N64Mini makes claim to 'world's smallest' portable N64, is still rather husky (video)
The N64 has been dead for two Nintendo console iterations now, but the dream for the portable version the company never created still lives on. We've seen plenty of homemade creations, but the latest from modder Zenloc claims to be the world's smallest at 120 x 200 x 50mm. As it turns out it isn't, the Retro 64 mod from earlier this summer is slightly smaller, but you'd need particularly large pantaloons to mistake either as pocket-sized. Sadly this one has ditched its D-pad in the quest to shave off a few inches, but we think it otherwise looks quite nice, and the modder hopes you will too, as he's put the thing on eBay -- humorously listed as "refurbished."

 The timing and price are up in the air, but Acer's next high-end gaming notebook will be the first using DirectX 11 graphics. It's also going to be insane.

Fudzilla's reporting that the Aspire 8942G-728G1280TWN is going to be a beast, shipping with a Core i7 processor at 1.6GHz, 8GB of DDR3 RAM, and the all-important ATI Radeon HD5850 graphics card. The other specs are equally over the top—18.4" 1980x1080 LED display, two 640GB hard drives, 8-cell battery—but what we're most excited about are graphics like this:

 Expect it on the market in early 2010 for a whole lot of cash. It also weighs over 10 pounds, so make sure to lift with your legs.

Configuration
The high-end device will offer some of the latest technologically advanced features. This Aspire model will be powered by Intel Core i7 720QM processor at 1.6GHz and will be equipped with a large 18.4-inch Full HD 1920-by-1080 display.
Acer’s powerful mobile PC will house 8GB of memory (2x4GB), two 640GB mechanical hard drives (5400rpm) and a Blu-Ray Writer with DVD SuperMulti DL.
And that is not all. Allegedly, this product will be the first to feature DirectX11 graphics by sporting Ati’s Mobility Radeon HD5850 video card with 1GB of DDR3 VRAM.
Connectivity
The Aspire 8942G-728G1280TWN comes with an integrated Intel Wireless WiFi Link 5100 (802.11 a/b/g/Draft-N) and Bluetooth 2.0+EDR connectivity support. The device will also feature 5-in-1 card reader slot, four USB 2.0 ports, Infrared and HDMI interface. Furthermore, the Aspire offers an HD web camera for video conferences and Fingerprint security.
Other specs/Pricing/Availability
The Acer Aspire 8942G-728G1280TWN is now available on a number of web sites for pre-order and is allegedly expected to start shipping in two weeks or in January next year. This new model will come with a pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium (64bit), an 8-cell battery (4800 mAh) and weighs 4.6kg (≈10.14lbs).
Acer’s powerful notebook will apparently be priced around €1,800 or US $2,716.


Moto Racer 1 | Rip 26MB

Overview : Motorcycle racing games have been a favorite in old arcades for several years. You know which games I mean the ones where there an actual motorcycle body you can sit on and you really have to lean into the turns. The illusion of racing a bullet bike at breakneck speeds is sometimes irresistible. Even better are the arcades that have several machines linked for multiplayer racing. This style of game has been mostly an arcade-only experience until now. Moto Racer brings the adrenaline rush to the PC, and even though it still has a long way to go to match the full arcade machines it was still lots of fun to play, especially with friends.
