Nintendo Bans Homebrewers - Gameplayer

From article:

"Recently, when we were at a Nintendo DSi unveiling event, we asked the question: "The DS Lite has got some serious issues when it comes to piracy, will this new DSi take steps to shaft them?".

The lovely marketing representative didn't have any technical data to give us, but she did confirm that yes, Nintendo was aware of the problem and that it was going to be addressed with this new iteration of the DS.

I enjoyed both Rush games, I did think the action was sometimes too fast to see what was coming up in terms of hazards though, which meant replaying the same stage a bunch of times, other than that they were enjoyable, good special stages, 3D sections and bosses for the most part.
