The web page no-longer mentions anything about the supposed channel but, apparently, the page used to read:

Error 206602

To redeem a Nintendo DSi Download Ticket number, such as for the Nintendo DSi Speak Channel, enter the number off the Nintendo DSi Download Ticket in 'Settings and Features' off of the main Nintendo DSi Shop page, then select 'Nintendo DSi Download Ticket.’

However, a Nintendo representative has said that "It's rumour as nothing has been announced." Come on, buddy. It sounds pretty fucking conclusive to us. Forget what the big N’s orders’ are and let everyone know about this new DSi channel… That no-one will use after the first week of downloading it.

Moments later, a Microsoft PR released a statement, saying:

"Our immediate solution for Blu-ray-quality video on an Xbox 360 is coming this fall with Zune Video and 1080p instant-on HD streaming. As far as our future plans are concerned, we're not ready to comment."

So is this true or false? Well, Ballmer seem quite certain that a Blu-Ray disc drive is coming soon, but we’re not ready to believe him just yet. We’ll let you know more about this story as soon as possible.

Nintendo’s almighty Shigeru Miyamoto has recently talked about his predictions of what Nintendo plans to do after the Wii.

"With both the Wii Remote itself and Wii Motion Plus, what we've been able to do is introduce an interface that is both I think appealing and at the right price for a broad audience,” Miyamoto said.

"And while we don't have any concrete plans for what we'll be doing with hardware in the future, what I can say is that, my guess is that because we found this interface to be so interesting, I think it would be likely that we would try to make that same functionality perhaps more compact and perhaps even more cost-efficient."

Smaller and more cost-efficient than the Wii, eh? Could this mean that an HD Wii will never see the light-of-day? Quite possibly, but remember this is just what Miyamoto thinks will happen.

Namco Bandai have announced a brand new co-op shooter titled ‘Inversion’ which will be out on the Xbox 360 and PS3 next year.

You and a friend take the role of either Davis Russel or Leo Delgado who are out to protect are from an alien invasion by the Lutadore, who wield a gravity-bending weapon. Players will use the Grappler weapon to manipulate gravity in combat and to overcome obstacles.

A spokesman from Namco Bandai explained the Grappler weapon in a little more detail.

"Grappler can be used in countless combat situations by manoeuvring massive objects as shields or projectiles, and moving camped enemies out of concealed cover so they can be blasted away."

"The Grappler is also a key tool for tactical situations and puzzle solving as players can lift, move, or create cover objects."

The first set of screen shots of the game can been seen below. We’ll bring you more info on ‘Inversion’ as we get it.
