Pokémon Platinum, a beefed-up version of the Diamond and Pearl games that released in 2007, will have British kids shouting "I choose you, Giratina" from May 22.
It's the same deal as with previous enhanced games, Pokémon Yellow, Crystal and Emerald - you get pretty much the same adventure, but with a host of new features and areas to explore.
New stuff includes "new ways to play online at the Wi-Fi Plaza over the Nintendo Wi-Fi connection and the ability to save your greatest victories in the Vs. Recorder."
You'll also get to explore a "brand new Distortion World, governed by neither time nor space", which'll get little Jonny all excited in his Pokémon-branded boots.
And then there's the appearance of Giratina in it's new "Forme", the Origin Forme. That's brilliant too, right Poké-people?
Battle is updated, too. "An all-new Battle Frontier, a special building packed with challenges and tournaments, is accessible after defeating the 'Elite Four' and the Pokémon League Champion - the game's final boss Trainers - and gaining a ferry ticket to the Fight Area.
"In addition, the Global Trade Station from Pokémon Diamond Version and Pokémon Pearl Version has been expanded and renamed the Global Terminal, where you can check out other people's battles," explains Nintendo.

Square Enix has delayed the release of Dragon Question IX in Japan because of a recently discovered "critical bug" in the software.
The DS-exclusive RPG will now launch on 11th July across the region. A European date, the publisher told Eurogamer, remains TBC.
"It has been recently discovered that the software in development contains an unforeseen critical bug," said the Square Enix in a statement.
"Although much effort has been made to fix this bug and test the usability in hopes that the game could still be released on the originally announced date, we have reached an unfortunate conclusion that it would take a longer time to fulfil these tasks in order to assure our customers of a product that they can enjoy safely."
The DQ IX delay, along with a predicted under-performance of offline games, has caused the RPG specialist to lower yearly earning forecasts by 16 per cent. That represents a loss of JPY 27 billion, or approximately GBP 211 million.
The Square Enix financial papers blame "a severe business environment".
We've not seen anything of Dragon Quest IX since an early preview back in 2007. Still, this remains one of - if not the - biggest RPG series in Japan, and developer Level 5 will be lavishing the expected amount of care we've come to expect of each fully-fledged instalment in the series.
And if the quality of Dragon Quest VIII: Journey of the Cursed King on PS2 is anything to go by, then we're in for a treat.

News/release from TGYET
Hello!
I'm here to present to you our game, which name is "Memento Tui Sceleris". It is an interactive novel like Hotel Dusk or Ace Attorney.
About the style: if you like "Higurashi no Naku koro ni" or "Jigoku Shoujo" then I think you will like this, too. At the moment the basics of the program and the tools are finished. So here is the tech demo which contains all features that the game has at the moment. It is important, that all images and sounds are from the internet and won't be in the final game. Also if anybody is interested in tools, they can download some picture from them.
Then, let's see the plot summary:
Quote
There is a hearsay, if somebody stays merely one day in Dreamsville, then his/her dreams come true. Thanks for that the village can live from the tourists, who want to happen the miracle with them too. An investigative reporter, William DeTrurith also visits the place to find out this is the truth or just a smart „advertisement”. However an unexpected event happens: hardly, that he arrives, the village's mayor is murdered brutally the same day at night. He is clenching his torn out tongue in his hand and the „LIAR” word was carved onto his forehead. He is the first who finds the body, but before he can examine it, from behind somebody knocks him out and the next day he awakes in his apartment. After he wakes up, he rushes to the site where the policemen closed the case already: the mayor committed suicide…
What may have happened? Why was he murdered in a peaceful village like this? May he committed a suicide? Who did that? What was his/her motive? As William come closer to the truth, he will meet darker, more wicked and more bizarre things…
Some information about the game:
- It contains six active and two passive chapters.
- Playing time is 12-30 hours ( one chapter is between 2-5 hours)
- It contains voice acting in the most important scenes. (I hope we can use a special feature which is secret for now...)
- Headphone is recommended!
- There are 11 main characters.
- It has gore and some very bloody scenes.
- Every chapter has a different storytelling.
- "Mini games" and puzzles will use touchscreen and microphone.
Some information about the engine:
- It uses PALib, AS_Lib, EFSv2
- The engine is fully scriptable via my own command based script language. (So there are no graphics, sound, game content in the engine)
- It uses Spinal's movie player with some modifications.
- It supports Rumble Pack!
- Everybody can create her/his own game with the tools. (Which will be released (maybe with source) after the game is finished!)
- It uses sprites and normal background only!
Finally, if you interested in this project and want to (and can) help, or found a bug or problem then please send an e-mail to me: bezzgyuri(AT)freemail.hu
Thanks for reading this and have a good game with the tech demo!

Aspyr, publishers of several PC to Mac ports as well as the upcoming DS title Touch Mechanic, revealed its first original Nintendo DS game for release later this year: Treasure World.
The game is being internally developed at Aspyr and will enable players to collect items by standing in real world areas with Wi-Fi hotspots.

AnyTitle Deleter MOD is an unofficial mod by Red Squirrel of tona's AnyTitle Deleter.
It keeps all original tona's AnyTitle Deleter functions but it allows the program to show the real names of titles instead of just ID numbers, making it easier to select which ones you actually want to delete.

-Changed the buttons configuration: now with "HOME" you'll backup all installed titles into SD, with "1" you'll exit from the program returning to Homebrew Channel and with "2" you'll exit from the program rebooting the Wii.
-Changed the number of titles shown in a page: now they will be 12 instead 17 (to fix visualization issues).

Oxygen Games is pleased to announce a new, fun and frantic multi-platform gaming experience with Hysteria Hospital: Emergency Ward.
At Hysteria Hospital, life will prove to be a manic challenge. Players will have several levels of the hospital to navigate, and they will have to reach desperate patients and demanding doctors within a set period of time. The frenzy inside the hospital will increase as the game progresses with more and more demanding patients desperate to be cured!
It's just a usual day in Hysteria Hospital – another torrent of patients threatens to turn the emergency ward into chaos. Only one person can control the frantic situation - can you keep your patients happy when your ward is overrun? Play as a female or male nurse and organize the ward and direct the patients to treat their conditions as quickly as possible. Design and improve your ward for life-saving efficiency to be the best head nurse in America and save the hospital from being overrun!
Each of the patients have many humorous conditions, all with cures using the latest, bleeding-edge treatment machines ranging from basic x-rays to 'steam therapy' to the hilarious De-Stress machine. There are 7 different wards to run, from a local Maryville clinic through to New York Central Hospital, and over 60 levels of gameplay including the 'Endless' mode that steadily increases in challenge as you progress.
"We've spent a lot of time researching what audiences want in a good casual game and we've incorporated these into Hysteria Hospital: Emergency Ward," said Oxygen Games CEO Jim Scott. "Hysteria Hospital is very funny, very frantic and is sure to entertain gamers of all ages."
Hysteria Hospital: Emergency Ward is set for release on Wii, Nintendo DS and PC in April 2009.

Blue Dragon: Ikai no Kyojyuu, you know the Blue Dragon game that has the feel of a MMO, lets players create a hero and flip shadows. Shadows have always been an integral part of the Blue Dragon mythology. They’re essentially the source of power for Shu and his friends.
In Blue Dragon: Ikai no Kyojuu everyone’s shadows mysteriously disappeared. Now, only the player character has the ability to summon shadows and he or she has a handful of them. Shadows act like job classes. They have individual levels and as they grow you get access to more skills.
Six shadows are confirmed to be in Namco Bandai’s Blue Dragon game. Shu’s Dragon shadow is your basic melee class, it’s good for dealing damage and has average HP. The Minotaur shadow specializes in recovery magic while the Phoenix shadow dishes out attack magic. Both of these shadows have lower defense as a tradeoff. The other three shadows with unknown stats and appear later in the game are: Devil, Hercules Beetle, and Mecha Robo. Sadly, the Poo Snake shadow didn’t make the cut.
