| Came here to meet Squishy? CLICK HERE TO SEE SQUISHY'S MYSPACE! May/June 2006 Issue Quote Of The Whenever: "Work is love made visible" - Kahlil Gibran 06.28 - Quick note - Oh, the Pink DS Lite has been confirmed and will be called: "Noble Pink." Nice. Oh, if you're here from NeoGaf for some reason, we don't update a zillion times a day; but we're not dead! GBStation is, EAGB is on life support, Zelda HQ and the GIA are both dead.. but.. damn I miss them. I also did some stuff for Zelda HQ. Anyhow, I lurk at NeoGaf. And yes, N64.com become IGN64.com when Nintendo bought the name from the Nintendojo alumni that ran it (Peer and Matt). They used the money from the sale to start some of the infrastructure for IGN64.com and eventually IGN. So, they got their start from Nintendo, so they could make a self-important series of tacky sites devoted to talking smack about Nintendo. And yes, we were one of their affiliates. We aren't anymore, so I guess I should break this graphic out of retirement.   06.27 - News and such! - It's been a little bit of a while and we apologize for that. The DS Lite ws released in the US of A, and also released in Europe. Europe got a black color. In DS news, Final Fantasy III will use WiFi features, the WiFi Tenchu DS will be a GameStop exclusive, and Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin may end up including a WiFi co-op mode; but that last bit is not confirmed. The big thing is that a port of Sonic the Hedgehog 1 (with an added save feature and Sonic's ground charge spin dash move) will debut on Game Boy Micro this November for $19.99MSRP. Not bad! The "third pillar" may seem ill supported these days; but it IS getting more games before the end of the year than both the Xbox and the Game Cube! The Sony PSP is getting a gorgeous remake of Tomb Raider 1 and a port of Tales of Phantasia this Winter as well. There is also a bit of a rumor currently that July 20th will see the release of a Pink DS Lite for Japan. OH NOES!!! ZOMGWTF Pink FTW! Or something along that line. I have a lot of work to do; because of what our next issue contains. Wanna know what the next issue will contain? Here is a sneak peek!
06.12 - A-Kon HAS PASSED! - Well, that was fun! No internet while I was there. That was bad. But we are back, and we have pictures! Also, the next chapter of Don't Panic. The A-Kon coverage will be up later tonight. Woo! Rejoice! The A-Kon photos are oddly named. I know this. It's okay. 06.08 - A-Kon is coming, can I find my ticket? - Hope so! Anyhow, new article up in the coverage. More later this week!
06.03 - A-Kon is coming, did you bring your coat? - A-Kon is my "vacation" convention! All the companies that are there have cut and dry conferences, where I get to do some real reporting without having to wade through lines and lines of fluff and "video game politics." Also, I intend to get you lots of neat SQUISHY content! Why Squishy? Well, thanks to YouTube.. I have someplace to put videos and such. O_O To test it out, I put up a few videos of Squishy. The first being a strange.. umm.. hand thing with Squishy. I've been working on uploading some more stuff like that.. but YouTube is really.. fickle and most of the stuff I have is in MOV or M4V format.
05.29 - They start.. - Okay. Remember that this site is divided into Bi-Monthly "issues" and that our content takes a while to get out. The reason for this, is because it is so delicious. Speaking of delicious.. the second chapter revision of Don't Panic is up! Well, the thing with the revisions is that I wanted to finish up Don't Panic.. AND I wanted to fix up chapters in it that I was not happy with. I drastically overhauled "Chapter Two: What To Bring And Why You Brought It" into a longer, meaner, and more focused chapter.. The important thing is that I like it now. In terms of actual news? There was a bit ago, where people were saying the Game Boy was dead and I'll get into that in our E3 coverage. Iwata came out and stated that the Game Boy is NOT dead; but right now.. they want to shine a spotlight on the 100+ DS games coming out between now and the end of the fiscal year, as well as the Wii. The fact is, the Game Boy will chug along at a steady clip all the way into 2007, as it still has games scheduled into early 2007, ending close to *gasp* May 2007. Nintendo releases a new Game Boy family iteration on a schedule, so 2007 will be interesting. We got the GBC in 1998, the GBA in 2001, the GBA SP in 2003, the DS in 2004, the GBM in 2005, the DS Lite in 2006, and so on. Oh! Nintendo of Japan has announced a DS Lite styled Rumble Pak. This should hit import stores fairly quickly and is so worth the money. If you aren't annoyed at Reggie Fils Aime yet, he's now the president of Nintendo of America. Here's some names he should take: MOTHER 1 + 2, and MOTHER 3. How about it, Reggie? Or do you not have the BALLS to give them a US release? Yes, I said it. Reggie, your balls are too tiny because you obviously aren't man enough to push the MOTHER games into the US market. It seems that Europe is apparently getting MOTHER 3. They also got Asterix XXL in all its 3D goodness, Alien Hominid, Payback, and Comix Zone. Is there much news out there? Well, the DS Lite hits our markets real soon, so buy one. It will be delicious.
05.26 - Where are we? - Well, E3 came, went, and it was a lot. O_O That said, the pictures have all been resized to more server friendly proportions, and transcripting on a lot of our items are almost done. Please bear with it. Rumors of our demise have been greatly exaggerated. Right now, we're just clearing up a little bit on what we can and can not say. >_< N.D.A.s... but it's good. Please bear with us! 05.13 - Bitter Tea - There is a ton of new content to put up. In fact, we have a three part interview with Atlus that will be transcribed and put on the site. (We also have video of it. Which, will be available soon. Just.. it's huge. Sadly, I have the worst video equipment in the world.) There are a bunch of E3 reports we have not put up yet but they will find their way online in the upcoming days. Finishing up some fairly detailed impressions on the Wii for those in the want to know category. I also beat Sonic The Hedgehog on the Virtual Console. Gonna talk about the most evil concept for a video game at E3, lots of gameplay impressions, and more! Working on trying to get the tons of pictures online. What we're gonna do.. is buff together a way for you to download ALL of our E3 images and the huge video files in a single RAR and ZIP file soon. It's actually gotten rather.. huge... Anyhow, there shall be play impressions for several GBA/DS/Wii titles, a few exceptional PC MMORPGs I played through, some disturbing cell phone games, and the best Cardboard Tube ever. Second chapter of Don't Panic will be up soon. Oh! Apparently, Nintendo of Europe said that they will be bring Mother 3 to Europe. Interesting..
05.08 - Nevers - And then it hits me (slap), I've left it off my map! But you should definately not ever forget! Anyhow, new article up! Some of the staff has put together a top ten list of what we want to see at E3 this year. It is fictional because some of it may not happen; but it would rock hard if it happened. You get what I mean? Click here and then click on it. Also, the image dump is open with some new pictures of Squishy. They are sweet indeed! 05.07 - Californified - Arrived in California yesterday, and just put up the newly revamped, re-edited, and longer first chapter of Don't Panic! Click here to jump down to the coverage! 05.05 - Shine - Please click here to see what has been added to our E3 coverage. I feel that this website is just as personal to me as it has always been. DMG Ice has been around for over eight years... lots of sweat, blood, and tears has gone into the content here and the choices here. So, please read the first bit of our E3/A-Kon coverage and relax. We're here for you! 05.04 - DS Lite Price announce! - Quick update! DS Lite - June 11th, $129.99. Only color at launch will be Polar White with other colors arriving at seperate dates. The original Nintendo DS will be slowly discontinued at many retailers. Well, we have the Wii, the Nintendo DS Lite date, and quite a few early game announcements. What in the world does Nintendo have LEFT for us?
05.04 - It begins.. - Have you been laying awake at night, wondering what wii were going to do about covering E3? Well, breathe a sigh of relief; because you may now go about your life again for a reasonable amount of time! Clicking on that link next to the newsity title above takes you to our E3 and A-Kon coverage! This year, I want to try and get some reasonable coverages, so I will be employing a few free places like YouTube to complement our coverage here. Lots and lots off pictures will be shown and I hope to have Squishy Tales resume with E3 2006 stuff as well. Don't Panic is back this year in a 2.0 version. I will be updating and expanding the five chapters that have already been completed, while working on the sixth and seventh chapters, which will now be named: Mostly Charmless, and A Tasty Aquatic Creature of Regret. Our E3/A-Kon coverage will have its own section after the May/June Issue is out of circulation and this year. As for news outside of our circle here? Majesco has apparently licensed Cooking Mama for US distribution! Yay? I was hoping for Nintendo, Konami, Capcom, or Atlus to pick it up; but wii will just have to deal with it. Later today, Nintendo is set to announce the launch date for the Nintendo DS Lite. It appears to be retailing in the USA in June for $149.95 and the older Nintendo DS units will drop in price and be discontinued. Wii will have final confirmation on this story when wii have final confirmation on this story. |
