokes rolling water balloons around home-made obstacle courses. Why? Watch it and find out.
It's almost as bad as those painfully cheesy NES adverts back in the eighties, when people seemingly had no shame.
Those poor actors. It's so bad, we're embarrassed for them. That's one minute and 19 seconds of our lives we'll never get back.
Trailer Here
