There is a pure software emulator; several non-remastered PS2 games are available via PSN, and they work with slim PS3s. Hacked PS3s can use that emulator for any PS2 game (with varying degrees of compatibility).

Yes, there is a Sly Cooper movie on the way, apparently. It's coming out in 2016*. And it will feature the return of Sly's nemesis, Clockwerk.

Oh, I see the distinction you're making. The Pokemon app was done with Nintendo's blessing, but not direct oversight.

According to an unconfirmed Nikkei report, Nintendo plans to release trailers for new games on smartphones (presumably Android and iOS) as well as "free mini-games." Until now, Nintendo hasn't made any gaming content available on smartphones.

Did he have a bad experience with a deli growing up or something?

The injuries were visible to the teachers the next day.

Also dumb: stepping on mushrooms and turtles.

It's an excellent question. I hadn't even heard about Flappy Bird until I read Bernstein's take on it this morning, largely because the free app charts on iTunes are a joke. While the paid charts can be taken as an indicator of a popular, well-made app or game, the free charts are home to oddball titles like 100 PICS…

Companies that don't want to be sued by Keebler call them Marshmallow Crispies.

Late last year there was a promotion where if you bought certain items from Amazon (digital games, I think), you got a coupon for a game of your choice from Amazon's Editors' Choice list. The coupons were sent out some time this month.

I found the songs to be just OK; they weren't to my taste. I bought it for the custom track mode, though, and it's worth the price of admission for that.

And we got pretty close to the 3D videophone.

Okay, so it was a few years off, but I'm pretty sure you can do all of that with your phone now.

Exhale on your left foot, sniff your right.

While I'd rather see the work you describe done, too, the thing that makes it HD is the resolution. (Shh, just pretend the Vita version is named something else.)

The first game in the pair always outsells the second. Always. Red outsold Blue, Gold outsold Silver, Ruby outsold Sapphire, Diamond outsold Pearl, Black outsold White. The same holds for the remakes. (And to be clear, those are the officially used orders, not a product of one being more popular.)

That is not a Nintendo D-Pad.

The Gameboy Advance had a different aspect ratio from its predecessors and added L and R buttons. A new Gameboy would likely do that again. (Not that I'm a fan of this design.)

The GameBoy Micro is pretty fine.
