There are tons of games coming out. Maybe not nintnedo 1st party games, but there are final fantasy's, Ninja Gaiden, Kirby, & others (Im to tired to make a big list). Final fantasy and Ninja Gaiden are coming out soon.So is the world ends with you, and I think something else. Then there is E3.Minishdriveby

I know there are lots of good games coming out, thats why I specifically asked for Nintendo games, meaning first party. I guess it is too early in the year to be able to tell though, but which of their major franchises haven't they brought to the DS? Oh and Pikimin just came to mind.

I don't have a problem with people doing this to places like Gamestop and Wal-Mart.

One time I walked into a Gamestop and this guy was totally trying to con these kids into trading their games in. You could tell the kids felt pressured and uneasy just by looking at their faces. Anyways, Gamestop is the last place I shop at, which ends up being almost never.

I looked at ign's release list and I didn't see anything big that stood out. I did see ASH and DS Air, but I have no idea what they are.

Is Nintendo going to try and create some new franchises?

I can't think of any major Nintendo titles that haven't made their way onto the DS yet, besides Smash Brothers and Pilot Wings. Is there something I'm missing that Nintendo should be bringing to the DS?

if you want to watch tv on your monitor you need one that supports those connections, there are many 24" monitors with componet connection. if you want to watch and record tv through your computer you need a tv tuner card. as far as i have seen there are only standard def pvrs that can do over-the-air hd.

video cards are outputs not inputs""

Well the tv is connected through component, so that leaves the hdmi output free to be used, and the computer is connected through a vga cable so I guess what I'll look for is a computer monitor that has vga and dvi/hdmi along with a pip function. Do you have any recommendations for this in 24" or less?

Ok so here's the deal. We have our direct tv cable box connected to our tv and in the room next door we have the desktop computer. My brother wants to connect the hd dvr cable box to the computer, while leaving it connected to the tv as well. He wants to watch tv on the side and browse the net/do other stuff all at the same time so we need some kind of PIP solution. We're going to drill a hole through the wall to get the cables from the hd dvr reciever to the computer. The total length of the cable will be about 9 feet max.

So what's the best way to do this? Should he invest in a new computer monitor that has PIP? Any recommendations? A new video card?

Thanks for your time.

So it looks like the most games are in the 7.0 - 8.0 range.

Incorrect again. It appears most games are in the 1.0-9.0 range.

I have a GBA Micro, GBA SP, DS, and of course a PSP. I hardly ever take them out with me because when I'm out I'm doing something and don't have time to play. I do tend to take my GBA Micro around a lot because its so small its easy to fit in my pocket, but I hardly ever use it. I use to keep it in my backpack so I'd play when I went to school and had breaks in between classes but even then I didn't use it because I'd be talk to my friends instead.

Obviously, I like portable devices because one second I can be in my computer chair playing, and the next I can be laying down in bed playing, or playing in front of the tv watching something and only looking up when something interesting is going on.

I think this is one of the biggest reasons why the PSP is doing poorly in software sales. Most people play at home and most people have a console to play on. The DS offers games that are very different from what you can find on consoles, the psp on the other hand is trying to mimic a PS2, something most people already have. Personally, I have about 14 PSP games, but I think for most people, if Sony wants us to continue buying games then they need to give us games that we can't get anywhere else and are AAA must haves. Right now, Sony is concentrating on their AAA games mostly for the PS3.

[QUOTE="zombiefruit"]The Canadian dollar is worth more than the American dollar. Where have you been?kingrich06

Well I'm on planet earth, and 1 Canadian dollar is worth 0.9914 US dollars, so the US dollar is still worth more than the Canadian dollar. Also, I'm sure theres good reasons why prices are higher in Canada, but I don't know them.

My clients pay me in USD and the company i work for has been losing alot on exchange alone

I don't think I'm reading it wrong. See the Euro is worth more than the dollar, and you know this from reading the news agreed? That's why if you have 100 Euro's, you can buy 146.8899 US dollars worth of goods. If you have 100 Canadian dollars, you can only buy 99.1375 US dollars worth of goods. See, the Euro is worth more than the dollar because if you have 100 Euro's you can buy more than a 100 in USD and it's the opposite with Canadian dollars because the Canadian dollar is worth less than the American dollar. It's a bit confusing I know.

Your clients have been losing money because they probably have some of their money in the form of USD and the USD has been dropping in value, meaning if you have your money in USD your losing money. Also, a lot of European companies have been eating the cost of the value of the USD dropping because the United States is such a big factor in the world's economy, they didn't want to raise prices and have their sales go down. European goods have gone up in value but not by as much as they should have based simply on currency exchange.

And just to throw this tidbit out, a lot of people have accused the United States of going to war against Iraq because Iraq is (or at least was) part of OPEC, and they wanted to start trading their oil using the Euro and not the dollar. Billions of dollars worth of oil was (or maybe still is not sure whats going on right now) traded in the USD and switching to the Euro would mean the USD would drop in value. This never really made headlines in the United States, but it made big headlines in Europe.

WEP encryption isn't safe and theres ways to hack it, but I don't have a clue how. Also, a WEP key isn't a "glitch" it's a security code, the way a key might be to a locked door.

If your apartment has "free" wifi, then maybe you should talk to the management and ask for the WEP key because if it is free then they should give it to you because theres no real way to get on without the WEP key unless you hack it and who expects you to hack free wifi? Management may have put a WEP key on it so that only the residents could log into the internet and not just anyone driving by who could leach free internet and do illegal activity.

On the other hand if you simply "thought" the internet was free because someone wasn't using any encryption, then I bet hacking would be too advanced for you and you should stop leaching.

Cheers.
