Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Program

Most everyone knows about the recent price drop in the pricing for the Nintendo 3DS, but what about the people who bought a 3DS when they premiered or shortly after they came out? Well, Nintendo has started the Nintendo 3DS Ambassador Program that allows these customers to recieve FREE NES game downloads as well as future updates and news on releases before anyone else. Does it make up for those who spent the extra $100 or so just to get it when it first arrived on the market, is that good enough for being a loyal Nintendo gamer? I think it is, I would like to see the possibility of other Nintendo 3DS owners to get the oppertunity to be a part of this program and experience some perks. Check out this video of the program and some of the games and benefit those users get.

iOS and Android Over the Video Games Market

In the last years, we have seen some incredible games at the App Store from Apple and now we also have games at the Android Market from Google. But before that, we had great portable consoles such as the Nintendo DS and the Sony PSP, and currently they continue their own way.

But now with these App Stores we have access to an easier world where with just a tap we can download an incredible game right from our smartphone. So, lets check these statistics.

Mobile analytics service Flurry Analytics has launched a study on the percentage of revenue from mobile platforms in the gaming industry based on 12,000 million records captured from 80,000 applications anonymously iOS and Android. Thedata show the remarkable growth can be seen in the graph you will find on theselines and if already in 2009 the iPhone OS at that time exceeded U.S. to the PSP with 19% versus 11% of the latter, the entry of Android and the evolution of iOS in 2010 further increases the difference.

Sales of games and Android iOS U.S. have increased during 2010 to reach 8% oftotal revenues estimated at 800 million dollars, most of which are the grace, asFlurry, games for iPhone. This cake does not include data for PC games, although these are estimated at 700 million, anything that smartphone and tablets have notalready left behind.

It is clear that 15% iOS and Android have been scratched in notebooks from Sony and Nintendo in 2010 was largely due to a combination of factors, including a family of devices they always have, with uninterrupted access to a growing catalog software with a very low cost or even free supported by advertising or purchasing systems within applications.

Video Game Collection

Today I'm going to post about my video game collection. These kind of posts seem to very popular. I like video games, so I figured that I'd show my own. I currently own the Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii. My Xbox 360 collection is bigger than my my Nintendo Wii collection. I'm not going to list the games that I own because you can watch the video for that. So, please refer to the video above. Have a nice day!

Wii Sports Resort To Come With 2 Motion Plus


Wii Sports Resort is Nintendo's sequel to Wii Sports, which comes bundled with all Wii consoles. Wii Sports Resort has been a moderate hit and many people (including me) have enjoyed it, but many have not liked the fact that the only 1 Wii Motion Plus is included. The Wii Motion Plus is the hardware that connects to your Wiimote and is to make the movements more accurate. Nintendo has now included 2 Wii Motion Plus connectors in the Wii Sports Resort bundle. The bundle will be a price of $60 USD.
