Thanks so much to all of you that are following us on Twitter . You guys know how much I dislike Twitter, but if it makes you happy, I’ll gladly do it! Just remember, you won’t get all of our stories on Twitter…just the juicier ones. Enjoy the Tweets, enjoy Cory’s comic, and enjoy the fact that it’s finally Friday! See you all in a few, short hours. Cory had a pretty big week this week! Proving further that he’s a fantastic artist, his work was featured over on the Cave Story WiiWare blog! If there’s any way Cory could get even closer to my heart, it would be with a Cave Story tribute. On top of that, Cory’s GoNintendo comics were featured on Drawn . Cory assured me that Drawn is one of the ‘most prestigious comic/illustration/animation sites out there’. They surely must be, if they’re featuring Cory’s work! Congrats to Cory on all of his hard work. I am constantly proud to feature the ‘bit and run’ series. That sentiment goes for today as well, as we have the 11th installment for you all to check out. I’ve done enough talking…time for the good stuff!

Oh my lord…could you imagine what would happen if this project actually came to be? SEGA and Nintendo working together on a brand-new Sonic outing. We’re not talking spin-offs or anything like that. It would be a real-deal 3d sequel to all the previous Sonic the Hedgehog games. Could Nintendo actually help SEGA to make a game that stands out far, far from the crowd? Article here

They’ve decided to bestow upon us the first, North American reveal of the Johto region for Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver! I can’t even tell you how excited I am to bring this to you guys and gals. Sure, some of you have seen this info from following the Japanese coverage a few months back, but now you get to see what it’ll be like when you pick up your copy! What exactly do we have for you? How about a map of the Johto region, a look at Team Rocket, and some artwork for the Pokeathlon! I think these are all things you’ll thoroughly enjoy. Enough yapping from me…get to the goodies below! Thanks again to our friends at Nintendo for providing us with these assets. We all truly appreciate it! · Johto Region - Your journey begins in New Bark Town, a small town that also happens to be the home of Professor Elm.

Sex is usually an awkward topic when you bring it into various forms of media. Some people still have issues with TV shows, movies, music, books and games dealing with the topic of sex. It’s a natural part of life, and it can no doubt be a story point that helps to strengthen the bond between characters…or even tear them appart in some instances. While most other medias manage to bring the topic of sex across in meaningful ways, games are still struggling. Why is it that devs can’t work this part of life into games? Article here

Why are games so terrified of sex?
Once again, my email is being flooded with notes concerning the leak of the intro video for Metroid: Other M. I will not be posting that video, nor will we point to anyone that does have it. At the event, we were asked not to take any video footage/pictures of the Metroid: Other M demo. As I stated yesterday, someone decided to ignore that rule and do as they please. Now someone else has taken it a step further by spreading a video around. I find it unfortunate that someone would take Nintendo’s offer to play, agree to their terms and then ignore them completely. Instances like these will only lead Nintendo to be even more secretive than they already are.
