Late Night Consoling

A "miracle cure" is being talked about all across the Internet that can fix the dead pixels on your PSP. Supposedly, a common industry technique when dealing with LCDs with dead pixels is to run a video that flashes the colors red, green, and blue in a fashion that would cause a seizure for the epileptic. A PSP owner created such a video, played it on his PSP, and voila! Dead pixels were gone! I'm not brave enough to try it, but if you do dare, report back with the results.

The Nintendo DS already has a handful of promising RTS games in development but you can add two more onto the list. Two of Strategy First's titles will get ported over: Jagged Alliance and Disciples. No other details on these games are available at the time but gamers were promised that these won't be the last RTS releases from them.

Nintendo finally announced an official release date for Nintendogs and it will be August 22, a bit earlier than expected. Like in Japan, three versions will be released but all dogs can be unlocked on each version. Exclusive to the US version are the golden retriever, husky, and boxer. Who wants to wait outside Best Buy with me?
