The game has more retro kind of style than previous 3D metroid games, and it is hard to tell from the trailer if the game is a 1. person adventure or a 2D sidescroller in 3D!

New SMB Wii is now the game I am looking most forward to. It is like New Super Mario Brothers for the DS but with a 4-player multiplayer twist! It is going to be awesome to play co-op and battle with my friends.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Originally Nintendo just wanted to create an update for Galaxy (like Super Mario Galaxy 1.5), but they had so many new ideas to put into the game, that they decided to create a whole new sequel. Now you will also be able to ride and play with Yoshi

Other things Nintendo announced at E3 2009:

Soon a new black Wii model will be available. This is actually the color that the Wii had in its early development before Nintendo decided to make it white instead.

Nintendo also showed demos of games, which will support their motion sensor plus: Wii Fit Plus, Wii Sports Resort and Red Steel 2. Wii will also get its own Dead Space game: Dead Space Extraction. This will be a shooter in style with Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles.

Many people are doubtful towards the R4i / R4 card for Nintendo DS. I've seen countless threads asking about the R4i SDHC / R4 SDHC flash cards, and whether they genuinely work or not. When it comes to electronics produced in China, people are generally skeptical towards them. It's natural, of course. In this article, I will try to explain what R4i / R4 cards are, and attempt to dispel some rumours about them that have been floating around on the web.

A DS R4 / R4i card is a storage device that enables you to store and view data such as images, text files, videos, sound files or homebrew games. The R4 / R4i card bypasses the encryption on the Nintendo DS, enabling files to be run straight from a storage medium such as a Micro SD card. Second generation flash cards such as the R4 / R4i make use of the DS game card slot (SLOT-1), instead of the GBA game card slot (SLOT-2), making them easier to use.

In a nutshell, the R4 / R4i is just a card which enables you to run multimedia files or game files on your DS. No editing of the system files is required; it is strictly a 'soft mod' that does not affect your NDS in any way. You just insert the R4i / R4 card into the game slot, and the R4 / R4i software will run.

Now, a lot of people ask why there are so many variations of the R4 / R4i flash card out there. This happens because there are many producers out there who make dupes of the original R4i card. A lot of these cards, particularly the ones that provide links to Taiwanese websites may damage your DS. Make sure to always do research online before buying your R4 / R4i card.

A Pandora battery or a jigkick battery is used for a PlayStation Portable. It puts the PSP into service mode and thus allows it to enter the software or firmware loaded onto the memory stick. wii softmod
