You don't mess with the Zohan..

Opens today!

Nintendo Channel & Wii Ware.


Nintendo Channel is pretty exciting little animal. You can check out the latest game trailers. So you just have to install that channel on your wii.

An new channel for the wii shop channel. This is called the WiiWare. Same premise as the WiiShopChannel games, although these are new titles likely written for the wii. Rather then just a port of the old games.

Paranormal?

Cool videos. Lots of other paranormal creatures other then big foot and ogopogo. I love the paranormal.

Funeral Prize?

ok that's weird.
Some lady won a Funeral as a prize at a minor leagues game.

Excerpt from the Article:

"Some finalists for the prize arrived dressed in black or looking like death. The finalists participated in a pallbearer's race, a mummy wrap and a eulogy delivery."

Navi Robo Bear.

Finally, a bear that does something useful.. Finds Beer.



From Article:

"It's been a few years since we checked in on Navirobo. The iXs developed bot is now fully grown and fettered to Fujitsu and Kawasaki on a Japanese press tour. The bot features an impressive bag of tricks including an accelerometer ("ooo, it's bumpy"), light sensor ("don't forget to turn on the lights"), and voice guided navigation with the ability to point the way and describe nearby points of interest (read: honey pots). It'll even detect alcohol on your breath and presumably take a swipe at your jugular in just retribution. See for yourself in the videos over at Impress or check the few posted after the break."

Begging Computer Robot.

This is pretty cool. Never seen anything like it.
It plays music by synching up sounds from both the hard drive and floppy disk drives.

Recycling Heat into something useful.

Finally, someone has created a proper solution to a simple problem. Heat.
Great that they are going in the right direction.

"Whoever can figure out how to recycle heat energy is going to be rich." - B. Swein
