A recent listing on Play-Asia has fans of tightly arranged, slowly approaching extraterrestrials buzzing with glee. According to the retailer (as well as a handful of other Japanese games dealers), Space Invaders Extreme 2, which hasn't even been confirmed by prospective developer Taito, is set to drop in Japan on March 26, 2009. These listings fire off a few of the title's new features, including new boss formations, enhanced multiplayer modes, and much to the delight of the grandmas among us, a "bingo system".
We're still calling this a rumor until Taito either confirms or denies it, but with several sites showing the same drop date, and with retailers divulging what seems like fairly believable gameplay features, we wouldn't be surprised if the listings are on the level.

News/release from Gemesis
Hi everyone, this is my newest game, Battle of the Worlds. The game is thoroughly explained in the readme, so I will briefly explain it here:
Battle of the Worlds is a 2D fighting game. It consists of many characters and levels. The reason its is called Battle of the Worlds is because in this game, each character or level comes from a different "world". This is leads us to the most exciting part:
Thanks to the way I have made this game, there is NO LIMIT to how many characters or levels you can have! The only limit is how big your flash cart is! On top of that, you can add your own custom levels and character fairly easily (process described in the readmes included with the download). While there are certain requirements, they are not that big of a deal. I am currently working on making the customization system much more relaxed, but this demo was meant to show everyone how the basic system will work. If you don't want to make any levels, I have included 2 levels with it and a character. As of now, you are limited to loading 2 characters, but I am going to work on making a way to show them all. On a side note, I am going to try and make some level and character packs that you can download and use. I am also able to include levels as part of the game with efs.
I plan to make this game have ai's to fight, along with possibly multiplayer modes as well. I would like to thanks the following for their part in this game:
Game Created by: GEMISIS
PAGFX and giftoframes Created by: The Creators of Palib
The Mario sprite, Hyrule level, and Mario level all belong to: Nintendo
I would like to give a special thanks to the creators of Palib as well, as this game would not have been possible without palib.

If hints on Japanese retailer websites are anything to go by, Taito and Square Enix are hard at work producing a sequel to last year's marvelous retro remake, Space Invaders Extreme.
Leaks on websites such as Amazon's Japanese component are listing Space Invaders Extreme 2 for a March 2009 release. Included game descriptions that reveal new modes and boss battles indicate these retailer listings are legitimate and not just guesses.
The original Space Invaders Extreme, released in late 2008, won IGN awards for Best Nintendo DS and Best PlayStation Portable Shooting Games, as well as Best Artistic Design and Best Original Score on the Nintendo handheld.

Like several DS games before it, “Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars” will have Wi-Fi support. Rockstar Games isn’t ready to detail that support yet. Company representatives at a hands-on demo I was provided this week aren’t saying, for example, how the game’s multiplayer modes will work and whether they involve short-range wireless play or over-the-Internet play or what.
But what Rockstar reps did make clear is that ‘GTA: Chinatown Wars” is designed to be a game worth trading Nintendo Friend Codes for, maybe for competing against each other, maybe for swapping scores in the games’ gold-silver-bronze-ranked missions… something.
Amidst all of that, the Rockstar folks did tell me about one tantalizing feature that I’ve since decided more games would benefit from: the ability to send gamers mapped waypoints over Wi-Fi. The implications are grand and could revolutionize the way gamers seek and get help for games they’re stuck in.
Here’s how the feature might work: the lower DS screen in “Chinatown Wars” displays a mini-map. Tapping on it causes the entire lower screen to render a draggable, zooomed-in road map of the game’s Liberty City. Tapping on any location on that map wil mark a waypoint. On the map, the game will draw the shortest legal path to that destination. That’s as much as I saw. What I didn’t see is how this feature would be brought online, though it was explained to me: simply, a gamer can connect with a friend over Wi-Fi and then send that waypoint data to a friend’s DS.
Imagine being stuck in any game and not knowing where to go next or not knowing where some great hidden item is. Typically, your options to extricate yourself from the jam would involve: logging onto GameFAQs, stumbling through an IM conversation with a friend to figure out what you missed, or having another friend take the controller in her hands and get you to the spot herself.
“Chinatown Wars” allows for something different. Forget all those other ways of getting help. If you don’t know where to go in the game and we’re DS friends, it seems that I’ll be able to mark a waypoint in my copy of the game and zap it to your copy of the game. What better help could I possibly provide?
Imagine, readers, if you could do that for me, sending map markers into my copies of my games. You could put a mark on my “Fallout 3” map to tell me where I need to go to get some cool new item. You could send me a marker for a spot in “Burnout” where you think I can make a good stunt run.
If Rockstar does deliver this feature as they described it to me, then what they’re providing may radically change the way we help each other play games. They’ll be improving gaming lives everywhere.
“Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars” ships for the Nintendo DS on March 17.

Dwedit has popped up with a new version of his TI83 Emulator for GBA, heres the release notes:
Here is a Multiboot version of the TI83 emulator.
If you trim the TI83 rom, the file size of the rom is about 215900 bytes large.
You can also attach a .83G file up to about 14000 bytes large, and use L+R to send it.
If the GBAMP firmware refuses to boot the file, use the PocketNES firmware instead.
Edit: Using Pocketnes firmware to run the emulator may be buggy. It crashed when I tried sending a game to the emulator. Using GBAMP's firmware didn't boot the emulator at all for me.

Armin Tamzarian released FreeTypeGX v0.2.3 :
FreeTypeGX is a wrapper class for libFreeType which renders a compiled FreeType parsable font into a GX texture for Wii homebrew development. FreeTypeGX is written in C++ and makes use of a selectable pre-buffered or buffer-on-demand methodology to allow fast and efficient printing of text to the EFB.
Note: As of version 0.2.1 FreeTypeGX has forked into two disparate projects and now relies upon the Metaphrasis library.
This library was developed in-full by Armin Tamzarian with the support of developers in #wiibrew on EFnet, Chaosteil of libwiisprite, and DrTwox of GRRLIB.
Full Doxygen API documentation is included within the download archive for assistance with program integration.

The Spanish publication Nintendo Accion recently teased that SEGA may be prepping a new Mario & Sonic at the Olympics sequel set to revolve around the winter games. It is apparently going to reveal much more about the project in next month's issue. Naturally, scans of the magazine set off a flurry of speculation about whether or not the rumor is true as soon as they hit the Web, and SEGA's official statement is only that it does not comment on rumors.
IGN's done a little digging, though, and has independently confirmed that the game is in development and set to be announced in the next month -- which, by the way, really isn't hard to believe given the astronomical sales figures for the first title in the franchise.
Look out for more coverage on the sequel when it's officially unveiled. Until, let the speculation wars rage on about which winter games will and won't make the cut, and just as importantly, whether the title will support Wii MotionPlus, as we all hope it will.

The Codemii Team have released a new version of the HomeBrew Browser for the Nintendo Wii, heres whats new:
24 January 2009 (v0.2.5b)
Keep retrying networking initialisation
Now shows the progress when extracting the zip files (thanks Tantric)
Detects the ftpii directory when using a password like ftpii_mypass
Keep meta.xml name when updating if it has been edited
Added more error checking when updating HBB, if updating fails it reverts back to the previous version
Media category becoming unavailable should now be fixed
Fixed controller screen to display accurate Dpad information
A few small things have been added to the HBB as shown above. The media category bug has finally been fixed as far as I can tell which is good news  . The extracting screen now has a progress bar thanks to Tantric and the network initialisation has been changed to keep retrying if it fails.
If you haven’t noticed some new pages on the blog I’ll point them out. The first one is HBB Development which gives you up to date information about the HBB development, features planned, bugs found, etc. You can also sign up, comment and submit bug reports. The second page is the HBB Guide which explains how things work.
