Gundam 00 (the newest gundam)

A 15-second teaser trailer, which aired during Saturday's Toward the Terra broadcast in Japan, has officially announced Mobile Suit Gundam 00, the newest television series in the Gundam robotic mecha franchise. The series will air at 6:00 p.m. on Saturdays (after Toward the Terra ends in that timeslot) starting in October 2007 on MBS and TBS network affiliates. Gundam's original sponsor Sotsu and original studio Sunrise will return for this installment.

The story will take place in 2307 AD of our modern calendar system—which is different from the fictional Universal Century calendar of the first Mobile Suit Gundam series, the Cosmic Era calendar of Mobile Suit Gundam Seed, and the four other previously used calendar systems. It will be the first time a Gundam animated project officially takes place in our modern calendar system. (There were two apparent uses of AD dates in the first Mobile Suit Gundam series and Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam series, but both dates were edited out of the later movie compilations of those series.)

The main characters will be four Gundam Meister mobile weapon pilots in Solestal Being, "a private military organization bent on eradicating war." The Solestal Being intend to use Gundams to enforce its goal. The teaser trailer ends with the phrase, "Rebirth begins through destruction." Japanese fans have noted the similarity of the character designs with the work of Yun Kouga (Loveless), although Sunrise has not confirmed her involvement. Sunrise has also not confirmed the involvement of Fullmetal Alchemist director Seiji Mizushima, Hellsing video series script supervisor Yōsuke Kuroda, Eureka Seven character designer Kenichi Yoshida, or the first Gundam story's lead voice actor Tohru Furuya as the narrator.

Nintendo DS highest-selling games device in Australia in Q3; PS3 the lowest

More than 140,000 DSs sold down under between July-September; PS3 at the bottom of the sales charts. Nintendo's recent hardware dominance has seen its share price reach record highs , and it seems that Aussies haven't been immune to the House of Mario's resurgence. New figures from industry tracker GfK Australia show that Nintendo had the highest-selling portable games device (the DS) and the highest-selling next-generation console (the Wii) down under in the last three months, easily eclipsing Sony and Microsoft. The Nintendo DS was far and away the highest-selling games device in Australia between the start of July and the end of September, selling close to 140,000 units.

Bottom 10 SNES Games

April 1, 2008 - Welcome to IGN Retro's new weekly countdown of the strange, silliest, and best moments in classic gaming: Top 10 Tuesday. But don't let that "top" part lull you -- we'll point out just as much infamy on these lists as we do the good stuff. Many hardcore gamers regard the Super Nintendo as one of the best videogame systems ever. Ev-ah! To that kind of hyperbole, IGN Retro says: Pish-posh. The SNES was a great system, but it is no Colecovision. It's no Vectrex. It's no TurboGrafx-16. All systems the refuge of true hardcore gamers. That's not to say there aren't a few good games for the SNES. But no system since the Atari 2600 has hosted so much shovelware as the SNES. And it's time we called out some of the worst offenders on this system that the hardcore crowd loves to defend to the death on message boards 'round the Intertron 3000. 10) Mario Kart A s much as we love Double Dash!! around these here parts, 7.9 is far too g...
