Because it's still "just" a DS, there doesn't seem to be as much buzz over the DSi as there was the last DS handheld revision, the DS Lite. Just because there's no buzz, however, doesn't mean the thing's not selling.
As we've told you the third iteration of the DS has already sold 6.86 million units worldwide. But what's more remarkable than that impressive number is the speed at which consumers have snapped the device up.
According to Nintendo of America's vice president of corporate affairs, Denise Kaigler, the DSi has sold more units in its first three months on sale in the United States (1.7 million) than the original DS (1.38 million) could manage. More than the DS Lite (1.07 million) could manage. Heck, it's more than even the Wii (1.52 million) could manage.
Whether it can sustain that level of growth is doubtful, but hey, we're not talking about the future right now. We're only talking the present. Well, the present and the immediate past.

New Concept Gaming has announced the list of games compatible with its jOG accessory has passed the 100 mark, with more titles being added every week.
The jOG device is compatible with the Nintendo Wii that only allows character movement in a game when the player jogs on the spot. The idea is to encourage physical exercise whilst playing otherwise physically unchallenging games.
“The decision we made early in development to use ‘overlay’ technology has paid dividends as we see the compatibility list grow day by day,” explained Brendan Ludden, MD of New Concept Gaming.
“No other accessory in this field works with anywhere close to this number of games. While boredom is never far away with other fitness related peripherals, there will always be new fresh games coming through that will work perfectly with jOG, and with multiplayer fully supported too, the whole family can join in the fun”
The jOG works with any game that uses the Nunchuk joystick which immediately ensures its compatibility with most Wii titles, not just fitness related games such as Wii Fit and Mario and Sonic at the Olympics.
Games like Call of Duty 3 and Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition have been seen as a successful match with the jOG, where to avoid being shot by the enemy or ripped apart by zombie-like savages, you must get your own legs moving.

suloku has released Open Sram Language Modifier v4
This is an application to toggle sram settings such as the mono/stereo setting and the language used by gamecube games and the system IPL. The goal of this app is to make PAL gamecube games run on a NTSC gamecube/wii with the desired language, because all PAL games will play in english on a NSTC environment.
This is a clone of emu_kidid's sram language modifier 1.1 and it has the same features.
I made this in the hope of it working on the wii, using yagd and libogc functions.
http://hitmen.c02.at/files/yagcd/yag...0.html#sec10.5
The "open" is just to differ it from emu_kidid's, as he lost the source and I couldn't find a better name, sorry for that.
Changelog
Version 4 - 10 August 2009
Added warning message for wii's disk channel launching.
Fixed some issues when printing the language names on screen.

Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has said the company hopes to launch the Wii Vitality Sensor "not too late" in 2010.
Speaking in an investor Q&A he conceded there's work to do with regard to getting the concept of the device across. "The majority of the audience at E3 responded to it like, 'What in the world is Nintendo planning with a single pulse meter?'" he said.
According to Iwata your pulse indicates more than just your BPM - it can also provide "various kinds of information such as the condition of automatic nerve".
He continued, "Wii Vitality Sensor has great potential for various applications like measuring how horrified a player is in a horror title. What we are trying to propose first is a videogame with a theme of relaxation, which is completely opposite from traditional ones, to enrich the users' lives."
Specifically, the lives of those who have trouble unwinding after a busy day. "What if you were able to visualise how to unwind and relax, or check the condition of your automatic nerve by simply inserting your finger in the device once a day?"
Internal tests are already underway at Nintendo, where employees have been trying to improve the condition of their automatic nerves by visualising how they'll feel at the weekend. According to Iwata, patterns have started to emerge.
"You have all had an experience where you are not in tune with how your body is doing or aware of how exhausted you body may be in a busy, strained period, but if you can visibly measure your condition every day, you can start to see how you're doing," he said.
"It would be like stepping up on a scale every day and seeing the change of your weight. Our new challenge that is different from past software development is to make a videogame by using the visible activities of your automatic nerve."
As for those who are cynical about the Vitality Sensor's sales potential - people were also cynical about Wii Fit, observed Iwata. "Of course no one can tell how people respond to it before the launch. We understand everyone wants to enjoy a vibrant lifestyle, so I believe if the product could support that desire, it would make a large impact in society."

Nintendo boss Satoru Iwata has said he reckons the company's E3 2009 conference could have been better.
He was speaking during a financial results briefing, as reported by Nintendo Everything. "As for the media briefing at E3, of course we had many internal discussions after that," he said. "Honestly speaking, none of us at Nintendo thought that our presentation at E3 was as good as it could have been. It is apparent that we could not fully convey the charm of our products."
Previously, Iwata said, Nintendo was successful in showing off the likes of Wii Sports and Wii Fit "since it was something no one had ever seen or imagined before". But New Super Mario Bros. Wii was a bit tricker: "Four people lined up with Wii Remotes was not a scene that no one had ever seen. Those who actually had the chance to play understood how the game would change with four people playing simultaneously, but we could not address that fun sentiment at the media briefing."
In these days of webcasts and whatnot Nintendo needs to find "a better way to demonstrate the products' appeal", according to Iwata.
"In that sense, we learned many lessons from this year’s E3 show," he said. "After the media briefing, we had a domestic trade briefing in Japan. There we disclosed the black Wii console and red Nintendo DSi, which made a big buzz among game fans. It is also an important lesson for next year."

Big things expected from Wii Sports Resort, Wii Fit Plus and New Super Mario Bros Wii
Having admitted that both Wii Music and Animal Crossing: Let’s Go To The City have both underperformed at retail, Nintendo president Saturo Iwata has predicted big things for its upcoming Wii line-up.
“I believe that Wii Sports Resort, Wii Fit Plus and New Super Mario Bros Wii all have the potential to surpass 10m copies worldwide in the whole fiscal year,” he told investors.

News/release from funkystuff
I have finished my first real sort of game. I was too lazy to build a main menu or such or an ending but what i have here for you is my game of BrickBlox that I have built off the example I posted earlier. Source code is still useful but you will need to use your own makefile for whatever version of PAlib you are using.
Touch the ball to release it.
Use touch screen to control paddle.
Press R or L to launch a rocket.
I hope I see cool expansions from making this game open source with the rest of you. If you make any cool maps let me know so I can add them to my own version or include them on any updates.
How the bricks are loaded are through a map and tiles as you can see in the files. You can have a maximum of 80 bricks in 1 stage; any more and they will not load as a safety procedure by the game. Use the maps already created to get a reference of how they are made.
Hope you have fun with this!

pembo has updated BootMii Configuration Editor to v2.4
BootMii configuration editor allows you to change the values in the /bootmii/bootmii.ini file without having to take out the SD card and edit it on a PC.
ChangeLog
Version 2.4
Automatic download/updating of application when a new version is released
Additional option in the settings menu (accessed via the ‘home’ button). This option allows to enable/disable the automatic update/version checking and is particularly useful if you run this on a wii without an internet connection
Settings File paths are now resolved from the argv/argc parameters when supplied from the loader (N.B. the homebrew channel does provide these). If not supplied then a default location of 'SD:/apps/Bootmii_cfg_ed‘ is assumed
