The unofficial Nintendo Blog is back in the game, but has undergone a few changes. A improved cache system has been implemented to make page loads lightening fast, and excess code has been removed to decrease load time further.
The advertisements have been removed because the ads being served were not contextual, and were slow to load. We now wear our Askimet badge with pride in our sidebar, as we approach a massive 13000 spam comments. Askimet is a tool that helps prevent spam from flooding NC.
The theme is back to basic, and will remain compatible with all popular browsers. The tag system has been removed, a new bookmarking plugin configured and all the silverware is polished.
So raise your soda glasses in triumph and drink deeply!

Nintendo of Australia just released, or we just noticed, a small promotional page in the vein of ‘The Wii Experiece’ named PlayWii. On the aptly named page, are images of first time Wii players, with positive Wii quotes interspersed between the images.

My heart screams in agony. I have three Wiimotes, so the Nyko recharge device won’t be able to double as a fancy storage location for the little bastards. Regardless, the mounting battery costs of owning and regularly using a Wii will be vastly diminished with the purchase of this delightful gadget.
The recharge station is suggested to cost $29.99 USD. Which coincedentally $10 USD cheaper than the suggested price for JoyTech’s Wiimote charger. [below]

Isn’t this just special! A few pieces of media that we should have posted 24 hours ago. Unfortunately, more exciting news came up and these enthralling screenshots of Theme Park DS were delayed. We apologize to all fans of chunky graphics and zany characters that have no appeal.
In closing, only leprechauns should wear green suits.
See after the fold for more delightful screengrabs.
