As some of you may know, there are already huge Super Smash Bros. Brawl tournaments all over the States right now.

Nintendo and Best Buy team up to crown a national champion.

Attention all Smash fans: Put up your dukes! Just before the launch of the much-anticipated Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Mario and friends are hosting four regional Wii tournaments. The competitions will visit Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston and finally New York for a Midnight Madness Launch event at the Best Buy store at 622 Broadway in New York. All of the 256 participants at each location will receive a $10 Best Buy gift card. One lucky grand prize winner will receive a custom-designed, crystal-covered Wii, a home theater system from Best Buy and other prizes.

"Super Smash Bros. is one of the world's most popular game franchises

because it draws in characters from across the Nintendo universe and beyond

for some all-out fighting fun," said Cammie Dunaway, Nintendo of America's

executive vice president of sales & marketing. "Super Smash Bros. Brawl has

extreme appeal among our core audience, but these tournaments are a great way

to get new fans involved as well -- before the game is even available in

stores."

Each regional tournament will provide the first 256 people in attendance

the chance to "brawl" one-on-one with other contestants in a

single-elimination tournament to determine a winner in each market. Regional

winners will face off in a final multiplayer "brawl" at the New York City

tournament.

The grand prize winner will receive a crystal-coated Wii with a design

from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, a home theater system from Best Buy and a copy

of the game. The second-place finisher will receive one Wii system and Wii

Remote, one copy of Super Smash Bros. Brawl and a $1,000 Best Buy gift card.

The third-place finisher will receive a Wii and Wii Remote, a copy of the game

and a $500 Best Buy gift card. The fourth-place finisher will receive a Wii,

an extra Wii Remote, a copy of the game and a $250 Best Buy gift card. For

Super Smash Bros. Brawl features dozens of Nintendo characters, from Mario

to Link to Pikachu, as well as new characters like Solid Snake, a

gritty soldier from Konami's hugely popular Metal Gear series, and Sonic The

Hedgehog. The combat-filled game lets characters of all kinds brawl until only

one is left standing. Its predecessor, Super Smash Bros. Melee, was the

best-selling game of all time for Nintendo GameCube. Super Smash Bros.

Brawl has more characters, more features and more action-packed fun. What's

more, Super Smash Bros. Brawl uses Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection, which allows

up to four players to simultaneously brawl no matter where they are based. For

a complete list of characters and features, visit http://www.SmashBros.com.

On a side note, does anyone know where I can get an R4 in Canada, specifically Calgary or Vancouver? I'm hesitant buying it online... Thanks!

[Guest strawberrynkiwi]

I tried to explain it, but I just realized it is easier done as a visual.

I found a picture online for you: http://www.gamebrink.com/nintendo-ds/layto...es/image031.jpg

Credits go to Xcomp.

Try to solve it after using the hints before clicking on the link, it'll feel more satisfying. (Even though less satisfying than solving it without hints.)

[Guest colorstoobright]

Got dat Apollo Justice, it's pretty good.

Lucky! I'm waiting for the rom.. lol.

[xstarBURST]

Got dat Apollo Justice, it's pretty good.

[Guest jaesun]

professor layton!!

its so funn

[Guest simpleandpink]

^Isn't it??

Ugh, I don't really like that (prospective) new DS. It looks too thin. I'm going to drop it and it will break for sure...plus, I think the quality of the sound & video will have to go down because of it's thinness.

[Guest monchichi]

I bought an r4 for my brother and he took my micro sd chip... ._.

however, the upside is that my old chip was 1gig and my new chip is 2gig (more games!! )

But now I'm having trouble with the themes ._.

I can't remember how to make it load (it's been so long). I've created a theme folder in _system_ and created THEME01 to THEME12 inside the theme folder... but it still doesn't automatically load... maybe it's the spacing? any help? ._.

[Guest darkbahamut]

The new DS design looks like it will snap. Then again, that's what I first thought when I got my PSP slim XD

[raito]

Anyone playing Dungeon Explorer: Warriors of Ancient Arts?

that games is pretty addictive, action rpg.

the multiplayer mode is awesome, you can team up with your online buddies (up to 3) to join you in quest and stuff.

my fc for it is: 515523 680945

[Guest christina.]

Hey, guys? > 3<;

I ordered a 2gig Kingston MicroSD for my R4 (which is coming in tomorrow or so), and mine states that it was made in Taiwan... I was reading all over and it says that Japan ones work with the R4 or something.

Do the Taiwan versions work with the R4? T_T; /worried.

Newegg said that it was the Japan version. >:[
