In this Special Edition of WiiDS, we speak exclusively to Joost van Dongen, lead programmer and CEO of development studio Ronimo Games, creators of the original De Blob and the upcoming Swords And Soldiers. We discuss the coolest company name ever, the studio's new take on the RTS genre, the key points of Swords And Soldiers, the challenges of developing for WiiWare, the possibilities of DSiWare, and a certain game about paint. The team would like to thank Joost for his time and wish Ronimo the best of luck with their endeavours. Enjoy!

This episode is dedicated to those posters and owners who ask the, "What is there to buy for my Wii?" Question.

Mani and Jason discuss 25 titles that might have dodged a keen eye, or have been around a while perhaps have been forgotten about it?

Hopefully a normal WiiDS service will resume next week, as all of us are now returning from our summer migration to find sun, sanctuary or both!

Enjoy!

Here it is: the second part of the first ever WiiDS Podcast to be recorded live. Picking up where we left off, the team continue to speculate about the big game rumoured to be arriving this Christmas, as well as coming up with a few ideas of our own about what we'd like to see hit shop shelves.

After that, we move on into What We've Been Playing with a brief hint of the shennanigans we got up to and James can finally discuss that title he's had under embargo. Can you guess what is is?

Throw the likes of emails, virtual console releases, forum members, and topic of the week into the mix and the most epic episode of the WiiDS Podcast so far is finally complete. Enjoy!

This week, we have a very special show for you as we present the first ever live episode of The WiiDS Podcast. Recorded from a flat somewhere in the heart of Essex, the episodes features James, Tom, Mani and Dippy together for the first time. Along with all the usual banter, we covered the latest news, including rumours of a widescreen DS, a Wii version of Animal Crossing, Epic's comments on the Wii and UK trade body ELSPA's stance on those dreaded R4 cards.

The majority of the show is taking up by the main discussion in which we speculate over what we could be seeing from Nintendo at this year's E3, including Reggie's Big Game and a range of listener suggestions. As you would expect, the inane banter inherent to the podcast ensued with four hosts in the same room, so the second half of the main discussion, plus all of the usual segments, will be released later this week.

We apologise for any discrepancies in the audio quality, but the nature of recording live and channeling four microphones into a single feed means a slightly reduced quality that could not be fixed in the edit. We hope you enjoy the show.

Hey there everyone, Ben here, just informing you that the WiiDS Forum is now officially online. As of yet, we are being hosted by another Nintendo podcast, called Nintencast (www.nintencast.com), until we can get our own hosting, and get a decent website set up. Now, as of yet, the forums are really basic, with a plain layout, and only a few sections. However, as time goes on, we will get more content on there, to make the experience even more enjoyable!

Here's the link: www.wiidsforum.com

So get on there, and get involved!
