Unlike the DSi XL, the 3DS will Let You Import Your Digital Game Library

Remember how Nintendo screwed everyone with a DSi over who either bought a new DSi or moved over to the DSi XL? No. Let me refresh your memory. Turns out that all of those digital games you purchased were tied not to your bank account, or the hard earned money you spent to get the…

There Is A Pokemon Typing Game

Next year, get ready to clack on a keyboard! Pokemon is ready to have players battle it out with their typing skills. Dubbed “Battle & Get: Pokemon Typing DS”, the game is a typing-based battle game. This makes sense as many children in Japan learn to read with Pokemon. Why not learn to type? The…

Love Simulator Coming To Nintendo 3DS

Love Plus, the love sim that has launched cake lines and vacation tours, is coming to the Nintendo 3DS. That’s right, a Love Plus is going 3D. In late 2009, a man even “married” his Love Plus squeeze. Love Plus on the Nintendo 3DS could end badly — or at least with heavy screen licking.…
