Harrison, Kaplan And Llewelyn Leave Nintendo

According to Game Informer sources, approximately 90% of the Nintendo of America Sales and Marketing Staff has decided not to make the move to either San Francisco or New York, thereby taking a severance and leaving the company.

Three key executives will be leaving Nintendo of America, including Senior Director of Public Relations Beth Llewelyn; Vice President, Marking and Corporate Affairs Perrin Kaplan; and Senior Vice President, Marketing and Corporate Communications George Harrison. When these three will actually depart the company is unknown at this time, however, we’re betting on the fact that they’ll stay with Nintendo of America until the upcoming E3 show is over.

Red Steel For Wii

Red Steel for Wii is the next game I'm eyeing. Check out this French commercial for the game. It's real cool. I will write a review as soon as I get my hands on this game. :)

I got my Wii!!!

I got my Wii! Yes, right here in Singapore. It's an US set, comes with Wii Sports bundled in. The shop also provides a direct 220V Wii adaptor for local use instead of a step up convertor that some of the guys in Singapore got.

Check out this shop at Tampines Central if you are interested in getting a set. :)

Wii Sports Experiment

This is about a guy lost weight playing Nintendo Wii for 6 weeks! This is something I would definitely try when I get my hands on Wii :)

Six weeks ago (December 3rd, 2006), I began what has become a huge obsession of mine. It is called the “Wii Sports Experiment” (
Read my original announcement of this from Early December ‘06). I outlined a 6 week game plan for myself, the idea being that I would continue ALL normal activity and eating habits, and simply add 30 minutes of Wii Sports to my day. For the past month and a half, I’ve stuck to these guidelines very strictly....
