Microsoft are set to release the Xbox 360 Elite model in Japan on October 11 for 47,800 Yen. You don’t care, I don’t care and come October, neither will Japan.
Despite the already bolstering Virtual console, with downloadable Neo Geo titles around the corner, the possibility of downloadable Sega Saturn games, new channels and the recently announced WiiWare - Nintendo are adamant that there will be no hard drive for the Wii. If Nintendo really think that 512 MB of on board flash memory and having to keep switching between SD cards is a sound storage solution, then somebody at Nintendo HQ is smoking crack.

This post is old; I originally posted it on my.qj.net back in March, and then on my own blog, Warriors of Gaming. As such, it is slightly out of date. However, it still holds true and it reflects my core beliefs about the gaming community. It’s pretty long, so it’s after the split.
Apparently, those of you lucky enough to have a Wii right now are going to have an easier time modding your Wii to your likings.
The new Wiis, which are part of new shipments of the console, have an altered circuit layout that makes modification more difficult than in earlier versions. Users attempting to mod the new consoles using current modchips are very likely to damage the system, the sources pointed out.
Hopefully, this will give you hackers a headstart.

I really don’t like this. Microsoft stated that it’s already working on another XBox. Well, I’m not really worried about they making it, since it’s obvious they would, but my question is WHEN and HOW.
Microsoft member Chris Lewis told to European site Kikizo:
You can’t sit back on your laurels in this business - the consumer won’t let you, the developers certainly won’t let us. So that’s happening right now.
Has Microsoft decided to enter the motion-sensing arena? Or Will they apply more horsepower to the graphical way until we can see videogame characters’ facial imperfections or splats of makeup that male RPG characters use? and also… Will they wait the 5-year minimum limit between generation and generation to launch their console?

Welcome to the first edition of Clash of the Geekus, a weekly column in which 2 or more of our Editors sit down to discuss a hot topic of the week. Today we have Nahu and Velcor as our host editors. Enjoy!
This week we have seen a lot of talk about Pink. Reports of people preferring the pink DS Phat over the new & sleek DS lite boggle the mind. Later this same week we found out Nintendo is planning on releasing a pink DS lite. So it seems pink is quite an important color nowadays. The question for today is: Do you think a pink Wii should be available at launch?
