I was going to post this in the Pokmon Platinum thread but since this had some other copyrights I thought I'll post this here.

I would assume that Picopict may be the DSi Moving Memo Pad application on the DSi and Wii Golden Handle is most likely the Golden Wii Wheel avavlible from Club Nintendo in Japan.
And Nintendo does appear to be copyrighting the entire colour spectrum for Pokemon and updating the copyrights to older Pokemon games.

Especially with the multiple spellings of "Scarlet." I'm not concerned with the Pokemon registers, I'm more interested in TAKTOFMAGIC.

Well it's official, Wii Play is the best selling game of 2008. Top-Selling Games In The U.S. For 2008 (All versions combined. Units in millions) 1. Wii Play 5.28 2. Madden NFL ‘09 5.25* 3. Grand Theft Auto IV 5.22** 4. Mario Kart w/ Wheel 5.00 5. Call of Duty: World at War 4.63 * All versions of Madden, (Wow there's a lot of versions).** All versions of GTA IV (360, PS3 and PC). Nintendo really needs to make a sequel to Wii Play and include a bundled Nunchuck. Also here's some animations made with the DSi's moving memo pad software. (The top right Mario one was most likely done with a Mario figurine and the DSi's camera). More here.

They still haven't given a release date for Kirby Super Star Ultra? Man, that's totally lame.

Well it was to be expected with the success of the first title. Hopefully they'll have more characters this time.

Short trailer and press release (Miyamoto is invloved just likt the first game). TOKYO (February 12, 2009) – SEGA® Corporation and Nintendo Co., Ltd today announced that two of the biggest video game heroes, Mario™ and Sonic™, will be coming together again, this time taking their rivalry to the snow and ice in another officially licensed Olympic-themed smash hit Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games™. Heading to stores late in 2009 on the Wii™ home video game system and Nintendo DS, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games will take players to Vancouver, Canada, host city of the official 2010 Olympic Winter Games. This gaming experience invites players of all ages and skill sets to face-off in some of the most intense winter competitions available for the Nintendo platforms. Developed by SEGA of Japan, under the guidance of Shigeru Miyamoto, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games will take players to lifelike Olympic venues where they can choose from a legendary cast of playable characters, including new faces to the series to be revealed later this year. Following the phenomenal worldwide popularity of Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games, which has sold over 10 million copies worldwide, this fresh gaming experience will feature completely new Olympic Winter Games events from the official competition schedule including Alpine Skiing and Speed Skating with more events announced throughout the year. Tailored to the specific system controls, Nintendo DS and Wii gamers will enjoy completely unique experiences thanks to each platform having its own specific gameplay features and modes. Players of all skill levels will enjoy the intuitive controls of both the Wii and Nintendo DS systems, in both single and multiplayer gaming modes. The Wii game will offer an even richer multiplayer experience offering co-op and competitive gameplay where the Nintendo DS brings an intense competitive element using the Nintendo DS wireless capabilities. Additionally, one of the new features to be found in Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games is the inclusion of the Wii Balance Board™ which can be used in some events featured in the Wii version, allowing for a more interactive and realistic gaming experience. Published by SEGA across Europe and North America, and published by Nintendo in the Japanese market, Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games is again licensed through a worldwide partnership with International Sports Multimedia (ISM), the exclusive interactive entertainment software licensee of the International Olympic Committee (IOC). “We are extremely happy to again team up with Nintendo and ISM on what promises to be another global success.” says Naoya Tsurumi, CEO, SEGA of America and SEGA Europe. “Sonic will partner with Mario once more beneath the spotlight of the legendary Olympic Games. Together they will face new athletic challenges that will provide gamers with more of the exciting experiences unique to this series.” ”SEGA has been a valued publishing partner of Nintendo for many years and Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games is the ultimate representation of that relationship,” said Reggie Fils-Aime, president and COO, Nintendo of America. “We look for this game to continue the tradition its predecessor started by bringing new events, new characters, and new gameplay experiences to fans worldwide.” “To once again have Mario and Sonic and friends compete in Olympic sports and events in a winter setting is tremendously exciting for the Olympic Movement and the millions of gamers worldwide who enjoyed the characters’ previous match up”, says Raymond Goldsmith, Chairman & CEO of ISM. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Winter Games will be in stores late 2009. For more information about the game, please visit www.sega.com or www.olympicvideogames.com.

Forget "hopefully they'll have more characters", the first had enough. What it didn't have was enough quality. So make it good this time, Sega.
Also, who says "Olympic Winter Games" rather than "Winter Olympic Games" (or even just Winter Olympics?) It seems off.
