Layton is great.
Talk about a game that will kick your ass. I wasted twenty minutes on the birth-rate-of-a-mouse puzzle before I got the non-mathematical answer. Nintendo set up a bangin' Layton website, which does a great job of presenting the game's unique art style and trancelike music.
Although, they're not smart enough to make their Professor Layton Desktop Clock application a Mac widget. Come on guys... you know what I don't need? A clock as an app.
I'm a professional spectator.
As I predicted, the Smash Bros spectator mode is super amazing great. I'll watch for hours, betting on my favorites. I never bet more than 4 coins though; I'm a cheapskate. Generally, I try to only bet on team matches (since that starts you at 50/50 odds)... and I always favor characters like Ness/Lucas, Ganondorf, and Ike/Marth. The way I see it, if you're playing guys like that, you're probably good at them. If a Bonus Chance pops up, I always bet, since you can win trophies, big sticker payouts (my record is 12 or so), and triple coins.
Wouldn't it be incredible if Nintendo offered Smash Spectator Mode as a system-level downloadable Channel, even for people who didn't buy the full game? What better way to advertise it, not that it needs it. Personally, I'd adore the convenience of being able to SPECTATE! without booting a disk or leaving the Wii menu.
DC starting a new secondary Justice League team.
As Scipio rather hilariously points out, we've been through this before. But I like the key players on this new League so much (GL Hal Jordan, Green Arrow, Former Atom Ray Palmer), that I'm in all the way.
I bet Batman really hates this idea.
Guitar Hero coming to DS with funky attachment.
"A" for effort, but I'm worried about how you're expected to hold this. It seems like your left hand will end up jerking the DS around as you hit the frets while your right tries to use the touchscreen. Could end up like Metroid Hunters or any of those DS games that expect too much from your hands. Neat guitaresque implementation though. I'll need to see a songlist, because it will likely only have 15 to 20 tracks... which could totally kill it if they all suck.
