Rewind back to late 1998. The GBC was launching and geeky editors like ourselves were having a field day. We already managed to convince our good pal Ben Heck to build another Xbox 360 laptop, so it was only a matter of time before we started brainstorming on how the hell we could possibly fit a Gameboy Color into a "portable" enclosure. That's the part where Ben stepped up his game and worked his magic -- for ten years -- to build... the Gameboy Color Laptop!
The essential specs:
* 2-inch LCD screen with 144i resolution, no backlight yet
* HDMI-DVI connection (same as Xbox 360 laptop)
* Built-in buttons, stereo speakers, headphone jack
* Size: 17 x 13.75 x 3-inches
* Weight: 16 pounds!
You want this one of a kind piece of kit for your very own, Nintendo fanboys? You got it. We're auctioning this thing for slavery real soon, so watch out for details. And, naturally, big ups to our pal Ben Heck for the long hours and love he put into this thing. The man is truly a hero of ours, so be sure to hit up his site to check out his other projects, as well as the other instructional stuff he's done.

Recently Rock Band developer Harmonix said that if Wii wanted DLC for Rock Band, it needed a HDD. It looks like Nintendo finally gave in. Starting April 26, you will be able to purchase Wii's add-on HDD, which comes in two flavors. The 256MB is $49.99, but you can go for the recommended 1.2GB which is $129.99. Nintendo hopes to expand the gaming experience with the HDD, as a rep said "Gamers wanted the space. We gave it to them. JK LOL ROFLMAO FUCK OUR CUSTOMERZ." The picture above shows the add-on as a man is hooking it to a Wii. Finally, we can all ditch those pesky SD cards.

Well it seems EA Sports ditched John Madden, the old guy who talks alot. They planned to use new announcers, but they now use a new game title. Since he probably is dead, the Madden series is being renamed to Michael Vick Football. Michael Vick is obviously the cover player, although he is not a big fan of videogames. Records show that the only game he plays is Nintendogs which he calls "a simulation". The game will be just like every other Madden game, exactly the same as the year before it. Michael Vick Football '09 is still extremely anticipated, as it is the only football franchise left.

This Eidos developed game is one to watch out for. You play as legendary Chris Crocker as he/she/it has to fight through a crowd of skimply dressed women who won't LEAVE BRITNEY ALONE! There are 12 stages, each getting progressively less fun throughout the game. The sixaxis was originally used to control Chris' fire shooting penis, but devs later found out the penis was not visible or was nonexistent and the feature was scrapped. The game comes in 2 packages, the censored version for $59.99 and the "Little Sausages Fun Pack" for $69.99, which is uncensored. Jack Thompson recently said "Why don't you just molest children directly rather than through Rockstar. It would be more personal that way." This is what developer Eidos is pretty much attempting to do, molest your children. This game could change gaming as we know it, because we have never had a game with a character who sucks so much cock. Except maybe Rengoku. That game sucked major dick.
Note: We do not hate gay people. We hate Chris Crocker. There is a difference.

This chart was taken off VGChartz, and wasn't really modified at all pretty much. PS3 is doomed in America unless Betamax comes back. Nuff said.

We got this from a Missouri K-Mart ad, confirming Sony has planned a redesign to the PSP called the Slim and Lite and Small. We have no word on pricing yet. It looks like besides the fact the unit is half the size, the analog stick, square button, triangle button, and circle button have been removed, but an antenna was added for more location free support. Also, the screen is still widescreen and the resolution is the same, but you must turn the unit to the side at all times while using it because all game images will appear sideways. Innovation at it's best.
