Wii News

As promised by Nintendo at last years E3, Miiverse has finally opened to Desktop and Mobile devices on the go. As of now, the service is in BETA mode, and is restricted to "Yeah-ing" (The facebook equivalent to liking) and commenting on certain communities.

In what is another shock move by the company this week, and probably not for the best, newly appointed Nintendo of America CEO, and President of Nintendo, Satoru Iwata announced today that there will be NO NINTENDO E3 CONFERENCE this year.

In what is considered a shock move by not only Nintendo but the President himself, Mr Satoru Iwata has decided to make a move and become the Nintendo of America CEO. This has come to a shock to many, as Mr. Iwata has always placed himself in Kyoto, Japan as the Head President, overseeing Nintendo's product.

April as we know it is of course the month dedicated to humor. When we start talking about games, there are a whole lot of unintentional jokes out there to be had. Let's take a look at some of the silliest moments the industry has ever seen!

The tech industry is abuzz with features we might see in the next generation of gaming, but do we really want all of them? From always on capability to social media integration, let's take a look at the evidence!

Traditionally Nintendo gaming on the go has been dominated by the likes of Gameboys and the DS, but what if you could play your Wii U in the car? With this easy to use adapter, now you can!

A few weeks ago, I published a Gaming Shades of Grey story about DRM that got quite a few of you talking. Since we've already hashed out the debate part of the issue, let's take a look at a few of the games and foibles that caused DRM to become such a hot industry topic.

Nintendo's Wii U has lacked the starting sales that were gifted to its predecessor.  Because of this, one UK retailer has taken it into their own hands to get some units shifted.

The Sony scenes have been bumping from all angles, but we can't forget about Nintendo. Fans of the ZX Spectrum are going to find a lot to love in this updated emulator.

As we speak, Square Enix's Tomb Raider reboot is dominating the sales charts around the world. However Lara wouldn't be where she is today without some of these epic moments that helped to create and inspire the strong explorer that's capturing hearts today.

Sometimes getting through a game can be a difficult process, but is it okay for a hardcore gamer to use a guide or walkthrough to help them out? I'll lay out the issue, and you can tell me what you think!

Here at DashHacks we take great pride in the fact that we are huge supporters of the indie game community. While most of the talented minds we tend to highlight make tools for hacking purposes, today we'll be looking at a new PC game project from the folks over at SomeArea Studios that is sure to redefine the way that we think about co-op gameplay. Introducing, Illegal Aliens!

With their mountain of legal bills, there's no denying that folks over at Nintendo and Apple have probably seen some slightly better days, but for the hackers of the world things definitely got a whole lot brighter. Find out all sides of the story in this week's One Hacker's Opinion!

There's no real avoiding the fact that as of right now the Wii U hasn't exactly been selling out in the storefronts. Of course there are lots of things you can attribute this to, but in the end here are just a few things Nintendo can (and possibly should) do to solve their problems.

With talk of the SimCity debacle still hot on the mouths of gamers, there's an ethical question that comes to mind: is DRM as good a thing for the industry as it pretends to be, or is it just one more nuisance to work around? Let's take a look at the debate!

As has usually been the case, the news servers have been pretty hot this week over at DashHacks, which you all know means I have a job to do. Looking for a recap of all the good stuff with just a little bit of slant on things? You've come to the right place!

With the announcement of the PS4 and the Wii U already on shelves, it's safe to say that the next generation of home consoles is upon us. With that said, the standards for performance are slowly being established thanks to a lot of the things we already use today. If your new machine doesn't take advantage of these current trends in tech, you best rethink your strategy!

With graphics and processors getting better and more advanced with each generation, rebooting classic franchises has become more popular than ever. Just yesterday we saw Square Enix's take on Tomb Raider, but there are plenty of other old games that could be a real hit if they were backed by some of today's technology.

With the next generation of home consoles almost fully upon us, the minds of gamers are readily focused on just about anythig new. However no matter how shiny or powerful these systems get, I think there are still a few pointers these new kids on the block could learn from the still popular classic era of the industry? Don't believe me? Take a look at this article!

Especially with all this talk of the coming "next generation," discussions about which console has the best exclusives have never been more popular. After all it's these very titles that actually separate an Xbox 360 from something like a PS3. Still, does having the rights to produce games with a certain character really matter all that much? If you asked me, I would tell you that I'm not so sure about their buying power.
