Neo Slim 3000 handheld promises game emulation and more {Engadget}
Nov 11th 2009 5:31PM While emulation can be done & the emulators themselves are legal .
unless you the Pandora can read Playstation CD'S or N64 cartrides directly it means you are running pirated software .
Many countrys it is illegal to make copy's of software without permission .
While many of you may say you can legally make backups but those law are ancient history & in many countrys haved been changed & the only sofware where you can make backups are PC software as part of the EULA attached to it & it usally applys to backups to files installed to the harddrive .
So in the long run emulation of these software tend to be illegal wether its on a PC this PSP KIRF the Pandoria the Dingoo A380 or any other means is basically illegal .
The only real legal emulation is the Wii's Virtual Console service .
Nintendo DSi XL coming to America in Q1 2010 {Engadget}
Oct 30th 2009 1:28AM Well there's 2 things wrong with your comment.
1. The DSi have updatable firmware.
2. Even the Lite/Phat sevral firmware revisions to stop these piratecarts.
I wouldent be suprised that my Phat old Lite & New Lite each have a different firmware version.
Keepin' it real fake, part CCXXXVII: PXP-2000 aspires to little more than playing NES games, a host of video formats {Engadget}

Australian attorney general refuses to support 18+ game rating {Joystiq}
Oct 1st 2009 8:22AM Well there are one thing to add to it Videogames are interactive.
Unlike a movie where you just watching some guy chainsawing heads of people but in the videogame [b]yo[/b]u chainsaw the heads of everyone.
I agree with in that some game content must be controlled but not by refusuing R18+ ratings but by baning games that have the negative psychologial effects so nobody in Australia can play games like Grand Theft Auto.

Wii System Update 4.2 now live {Joystiq}
Sep 29th 2009 9:15AM I guess they don't care about Virtual Console & WiiWare as well as I Expect the Shop channel Request that you update if you want to log in.
I don't really care about the homebrew especally as it leads to people running pirate games of a harddrive.
Anyway I proudly updated my Wii to 4.2 & ishall expect the email itself to arrive tomorrow like usall.
Griffin's volume-limiting MyPhones can't crank to 11... or 8 {Engadget}
Sep 20th 2009 6:41PM With the iPod video & iPod touch have they both have volume limiters with passcode .
Downside with touch is that smart kids will set up passcode lock for the whole iPod with auto-format after 3 failed attempts hoping there absent minded parents will forget to set it back up again after restoring the iPod .
Put your Fear Factor GBA cartridge to good use (turn it into a thumb drive!) {Joystiq Nintendo}

Blaze Nintendo DSi game selector improves cart management, uglies up your handheld {Engadget}
Sep 16th 2009 6:44PM Its called highy illegal piracy & you should not do it .
btw .
Pyshacal games should stills exist for smaller games that doesnt exceed 256MB .
Its one reason i find the PSPGo a joke .
An average game download apparently 512MB for many people including myself thats is not really practical with slow internet connection .
Take my connection for example its basically the slowest broadband possible plus theres only a 6GB monthly limit before the speed cut down to near dialup speed (which isnt fun when reached).
So a 512MB game not only take forever its also takes up a fair bit of the monthly bandwith allowance .
While i believe that digital distrubution is the future but currently at the moment is still far from replacing retail games .
