Who wants some two-second mini-games?

The latest issue of Japanese magazine Nintendo Dream contains shocking new information on one of Nintendo's newest GBA titles, Made in Wario (the North American version is called Wario Ware, Inc., Mega Microgame$). Previously it was known that the game would be a collection of mini-games, but we didn't know what they would involve or what kind of structure tied them all together.

Sonic! He can really move! Sonic! He’s got an attitude!

Sonic Team has posted a new web site concerning an upcoming Animated series entitled

A sequel to the fabulous Golden Sun is on its way, and you can move your characters to the new game. Hope you kept your cart!

It seems like it's taking forever, and some of you have probably forgotten that a sequel to Golden Sun is coming. Here's the beef on what you'll need to do to transfer your characters.
