Boogie bombs: American Software Sales

DS - Pokemon Diamond / Pearl - Boogie bombs: American Software Sales

American chart for week ending 11th August 2007 is released and as you can see, EA's high profile Wii game Boogie didn't have a strong debut (the reason behind PS2 version rumors?) and couldn't get to top 10 which is dominated by Nintendo.

Pokemusings, week nine

DS News | Pokemon Diamond / Pearl

Naming your Pokemon is a vital but often overlooked part of the Pokemon games. Hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of people play Pokemon games without giving any thought to naming the Pokemon they catch. This, we think, is criminal. After all, you don't name your dog "Dog" or your cat "Cat." So why should you stick with species names like Charmander, Pikachu, or Togepi?!? We understand that Ash and his friends do this in the animated series so that viewers can learn the names of each ...

Underneath it all is an amazingly complex system that most players don't even know about. It's called EV training. EV training can make an enormous difference in how strong your Pokemon ...

Pokemusings, week six

DS News | Pokemon Diamond / Pearl

Using legendary Pokemon in battles is a piece of cake. Their stats are higher than normal and their move pools are generally broader than those of standard Pokemon. Even without proper training and with an unbalanced move set, it's pretty easy to win a battle using legendary Pokemon. You don't need a whole lot of skill to win this way. If you're a Pokemon master in the making then you're probably working hard at training standard Pokemon. Being victorious with regular Pokemon is a true ...
