No word on what tweaks the browser is going to get for its 3DS version, but I guess we'll find out when that update hits in May. No word on why Nintendo moved away from Opera either.

3DS NEWS - Here's why you'll want to print out your own AR cards

You're going to be able to print out your own AR Cards if you loose the ones that come with the 3DS system. This is what happens when you make larger cards. I have a feeling there is going to be some interesting photos pop up when this thing finally comes out.

3DS NEWS - 3DS out and about, resting your eyes, initial shipments and worried parents?

Here are some various 3DS tidbits for you guys...
Did you know that some retailers in Hong Kong are already selling the 3DS? It's been out there for a couple days now, and it looks like there was some skimming of retail units meant for Japan. Currently, the system is selling for HKD$3400 (USD$436).
-----
Nintendo is now saying that gamers should take a break every 15 minutes if they're viewing 3D on the 3DS. Capcom has also implemented a message in Super Street Fighter IV 3D Edition that states "A ten minute break is recommended every 30 minutes." I don't think many people followed the Wii suggestions, and I'm guessing the same thing here.
-----
In one classroom of 35 7-year-olds, there is only one child that is getting a 3DS on launch day. It seems that the other children aren't getting them because their parents are worried about arguments between younger siblings that shouldn't be viewing the 3D. On top of that, they're also worried about the 'hassle' of Nintendo's 15 minute break suggestions. Is this a small indicator of trouble that rests ahead for Nintendo?
-----
Finally, some retailers in Japan are still keeping quiet on how many 3DS units they're going to get. When called and asked, most shop employees said that the numbers are still up in the air, and they aren't quite sure what they'll receive. You and I know that's bull, but it looks like retailers are trying to keep things quiet when it comes to initial shipments.

NEWS - Gem Smashers heading to 3DS, not DS

It looks like GameFly had their listing partially right and partially wrong. Developer Frame Studios has confirmed that Gem Smashers is indeed heading to Wii, but the DS listing was a mistake. The truth is, the title is actually heading to the 3DS instead. No word on when these games are going to launch, but it's always good to see more 3DS support as the weeks roll on.

NEWS - School buying 28 Wiis to raise activity levels during Winter

“They think it’s a good idea to give the kids something to do. Winter is so long, and they can be inside for so long. What it does is get them up around and moving. It’s not video games, and you have board games, but you can lose pieces. You can buy more, but mainly it’s the interaction of the kids and that they are up and moving.” - Susan Harrison, school board president
Thanks to GoNintendo

----------
I'm sure Daemion would love for his school to get a bunch of Wii's to play with during the winter.
We've actually been thinking about asking his teacher if we could bring in our Wii on a special activity day, but we need to grab a few more controllers first. We only have two of each wiimote/nunchuk/classicpro controllers and one wavebird. I'd hate for the little guys to miss out on some good 4-player action while playing. Hopefully i'll have the extra controllers before the end of the school year. 
Wouldn't that be a great way to end the year?
