Brooksilver has informed us of an interesting project in the works:[br][br]In August 2001, two Syracuse University alumni began work on an independent game project. In 2002, Lightspire Studios, Inc. was created to push the limits of interactive storytelling within the game industry. By March 2003, the obvious platform for this project was the Gameboy Advance System offering small developers a realistic opportunity to compete on a commercial level. Many volunteers from the art, music, and GBA development community have graciously contributed since that time. Thus, "Chronicles of Eden, Vol. I: Vangarde's Tale" was born out of thousands of hours of work dedicated to a single vision: create a truly epic and original title with rich story and character development that will last the tests of time (are these kinds of games sadly missing or what?). The next step is to secure a publisher to complete its development. [br][br]Check out a preview of the game at http://www.lightspirestudios.com.

Some great news from Lik Sang [br][br] The GBA Movie Player is one of the most popular GBA accessories and enables you to use your Gameboy Advance™ or Gameboy Advance SP™ to play video and audio files and read e-books from standard Compact Flash™ cards. You can use your PC and a normal Compact Flash card reader to transfer and convert your media files to the Compact Flash cards. There are currently 90 reviews (!!) for the GBA Movie Player, with an average rating of 4.5 stars on our GBA Movie Player page. Your GBA is not complete without this must-have add-on![br][br]The GBA Movie Player is not licensed, sponsored or supported by Nintendo. The difference to the AM3 Player (available in Japan only) is that you can play your own movies, while with the official one you can only play what you buy in a retail store. The AM3 Player cannot record your own movies, pictures or e-books, but the GBA Movie Player can without any limitations.[br][br]GBA Movie Player V2 - The New Version (US$ 24.90)[br][br]The new version of the GBA Movie Player, smaller, cooler, and with new hot features, will be released within a week and pre-orders are being accepted already now. The 2nd version of the popular device doesn't require a GBA cartridge to play your movies and is shipping for US$ 24.90. it now includes a new English user guide, a newly designed packing, the software CD with the now faster and easier to use Windows Software, and the Movie Player Demo CD you will only get at Lik Sang. Please place your order now to get your hands on the 2nd version as soon as it is out.[br][br]The Comparison Shots[br][br]Here are a few images to show you the difference between the old and the new versions. The other device you can see is the AM3 version, the officially licensed player (that can't play your own movies and images).[br][br]The Free Firmware Update - For all Existing Users[br][br]Next to the new hardware version, there are also some good news for all the current GBA Movie Player users. The new and free Firmware Upgrade will integrate a few new features to your player and fix existing bugs. Along with the new Windows Software that has been reworked (now easier and faster to use), the update also comes with a FC games player to emulate your homebrew stuff. Please take a closer look for more details on the features at the discussions in the GBA Movie Player Support Forums or just download the upgrade from our product page and start right away. Please note that the Firmware included with the Windows Software has already been replaced by the new one available on the product page or in the forum as well.[br][br][br]Cheap and Simple Compact Flash Reader for your PC (US$ 5.90)[br][br]For all of you who have no use at all for a Multi Card Reader 6in1 or anything like this, there is now a cheap alternative device, the Compact Flash Card Reader / Writer, for US$ 5.90 only. If you own a digital camera or a MP3 player using a Compact Flash, Smart Media, SD Card (etc), you might still want to consider the faster USB2 Multi Card Reader 6in1.

News From Nintendo DS News [br][br] Internet rumours from Canada are speculating that the GoldenEye game for Nintendo DS, which EA and Nintendo announced a short while back, is in fact based on Rare's seminal N64 classic, with the added bonus of link-up play for up to 16 players.[br]Although these reports remain pure speculation at this stage, one source is citing that this information is 100-percent "confirmed" and has been leaked from contacts at the publishing giant EA.[br][br]It's suggested that the game is being developed by EA, is exclusive to Nintendo and will allow for between eight-16 players to join in at any one time, with possibilities for wi-fi Internet play. It is, however, unknown whether the game will be built using the original engine.[br][br]So any substance to these rumours? Well at this stage we simply can't say as attempts to contact EA to query the publisher about the reports have so far proved fruitless - nobody has been available for comment.[br][br]Knowing how popular N64 GoldenEye was (and still is), however, we wouldn't be surprised if there was an element of truth to this story. Time will tell.

The forthcoming Nintendo DS handheld console won't be shown off at the Game Stars Live show in London next week, as some had hoped, although Nintendo will have an extensive line-up on its stand at the show.[br][br]The firm will be showing off titles including Metroid Prime 2: Echoes, Donkey Konga and Animal Crossing on the GameCube, while GBA owners will get to see the new Pokemon Fire Red and Leaf Green titles and The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap, among others.[br][br]However, there's no sign of the Nintendo DS in the company's line-up, which was announced today. Although it always seemed an outside chance at best, it had been hoped that the double-screened handheld would make its first public appearance at Game Stars Live, following its unveiling at E3.[br][br]Nintendo is also eschewing the Tokyo Games Show in late September, preferring to promote the DS at a number of smaller nationwide events ahead of its Japanese launch later this year.

In the latest issue of Nintendo Dream magazine, Nintendo spokesman Mitsuaki Hagishima revealed that there is a secret on the Nintendo DS' hardware. Located on the bottom-right side of the handheld, next to the earphone plug, is a square hole for which Nintendo has not given any explanation. [br][br]"There’s a little secret to this [hole]," comments Hagiwara in the magazine. "It looks as though you can plug something in there, but the stylus pen is going to be connected to the back [of the handheld], so…we’ll reveal more in the future." [br][br]Hagiwara also commented that Nintendo is currently considering the release of different color variations on the Nintendo DS, which would be similar to how the company has released different color models of the Game Boy Advance and GBA SP. [br][br]"There’s nothing specific decided about the coloring [of the DS], except that it will be two-toned," says Hagiwara. "We released three color variations when the GBA launched. We’re still thinking about what colors variations of the DS to release, but while taking into consideration the production efficiency, we’re thinking of releasing colors that are popular throughout the world, since it will be launched worldwide [at about the same time]."

News From Play Asia [br][br] It's just a pinball game, right? Hardly. It's a flipping adventure. Mario rolls through different worlds. Instead of performing his signature jump on enemies, Mario just steamrolls them in ball form. [br][br]Each pinball arena contains a door to the next level. You must shoot Mario into the door to open it and then shoot him through the door to advance to the next level. Of course, all your favorite baddies from the Mario universe stand in the way of Mario and the door. [br][br]In some levels, Mario can roll through special openings to face a boss character or pick up bonuses. Every time you knock out a bad guy, it leaves behind a coin. With those coins, you earn points. Toad also appears occasionally and hosts a shop where you can buy items. Buying an extra pipe is nice in times of need, or maybe you'd rather have the mushroom to transform into a super Mario ball. [br][br]Mario can also earn other bonuses. Once you defeat enough opponents, a question mark sometimes appears in the middle of the level. Once Mario rolls into it, bonus items appear in a box. Press the A Button to win the item that appears in the box, like an extra pipe to keep Mario from rolling past the flippers. The item can even be something bad, such as a reduction in points. [br][br]The controls are very, very simple. You just control the flippers at the bottom of the screen. However, the gameplay is so addictive that it's tough to stop once you get on a roll. [br][br]Super Mario Ball (also known as Mario Pinball Land outside of Japan) is now in stock at US$ 48.90 only.[br][br] As the skies of Metro City fill with giant mechs, Astro, a robot with human emotions, arrives in a blaze of glory to defend all that is good. Fueled by jet-powered legs, he buzzes the menacing beasts and blasts them with lethal laser fire from his fingertips. Astro will stop at nothing to protect the humans and robots of his city and as he does, he discovers he is far more powerful than he ever realized.[br][br]The US version of Treasure's action platform game Astro Boy: Omega Factor is now in stock at US$ 39.90. Still available is the Japanese version of the game at US$ 48.90 respectively.[br]

The GBA Movie Player Advance now adds a new interesting feature to its already amazing list, it can now play Nes Roms up to 200k in size which means it will support quite a few Nes games, heres what the official site says:[br][br]"Supported NES format file, which is 200k limited. Before you play FC game, do remember to put the Pocketnes.gba file to the root directory of the CF Card. Save function is not supported. Just copy the TXT format file to the CF Card then read it on the GBA/GBA SP."[br][br]Check out a review of this great piece of hardware via [br] Success HK</a

Metroid Prime 2 will form the backbone of Nintendo's Christmas Cube offering in Europe, while Pokemon Leaf Green/Fire Red and The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap stand tall in a diverse list of first party GBA offerings.[br][br]In a release issued this morning, Nintendo of Europe outlined its Christmas releases, starting with budget-priced party game WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Party Game$ on September 3rd and concluding with the release of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes.[br][br]In between, Cube owners can look forward to the long awaited, localised European release of Animal Crossing, also out on Sept 3rd, Pikmin 2 and Donkey Konga in October, and Paper Mario 2 and Namco's Tales of Symphonia in November, which ought to keep RPG fans happy for a month or so.[br][br]Curiously though there's no place on the list for Mario Party 6, which we had very much expected to see in its traditional pre-Christmas slot. Perhaps Nintendo bumped it to give Wario Ware a chance to shine? The list also virtually confirms recent reports - including one this morning - that Star Fox and Geist are now due out next year.[br][br]This leaves Nintendo, once again, with a lot of titles that are bound to gather critical acclaim - and almost certainly deservedly so - but with the exception of Metroid Prime 2 not that many that are likely to scythe through the competition during a hectic Christmas rush.[br][br]Any GBA owners bound to an elderly relative's couch this Christmas won't have too much to worry about, however, with a number of exciting titles due on the handheld - despite the impending launch of the Nintendo DS, which is due out in Europe in early 2005. In fact, it'll be interesting to see how GBA sales fare in the run-up to Christmas purely on that basis.[br][br]We'll be in the queue though, busily scrabbling to get hold of Mario Golf Advance Tour (Sept 17th), the eagerly awaited The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap (Nov 12th), Mario vs. Donkey Kong (Nov 19th), and - for the sake of working out what it is more than anything - "Super Mario Ball" (Nov 26th). Square die-hards will be pleased to see Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls down for early December, too.[br][br]Key exclusives due out on Nintendo platforms in the run up to Christmas:[br][br][br]GameCube[br][br]Wario Ware, Inc.: Mega Party Game$ - September 3rd[br][br]Animal Crossing - September 3rd[br][br]Pikmin 2 - October 8th[br][br]Donkey Konga - October 15th[br][br]Paper Mario 2: The Thousand Year Door - November 12th[br][br]Tales of Symphonia - November 19th[br][br]Metroid Prime 2: Echoes - November 26th[br][br][br][br]Game Boy Advance[br][br]Mario Golf Advance Tour - September 17th[br][br]Pokemon Leaf Green/Fire Red - October 1st[br][br]The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap - November 12th[br][br]Mario vs. Donkey Kong - November 19th[br][br]Super Mario Ball - November 26th[br][br]Mario Party Advance - December 3rd[br][br]Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls - December 10th
