America Online interested in video game consoles? Looks like it. Here's what we know.

So, AOL wants to be the ISP for a Next-gen console? Let's hope that Nintendo will stay away! That is, unless you want slow connections and busy signals. Fastest Gaming News has the goods.

An artist from Famitsu has drawn up a conception sketch of the Game Boy Advance. Check it out!

If you haven't seen it yet, IGN Pocket put up an artist's from Famitsu's conception of the GBA, and it is one crazy looking hand held. Complete with a camera and microphone on top, the things looks really cool, but not very practical. When I showed this picture to my friend, he said the GBA is going to be the most fun he's ever had playing with himself. At which point I laughed at him and called him a liar.

Many are doubting Nintendo right now. Just how grim is the company's situation right now?

Not only is Nintendo losing money right now, but even Next Generation is saying the Dolphin will be delayed. You know I'd like to keep hope alive, but....well I'm still keeping hope alive. It would be nice to get some good news. How 'bout a bit more on the specs front Nintendo. Damn that soapbox for creeping up on me again. ;)

What? Billy sell out? No way!! Well, maybe...

Yes, yes I did. Well not completely. People have been asking me if I'm going to affiliate with IGN or something along those lines. (nothing against IGN of course) Well, as of right now I don't think I want to go that way. There was another site I know of that stayed independent that did really... Read more...

Believe it or not, the Nintendo 64 is three years old today!

Well maybe you were one of the many who got their N64 on the 26th! Can you believe the N64 is 3 years old? Crazy man....crazy. So take you N64 out to Dinner and buy it a few drinks. It deserves it.

Some interesting information on S3 graphics compression, which will be used for the Dolphin.

Special thanks to Gary Moore for the story. The fine folks over at Gaming Age got the goods about Nintendo working with S3 on graphics compression. Check it.

Nintendo and S3 Incorporated today announced a partnership to employ S3's industry-leading graphics technology on Nintendo's next home video game console, code-named 'Dolphin.'
