3. Newsbit: The next IDW TransFormers Spotlight?
4. Video: The TransFormers Collector’s Club’s new Classics Nightbeat has been revealed.

Assorted Mushrooms

Video Power

1. Newsbit: Just when Sony thought their exploding battery problems were behind them, this happens, leaving the 12-year old burned.
2. Newsbit: Duke Nukem Forever will be released in 2008– or so they say.

   Or not. Lovely, just lovely…

3. Preview: The first pages and description for Sonic the Hedgehog #185 are now available.
4. Newsbit: If you’re in the area of Rockefeller Plaza this Sunday, you might want to drop by the Nintendo World store for the Professor Layton and Cobalt/Black DS launches.

   Otherwise, you could probably just go to Wal-Mart today and grab a copy.

5. Rumor: Talk is that Guitar Hero IV will hit stores in 2008, and that this may be the track listing.
6. Newsbit: The secretive RPG Nintendo Power spoke of last month has finally been revealed.
7. Newsbit: A lot of news about Mario Kart Wii, including re-confirmation of Baby Peach, possible GameCube controller compatibility, using Miis to race, and plenty more.
8. Newsbit: Seems that GoNintendo’s Bionic Commando petition has drawn the attention of Capcom.
9. Newsbit: Details have surfaced surrounding EA and Spielberg’s new game, Boom Blox.
10. Newsbit: The Smash Bros. DOJO!! has officially revealed another hidden character, though if you’ve seen the intro, then you already know of him.

    Of course, GameTrailers isn’t letting up on the videos yet.

    And Nintendo Power has scored the game the way you’d expect.

11. Newsbit: Happy Birthday to Atari and Chuck E. Cheese founder Nolan Bushnell, who celebrates 65 years this week.
12. Newsbit: 1up is changing their scoring policy? Sounds like they finally gave in to the masses. Kind of unfortunate, but at least this will be more effective for all intents and purposes.
