MicroCenter Dates GTA IV

Has a retailer let slip the release date of the next Grand Theft Auto? National electronics chain Micro Center has released a sales circular with the bottom of one page stamped with the Grand Theft Auto IV logo, a few choice pieces of art, and the words, "March 08." That would be a Saturday for those of you who keep track of such things, which is a pretty odd day for such a huge title but certainly not unheard of. The circular warns that new release availability is subject to change, but it seems like an awful lot of black ink to waste on speculation. GameDaily, who broke this particular story, got in touch with the folks at Rockstar to see if they could get some sort of confirmation.

A Rockstar Games representative on Tuesday replied by reiterating that Grand Theft Auto IV "is going to come out during our second financial quarter of 08."
So no help there. With Super Smash Bros. Brawl releasing on the 9th, this could mark the most I've gone out on a weekend since I turned 21.

Recent circular advertises early March date for the upcoming Rockstar game. [GameDaily]

Rare Not Sure About Downloadable Content (Neither Are We)

Add Microsoft owned developer Rare to those who aren't sure downloadable content is teh future. While some companies exploit the crud outta micro-transactions to profit from half-finished games, Rare is waiting it out. Take the company's Viva Piñata, which is short on things you can buy online.

Mini Micros Make Good Clocks

Fear not! Nintendo isn't hollowing out Game Boy Micros and turning them into digital time pieces. (The company is most likely melting them down to make rollerskates.) These Micro clocks are part of the a recent slew of mini Nintendo thingies to appear in Japan. There are super small DS Lites as well. They don't tell time, though. Bummer. Brian Ashcraft More »

Super Size Me Game Boy Micro

Thought you've seen ever possible Micro faceplate? Japanese blogger takuronyan whipped up a DIY Super Size Me faceplate. Bewildered, I have no idea why. Perhaps he was making a biting comment on fast food. Perhaps he was making a word play on "Super Size" and "Micro." Or perhaps he was bored. More »

Nintendo's 60 Game Boy Micro Demo In Shibuya

This past Saturday, Nintendo put its "art games" on display in Tokyo. Sixty Game Boy Micros were set up in Shibuya Parco's basement, demoing new "Bit Generations" titles. Simple puzzle games rich in color and sound, the games included Dotstream, Boundish, Dialhex, Coloris, Digidrive and Orbital. These neat titles and this slick set-up seems geared to kick some life into sagging Micro sales. (Probably wasn't a good idea to set up another display with the still selling-out DS Lite, though.) The games are going to be released sometime this year, while Part 1 of this exhibition will continue only until May 15, 2006. Definitely worth checking out.
