PSP’s impressive start in the handheld market has been soured this week as rival console Nintendo DS began to pull ahead in the race for portable supremacy.
The latest industry estimates suggest that the June 23rd launch of DS Lite, while deemed unspectacular by some at the time, has boosted hardware sales for the year so far ahead of Sony’s PSP.
And Nintendo is eclipsing the competition in the software charts – this week’s biggest selling DS game New Super Mario Bros outsold top PSP title Tomb Raider: Legend by a ratio of over five to one. The Nintendo format also claimed the prize for being the overall top-selling full price console platform this week.
As the summer months shift gamers’ focus toward handhelds, the sector as a whole seems to be gaining strength all the time.

We'll never stop speculating on just who will win in the upcoming console wars. It's in our nature to do so. Thankfully, however, there's a site dedicated to tracking current consensus amongst interwebbers as to provide hard, undisputable fact to back up our claims (mostly typed in caps and grossly misspelled) across message boards everywhere. That current consensus is that the Wii will be winning in the war to come between man and machine consoles, gaining a very favorable 55.5 percent selection amongst visitors, with the Xbox 360 coming in at about half that with 26.2 percent, and the PS3 tanking at 18.3 percent.

I'm following up on the first issue of Sega Visions magazine with the first issue of the beloved Nintendo Power. I can still remember when this issue first came out. I would have just been starting the third grade and I could help but be fascinated with the infamous claymation representation of Mario and the Mushroom Kingdom.
The original Super Mario Bros was still filling our little elementary school minds and after flipping through this magazine, we were impressed yet fairly confused about this new Super Mario Bros 2 game. It seemed so different from the original game, but of course, Nintendo Power knew how to spin the remake of Doki Doki Panic into something we would all anticipate like nothing before.
In addition to the huge SMB2 preview, there is also a good walkthrough of Zelda and a ton of other Nintendo nostolgia to be found.

It was announced a while ago that around 600 Nintendo DS download stations would be added in stores around the UK. Go into a store, hit download play, choose the DS Download Station download, and choose a game!
However, no-one actual knew where these were. So, here’s a list of where the download stations are!
Warning: it IS very long.

ClubSkill.com reports that a leaked screenshot from Jump, a Japanese publication, reveals that Final Fantasy III will make use of the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, at least in part, by allowing friends to send 'letters' to each other. Exchanging these emails is said to trigger special events in the game.
Fair enough, but we're still holding out for some true co-op functionality, or even just a simple battle mode. C'mon Square Enix, we play games to take a break from emailing!

With the Nintendo DS Internet browser scheduled to go on sale later this month in Japan, Famitsu.com readers were asked to give their opinions regarding the product. The results of the poll were published in the July 21 issue of Weekly Famitsu.
Of those who answered, 55.3 percent said they were interested in Web browsing on the DS, citing the convenience of being able to check Web-based e-mail, the touch-pen support for text entry, and the ability to browse the Web using Wi-Fi stations in stores or at free wireless hot spots.
In contrast, 27.7 percent stated they were not interested in the browser, and 17 percent answered that they were unsure about it.
Among the reasons people cited for not being excited about the DS browser were that they already use other devices to access the Web, a lack of support for Flash or other multimedia formats, and lack of access to a wireless LAN.

After the 1996 release of Super Mario 64, magazines for years mentioned Super Mario 128 - a game that would feature both Mario & Luigi for release on the N64 or its 64DD add-on. Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto lays the game to rest as one of his lost projects. From the article: 'Super Mario 128 was just one of many experimental games we had. Suddenly, everybody started talking about it. I'm in the all-too easy habit of starting a project only to later on not do much of it. There is a great deal of unfinished work on my desk. I worked on a prototype for the Nintendo 64 game with Mario and Luigi in it for some time." As it turns out elements of Super Mario 128 live on in Super Mario Galaxy on Wii

We're not sure this'll manage to get all the rumor mongers to pack up their bags and go home for a couple of months, but Nintendo responded to the rampant speculation on Wii price and launch date by stating today that they'll announce both of those little details in September. This makes a September launch increasingly unlikely, but doesn't say much more than that. After the announcement a McNealy analyst stated: "Our position remains that the Wii could retail as low as $199 instead of $249, and October is a reasonable timeframe." So, really, we're still stuck with a fairly large launch window within which we're sure to hear a few more "sure thing" dates rumored, but really, would we have it any other way?

At first look, it looks like a GameBoy Micro, but it's not. It's called the One Station. A video game store in SM North EDSA's CyberZone has been selling these knock-offs at P1,999 each. The handheld is actually a portable Famicom/NES and uses a cartridge specially made for the game system. It's powered by 3 AAA batteries and can be plugged into a TV set, for a bigger game screen.

Nintendo's DS handheld has helped to significantly boost the Japanese games market, with software sales climbing by 30 per cent during the first quarter, according to a recent survey.
Market analyst company Enterbrain - drawing data from almost 35,000 retail stores across Japan - reports that Q1 revenue from hardware and software sales reached 277 billion Yen (1.9 billion Euro), compared to 207 billion Yen (1.4 billion Euro) in the same period in 2005.
The growth has been primarily attributed to Nintendo's DS, which has managed not only to outstrip sales of Sony's rival handheld system, the PSP, but also rules the software charts week after week.
Nintendo has sold more than 2.5 million units of its recently launched DS Lite to date, with a further 1.3 million sales of the original DS backing up the unassailable dominance of the platform in its native market.
A glimpse at the Japanese software sales charts on any given week will reveal at least half of the top ten games being DS exclusives, and any successful attempts to dethrone the DS appear short lived - such is the popularity of the handheld and its innovative 'touch' software titles.
Nintendo continues to capitalise on its success, sales of New Super Mario Bros. reaching in excess of 100,000 units in its sixth week on sale in Japan and reclaiming the top spot in the software sales charts.
The industry is set for further substantial growth in the coming months, boosted by the anticipated launch of both Sony's PlayStation 3 and Nintendo's Wii console later in the year.
But whilst the industry waits with baited breath for the next-gen console boom to revive the hardware and software sales, Nintendo has already made significant steps to grow the Japanese market with the undeniable success of its touch screen handheld device.

Despite World of Warcraft developer Blizzard Entertainment having yet to officially confirm projects for next-generation consoles, what we'll describe as 'a very strong suggestion' that the studio has plans for the new machines has finally emerged.
In a job posting for the role of Senior Producer on console games appearing on Blizzard.com, accompanying word on the responsibilities and requirements attached to the position is a note that "Xbox 360, PS3, or Wii production experience" is a plus.
Unsurprisingly, there's no mention of games in the job posting, but it's speculated that the position could be linked to StarCraft: Ghost meaning, possibly, next-gen versions of the game are planned. Earlier in the year, Blizzard announced it was indefinitely postponing production on Ghost - confirmed only for current-gen - and weighing up options.
.For anyone not familiar with StarCraft Ghost, it is/was an offshoot of the StarCraft sci-fi RTS games and stars a female stealth operative called Nova, who's charged with undertaking the usual dangerous set of missions in the StarCraft universe.
Anyway, all we can do is keep bums parked in seats and await official word from the developer on next-gen initiatives.
