Nintendo's Next-Gen Arsenal

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the zelda's-got-a-gun dept.

Much of the coverage of the next-gen skirmish so far has focused on Sony and Microsoft. The already-impressive Xbox Live vs. the PS3. Just the same, for the first time in many years Nintendo is definitely in the running for top spot. About.com has a piece looking at what the big N is bringing to the next-gen party this November. From the article: "While Nintendo is trend setting with controllers like the Wiimote and, to a lesser extent, the nunchaku dongle, other companies will be following along. Nintendo's game plan from the genesis of the Wii has been touch and gamer-friendly games. They see the future of gaming in the Wiimote. Everyone else, at this point, seems to be just catching up."

    Is there any advertising on about.com ?
    I'm using adblock plus, flashblock and Firefox; so I can't tell if so-and-so dot com has a lot of ads or not - can't see ANY of them ^^

      How is that informative? The only information he provided was that he had adblock.

      If that is really 2, informative then this should be 5:

      I'm using RSS
      I'm using http
      I'm using email
      I'm using Safari
      I'm using NetNewsWire
      I'm at 7, informative already

      Adblock has nothing to do with this. Sure, you can't see the ads, but the articles are still broken up.
