DS Hack “Right to Buy” Sales Soar on Ban

asuka-ds.jpg

Attempts to sell the popular Nintendo DS hack devices, known as “majikon” and usually used to allow illegal copies to be run on the console, have recently soared on Yahoo Auctions Japan, but with a new twist; rather than selling the device, sellers are now selling “a right to buy the device”, which they appear to be unfailingly converting into an actual device.

A Tokyo district court has finally awarded Nintendo the ban on “Majikon” and similar devices, usually used to circumvent copy protection on games for the Nintendo DS.

The ban, long sought by Nintendo and a coalition of five game makers, bans import sales of the devices, and prevents the sale of such stock as is in the region. Major online auction sites now prohibit dealing in the tools.

Living on the Edge, Extreme Chinese Architecture

building-close-1.jpg

Yet another example of some rather extreme architecture, this time found in China. Though the building itself looks relatively sound, one has to wonder what kind of nuisances are present from living so close to the highway, though there is a more pressing question raised by the building’s construction…

Norn Saber Online: Legendary Taiwanese Plagiarism

norn-saber-online-taiwanese-plagiarism-extremes-1.jpg

Taiwanese anime fans have uncovered plagiarism of truly staggering proportions in the Chinese language MMORPG “女神ONLINE ~NORN SABER ONLINE~”, by “developer” Chinese Gamer International. It looks as though just about every single element of the game, from CG to sprites, and even TV commercials, is tainted with plagiarism.

Sadly, it seems the uniquely Chinese approach to copyright we have come to be familiar with is not restricted to the mainland…

In terms of the breadth and brazenness of its plagiarism, Norn Saber Online is undoubtedly in a class of its own:
