Excellent news, fans of ... various ... services ... being made available through Wii Channels! There's one more item of Channel-related news out today. A trademark found on the European trademark database suggests that Nintendo is looking to take its Digicam Print Channel to Europe (and potentially elsewhere) as the "Photo Print Service Channel".
The Digicam Print Channel, a service offered through a deal with Fujifilm, allows Wii owners to order prints of photos saved to an SD card, create customizable Nintendo-themed photo albums, and even order business cards featuring Nintendo backgrounds and Mii pictures. The business cards are available in Japan as Club Nintendo rewards.
We've been coveting those Mii business cards for a while, though not enough to make our own imitation and just go to Kinko's. Being able to get the genuine article through the Wii would be lovely.

You don't have to be a seasoned photojournalist -- even one who's covered wars -- to recognize inconsistencies between Dead Rising: Chop Til You Drop and the Xbox 360 original. Now, Capcom's Colin Ferris has stepped up to defend the February release, stating that while the company is "quite concerned" over criticism of the title, it "was not designed for side-by-side graphics comparisons with the 360." Instead, the product marketing manager states simply that it "was designed to be a fun Wii game."
Ferris openly admits that the Wii-take won't look as "beautiful" as the original, nor will the Willamette Parkview Mall's escalators be as crowded with the recently deceased, facts we have already accepted, albeit begrudgingly. "Does that mean we should deny Wii gamers the joy that 360 owners had in surviving three days in a zombie-infested mall," asks Ferris. "The answer is, obviously, no." Dead Rising: Chop Til You Drop is expected to shamble onto retail shelves for the Wii on February 24.

At first glance, we actually gagged upon seeing the jacket pictured above. Immediately after regaining our composure, we wondered how on Earth such a magnificent piece of retro kit could have such a negative impact on our lives -- then, it hit us. It's the dude. Seriously. Strap this $200, limited run jacket on anyone even remotely beautiful and we'd bet you too would see things differently. Or maybe it is just obscenely tacky, but it'd be much less so on anyone other than this fellow.

Some of you may remember Nintendo of Japan offering custom business cards with your Mii from their Digi Cam Print Channel. The service went live last year, but only in Japan. In the future, however, you might be able to get a stack of Mii name cards without traveling halfway around the world.
Searching through the European Trademark Database I discovered Nintendo registered Wii Photo Print Channel which sounds like the already available Digi Cam Print Channel. Since this is just a trademark we don’t know when Nintendo will launch such a program and if it’s only for Europe. I am inclined to believe Nintendo has plans for a Wii Photo Print Channel though. Registering trademarks still cost money even if Nintendo “prints” it. Let’s just hope the Wii Photo Print Channel includes the unique options like photo books and name cards in addition to boring old prints.

Square Enix sent word by Moogle mail today that Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Echoes of Time should arrive punctually at North American retail on March 24. Echoes allows Wii and DS gamers to play alongside one another with a bit less hassle than the original Crystal Chronicles. Remember all those link cables?
The game will cost $40 on either platform and will allow Wii players to use their Miis, some of which no doubt already look like Final Fantasy creatures.

We're well aware that there's a drug-dealing component to GTA: Chinatown Wars, but the details on it have been a little lacking -- this post won't help much. MTV Multiplayer learned that players may want to sell drugs in Chinatown Wars because cash from missions won't dramatically increase in payout, unlike other GTA titles. Selling drugs is apparently one way to increase cash flow.
According to Rockstar, locations for deals are plentiful and won't detract from the action in the game. The drug economy is also affected by destruction of CCTV cameras. The more you break, the less valuable the drugs become (yes, less, it seems counter-intuitive). No word yet if Rockstar plans to have drug prices in the game reflect current standard market rates.

t was inevitable we guess what with everyone plus your grandma using the Wii. Now Nintendo Japan has announced a new Wii "Check-Up" channel that acts as a health guidance system between you and health professionals. Scheduled for an April launch, the system developed in partnership with Hitachi, NEC, Panasonic and a health insurance company is said to provide 2-way communication between users and health leaders who'll provide "healthy guidance" to otherwise Cheeto-stained gamer-types. The service appears to be compatible with both Wii Fit and its Balance Board as well as NEC's mobile phone health platform for checking progress or accessing advice remotely. It also appears to be usable anonymously. We'll update you just as soon as we get all these Japanese press releases translated.

News/release from SaviorXTanren
So, even before I really heard about DS homebrew, the greatest thing I could think of to come up with was a custom version of Wario Ware. It's such a fun little game and just think of how much better it would be if you could customize it and put any and all of your own or other people's games into it. Well, so I had a lot of free time together and decided to start working on a version of Wario Ware, simply dubbed "Wario Ware Custom".
I've come up with a running version of the games that consists of mini-games, single player mode, a game collection viewing mode, and a single DS multi-player mode. I've also assembled two videos that are hosted online that show you a run-through of single player mode and multi-player mode.
Ver 1.7: Alright, so two notices.
First, I've made a few updates to the game, mainly graphical things. I added the top screen image that drawn very nicely for me by Kikaimaster. =D Also, I added in the Objection! mini-game. Any fans of the Phoenix Wright game will get a good laugh. =) I also made a temporary icon for the game logo, it's just the current bomb sprite, but it looks sorta of crudy in 8-bit, but oh well.
Second, I entered this game in the Drunken Coder's Winter 2008 Competition. The version that I had in this post is the one that entered in there. Still some development things here and there, but looks like a decently complete game. =P Let's see how well it does. HA HA [/SARCASM] =D
Ver 1.6: Alright guys! HUUUUUUUUUGE UPDATE! So, I'll start with the little stuff first and then move on to the really big, exciting stuff =D.
So, I've added in two new games and took out that "Touch The X's" game, since it was pretty much the same thing as "Pop The Dots". The two new games are "Kick The Football", which uses the Stylus to make a slash on the touch screen to kick the football in that direction and "Build The Bridge", which has you shift around pieces of a bridge to form a larger bridge to allow a car to pass over it.
In addition to these two new games, I have updated all of the other games for 3 levels of speed and 3 levels of difficulty modes. So, if you remember in the normal WarioWare games how there is varying speed and difficulty modes? Well, now they are in this one, for the 9 games that exist at least =P. Some of the difficulty modes are easier to spot than others, but every games has a shortened time limit and sped up music for the different speed changes.
Finally, the last and biggest update...*drum roll*...The first multi-player mode is up and running! This is a SINGLE DS multi-player mode, which is unique in itself. You only need one DS and up to 4 players can play. You simply pass the DS around when the appropriate player comes up, sorta of similar to how the Wii WarioWare multi-player games work. It's got graphics, sound, the whole nine yards. Note, the graphics may not be up to cutting edge right now, everything that's not the title screens and menus (which have been graciously done by James Garner and Kikaimaster), was made by me in Paint. =P
