Wouldn’t you know it, Nintendo’s finally announced their plans to bring the DS to the wonderful world of the Internet. We’re not entirely sure how “broken” the WiFi is on the Nintendo DS as is, but perhaps partly due to buckling under the pressure of the PSP’s online gameplay features and partly due to, you know, listening to customers, Ninny got IGN to build a gaming network for their first wireless online-enabled title, Animal Crossing DS (due November).

Saturo Iwata's latest revelations are so juicy you could positively squeeze them into a glass and down them with your morning cornflakes.
Speaking to Japanese website Game Watch, the Nintendo President said that its DS handheld would be compatible with the Nintendo 'Revoloution' via its Wi-Fi technology. He also revealed that Nintendo would not be charging users for the Wi-Fi service, and that no extra hardware or software would be required.
The only minor stipulation for gamers is that third-parties will be entitled to charge for their products if they so wish, which could include such stuff as downloadable game content or competitive online shenanigans.
Iwata-san also said that his company has planned 1,000 free Wi-Fi hotspots across Japan, catering for those who currently don't have Internet connection at home. However, it was pointed out that home users would have to make simple adjustments to use the service, with a potential router device to keep any fuss at an absolute minimum.
So, there you go, all sounding very positive for Nintendo users desperate to join the online gang. No official launch date for the service in Japan has yet to be confirmed (rumours suggest towards the end of the year), although some form of E3 announcement is expected.
As the cliché goes, watch this space...

Giant animals stomping around on a handheld screen? Seems almost ironic doesn't it? But then again size never stopped Donkey Kong looking like a right terrifying bugger when he launched on those dual LCD screens all those years ago. And now it seems that the Nintendo DS is looking for big piles...sorry, small piles of animal poop.
In development for early next year, Majesco and developer Full Fat are currently busying themselves on a DS 'port' of Lionhead's legendary sim Black & White, to be subtitled 'Creatures'.
According to reports, the game will follow the premise of Peter Molyneux's original PC creation, with players assuming the role of a god, whose primary role is to command a big, giant beast.
However, you can also expect a number of major changes integrated into the mix. First up is the touch-screen stylus control, that reportedly allows you to not only train your pet but physically slap him whenever he's been a naughty boy. The microphone will also apparently play a role, providing further opportunities to scream abuse at your poor, maligned creature.
As for gaming features, Majesco is promising eight entirely new islands, plus 10 different animal breeds, some of which will be entirely new to the series. There will also be several extra game modes including Creature Quest, Creature Pen and the multiplayer Creature Battle, designed to make full use of the DS' wireless capabilities.
So if not-so-giant animals are your thing, Black & White Creatures could well be worth pencilling in your diaries. Expect more details and screens soon.

According to the forum postings of a supposedly anonymous ex-Nintendo employee who's known to be working on Revolution games at a third-party developer, Nintendo's new Revolution console will feature pressure sensitive 'squeezy' joypads and offer gamers a free online gaming service.
While the rants of self-proclaimed, anonymous industry insiders are to generally be taken with a pinch of salt, his claims do seem to correspond with recent mutterings regarding the console.
"It will be like controlling a game with one of those stress balls," he claimed. "You squeeze it to go faster."
While analogue triggers, such as those featured on Dreamcast and Xbox pads, already boast a certain degree of 'squeezability', what this forum fellow is saying is that the entire body of the controller will be 'squishy' to some degree.
According to the source, the controller will also be wireless, which seems likely to be the future for each of the next-gen console's controllers, while voice control will also play a key part in Revolution's interface.
The source also went on to describe the free online service Nintendo will provide. "The only way I can describe it is as an internet service," he said. "Imagine turning it on and checking your mail on the system. You see previews and demos of DS and Revolution games that you can download.
"A magazine similar to Nintendo Power will be exclusive to the system and you will be able to access it on the Revolution's homepage."
Finally, Activision, Electronic Arts, Namco, Sega, Capcom and Zoonami are all reported to currently be working on titles for the machine.
And that's it for now. Unlike Microsoft, Nintendo is keeping its cards very close to its chest, not wanting anything to leak prior to its pre-E3 press event, which takes place on 17 May.

The Nintendo Revolution's controllers will feature pressure sensitive pads and offer gamers a free online service, according to the latest rumours spilling off the internet.
These speculative nuggets come courtesy of an anonymous ex-Nintendo employee now working on Revolution games for a third-party developer. If that doesn't make you want to grab for a pinch of salt straight away, the rumours surfaced not on an official news source but on the forums of E-mpire.com (also home to the insightful 'Are high heels attractive?' thread).
Nonetheless, the self-proclaimed expert assertively rubbishes rumours that the Revolution will use 3D projection technology before dropping the pressure sensitive bomb. "It will be like controlling a game with one of those stress balls," he says. "You squeeze it to go faster."
Right - you're thinking 'but surely the analogue controls on current-gen controllers do that?'
And you'd be right. But we assume the source means that the whole controller - or at least the body of the controller - will be pressure sensitive. So the harder you grip it, the faster your car goes or the harder you punch.
The source also spoke of the controller being wireless, which seems to be a given for all three next-gen consoles. Voice control will also apparently be a big part of Revolution, with wireless headsets apparently offering game interaction "more advanced than anything seen so far."
Next? How about an online service that will allow Revolution owners to play games and access information for free? "The only way I can describe it is as an internet service," said the source. "Imagine turning it on and checking your mail on the system. You see previews and demos of DS and Revolution games that you can download. A magazine similar to Nintendo Power will be exclusive to the system, and you will be able to access it on the Revolution's homepage."
A Nintendo Online service is expected to be unveiled at E3 next week, so this rumour could hold much more truth than the others.
The source then went on to say that Nintendo has seven Revolution games in development and that Activision, EA, Namco, Sega, Capcom and Zoonami are also working on titles.
But when talk turns to the Revolution's fabled revolution, the source suddenly clams up. "I'm not going to tell you the revolutionary aspect of the system. Nintendo has some cool pre E3 plans for that."
Unsurprisingly, Nintendo didn't have much to say. "Nintendo does not comment on rumour and speculation," we were told by a spokesperson. However, it was clearly suggested that no pre-E3 announcements would be made as they would only lessen the impact of Nintendo's conference next Tuesday.
We'll be in the conferences and on the showfloor at E3 bringing you all the latest on Revolution.

So the hot rumor for the Revolution was that it would include 3D display capabilities. Well, an anonymous former Nintendo employee says that's far from the truth and told the Internet the real deal. The controllers will be wireless and pressure sensitive in a whole new way. "It will be sort of like controlling a game with one of those stress balls," said the source. "You squeeze it and you go faster." Revolution "will also include voice control more advanced than anything seen so far" via wireless headsets. Nintendo will also introduce a free online service supposedly better than Xbox Live. "The only way I can describe it is as an internet service," said the poster. "Imagine turning it on and checking your mail on the system. You see previews and demos of DS and Revolution games that you can download. A magazine similar to Nintendo Power will be exclusive to the system, and you will be able to access it on the Revolution's homepage." As for the "revolutionary" aspect of the console? Well, that has to wait until E3.

AheadGames have released this news of the new Snes Joypad and adapter they have released that works with a special version of the Snes emulator for the GBA:
<BLOCKQUOTE>We've received our parts in and our SNES Advance Controllers are now shipping!
We decided to go with a separate adapter and Adapter/Controller so those of you who already have SNES controllers can just use our adapter.
Snes Advance Controller & Adapter: <a href="http://tinyurl.com/9chnj" target="_blank" >Here</a>
Snes Advance Adapter: <a href="http://tinyurl.com/8ftq2" target="_blank" >Here</a>
Right now the only software that this controller works with is the latest version of SNES Advance, however, we are working on a patch program that will let you use the controller on all (or most) GBA software. More to come on that.. </BLOCKQUOTE>

Only Nintendo could make a dictionary sound like a porn flick. If this piece is to be believed, The Big N plans to release a dictionary app for the DS in Europe. It will allow you to scroll through the tome with the touch screen. So what are they calling it? Touch Dic, of course.
Please tell us this is a joke.

Gaming and virtual reality accessories manufacturer eDimensional has dismissed online rumours that it is in licensing talks with Nintendo with a view to using its patented "stereoscopic 3D technology" in future console systems.
eDimensional currently uses the technology in its Gaming Glasses and VirtualFX TV converter, designed to bring games to life in glorious 3D. You can read more about them - and even buy some, if you're so inclined - on the official eDimensional website.
However, the technology won't be making an appearance in Nintendo's Revolution console, despite reports to that effect in a number of online publications this week.
"Due to the overwhelming number of phone calls and emails inquiring about this we felt the need to acknowledge that eDimensional is in no formal discussion or negotiation with Nintendo regarding our stereoscopic 3D technology," eDimensional CEO Michael Epstein explained.
Rumours that Nintendo is going 3D with its next console, eDimensional and its Gaming Glasses aside, seem likely to persist regardless - and for some time, if it's true that Nintendo won't be showing anything of the Revolution at this year's E3 apart from some rolling in-game footage.
