The 2D Revolution Continues: Mega Man 10
Confirmed By Nintendo Power

post from The BBPS on 11 December 2009 12:00:00 AM. © The BBPS

Surprise, surprise. The rumors were floating around, but I didn't want to believe them. Not because I don't love Mega Man but because I didn't want to get my hopes up and see them dashed.

Projector + PS3 + Portable = 3 P's of Genius!

post from The BBPS on 11 December 2009 12:00:00 AM. © The BBPS

video details and more

It'd take some real gusto, or money, for me to bungee cord my new PS3 to my back and dangle over a building, but I'll be damned if watching someone else do it isn't the coolest thing ever. As Gizmodo points out, it may be an Epson ad in disguise, but there's no denying it's super cool.

My dream: An epic game of RISK on the Genesis projected onto the fountain at the Metropolitan Opera House. That would work, right?

November software NPD: Modern Warfare 2, other
games

November software NPD: Modern Warfare 2, other games screenshot

We aren’t surprised that Activision and Infinity Ward had a strong showing in the month of November with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. The prime reason being that we’re aware that a lot people seem to dig the IP. The other reason, of course, is that most studios and publishers steered clear of the launch. Hell, even my mother put off her neck surgery for fear of competition. But some games did come out, and some even sold well considering, at least according to the latest NPD numbers.

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 -- Xbox 360 -- 4.20M
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 -- PS3 -- 1.9M
New Super Mario Bros. Wii -- Wii -- 1.4M
Assassin's Creed II -- Xbox 360 -- 795K
Left 4 Dead 2 -- Xbox 360 -- 720K
Wii Sports Resort -- Wii -- 720K
Wii Fit Plus -- Wii -- 679K
Assassin’s Creed II -- PS3 -- 448K
Dragon Age: Origins -- Xbox 360 -- 362K
Mario Kart (w/wheel) -- Wii -- 315K

While nowhere near 4.20M units moved, it's nice to know that Mario can still hang with the newer big boys. On a dissimilar note, it's a bit of a shock to see that another FPS, L4D2, was able to roll during the MW craze. Mad props.
