    British mag NGamer put together a clever 2010 "year in review" of mainstream news using WarioWare DIY. Some of the referenced incidents may be obvious internationally, while others are quite UK specific, so we made a list of the minigames and what they represent. Actor Mel Gibson's colorful exchange with his ex [NSFW]. "Car Splatter" -- Britain's Prince Charles and Camilla's car attacked by student protesters over tuition fee hike. "Unmask" -- Top Gear driver revealed. "Flush it" -- Politician reneges on UK tuition hike promise. "Engage" -- Prince William of England proposes to girlfriend. "Cap the Leak" -- BP oil spill. "Rescue" -- Chilean miners "Goal Get" -- Controversial goal. "Here Kitty" -- Cat bin lady. FIFA decision to go with Russia over England for World Cup 2018. Check out the full DIY video after the break.

    The latest issue of NGamer magazine has a preview of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brawler that was originally revealed last month.It's officially titled TMNT: Smash Up (surely a blatant attempt to evoke memories of a certain other brawler), will feature arenas that change throughout scraps (so you'll change locations as you fight, as happened in Power Stone 2), and will see players defeating their opponents by either knocking them off the stage (à la -- oh! -- Super Smash Bros.) or emptying their health meter entirely, which can be refilled with pizza, natch.There will be no motion-controlled attacks (though waggle isn't ruled out for other aspects, and there will be context-sensitive moves), and what is described as a "dark, gritty" graphical style. Turtles co-creator Peter Laird is penning the single-player story, but what we really want to know is the character roster; currently, only the Turtles and Splinter are confirmed. We're calling shotgun on Krang.
