Just an exciting update- one of our staffers has just won a big cash prize for designing a winning PC game! Most of you may know Alex Plunkett as being our lead coder for Kakashi: The Search for Tingle. The total prize money was $500.00, which we’re sure he can use to create even better games! Stop by in our comments section, and tell him congratulations, and also thank him for working so dilligently on the Kakashi title.

In other not-so-news, there’s a video that you may have missed; apparently, not too many Zelda fans have actually seen it, but yes, it’s official, and from the first Legend of Zelda title. That video is actually a commercial. A really pimped-out commercial. Just watch it below.

And in other news, several more Pokèmon from the upcoming Black and White games have been released. Check out Official Nintendo Magazine for more info.

Finally, we want to wish you all a belated “HAPPY 4TH OF JULY!” for our friends here in the states! I know we all had a blast, and we hope you did, too.

Our friends over at Zelda Informer have just released an article/video that they have been working on for over eight months. You can be the judge over whether or not it was worth all of that time, but it’s a nice six minute watch if you’re interested in seeing what opinions people over at other websites have on on the series. You can visit Zelda Informer’s website here to check out the article.

And although we don’t normally cover non Zelda-related projects, our sources tell us that most of you also play the games from the Pokèmon series. Anyway, Nintendo has just announced the new “starter” Pokèmon for the Black and White installments in the series. Visit Official Nintendo Magazine‘s site for more information.

Finally, we have a special announcement; this coming week, we will have a beta testing engine for Kakshi: The Search for Tingle. Keep in mind that this will contain no actual gameplay, and will just demonstrate the way that our engine is shaping out to be.

Well, it’s not exactly “Zelda news”, per say, but it is Nintendo news that most of you are probably interested in. Nintendo has just re-released Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver for the Nintendo DS. The games play the same way as Diamond & Pearl, and are, as always, backwards compatible with the previous Pokemon installments.

For those in my generation, this is a blast from the past, as these were considered some of the best handheld games of the decade. They introduced over 100 new Pokemon, along with an entirely new continent. You could even return to the areas from the past games! Anyway, be sure to pick up one of these games if you’re feeling a bit nostalgic.

Finally, I must announce that we are working hard away on our new site layout. It’s starting to look extremely good, and I want to thank you all for putting up with the current mess!

More news to come soon!
