Do you own a Nintendo 3DS? Do you plan on getting the Circle Pad Pro when it launches early next year? Lastly, do you live in North America? If you answered yes to all of three questions you will need to know this in order to purchase it (if no then I’ll allow you to stop reading). The Circle Pad Pro is an attachment for the Nintendo 3DS that adds an extra thumb stick and shoulder buttons to the console and will reportedly have limited support working with only select 3DS titles (Resident Evil: Revelations and Monster Hunter 3G are confirmed). That is its main function, but in order to buy this attachment you will have to shell the $20 asking price over to GameStop. According to a Gamasutra article I read, the Circle Pad Pro will be sold exclusively through GameStop in North America and is being done so as an initiative to reduce the amount of potential extraneous units floating around at other retailers. That same article also mentioned about how this isn’t Nintendo’s first rodeo with doing something of this sort. Nintendo also did this with Electroplankton and Chibi Robo!Park Patrol for the DS.
I think that anything Nintendo can do to reduce the risk of over manufacturing these attachments is an excellent idea. Having them at one retailer will almost guarantee that they will only produce what is either pre-ordered or requested from the retailer. I think this is a win-win for everyone and will surely keep Nintendo from dipping further into the red. What do you think of this act on behalf of Nintendo? Do you think it is a good/bad idea? Do you wish you could purchase it at your choice of retailer? Sound off in the comments section and let us know what you think.

Sorry for the late posting of this; I kind of forgot about it (better late than never I say). Anyways GameFly Nightly Deals continue tonight and are more plentiful than usual. If you have used us for GameFly deals before you know what’s up, but if you are new to them let me give you the low down. All games from GameFly come with new cases, manuals and online passes if required. Also all the titles included in this deal have free shipping (which is kick ass right?). Lastly these deals will run until tomorrow night at 5PM PST or until stock is depleted. Every game has its own corresponding link to the GameFly store. So Happy Shopping to all and to all a good night.

The Humble Bundle is back again with the Humble Bundle 4. Five new games are now available for download, with another two for those who pay at least the average amount. It’s currently $5.03, and even though that amount will change as more donations are made, it usually stays around the five dollar mark.
As always, the Humble Bundle is pay what you want, DRM free, cross platform, and helps charity. The games you’ll be getting, with descriptions thanks to the HumbleBundle site, are:
1. Jamestown – Jamestown is a beautiful, new shmup that brings neo-classical flavor to the grand tradition of scrolling arcade shooters. Up to four players blast and bullet dodge through a hostile Martian frontier, armed with the very best in steampunk weaponry. A “stay-alive” co-op system will have you screaming at your buddies during the epic, retro-style, screen-filling boss battles, while unlocking sick new ships and weapons.
2. Bit.Trip Runner – Bit.Trip Runner radiates charm and challenge with retro-styled, music-platformer gameplay. Players take control of Captain Video as he runs through more than 30 levels. Each stage features a unique music track perfectly synced to Captain Video’s hops and slides, resulting in a fresh and intuitive platforming experience.
3. Super Meat Boy – Super Meat Boy is what you get when you mold a little man out of ground meat, and put him in a world full of tricky gaps, slides, and hazards. Plan to perish many times in the course of saving Bandage Girl from Dr. Fetus, but prepare to bask in the glory of pulling off impossible platforming feats, unlocking secret characters, and triumphing over 300+ levels.
4. Shank – Shank is a highly stylized, action-packed, 2D brawler, featuring satisfying fight combos and familiar platforming challenges. Players assume the role of Shank, a former mob-hitman, on an epic quest for revenge. In the solo game, Shank traverses levels filled with henchmen, culminating in awesome boss fights. There’s also a full co-op story, which tells the tale of Shank‘s life prior to the events of the solo campaign.
5. NightSky HD – NightSky is an atmospheric, 2D physics puzzle platformer. The player uses acceleration, gravity, and motion to navigate a glowing sphere through over 130 unique and picturesque levels.
As for the bonus games for meeting or beating the average payment:
6. Gratuitous Space Battles – In the sci-fi strategy game Gratuitous Space Battles, players outfit a complete fleet — from bulkhead-to-munitions — to clash mightily with opponents from across the galaxy. With layer upon layer of customization, master strategists will always be able to find a way to blast the competition into smithereens.
7. Cave Story+ – Cave Story is the critically acclaimed opus by indie game developer Pixel, originally created as a tribute to games like Metroid and Castlevania. Cave Story is a 2D platformer in the “metroidvania” tradition, with a classic, world-saving hero and an emphasis on exploration and discovery. The indie studio Nicalis worked with Pixel to update graphics and add new game modes, reflected in this edition of Cave Story.
This Bundle, like all the rest, is only available for two weeks, so make sure you hustle on over and grab your copy. Mac, PC, and Linux versions of every game are available, as well as a Steam key for any of you Valve gamers out there. Get awesome games, at a great price, and help charity. Seriously, stop reading this and get on that.
Xbox Live keeps the deals rolling and this week is no different. The theme for this week’s discounts is Japan’s Finest.

Anyone that really knows me knows that one day I would love to visit Japan and possibly even live there if the opportunity presented itself. This latest video featuring CheapyD and Scott Popular made me drool with envy. The store they toured “Super Potato” is a retro gaming store in Japan and would make someone like myself instantaneously broke. They had such an incredible selection of video games and other video game related merchandise that was beyond appealing to me. I have been infatuated with Japan for quite some time and it is something that I have a hard time explaining to others and sometimes myself. When I see videos like the one above it just sends goose bumps down my spine in a good way. There is so much to digest in Japan beyond just gaming and it is something that I can hopefully fulfill in my lifetime. I want to give props to CheapyD and Scott Popular for this video and I look forward to seeing what other special gems Japan has to offer via your video series.
