Mario vs. Bowser Illustration

I thought I would share this. Above is an illustration in which a Warp Pipe community member inked. If you like what you see, I encourage you to digg it.

Wiiminder Update

Just a brief note, Wiiminder has been updated and is now fully compatible with the latest version of the Wii Internet Channel.

The update improves overall stability, adds the ability to scroll tabbed content while zoomed in, and fixes a glitch which caused the auto-hide interface to disappear.

Be sure to keep an eye peeled for some exciting things coming from Warp Pipe in the not so distant future.

The Legend Of Zelda Theme Via Theremin

I happened to catch the above video, which was just posted on GameVideos a few minutes ago, which shows the theme from The Legend Of Zelda being played using an exceptional instrument called a theremin.

A theremin was used in the original Ghostbusters score and is great for evoking an ethereal and "spooky" sound.

More On Warp Pipe

We have a strategy for Warp Pipe which will allow us to operate somewhat independent of the traditional third party game developer system (and hopefully generate net income quickly).

Our product roadmap begins with web-based services and will hopefully result with games on shelves running on the demasked platform (a platform that will start as a web-based service). Our mantra is all about connecting gamers and keeping them in touch with each other without having to leave the game experience. This is not going to be clear initially, but the closer we get to our end goal, it will all come into play.

Times have changed since our initial venture, as we now live in an environment that is more friendly to independent game companies. There are opportunities that did not exist two years ago that will allow us to exist and grow in what is a very competitive industry. That said, we will likely be spending a lot of time (Q2 2007 - ?) developing and releasing downloadable games for Xbox 360 and possibly Nintendo Wii (largely depending on what Nintendo's plans are).

Lots of work ahead of us, expect to see some notable changes in the coming weeks.

Wii Got One!

After 6 long hours in the cold, I have a Wii! More later, time to play.
