Out of the 4 million, 1.5 million are slated for Japan. With what is happening in Japan, long lineup in North America and Europe on launch day are expected.

Gaming One Hour Everyday = Success in Life

Jane McGonigal over at the Huffington Post wrote an interesting article on how gaming can help improve quality of life. In her article, she explains that around 97% of boys and 94% of girls under the age of 18 are regular gamers showing how important gaming is to our lives these days. She goes one step further and makes an attempt to argue that gaming is a way to lead a successful life. While I would tend to agree with her views that gaming is “good for you” in that it is a great form of recreation and a fairly decent social activity, I wouldn’t necessarily believe that it makes people more successful. Regardless, this article is an interesting read and a fresh take on the traditional “OMG gaming kills children” views published in mainstream media.

Cave Story 3D heading to the 3DS

Cave Story is heading to the 3DS with 3D upgrades making this a slightly different experience to a neat little game that originally started as a freeware game on the PC. I’m hoping that even with the 3D enhancements, Cave Story 3D will be able to keep its retro 2D charm and still be an awesome game. It will be available for the 3DS in the Summer of 2011

Poll: Will You Buy A 3DS?

With the recent announcement of the 3DS being released here in North America on March 27 for a price of $249.99, is anyone going to get this nifty little 3D handheld? I’ve got my Aqua Blue 3DS already pre-ordered and paid off already thanks to the birthday money I saved up last year.
