Fire Emblem 3DS will be first Nintendo title to get paid DLC

There have been software updates to fix games, and even firmware downloads to patch security issues but there’s yet to be found any paid DLC (downloadable content, for all you non-gamers) on a Nintendo system to date. Well, that’s all about to change, now that a new Fire Emblem game is heading onto the 3DS, and will be bringing with it additional content for you to throw your hard earned pennies at Nintendo, cause y’know… they don’t already have enough of it. Reports are also saying that the Wii U will also take advantage of paid DLC. — More after the break!

Massive boycott prompts GoDaddy to change its stance on SOPA bill

GoDaddy.com, the domain name provider that isn’t exactly looked very highly upon in the industry, is not having a good week. I’m assuming you’re familiar with SOPA, the anti-internet bill that has been making headlines lately. If you’re not, then you can freshen up by watching this guy’s video. It all really means that depending on the circumstances, the copyright holders can stop search engines from linking to those sites, or even worse, require internet service providers to block access to them completely. The bill also would make unauthorized streaming of copyrighted content a felony. This has put GoDaddy in hot water due to their stance on the bill. — More after the break!

The Twitter app from old to new - Design in Review

A few days ago, Twitter launched their new design for their website as well as the re-designed Tweetdeck web app and the overall consensus was mostly positive, which is shocking considering people loath any change on the internet. From what we’ve seen, the brand-wide re-design of Twitter has been a success so far, and only a few small nicks and scratches are left to be filled here and there. Today though, we’re focusing on Twitter’s new iOS app because we think it’s the most significant change and just another example of Twitter expertly blurring the lines between desktop, web & mobile.

You wish you could be this smooth! Dude’s obviously a nerd, he’s got a hot girlfriend (now fiancée), and with the help of friends, used glossy paper to print out memes frequently seen on Reddit to propose, and quite romantically we might add! And somehow, despite all the odds, as this video goes to show, even nerds can be romantic saps who can make hot asian girls cry.

Nintendo issues fix for Zelda Skyward Sword game breaking glitch

So last night I personally just finished the Song of Hero quest, which roughly is at the very last leg of your journey to complete the main adventure, and I came out of it unscathed. Unfortunately, that hasn’t been the case for what could be hundreds of fellow Skywardians (?) who’ve been plagued by a stupid game-breaking glitch. Well, unlike the olden days in which you would have to start all over again, Nintendo will be releasing a specific channel on the Wii to help restore game saves. — More after the break!
