No words, just graphics. Result? Awesome advertising.

No news of a local XL yet though but considering how long it took for the first to arrive, I would say “You sir are one patient Nintendo fan!”

Sony and, now, Nintendo, joins in to brush off the iPad.

If only Microsoft released a handheld I would be able to add on a third post to round up the iPad bashing.

“It was a bigger iPod Touch”

Well then, the newest DSi LL/XL is just a “bigger” DSi then which puzzles me why a bigger model is really necessary.

But, considering Nintendo’s track record in the handheld gaming market they do know what they are talking about to a certain degree.

Nintendo has Mario and Sony has a vast library of IPs to draw upon, the newest being the LittleBigPlanet that suited the PSP perfectly. Does Apple have a killer app/game up their sleeve to gain the respect of the gaming community?

We’ll just have to see how Apple’s newest gadget stands up against the big boys in the coming months.

Nothing like a good tech cat fight to add flavour to an otherwise mundane Thursday. Oh wait, I just forgot, Apple just released their newest gadget, the iPad!

Apart from horrendous naming (iSlate sounded just fine), some people are already jumping on the bandwagon to hail the next competitor to the mobile gaming market. Abit too early methinks.

Sony has already announced that they are not the least bit worried of any Apple mobile devices moving into their territory, Nintendo, being the nice guy has not released any form of comment. In this respect, I would have to agree with Sony.

The iPod touch and iPhone has had a few good years under their belt to establish themselves as gaming devices. While the average consumer may enjoy the short game of Bejeweled while riding the bus or train, it certainly would not attract big developers to may big budget titles just to attract the gaming crowd.

Anyone tried the new Chinatown Wars on the iPod/iPhone? The controls on such a small surface is certainly a challenge but the bigger iPad does not make it any easier for one to lug it around.

I can just imagine the stares that one could get if you actually tried to play the iPad on the train. But, if you are the kind that enjoys such attention, I’m pretty sure you have already found the system of choice.

Although I may be too quick to put down the iPad as a gaming device. It is just a matter of time on how creative developers can get to developing a killer game/app for the platform.

For now, bigger is definitely not better.

Here’s a lol just for the fun of it. Btw I work on a mac, i own an iPod & iPhone so i’m not exactly an Apple hater here <3.

Once again Mario owns, no surprise there. If you to build brand loyalty at an early age, a game like Mario is the way to go.
