    Looking for an event Keldeo

    I didn't have the chance to pick this up when it was being given out recently, so if anyone has a spare, I'd appreciate it. I've got nothing of value to trade, so it'd have to be a charitable deal. I'll be around this weekend and evenings (UK time), but only then. If i'm on the chat and you...

    E3 2012 Predictions

    This year’s E3 is a little over a week away, and if - like me - you’re in the UK, you even get the added bonus of two days off just to watch the conferences! (Or something about an 80s rock band crossing over with that annoying kid in the April O’Neil coat from the X-Men or whatever.) Each year...

    R.I.P. Donna Summer

    Donna Summer is an artist most people that visit this site are too young to even have heard of. But almost everyone here will pretty definitely have heard - and fallen in love with - her work on the second Pokemon movie as the singer of the main theme: The Power of One. Today, she passed away...

    Can Nintendo save themselves from themselves?

    It's been an insightful day for Nintendo fans. First Nintendo announced that starting with New Super Mario Bros. 2 in August, they'll be selling first party 3DS and Wii U games online in their respective digital storesalongside their physical retail copies from the day of release. Later, someone...

    Feast of Fiction teaches you to make Poffins

    Introduced in Diamond and Pearl as a way to beef up your Pokemon's contest stats, Poffins may seem like a slightly less cool interpretation of the Pez-style PokeBlocks from Hoenn. But, as a trade off they're infinitely easier to reproduce in the real world. And that's exactly what Youtube show...

    And there came a day, unlike any other...

    So, next Friday is Avengers day (or the Friday after that for Americans, :p) at long, long last. I'll have to wait an extra 24 hours to go see it on Saturday instead, but after 5 years, what's another day? Anyone else planning on heading out over the next fortnight to watch comic book and...

    Star Wars The Old Republic

    So, I don't really think it takes a lot of liberties to say that this game is one of the best MMOs ever made - if not the best. The inclusion of a proper storyline as an integral part of the game - told through Bioware's own inimitable style - does more for improving the quality of the genre...

    The 8th Pokemon Movie is the best Pokemon Movie

    Discuss. Basically, I recently watched one of the 14th movies, and boy was it rubbish. I've been thinking since then about just how rubbish most of the Pokemon movies are. The first three do rank very highly, albeit with issues that may not gloss over so easily without nostalgia butting its...

    New Nintendo Direct announced - Pokemon title to be revealed?

    Nintendo has been dipping their toes into hosting their own 'tv show' like material for a short while now.

    The MPAA and RIAA's war on the Internet

    So, you probably can't have missed the drama this week in the MPAA and RIAA's war on the Internet. For those under a rock, though: The MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) and RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) had, until this week, been very successfully pushing two bills...

    PokePark 2 and Mewtwo event revealed

    Although the original PokePark game for the Wii was surprisingly enjoyable, you'd have been hard pressed to consider the idea of a sequel, let alone one for an otherwise dead platform such as the Wii. Yet, here we are. Read More
