The following tale of alien encounters is true. And by true, I mean false. It's all lies. But they're entertaining lies. And in the end, isn't that the real truth? The answer is: No. -- Leonard Nimoy, The Simpsons


The Daily ‘Shroom – 5/25/07

Geeze, did I piss someone off? It’s like the number of visitors as of late have been cut in half. So I figure I either angered some people too much or not enough.

Oh well, on with the news.

  1. The Smash Bros. Dojo just updated, with their newest old new character, the angelic warrior Pit!
  2. TransForm your world, with the power of The Allspark! Hoo-yah!

    No, I don’t know why I said that, either.

    Good news for us Canucks.

    Let me rephrase that, good news for Canucks who aren’t as financially restricted as I am: Canadian Toys R Us stores are carrying Diamond Select statues and busts.

    $89.99 and up? I’d love to, I really would, but lack of space and lack of funds says that if I spend that kind of money on anything at Toys R Us, it’s probably going to involve me staring at a TV screen with a controller in my hand…

    …hell, not even then.

    Though I would definitely make an exception for Music Label Soundwave, apparently the official name of the Soundwave MP3 player. It’s shown off at Fan2Fan, but might be trickier for some of you to find, so here are the new pics of the bad-boy in color, as well as with the original, and they say he holds one SD Memory.

    Blue definitely looks better, and with that, Red can have her iPods.

    A little more news about Alternators Rodimus reveals that he’ll be 25 dollars at Hasbro’s online store, not at all shabby. They say “limited quantities,” but hopefully not as limited as Nemesis Prime last year.

    And speaking of Hasbro’s soon to be redesigned website, they have a new game up to hype The Movie, known as Flight of the Bumblebee.

    An amusing little Flash piece with nice music and graphics, but unfortunately, it seems to lack the titular music piece.

  3. The Castlevania: Dracula’s Curse blog has once more been updated, so that we know that the crew are hard at work on making the best damn video game animated film since… um… Street Fighter II?

    Get back to me on that one.

    Anyway, he also goes on to reveal some other little tidbits that’ve been woven into the film’s tapestry.

  4. Movie-making seems to be all the rage.

    Besides YouTube, of course, and Nintendo’s hunt, now StarWars.com is getting into the act.

    Ought to be interesting. Hope we see some good Troops-like material amongst those used.

  5. Hmm, between Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Resident Evil 4 for Wii, LEGO Star Wars: The Complete Saga and now Marvel: Ultimate Alliance, it seems the new trend is remaking games that are still effectively recent, rather than golden oldies.

    I’m not sure how I feel about this. I think it would make me a little more reluctant to pick up some titles, though. Of course, to their credit, Ninja Gaiden Sigma is as much a port as it is a remake, so they get some leniency.

  6. GameTrailers has lots from Nintendo’s Media Summit, including an overview of the event.

    For absolutely everything (I think), be sure to check out Go Nintendo‘s coverage.

    Plus, Game|Life has a first-hand look as well.

  7. A lot of people have said that Blu-Ray would be the PlayStation 3′s downfall, but I don’t think this is what they meant.

    Troops! God, I remember watching that every day in middle school. Something tells me Lucas would digitally edit anything Star Wars themed into like, ewoks or something. Nobody loves the ewoks.

    On visitors: I know I stopped coming for a while, even after the hiatus ended; partially because I didn’t know it had. Maybe people are just slow on the upkeep.

  2. LBD Nytetrayn Says:

    Yeah, it’s been hard to “advertise” the return, but I’ve done what I can.

    Strange thing, though, is that the downturn is actually very recent… it’d gotten back to normal for a while there.

    And Ewoks > Jarjar.
