Look at what we did to our Wii



What do you guys think? Got the Sticker and the Wii Light Kit off Ebay. The sticker was $6.00 and the Kit was $5.50. It wasn't that hard to install either. It's called a DVD Gate and it's made by Talismoon. The kit comes in Red or Green. It was pretty easy to install, but the little standard phillips screwdriver that came with it was barely too big. So if you plan on ordering one to install on your wii, keep in mind that you will need to get a very small phillips screwdriver if you don't have one already. Plus, the black soft material(Disk Protector) in the kit is a little rough, so use the original one that came with your system.. You wouldn't want to possibly scratch your disk because the material is too rough. I found this out the hard way and had to redo everything.. Its real easy to take off the new one and put the old one on. Other than that, its a nice and easy way to customize your wii... and best of all, it doesn't void your warranty. You never have to open up the inside of the console, just the front.
This will be the last post for the night.. So, Goodnight everyone!

Add our Wii code!

Wanna add us as a friend on your Wii? Every time we get a new(or older) game with WiFi we will message all our friends to see if they have that game and want to exchange game codes. That way you could end up playing against Daemion in an online match, and it might be recorded and posted on the blog! All you have to do is add our Wii code to your system, then leave a comment here with your name and code, or you can just email the code to:
mylittlegamerblog.gmail.com
We will add you ASAP!

We hope to play some of you guys online one day!

Here's our code: 5404-5749-2906-6782

Here's a list of our Online Enabled Games:

Disc:
Mario Kart Wii (E)
ExciteBots: Trick Racing (E)

WiiWare:
ExciteBike: World Rally (E)
SnowBoard Riot (E)
Tetris Party (E)
Pool Revolution (E)
Silver Star Chess (E)
My Aquarium (E) *Exchange Aquariums
Overturn (E 10+)
Water Warfare (E 10+)

Dad's Games:
Onslaught
Goldeneye 007

I'm sure some of you may have noticed that there is a couple E 10+ games here in the list. We actually do let Daemion play them from time to time. I checked the games before buying them, and there isn't anything in them that he hasn't seen on Daytime TV or talked about with his friends. So please don't think that we'll let him play just any game no matter what the rating is. As a parent, it's ultimately up to you to judge what is good or bad for your children to play. We also make sure to be there with him the entire time he is playing these games.
I'm a real big FPS fan, and Daemion has walked in on me playing them a few times, not to mention hearing me talk about how much I love them. I used to tell him that one day he'd be able to share my joy of those types of games. Then, when Water Warfare(FPS using Squirt Guns) came out, I instantly checked out some gameplay videos and then made the decision that it would be ok for him to play it. As for Overturn(Fighting Robots), Daemion loves anything that has to do with robots, and I was wanting the game for myself too. So after playing it for a while I decided that it too would be ok for him to play. He actually doesn't really like the game because of the difficulty and controls. It can take some getting used to.

This is an action-platformer in which players assume the role of a small chef who must assemble giant hamburgers. Players must avoid 'cartoony' hazards (e.g., grill flames, spikes traps) and oversized enemies (e.g., carrots, apple cores, hot peppers) in each level.

3DS NEWS - Standby mode battery life last "for a day"


We’ve known about 3DS’s battery life while playing games for quite some while now, but what about the system’s battery life when the lid is closed, that is, when it is on standby?
Big gaming website CVG have reviewed the 3DS this weekend – and have mentioned in their review the following about battery life on standby:
“In sleep mode the 3DS’s juice lasted for a day comfortably.”
How long is “a day” for the 3DS battery’s 1,300 mAh of charge?
We’d say at the best estimate it’s 24 hours and at the worst we’d be talking about the battery life for a normal day’s use – that is, using a 3DS like a smartphone or tablet and not switching it off, instead closing the lid after we’ve switched it on for the day or after a quick bit of gaming and walking about with the thing using StreetPass and communicating with other 3DSes.

NEWS - No Wii Successor Yet, Says Iwata

Company will consider successor once developers have run out of ideas.

3DS is all the rage in Japan right now. Meanwhile, the Wii is consistently in second place in console sales over there.

Time for a Nintendo console reboot with a successor to the Wii? Japan's Yomiuri Shimbun newspaper asked this very question of Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata.

Replied Iwata: "It's just four years since release. It's selling over 7 million units a year in North America, so we don't think it's at the limit. We'll make decisions about a successor system at the time when software developers cannot offer surprises (on the Wii)."

The possibility of a Wii successor has been one of the constant questions Iwata has had to address at Nintendo's quarterly earnings meetings and whenever being interviewed by business press like the Yomiuri. His response tends to be similar to the above.

In Japan, Nintendo recently announced a few major new Wii titles, including Tower of Pandora, Rhyhtm Heaven and Kirby. The latter two had been previously announced but are now on track for release this year. Pandora will arrive even sooner -- this Spring.

But Wii will probably need more than just three titles to survive for the coming year. We'll hopefully get some hints at the system's lineup at Iwata's Game Developers Conference keynote address later this week. You'll apparently be able to watch the keynote live, according to Nintendo of America's twitter.

Thanks to IGN!

I'm thinking sometime around Christmas 2012 we might see the next Nintendo console, but who knows, it might be longer than that!
