Nintendo Revolution, A revolution or a flop?
E3 is soon, next generation console information is been released. But is Nintendo saving the best for last. The Nintendo Revolution is only about the thickness of three standard DVD cases and only slightly longer, dose this mean Nintendo has something special for the little Revolution? Or will it flop? This article is about the Revolution, the console that we wonder about.

Last e3 it was the DS this e3 it’s the Nintendo Revolution, slowly the information is spilled on to the internet, and slowly we piece together the Nintendo Revolution.
So far we know that it will be backwards capable with the Nintendo Gamecube, and will be a very small system. It will use 12cm disks and can stand horizontal or vertical. We also know that the Nintendo Revolution’s disk drive will be used for both the GC disks (8cm) and the Nintendo Revolutions (12cm) in the one drive, the controllers will also be wireless and online will be out of the box.

This is good news, but what about the “revolutionary” part of it? So far Nintendo hasn’t said anything, but there have been some Trademarked items from Nintendo that lead the speciation.

Once of these has to be that the Revolution will allow you to see more of what’s going on. But this factor hasn’t really been put with the Revolution for quite some time.

What’s been talked about a lot, is the “touch screen” or girospoc sensors on the controller. This is interesting and can make the Revolution an interesting next generation system.

What ever Nintendo wants to do, it will be done, and it will please people, but if it’s not revolutionary like Nintendo says, it will be a flop. Also Nintendo has mentioned something about wow graphics, Nintendo finally consecrating on graphics? Only time will tell.

Art of the Chicken
Part 2 of Trinest’s useless articles
Today were talking about that the internet is filled with n00bs, and why dose my topic get the name of “Art of the Chicken”? No reason just thought it needed something to prove my point.
There are n00bs everywhere, I walk past people at our school library and what are they doing? Using email of course, but with hotmail…only around 256MB, why don’t they take up my offer for Gmail which has 2GB and rising? Or get Yahoo? Because they don’t want to move, some don’t know what 2GB is, some say 256MB is more. People these are the n00bs you should hide from, so quickly grab your blanket, and towel and leave into the forest, so the n00bs don’t get you.

“Face it, the whole internet, is filled with n00bs”
You may think I’m a n00b for righting my article on the most useless information, but I’m doing this only so I can get back on track and try and deliver at lest 1 article a day, maybe more. This is not an n00b; Microsoft describes the word n00b as:
“Some leetspeekers view “n00b” as an insult and “newbie” as an affectionate term for new users.”
I find the word more to be used for someone that is clueless about the internet, I have no reaction if someone calls someone I know that is like this on the internet an n00b, because they are one.

“Don’t call them a n00b because they spell bad, call them lazy”
I have had over the past, lots of people calling me a n00b just because I spell badly, this is nothing to insult for the word n00b, but there is a proper word which fits, “lazy”.
Most people spell badly when there a n00b, (because they use 1337) but most just spell bad, so don’t call them a n00b because they spell bad, call them lazy.

My next useless article will be about. Something not to do with the internet for once, I hope.

- Part 1 of Trinest’s random articles
During my sites ups and downs, I have found out that there are many tricks and trades, one of which is, rumors when they happen people have ways of making it look official.

Normally a news post will show a source at most sites (we don’t because its extra work) and basically easier for someone to track the page down and look. But one of these was Another Codes USA date, and there was also another rumor which started out similar, but I can’t remember what it was at this time. It started off saying “Nintendo today announced…” then it will go onto something saying “that (e.g. Another Code’s date) has been announced for the 21st of June in America” of course at the moment we count it as a rumor but also, maybe it’s from someone inside? Because we found the UK Another Code date a month before it was official announced. Weird? No because most rumors are covered up as real information, or real information is covered up as a rumor. Basically if you don’t want something to be known, report it as a rumor on your site.

Then there’s the fake news that gets reported, it’s not rumor or a fact, its just fake news to stir up the community. Effectively making people that are “unaware” believe it is fact and tell people its fake, only based upon one sites option.

“Your Idea of a good game, is different to the reviewers”

Most websites review or preview games, that’s okay. But most give biased options on games that are okay. But most people take it seriously and well then flame the writer, maybe with spam or hate mails. But what really is wrong is when the reviews include another system, which has a similar game on it, and then have basis options on the other systems game.

You may think this is uncommon, but in fact it happens a lot, on sites on forums or in magazines.

“Remember kids never report news around the 1st of April there’s a 99.9% chance its going to be fake”

April fools is a time of year when people muck up, and report fake news, if you’re not the person doing this, well then your most likely reporting old or fake news during that time period. Also anyone remember DS-Link Up, they should know the joke must start on April fools not latter (like the 4th >.<). We nether reported this until it was to late. Reporting April fools day jokes is common, and is a mistake you have to stop doing, because? Its only fun to report your own fake news.
