After a conversation with a friend over the phone a few days go about how the only thing worth checking into for the Wii this season is Tatsunoko vs Capcom I decided to get the game and since I do not have a Japanese Wii I had to hack it to get it to run. I had not turned on my Wii in months and the thought of bricking it honestly did not concern me that much especially considering the shiny PS3 and Xbox 360 sitting right next to it.

After installing the Homebrew channel i was wowed at how detailed and efficient the homebrew software works. I was also surprised to find out that there are evil homebrew apps out there that can play burned backup wii games on DVD-R discs with this hack installed. I don't think this will be a problem for Nintendo because its not something that's super easy to do especially after the last few Wii Menu updates.

In any case here are some pics of the hack and homebrew channel. Read the rest of this entry »

One very cool thing about this new Premium Level Pack is that those that do not have it can join the game of someone who does have it. The level pack will be released on December 23rd. In addition to 12 new Trophies to unlock the level pack also includes the following:

* 1 new background music track
* 3 new interactive music tracks
* 1 new Metal Gear Solid themed ‘sound object’
* New Plasma Ball ‘danger element’
* New Laser Sight ‘gadget’
* New functioning Searchlight lamp – for those special ‘exclamation mark’ moments
* THE PAINTINATOR (and Paint Switch)

Here are 30 newly released and officially sanctioned screens from Street Fighter IV.

Not too shabby. This Resident Evil 5 box art is official and straight from the good folks at Capcom. The Xbox 360 version is pretty much the same.
