Konno is the Mario Kart expert around Nintendo, having been a major part of all the Kart games, producing the SNES and N64 games, and supervising the GBA game. With Mario Kart DS coming out in a few months, Nintendo of Europe decided to ask him a thing or two about the game.

A new model of the media player will replace the old one for the new Game Boy hardware.

The Play-Yan Media Player for the Game Boy Advance has been around in Japan since February, and has had some success there. The device turns the mild-mannered GBA SP into an MP3 and video player, using files stored on SD memory cards, which are inserted into the Play-Yan unit.

With the upcoming... Read more...

Lik-Sang and PGC are giving away a copy of the hot new import game, Jump Super Stars!

HAL Laboratory and Nintendo have finally released Jump Super Stars in Japan, and to celebrate we are giving away a copy of this

highly anticipated Nintendo DS game.

Planet GameCube's resident fighter guru has given Jump Super Stars his high praise, and many have called this game the Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo DS. With a little skill (and luck!) this status symbol game could be yours!

A cable adaptor, an exclusive link cable, and a special wireless adaptor.

Nintendo of Japan has updated their GB Micro page with information about the link cable accessories for the new Game Boy model.

Because of the dramatically smaller size of the Micro, a new port was included on the top of the unit. This means that all previous link cables and charger units from the Game Boy Advance era will not work with the GB Micro without a special adaptor.

The agreement gives Konami the exclusive rights to the Marvel Trading Card Game.

Twilight Princess will not be under the tree this Christmas.

Nintendo of America has sent a notice to analysts and the media that The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess has been delayed to at least April 2006. Eiji Aonuma's development team apparently wants extra time to polish off the game, and they're getting it.

"After much discussion, the Zelda development... Read more...

Online Zelda multiplayer? YES.

We here at PGC are always giddy when we see fan projects that take old games and turn them into something new. (The now-defunct Chrono Trigger: Resurrection comes to mind.) Additionally, we are somewhat disappointed that Nintendo's lack of commitment to online for the GameCube turned us to the PS2 or Xbox for our online cravings.

Also, I saw an almost naked girl!

Planet GameCube received a review copy of Geist today, and I jumped right into playing it. I must say I'm enjoying it so far.

Anyway, at one point I was possessing a shower head and totally saw a hot naked girl showering, although her naughty bits were tastefully covered by bubbles. After I was finished with her I ended up possessing another different hot girl and was walking around the womens' locker room peeking in various lockers.

George, Lizzie and Ralph are coming to the GameCube for a remake of the classic. And it's cheap, too!

If you participate in the test, you'll get a neat little bonus from Nintendo.

Nintendo has been pretty quiet about how their upcoming Nintendo Wi-fi Connection service will work. Aside from reports about a special PC USB adaptor to make the transition to wireless, not much else is known about it. While Nintendo hasn't announced anything new about the service, they are asking for the public's help to make sure it hits the airwaves in tip-top shape.

Square-Enix looks to reach more gamers.

According to Japanese news site, Mainichi Interactive, Sony's hold on both the Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest series is about to come to an end in the next generation. Despite Sony's enormous lead in market share the past two generations (which both series are partly responsible for), Square-Enix president Yoichi Wada thinks that it's time to reach out to more consumers.

Look what the stork dropped off: a sequel to Feel the Magic!

Sega and Sonic Team are finally showing off their insane sequel to the similarly crazy (and very successful) DS launch title, Feel the Magic (or Project Rub, for our European readers). The sequel's nonsensical title roughly translates to "Where Do Babies Come From?", but the game looks to be a very direct follow-up to its predecessor.

When the battery runs low, plug in to play and charge.
