Actually, due to some other engagement I totally forgot the Electronic Entertainment Expo or E3 which happened last June 15-17, 2010. On that game event, Nintendo presented more details on the Nintendo 3DS console. I watched the Nintendo E3 Presentation Video earlier and it looks like Nintendo is doing another 3D gaming system, and the next generation of the Nintendo Wii that has 3D support. As a Nintendo Wii user I immediately felt excited about this development. Just imagine  you will be watching or playing games with real 3D effects without the need for any special glasses unlike 3D on cinema which they are distributing that special glasses. But of course this will be perfect if 3D television technology adoption is already high.

Nintendo 3DS will succeed the Nintendo DS series of handhelds with backward compatibility and some neat 3D and camera features. Game Control includes Touch screen, embedded microphone, A/B/X/Y face buttons, + Control Pad, L/R buttons, Start and Select buttons, “Slide Pad” that allows 360-degree analog input, one inner camera, two outer cameras, motion sensor and a gyro sensor.

So there just some information on Nintendo future consoles.

For the generation who grew up with the band will be happy but for the generation who haven’t heard of the Band might just move on to other games.  Will Guitar Hero Game still marketable today ?

So, what does this imply ? Non North America players might not be able to login anymore. Actually, I still have to confirm this personally since I’m also playing Aika. If this will be pushed through well its bye bye time to Aika. At least for now.

After few minutes, I arrived at my game station in which I immediately guessed and visited mobiusgames website and immediately saw a banner of Cloud Nine Online. It looks like mobiusgames or should I say Digital Media Exchange and Netgame binded with partnership for games distribution and game credits. I now realized that I missed this game news two months ago.

The partnership of Digital Media Exchange and Netgame made possible for PH players of Hero online and Cloud Nine Online able to convert Mobiusgames epoints to Hero Online Ncash and Cloud Nine game currency.

I hope I can get my hands on the Hero Online and Cloud Nine posters soon.

This is because I love a PC classic game and similar game concept with Cities XL called SimCity. Well, the way I see it Cities XL offer more good features and new ideas.

Cities XL is city-building online game where gamers can develop cities on realistic 3D maps. The challenge is that you will compete with other gamers by creating the right combinations of social services, leisure activities, special events and job opportunities. If you succeed you will make your citizen happy. You can also trade with other cities to boost City Building plan.

Since I wasn’t able to get that Cities XL Beta Key, I just need to wait for the open beta to come. I did also check some screen captured from the official website found at http://www.citiesxl.com and I was amazed to the environment shown on the site.

Go ahead and check it out. Maybe we can be neighbors in this virtual MMO world.
