Citing fatigue, pop star Hikaru Utada is taking 2011 off. She's not touring and not releasing any new albums. Instead, she's doing what many do when they want to relax: she's playing video games. More »

Here's the deal: We like Japanese singer Utada Hikaru (a lot). And she likes the Nintendo DS (a lot). Here's the former NDS campaign girl showing her "true, uncouth nature" and munching on her metallic pink DS Lite. Not much else to add, other than love the hat. That, and let's keep the comments clean, 'mkay? Or else. More »

So we like Japanese popstar Utada Hikaru? A lot. So what? She likes Tetris (a lot), which means one thing: Absolutely nothing. Regardless, Nintendo has posted the video of her recent 30 person battle. Watch as Hikky is defeated by grown-ups! Watch as she finally kicks the crap out of children! Yes, she beat children!!

She came, she saw, she gamed. Japanese pop mega star Utada Hikaru took on challengers at a Club Nintendo sponsored Tetris DS event. Said Hikky, "I first played when I was five years-old and every day since then." She's racked up a whopping 99,999,999 on the game's current DS incarnation to prove it. Nutshell: She's a big Tetris nerd and even wore glasses during the tourney, because, says Hikky, "It is serious." Thirty contestants were pitted against the singer, one-by-one, and there was six minute time limit for each battle. The first challenger defeated the singer in 56 seconds. Likewise, Utada is defeated by a female challenger in the second round. Next contest was a small child, who Utada schooled and slaughtered. Her final tally? 26 wins and 4 defeats. Impressive. That's the thing about Japan, there's always someone's who is a bigger geek than you. Brian Ashcraft More »

Previously, we posted that Japanese pop princess Utada Hikaru was damn good at Tetris. We were wrong. Hikki is a Tetris freak. She's posted her DS Tetris record score, which clocks in at a whopping 99,999,999. And that was after 16 or 17 hours of play—the same length of time it takes to finish an RPG. She writes: More »
