Wii Nintendo has announced that the Wii will be released on November 19,2006 for only $249.99. That's quite a bit cheaper than PS3 and the Xbox 360, plus it's Nintendo. Any gamer that has been around more than two video game has to be excited for this system. Its virtual console can download games for the NES, Super NES, Nintendo 64, Sega Genesis/MegaDrive, Turbo-Grafx, and MSX home computer. It will be directly backwards compatible to the Game Cube (including games, controllers, and memory cards). It has the Wii remote with nunchuk attachment, which has the potential to change gaming as we know it. They are standard wireless controllers (using Blue Tooth technology). The best part is that Shelley said that if its under $300, I can get it on the preorder date.

Fantasy Realms        Fantasy Realms has the best art of any manga style comic that I have found. Niko Geyer does an amazing job drawing in the manga style. He captures action extreme well. His colors, shading and line work are all done beautifully. The story starts right in the middle of a battle so that you can get a real feel for the style of it. Clay Gardner does a great job weaving the four main characters past into a believable story. The only downside of this comic is that it only updates once a week, on Mondays (although it usually has multiple pages). I can't really complain about this though, because the quality of the comic is outstanding. This is a very fast paced comic, so you can read through the archives very quickly, but you will have to be patient for the once a week updates. If you enjoy an anime or manga, definitely give this comic a look.

September 22, 2006 I had a hard time publishing the comic today.  My computer was refusing to work right.  I'm so mad right now that I can't think of any news for this spot today.
