We've got it below:" You can read the rest of this from IGN above. 
IGN has some Australian game sales news and here is some of it: "Another week, another set of Australian game sales charts, thanks to GfK. What's the good word this week? Not much.

You can read the rest of this from IGN above. 
IGN has some Hardcoreware.net news and here is some of it: "As global warming melts the polar ice caps and rising water levels threaten to one day submerge IGN's California offices, excessive power consumption has become a legitimate concern for the average bloke. With so many gamers investing in the three new game consoles, an interesting question was posed by Hardcoreware.net: Which system uses the most power?" You can read the rest of this from IGN above. 
IGN has some Midway news and here is some of it: "Earlier this morning, Midway announced its results for the fiscal fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2006.

IGN has some Sega news and here is some of it: "While Nintendo seems to be content leaving the Virtual Console release list a mystery, not all companies are making Wii gamers play the waiting game in order to get the latest VC content. SEGA of America has done a great job thus far keeping gamers in the loop, letting us all know what exactly to expect for the Genesis portion of the Wii's download service, and the company is at it again with the announcement of four more Virtual Console Genesis games."

Whatever the case, sales data is always hotly anticipated and followed and that being true, we've designed the Graphs features to offer readers a closer look at the latest NPD numbers.

Regardless, retro fans will have a few more reasons to warm up their thumbs and enjoy some classic gaming through the Wii's Virtual Console very soon. " You can read the rest of this from IGN above. 
IGN has some more Sonic news and here is some of it: "Sonic mania has officially hit the Wii. The hedgehog's newest adventure, Sonic and the Secret Rings, has shipped to stores.

News:<a href="http://wii.ign.com/articles/762/762567p1.html">Graphs: Nintendo's Image</a> 
IGN has a is Nintendo a Kiddy company like article and here is some of it: "Is Nintendo a kiddy company? If you're a fan of the Big N and have been paying even the slightest amount of attention to trends in gaming lately, you've heard this question come up countless times. On one hand you've got a company that got its beginnings over two decades ago, brought such famous titles to the world of gaming as Super Mario, Zelda, and Metroid. On the other hand, you've got games like Pokemon, Pikmin, and Wii Sports; titles that show off a much more age-friendly presentation. Sure these are amazing games - Pokemon is one of the most successful franchises in the history of gaming - but it's hard to be a hardcore Nintendo fan and constantly be bombarded with the perception that Nintendo isn't a company aimed at the "mature" or "hardcore" audience." If you are or are not wondering what i think about this i can careless as long as the games are fun.Unlike kids of today who hate the Mario,Zelda, or Metroid games that are out nowadays because the Graphics are not picture perfect then all i have to say is then stick to the x-box 360 or PS3 if you only want games for the looks and not the fun.You can read the rest of what IGN said above. 
IGN has a new N-Query and you can read what they had to say.I don't want to spoiler what my be fun to read.I will say if you were looking for SSBB news you are going to be sadly disappointed because they left us hanging in the SSBB area. 
Diddy Kong Racing DS was released last night.If you hated the N64 version of Diddy Kong Racing this one will be no different.But if you liked it and want to play it over again then get it.The only Character Differences are that they added Dixie and Tiny Kong and got rid of a few old Characters.The Character Spoiler however tho it that Wizpig becomes a playable character this time.Also here is what Nintendo's Press Room said: "REDMOND, Wash., Feb. 7, 2007 - An array of cute monkeys, tigers, turtles and crocodiles (who were somehow granted licenses to drive) populate Nintendo's newest Wi-Fi-enabled game for Nintendo DS™ Lite, Diddy Kong® Racing DS. The racing adventure further revs the engines of Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection, which already has connected more than 3.5 million unique users worldwide for more than 100 million online game-play connections. Diddy Kong Racing DS adds another classic to this portable wireless community, complete with new tracks, upgradeable vehicles and a course-design mode."

Well you probably should have, because its sponsored by Nintendo. They’re not doing much in the way of promoting this event, but I was hoping you guys could make mention of it on your blog as I’m sure there are a lot of fans out there who will get really psyched at the prospect. If you need proof that this isn’t some kind of scam, I’d be happy to send you a draft of the contest rules. The contest should be up and running by Wednesday anyway at <a href="wii.heavy.com">wii.heavy.com."</a>
