VHS Behold JVC latest VHS, Blu-Ray and HDD recorder

VHS DR BH250

Like a bad cold, there is stuff which stick to you forever, and VHS seems to be one such stuff which seems to stick forever…a good recent example would be JVC’s latest all in One DR-BH250, a VHS, Blu-Ray Recorder and HDD combo (250GB HDD).

On top of offering the nice above mentioned combo, our DR-BH250 has a Memory Card reader, USB port, Support AVCHD, features HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) and 1080/60/24p.

The usual such combos are quite ugly and target for low-end usage. So breaking away with this pattern,
JVC decided to do an image-make-up to the product through a nice and elegant design and to upgrade it with some quite nice features.

Nintendo Officially Announces a Gaming Device

Nintendo DSI LL DSI XL

A couple of days ago Nikkei announced that Nintendo would make larger DSi with a bigger LCD. Last night Nintendo officially announced their DSi LL or XL in North America and Europe. It features a larger screen, 4.2” (the actual DSi has a 3.25” screen), and a larger body with some games included (brain training related).

The DSi LL or XL doesn't promise anything to the DSi gamer owner though as we got confirmation from a source at big N that this new DSi LL/XL actually doesn't target at DS and DSI gamers, but rather at people of 45 years and over. It's a larger device with a bigger screen for easier legibility, that is capable of boosting DSi e-Books oriented software, and has a stylistic DSi stylus with the look and user-friendly feature of a real pen.

In these hard economic times and with competitors such as Microsoft and Sony, Nintendo has to win a new breed of gamers which they intend to do by rendering the system more user-friendly and hence appealing to everyone. The DSi LL and XL is a logical step that increases the gap between what we've seen since the NES/Famicom and the actual Nintendo products. Clear as day, Nintendo wishes to be the leading company in providing electronic games to everyone, at every age…

Has the Nintendo that we liked disappeared? Personally… I think so. Is this bad? Not necessarily…
