Nintendo: Wii U Still Having A "Negative Impact" On Our Profits


It should be no surprise the Wii U hasn't performed as well as Nintendo may have expected it to as its sales continue to disappoint the company on a regular basis. The latest reports coming from Nintendo continue to show how poorly the console is performing as a total of 460,000 Wii U consoles sold worldwide in the six month period ending on September 30. In total, the Wii U has sold a total of 3.91 million units globally, although Nintendo is optimistically predicting its console will sell nine million units before the end of its 2014 financial year.

iPhones Captured 34% Of The Japanese Market In September

It is safe to say that Apple's iPhone is without a doubt popular regardless of wherever you go, although its market share will vary from country to country. However it seems that with the recent launch of the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c in Japan, especially with NTT DOCOMO finally coming on board and offering the device to their subscribers, Apple's iPhone has managed to capture a fairly significant amount of market share.

California Cop tickets woman for driving with Google Glass

California Cop tickets woman for driving with Google Glass

We've seen private establishments like bars ban glass. We've seen social backlash about Google Glass being for being “Glassholes” (the term is lamer than the tech). But one place Google Glass hasn't been banned yet, although it's in the works: your car. Not anymore. Glass Explorer +Cecilia Abade was just issued a ticket for driving while wearing Google Glass.

There is no publicly available information discerning the legalities of driving with Glass and at most (in my opinion), Cecilia should have been given a warning, well wishes, and been on her way.

Hands-On: Samsung Galaxy NX

Hands-On: Samsung Galaxy NX

Samsung first unveiled its Galaxy NX camera earlier this year during a press event the company held on June 20 in London. Since then, we've been hearing more and more in regards to the Galaxy NX, but today, we were able to finally get our hands on the camera for ourselves. Before we get into the nitty gritty of what Samsung has put under the hood of the Galaxy NX, we know one of the first things you'll take note of when you get your hands on the camera is how it feels. When we held the Galaxy NX in our hands, we felt extremely comfortable holding it, although it's understandably top heavy due to its lens.

Moto X now $100 cheaper off-contract through MotoMaker

Moto X now $100 cheaper off-contract through MotoMaker

If you've been looking for a good reason to snap up a Moto X without having to sign a two-year contract for AT&T, a $100 price drop might be a good reason. After seeing the phone come down in price to $99 and $149 on the two-year agreement deal, Motorola has now also applied that same price drop to their off-contract pricing. That means you'll be able to get a Moto X for as little as $480 without having to sign a two-year contract (add $50 for the 32GB version). Unfortunately, things still aren't all peachy with the MotoMaker.
