Game webpages under construction

Hi,

Sorry that I haven't update the website in a while, the GCSE's have really been taking over my time. Unfortunately, the next 2 years are going to be pretty much like this as I only just started year 10 but I'll try to update as much as I can (like at Starbucks on Tuesdays :D) As you can see I have changed the site back from the Halloween version. I have also finished completing the Zelda homepage and part of the Spirit Tracks homepage, you can go to them by higlighting Nintendo and clicking The Legend of Zelda. Spirit Tracks is the only game webpage that I have publishedalong with the Videos and Items page. Also check out our brand new, hassle free comment system on most pages.

Make Mii Spooky!

Hi,

Most people would know that the time for ghosts and ghouls is near. Since I am one of those people, I have decided to change the color scheme and logo of the whole website, including our NEW Twitter profile, to fit the theme of Halloween. I will also be Broadcasting the first episode of Make Mii Famous Plus on the 31st October 2009. The one before wasn't really planned well but this time it should be planned better. In other news, I have now added links to our affilates and Social Networking sites we're on in the sidebar, Wii Fit Plus is scheduled for release on the 30th October 2009 for only £20 without the Wii Balance Board and the Wii Fit Plus Trailer has been added to the Video Vault.

Thanks

We're Back Baby!

Hi,

About two weeks ago we were hacked once again but me and Starky have been busy fixing the website and forum. Now I am happy to announce the release of Make Mii Famous - 3rd Generation. This version of the website should be much easier to navigate around and it shouldn't really have any bugs (well Dreamweaver seemed to like what I was doing). There are also some features that I'll be adding to the website, like a Calendar, a Search Bar and more. Some of the pages may seem a bit unusual but if you contact us what page needs fixing then it should be sorted out soon after. The forum is still being fixed but I hope that it goes online again soon.
Well, that's all for now.

Thanks

Celebrating 120 years of Nintendo!

Celebrating 120 years of Nintendo! Forum Post

Hi,

I may sound a bit stupid say that Nintendo has existed for 120, but recently I did a bit of research and I found out Nintendo was actually founded in Kyoto, Japan on September 23rd 1889 by Fusajiro Yamauchi to produce homemade Hanafuda cards. By 1963, Nintendo had tried several small niche businesses, such as a cab company and a love hotel. Eventually, Nintendo developed into a video game company, becoming one of the most influential in the industry and Japan's third most valuable listed company, with a market value of over US$85 billion. Besides video games, Nintendo is also the majority owner of the Seattle Mariners, a Major League Baseball team in Seattle, Washington. According to Nintendo's Touch! Generations website, the name "Nintendo" translated from Japanese to English means "Leave luck to Heaven". As of October 2, 2008, Nintendo has sold over 470 million hardware units and 2.7 billion software units.

In other news, the Nintendo of Europe website has released a 'Metroid Prime Trilogy' Web page for the release of the game on the 4th September 2009, click here to see the web page and for the first 23 hours of the Forum's Grand Re-Opening 4 members have already registered, be sure to tell your friends to register too and remember, the 15th registered user become a Global Moderator.

Complete without a Sight

Hi,

There are many ways to challenge yourself in a Zelda game – the three hearts challenge, always wearing iron boots, using the worst swords, and so on, and I’m sure we’ve all tried at least one of them, done it, and considered ourselves masters of Zelda.

But those are just minor challenges, not even worthy of consideration next to the big one: completing a Zelda blindfolded. Or, in this case, just blind. Which is why I was utterly astounded to find out about Jordan, born blind, and yet still managing to complete Ocarina of Time.



“My name is Jordan and I have been blind since birth. I have always been a fan of Ocarina of Time, and here I will show videos of me playing through it (and other games such as Castlevania, pokemon and possibly other Zelda’s) to the best of my abilities. To navigate on my Computer I use a program called JAWS. It reads the words to me and allows me to navigate my pc with ease…To type I’ve memorized the keys. Just so you know, I have done all of these bosses MANY times.”

And for those of you who want to help, he’s looking for directions to some of the later parts of Ocarina of Time. If you think you know the game like the back of your hand, why not have a look?

DSi Facebook in deatail

Starting today, you can upload photos directly from your Nintendo DSi to Facebook using Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, making everyone’s favourite handheld console an even better way to share the fun with friends and family.

The Facebook integration with the Nintendo DSi Camera is one feature of a new system update for the Nintendo DSi, which also includes other improvements to the technical features of the console. This update is accessed by performing a system update in the System Settings of the Nintendo DSi, which will automatically upgrade the console’s firmware to version 1.4.

The exciting new Facebook integration with the Nintendo DSi Camera allows you to send photos directly to your Facebook stream, where they will be shared with friends and stored in an Album on your profile. A Facebook logo will then appear in the album section of the camera, and a Facebook icon will now be present above your picture. Tap this to immediately connect online to your Facebook account and upload your picture.

The first time the new Facebook integration is used, you will need to log into your Facebook account using Facebook Connect, after which your email can be saved to the Nintendo DSi for ease of uploading images. The new Facebook functionality of the Nintendo DSi provides a safe and secure experience, and your password will never be revealed. Users can also always update their privacy settings on Facebook.com.

You can upload up to 200 photos in one album which is automatically named “Photos from Nintendo DSi” for your convenience – but there’s no need to stop there! When the 201st photo is uploaded to Facebook, a new album will simply be created.

Every single image from your Camera Album can be uploaded to Facebook. The fun image-altering tools available on the Nintendo DSi mean you can now play with them to your heart’s content before uploading them immediately to Facebook to share with friends. With eleven different lenses available on the Nintendo DSi Camera, you’ll never have had so much fun with your pictures!

Connect to the Internet via Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection today, and take your photo sharing to a new level with Facebook on Nintendo DSi.
