Well thanks for keeping us here up to date for all those years, Wildcat. Don't think I ever mentioned it, but I really did appreciate it.

Hey this Tokyo Crash Mobs game says its copyright 1998 under MITCHELL. What does that mean? Was it a TV show or something?
Edit: Okay I found out. Apparently Tokyo Crash Mobs is a part of the Puzz Loop series created by MITCHELL in 1998...

Sense "Wrecking Crew" was recently released on 3DS. Here's something fun to do in the custom level feature. (It's something of a "code," but it's mentioned in the original game's manual.)
In the design level's screen, (the part where it shows the level building you're designing) use the second controller, (or switch to it with the L,R,Y option in the 3DS version) and press B+right (or A+right, I can't remember) at the same time, and you can customize the level you have it set to on the title screen. You can make earlier levels harder, or harder levels easier, and such now, (This of course, won't effect the levels on the title screen so don't worry about that.) or just use them as reference when designing your own.
You can also have other design options by pressing any other direction, paired with the A, or B button. (Like emptying the screen. or filling it with ladders, and such.) So there's actually some cool options for "Design" mode. Oh, and in the 3DS version, don't forget to switch back to the Player 1 controls. (With the L,R,Y option) when you wanna go back to customizing.

Hooray for lefties everywhere! Actually the original was okay for a lefty like me. Unlike KI: Uprising, which requires precise aiming, Dillon's Rolling Western was more about flicks and taps.

The YouTube channel for the Wii has been updated. Supposedly it's faster and more reliable now (altho I thought it worked pretty well before). More interestingly, it also has an option to control it using your smartphone! Is this the first time the Wii can be accessed using a smartphone?

Tetris Axis (3DS) has now arrived on the eShop for the low, low price of $9.99. Don't know if it's that cheap (or even avalible in PAL regions), but I think some might like this news.

According to GoNintendo, King of Fighters '99 is hitting the NA VC this week. This is awesome because it's one step closer to KoF 2000 (which, so far, is not even out in Japan). But '99 is great, and probably my favorite KoF after '97.

Oooh, I like KoF99. I already have the DC port, but it's definitely a strong entry in the franchise. I'm glad that at least one console is still seeing Wii VC updates.
