Nintendo launches tablet designed for video games. Apple trembles!

Touch me, i'm dick.

So Nintendo just announced its new Wii console, the Wii U, which has all the bells and whistles we expected, like full HD video output and heftier specs for more technologically advanced games. It’s also compatible with previous games and controllers.

But the real twist is its new controller!

It looks like a simple console controller with a touchscreen, but it’s so much more…

You can actually play the games without a TV and it has motion sensors, augmented reality (apparently), video-chat, web browsing and all the goodies you came to expect from the likes of Nintendo DSi.

I love the way Nintendo always pushes the creativity envelope to come up with new approaches to old standards, and relevant products and features.

You just gotta hand it to them: they’re good!

I just question a couple of things: the hefty size of the controller (and weight), and how much money will it cost.

Check out the glamorous showcase of the Wii U’s main features. It will rock your socks off!

Does your music suck? Just ask some kids!

Genius idea and publicity stunt. The band Broken Bells gathered a children focus group to comment on they’re new record. So cute.

Tablet War: Enter the Sony Dragon

S1 and S2: One resembles the iPad, the other a burrito. Ok, a Nintendo DS, jeeezzz...

Sony sharpens it’s teeth and it’s designers, joins forces with Google (Android) and enters the Tablet War.

This could actually be a good idea, as Sony owns a lot of stuff it can use in a cross media logic: some of the best video games (Playstation running on Android), movies and bands.

You can check out all the nerdy specs here.

Looks like a small PS3, but it really is just a burrito... tablet i mean!

It’s no secret: Google’s Android may be stealing the numbers, but Apple’s iPad awesome and elegant experience is still light years ahead of it’s competitors.

I recently bought an iPad (the most basic 1st generation one) – even though i said i wouldn’t – mainly for professional business. I make digital magazines and they’re all, mostly exclusively, on the iPad.

I am continually being blown away by the iPad. I could say it’s because of it’s elegant full functioning ecosystem, but that would be undermining. You just have to use it on a daily basis to understand it’s value, and the value of tablets in general, as a new working and entertaining tool.

Still, it’s important not to forget that whoever has the greater amount of good apps has the better advantage, just like in video games, where a console’s success is greatly defined by the quantity and quality of it’s games. And the iPad has all the greatest Apps.

What do you figure is the main reason for almost every tablet manufacturer going Android? yep, you guessed it, second best app store…

The 9/11 Inappropriate List

It’s usually in it’s darkest moments that mankind brings out it’s worst.

This list is on of those moments…

I believe that the people who compiled this list are utterly sadistic. How else could one explain the irony of songs like “Safe in New York City”, by AC/DC, or “Ironic”, by Alanis Morissette… is it because the US was attacked by the very terrorists they once trained?

the bad taste of including “Jump”, and even worst: “Learn to fly” (double pun here for jumpers and planes).

Why would someone include love songs like “Crash in To Me” (Dave Matthews Band) or “Falling for the First Time” (Barenaked Ladies)? Are they mad?

Well, they included “Walk Like an Egyptian”, so i’d say there’s your answer right there…

Alas, you know there’s pure evil at work here when you see “Say Hello to Heaven” on the list… that’s just wrong.

I can’t think of anything more inappropriate to do at the time of this catastrophe than the making of this Inappropriate List.
