Goron

Wednesday, July 11th, 2007

Possibly the most in-your-face depiction of a video game character - a Goron from the tribe which live on and in Death Mountain. The Gorons are present in the three dimensional Legend of Zelda games, with this specific Goron model being from the latest game, ‘The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess’. Made by one of [...]

Super Mario Bros. Z

Saturday, June 9th, 2007

Super Mario Bros. Z is a great Mario series (including more recent appearances from Sonic and crew) using original Nintendo and Sega sprites. It’s good fun, and a lot more action-packed than the original Mario…

Current Console Setup

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007

This is my current game console setup, including my recent two purchases, the Wii and projector. In addition, you’ll notice the amazing relic from my childhood, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (or SNES, for short). At the moment, I have my Wii fully rigged up to the projector to produce a huge display on the [...]

Sunday, April 1st, 2007

New from ThinkGeek.com is the WiiHelm, an amazing, fantastic, almost too good to believe attachment for your Nintendo Wii video console. Below is the truly superb video.

The WiiBot

Sunday, February 4th, 2007

The WiiBot - a “sword-wielding, tennis-playing, WiiMote-controlled, friendly robot” and an amazing geek project. The web page about this project contains more information about how the project was made, the software that controlled it and the industrial robot that was used.

I need a Wii

Tuesday, November 21st, 2006

Unless you’ve been living under a rock for most of your life, you should realise I’m not referring to my bladder needs.
So, I am staying up until 9 o’clock tomorrow to ensure that I am one of the first to pre-order the Nintendo’s new game console from Amazon.co.uk. During this time Amazon’s webpage will be [...]

Destiny revokes my sleep permit

Friday, November 17th, 2006

I can not sleep. At all. By some evil turn of fate, it has been decided that I can not have one good night’s sleep at all this week. Tonight, therefore I’ve given up.
I should be more tired really - I spent a good hour or so ripping apart Martin’s computer to try to diagnose [...]

E3 - Nintendo and Microsoft

Wednesday, May 10th, 2006

I watched the E3 press conferences yesterday on GameSpot. All except Sony’s which I have yet to watch.
Nintendo’s E3 press conference was reveling more about the Nintendo Wii (the new name for the Revolution). Still they have released no hardware specification, and still they are focusing more on the gameplay and the enjoyment of playing [...]

Exam Status: 1 Down, 2 To Go

Wednesday, May 3rd, 2006

C programming exam today - done and left early. It seemed to be quite easy overall. Only a few questions I had some difficulty with, which is good considering the terrible sleep (or more so, lack of sleep) I had last night.
I made a stupid mistake on a question relating to data trees. At the [...]
