well if you already have a DS then there's absolutely no reason to get this new one.
and the whole backwards compatibility argument is so completely redundant to me because you can just you know, keep your old hardware, it's not that difficult to do, and why pay all that money for a new machine just to play old games anyway?
and i'm sure the camera is just a gimmick that a handful of games will use to get your face into the game, or to be used a webcam for the wifi stuff, and you'll be hard pressed to find a webcam that isn't 0.3 megapixels. yes it's a crappy resolution for taking still pictures, but who on earth is just going to pay the hundred some pounds just to use their DSi as a camera? that's right, nobody is.
so stick that in your shop and sell it  :D

Okay, I was thinking of extended the deadline a bit but it seems as though this contest has generated very little interest, which is a shame :(

I like both of the entries, but IndieBoy's really captures the spirit of what I was after, so he has won. Hurrah!

it's really good to see all the positive comments on this, they're well deserved as Progz worked really hard in the few days leading up to it's release and was exhausted.
i followed the creation of this game all the way through and i must say that the amount of time, effort and dedication put into it is truly admirable.
it was a real honour to be involved in the project and i look forward to more limey lizard in the future :)

oh wow, Tier certainly looks a bit different from the last picture i saw of him.

For those of us in the UK, any hallowe'en celebrations are soon followed up with Bonfire Night on the 5th of November.
Although this presents a bit of a problem for Super Squibs - the largest supplier of fireworks in the country - because their head firework designer was eaten by a pack of zombies on Hallowe'en. So now they're looking for somebody to replace him. Could that somebody be you?

Rules: Design your own awesome firework (think Gandalf's dragon rocket in Fellowship of the Ring, which was originally supposed to open up it's wings before taking off), it can be a rocket, catherine wheel, fountain, other type of firework, OR any combination of those!

Size Restrictions: Obviously Super Squibs want something to make people go "ooh" and "aah" and not blow them to pieces, so people are strictly limited to a size no greater than 150x150.

Colour Restrictions: No more than 64.

Optional Extras: You can supply an action shot of the final explosion of your rockets, twirling of your catherine wheels, gushing of your fountains or whatever if you would like to. You can also animate if you like.

You have until bonfire night. Good luck!

this is a very handy site for working out just how much power your pc needs http://extreme.outervision.com/psucalculatorlite.jsp
you just feed it your pc specs and hit calculate.
for your kinda setup it recommends 513w, so 600 should be enough. although i didn't include any fans in the equasion.
