The Nintendo DSi XL

allcast — Thu, 01 Jul 2010 10:04:32 +0000

DSi XL is the latest handled gaming console in the world of DS series of Nintendo, it is came from with pre-loaded three DSiWare titles, including: Brain Age Express: Math, Brain Age Express: Arts & letters and Photo Clock. If we talk about the specifications it is nearly identical from the previous Nintendo DSi, except for the other changes.

The 4.2-inch diagonal viewing angle screens that are 93% larger than those of the DS Lite, the increased sized of the DSi screen does a fantastic move, the sharpness, brightness and clearness of the screen. Which is more useful and helpful to the text based games like Scribblenauts with the use of improved and easy to hold stylus pen.

The most interactive part of the DSi XL systems are the two on-board digital cameras, one is located at the upper right corner of the upper screen pointing away from the user, the second one is pointing at the user when the device is flipped open and in between of the two LCD.

The DSi XL features the Nintendo DSi Sound application, which serves as both an interactive voice recorder and music player that allows users to play with their music while they listen to it. Users can access different audio filters or control the pitch and speed of recorded voice or music files to alter voices or change the tempo of a song. The DSi XL microphone is located between the two screens when the device is flipped open.

The DSi Xl came with a WiFi connection, you can go online anytime, anywhere in the malls, bars, restaurants, hotels etc with WiFi connections and with the use of Nintendo DSi Browser. You can download games through Nintendo DSi Shops, can use as an eBook reader, play with your friend via DS Download Play.

For me it is much better than the previous DS, it gives great functionality, increased viewing pleasure and further accessibility.

What’s New On ThumbGods

Cool Tech Toys — Sat, 23 Jan 2010 14:14:52 +0000

Here’s the year in review on sister blog ThumbGods.com:

In 2009, I reviewed indie games like Funky Farm 2, A Case Of The Crabs, Rotoadventures Momo’sQuest, Slayer of Dragon, Democracy 2, Electric Box, Faerie Solitaire, and CyberWord. I plan to keep focusing on creative, indie games next year. I also played major mainstream titles, like Cartoon Network’s new MMO Fusionfall, and James Patterson’s Women’s Murder Club: Games of Passion for the DS. ThumbGods reviewed the match-3 Atlantis, Totem Tribe, National Geographic’s Mystery of Cleopatra, Tales of Monkey Island: Launch of the Screaming Narwhal, Sims 2 on the DS, and Nancy Drew Dossier: Resorting To Danger! Major misses this year were My Boyfriend, Create-a-Mall, the disappointing Build-a-lot 3, and Jack in Lost in Blue 2. (Not all of LiB2. Just Jack.)

I tried to branch out a bit from reviews, and started writing some hints, including a guide to solving MyTribe mysteries and hints for Nancy Drew Dossier: Resorting To Danger! I’ll probably keep doing this whenever I’m really proud of solving a puzzle and want to help out.

Xbox 360

As a video game system, this is clearly an incredible piece of hardware. Having been a die-hard Sony customer for well over a decade, I wasn’t such a fan of the Xbox when microsoft first introduced it as competition to the Sony Playstation 2. Then came the next generation battle. Sony came out with the Playstation 3 console and Microsoft followed right up with the Xbox 360. These releases marked the balance of power shifting away from Sony. Prior to the next generation releases from Sony and Microsoft, Sony had always held its own as the system with better game selection and better user-friendly features. When Xbox 360 was released it was clear that game developers were favoring Microsoft. I myself preferred the Xbox 360 just because of it’s lower priced models and its lighter hardware. Now that the two have been out for a few years, the Xbox has become a multimedia powerhouse, allowing users to run their entire home entertainment system through it, much like a computer. While Sony has many of the same capabilities, Microsoft has been making computers for decades, and clearly has the most user-friendly system hardware out there.

Next Gen Console

rhiozeel pomer — Mon, 25 May 2009 05:16:17 +0000

I have just bought my playstation 3 and now they are now talking about next generation consoles. I owned a couple of console like SNES, Nintendo, PS2, Xbox 360 and now PS3. The graphics of the PS3 really blows me away. Now there are rumors of a WII2, Xbox 720 and PS4. Sony Playstation has a 10 year commitment with his console so they are saying that it would probably come out around the year 2014. However if microsoft did push with the rumor xbox 720 which Microsoft didn’t make any year commitment I think sony would have no choice but to push through it earlier. Another reason I bought the PS3 is because of it’s blu-ray, but now they are saying the PS4 will not include blu-ray but instead holography. Holographic disks or HVD will replace the current blu-ray technology. But of course next generation console will likely get rid of optical drive and base their games on downloadable. No more piling stocks of CD’s just huge amount of memory would do. With the current competition the big three are experiencing and with Apple ready to make it’s entrance and would really make waves it really exciting what they would come up next.
