Mega Drive Portable clone available at Play Asia

Popular games consoles in the cyber world are increasingly falling prey to piracy. The low-priced cloned versions always do not match the quality of the originals. However, their low prices do not leave much space for complaint from gamers with low budget. The TechToy Mega Drive officially licensed by Sega is having competition from its clones – the first one being from Brazil and currently a more recent cloned device has been discovered on Play-Asia.com. The 16-bit video games console from Sega has been popular in Brazil and Europe, but had been unable to attain any significant share in the American and the Japanese gaming market. In North America, Mega Drive goes by the name Genesis to avoid trademark related confusion. The Mega Drive had huge initial success, when it was first released as the then gaming world was tired of the 8-bit NES. After Nintendo arrived, it is becoming increasing difficult for Sega Mega Drive to retain its popularity. The duplicate devices, it seems, will not be able to find many takers since the original gaming device has lost the huge chunk of its customers already to Nintendo. Source: engadget

Princeton announces new Wii-mote accessories due out next month

The worst thing that I hate in Nintendo’s Wii-mote is its high power consumption. Though, this Wii accessory is innovative enough, but it keeps asking for a pair of new lithium battery, every week (it really infuriates me). As, chucking the batteries out is neither good for environment nor your pocket, so we are anxiously waiting for some better/cheap alternative that sorts out the problem of changing the batteries. You whispered it right; a charger. Princeton Technology Corporation is the first to throw the cap into the ring as it has introduced a new pack of accessories for Wii-mote. The accessories are: � Battery pack + Charger (PWA-BPS) � Wii-mote hook-on accessories (PWA-SPA) PWA-BPS comes bundled with a battery pack and a battery cover for Wii-mote. One can charge the Wii-mote battery while placing it inside the cradle of charger. If you can’t wait, you can get your controller charged while playing with the help of extra eclectic battery. The incarnated LED display keeps you informing whether the battery has been charged or not. In order to thwart the overheating problem of the electric battery, the charger automatically stops charging as the temperature exceeds 50°. You can get controller’s battery completely charged in 3 hours, allowing you a nonstop play of approximately 17 hours. Furthermore, the developer reveals some Wii-mote compatible accessories that can be attached to the Wii-mote in order to have a better sporting experience while playing Wii-Sports like game. The pack comes with a tennis racket, a golf club, bat, and a steering wheel, all to be attached to the Wii-mote with the help of a remote controller holder. To put controller in work, you place it (remote controller holder) where the strap is tied and can enjoy various attachments, simultaneously, which are meant for different minigames.
