Thanks mostly in part to the stellar line up of DS games, Nintendo is still dominating the Japanese sales charts. According to Media Centre, Nintendo placed seven of the top 10 selling software titles in the land of video games. From the article: "Nintendo's Animal Crossing: Wild World at #2 sold a record 416,132 copies to bring its total to 1.17 million, while Mario Kart DS at #3 sold 302,742 copies for 667,799 units to date."
Square Enix's new debut Kingdom Hearts II graced the #1 spot with 727,591 copies sold. Other DS games featured in the top 10 included Pokemon Mysterious Dungeon, Brain Training for Adults, and Bandai's Tamagotchi. "Touching" apparently still sells well.

News from Two9a:
Short update, since it's been a long while since I posted. Someone asked me if there was going to be a Christmas release of DSemu-ng; I'm afraid the answer to that will have to be no. (As you might have guessed by now.) Due to various things, I haven't been able to touch the emulator since I got the dispatch of blocks to the translator working. Mostly, I now face the daunting task of putting together the emitters for every opcode, to produce x86 code, and that's a fairly big project in its own right.
Other things, like having other work to do, have also managed to intercede themselves between myself and the emulator codebase, and all that means I don't have a release at the moment. However! In about a month or so, I intend to get back to working on this, and I might even get the x86 emitters done; then we'll start seeing some progress.

The map editor is a Windows program that edits the gamesave of the Nintendo DS game "Animal Crossing:Wild World" (or the Japanese version "Oideyo Dobutsu no Mori").
NOTE: You must buy extra hardware so you can backup your game save from the NDS to your PC. If you do not already have a Homebrew capable NDS, please wait.
Action Replay (for GBA+DS, $35) is a cheaper alternative. Unfortunately it does not currently support the AC:WW game (firmware 1.06). If/When they add support, you can use it with the PC Map editor (you don't need the NDS trainer app).
With the map editor, you can customize your inventory, or add additional money ('Bells'). You can customize the world map, placing rocks or trees wherever you want. Also you can leave items laying around to pickup later. You can customize the rooms of your house in traditional and not-so-traditional ways.

Nintendo fans, worried that Nintendo's Revolution, with its unique controller interface will alienate developers? Forget them, we'll always have Kojima!
The creator of Metal Gear Solid, Hideo Kojima, discussing his future projects with IGN, revealed that even as he works on a next-gen update for the PS3, his eyes dart lovingly over to the Revolution's sexy bod. (If you haven't noticed, the PS3 is a little too fat to be wearing those pants anyway.)
According to the article, "He [Kojima] does admit to wanting to make games for all three next generation platforms, though, giving the nod in particular to Revolution as a platform that, as a designer, it would be "foolish" for him to pass up on. With Revolution, he adds, he'd like to make strives in areas other than graphics and sound, a change for him, as he believes he's known as someone who pursues realistic visuals owing to his love of movies."
A Metal Gear mini-game involving that cut scene with Meryl = Awesome!
But, wait, the Revolution is not Hideo's most desired platform. "Revolution isn't the platform he most wants to support, though. That honor goes to the PC." ...

As if the delay hasn't been hard enough, we've teased you with rumors of Revolution compatability, and now here's a 30 minute video that's been floating around the web showing off actual gameplay footage. The video apparently dates back to a developer roundtable at E3 in May so if you've seen it before, move along. For everyone else still interested (myself included) enjoy!

PC Magazine’s handheld predicitions are in for the year of 2006, and they have made their predictions on the handheld market. “ When it comes to handheld gaming, the story is much different. Sony's overpriced PSP continues to lag, as a steady stream of warmed-over PS2 games port over. Nintendo, using a double-barreled attack that features the fashionable Gameboy Micro and the quirky but innovative DS, will continue to win over the market. Riding a wave of great content, including Mario & Luigi, Mario Kart DS, and Animal Crossing, Nintendo will remain on top as 2006 comes to a close.”

SuccessHK have the latest on a new commercial game release:

A tactical action RPG based on the Jump manga, Vandel vs Busters makes you (the player) into the main character. In an effort to protect the peace on Futago Shima (Twin Island), you take on the dangerous role of a Buster and head off on a journey. You're a part of the "Busters" of the title, with the Vandels being the baddies against whom you're fighting. The main characters, including your twin childhood friends Lena and Zena, have been designed by Kouji Inada. Making use of the DS's twin screen setup, Vandel vs Busters places most of the action on the top screen. Here, you view the game's battles in real time as you attempt to defeat the emerging Vandels and monsters with combo attacks. The bottom screen displays status information and commands, allowing you to select strategies with a quick touch.
Buy it for yourself from SuccessHK

An off topic newspost about the newest console to enter the handheld arena and whilst it will never be a threat to the Nintendo DS or Sony PSP in the commercial arena it may well provide some competition in the homebrew area, although its great as a Media player if your only interested in that side of things.
Tonight i finally got a chance to review the GP2X for those that dont know its the successor to the very successful GP32 (which has a great emu/homebrew scene), the console has dual 200mhz cpus, 64 Megs ram and a whole host of features and being Open Source and Linux Based it appeals to masses of developers. Heres my review (shortish but straight to the point) of the console.
Heres an excerpt:
"Well first a tried a normal avi file and it wasnt supported, but in future i should read whats supported :P, next i tried a xvid of the latest Harry Potter film and the fact that i didnt have to encode was excellent, and the playback for me was perfect, infact on that point alone i was sold, the picture and sound quality were spot on, the list of features like fast forward etc were there as you would expect 
Games and Emulators
This is the big area and if you look at any of the decent GP2X Sites youll see that theres been a mass of great game ports and emulators released for the GP2X, the buttons felt right and the joystick too, i can honestly say that the GP2X was spot on although at 3am i couldnt turn the sound down in a Tetris game i was playing but that was more than likely the game not having the controls coded in."

For those of us in the English or Non Japanese speaking worlds we are missing out on some excellent Nintendo DS Games that will never appear in the USA/UK/Europe and although some may be slightly hard to navigate there are some fantastic games, when you look at the Worlds biggest importers Lik Sang they have a total of 188 Japanese games and amongst them some absolute classics, if any of you have brought such games then why not tell your fellow site visitors and let everyone know if they are missing out on a classic Nintendo DS game.

Nintendo announced Monday that the company will release an English training program for the Nintendo DS handheld. Punch Jump writes: "The software, due out on Jan. 26, is an extension of the popular ' Brain Training for Adults, based on a popular book' series that has seen success in Japan. The English Training program will allow owners to listen to a word and write it down on the handheld's touch screen to score listening ability."
Nintendo is also expected to release a travel dictionary program for various languages on the DS. The handheld has a plethora of great games, and the simulation side of things looks to be taking off as well. No word on if either of the two titles will be made available in the US.
