Go Nintendo posted: Man, I was going along just fine…and then my internet died! I was busy typing up an ‘EoD’ thought on my iPhone, and just as I finished it, the net came back. Quite a frustrating way to end the night, but at least all ended well! You guys enjoy the rest of your night/morning, and I’ll catch you in a few, short hours. This week brought a pretty interesting bit of information pertaining to Netflix. We know that the Wii is finally going to see the service made available, and plenty of people are excited about that. It may be the last console to g...

Go Nintendo posted: Did you know that Logorama took home an Oscar for best animated short? We actually featured Logorama on the site, as it included a few nods to game industry developers/publishers. Now the creators of Logorama, Francois Alaux and Herve de Crecy, have signed on to put together a 20 minute short for the Ghost Recon series, which will promote Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. This particular short is going to serve as a prequel to the game, and it’s costing Ubisoft upwards of $10 million. I guess Oscar winners don’t come cheap! Link Go to Source ...

Go Nintendo posted: “THQ went through a lot of pain and restructuring - they took a lot of bullets so we could continue to make our game, and that’s a good indication of their faith in us, and their drive to make great-quality products.” - David Adams, Vigil Games THQ seems to be doing a lot of things right lately, and their business is heading in a good direction.

A portion of a Game Informer interview with Konami producer Tomm Hulett and Climax game director Mark Simmons…

GI: Can you talk about the decisions that led to the nightmare world getting a complete overhaul, from its former “blood and rust” look to its current “sterile ice” presentation?

Simmons: There isn’t much that exists in Shattered Memories that doesn’t have a story telling reason for being there. The ice and snow form a key part of the narrative language within the game and once you’ve played through the game and have considered the story you’ll understand why it forms a natural backdrop to the nightmare world. It also gave us plenty of opportunities to push the hardware of the platforms with some amazing rendering effects, refractive ice, some amazing snow effects, solid ice that shimmers in the flashlight beam, and advanced lighting that accurately reproduces the light and shadow from the snow and ice. We also felt strongly that the extreme cold and ice would support a strong sense of isolation and lack of life to create an atmosphere where you’d feel really on your own in an oppressive world adding to the terror of the nightmare experience.

SEGA needs to find a way to get Moonwalker onto the Virtual Console and Virtual Console Arcade. It would be a great way to show appreciation for Mr. Jackson’s contributions to the gaming world. All the revenue from the downloads could go to help out his children, which I think would be a fitting contribution.
