Good Bye "Flappy Bird"

Flappy bird is an extremely addicting mini game the was available on the Android and IOS App Marketplaces. The owner has recently took the amazingly popular game off the appstore, crushing many players hearts. Dong Nguyen, the 29 year old creator of the game was making $50,000 off of add revenue at the peak of the game's success. He removed the game off the appstores claiming that it had "become an addictive product" and that "to solve the problem, it's best to take down 'Flappy Bird'." Whatever the reason for deleting it though, I along with many Flappy Bird fans will always remember this fun little game.

New Nintendo 2DS and Wii Mini

Nintendo has recently launched two new products: Nintendo 2DS and Wii  Mini.

Nintendo 2DS:

The Nintendo 2DS costs $129.99 at the Nintendo Website. You can get it here. The 2DS can play all the 3DS games, just without the 3D. Just like all the other DSes, the 2DS has two screens, a touch screen (bottom of device) and a regular screen (top of device). One big difference between the 2DS and its family is the 2DS' shape. Here is a picture that demonstrates that difference.

The Nintendo 2DS is pretty much a cheaper way to play 3DS games (just without the 3D).

Now to the Wii Mini...

Wii Mini:

The Wii Mini costs $99.99 at the Nintendo Store. You can get it here.

The Wii Mini is a smaller version of the original Wii that sits on it's back. It can play all the Wii games, but sadly can not play game-cube games, and can not access the internet. Of course that is what you get for only paying $99.99. The Wii Mini also comes with the Mario Cart Wii game. Overall the Wii Mini is good bang for your buck because it can play Wii games and is very cheap.
