Earlier today,we told you about a Guitar Hero: World Tour deluxe bundle. Some mistook that as a price for the whole entire band kit. On top of that, confusion surrounding the price for the bundle still gathered, enough so that Activision Blizzard had to clarify the issue. Pricing for the game's bundles is as follows:

  • Nintendo Points non-transferable between Wii, DSi

    To allow for the fact that the DSi will feature an online store, Wii Points were recently renamed to Nintendo Points.

    Despite this rebranding exercise, Nintendo has revealed that you won't be able to transfer points between its new handheld and the Wii. In other words, if you buy a Nintendo Points card and use it to purchase (say) DSWare, you'll have to spend any remaining Points from the card on DSi downloads. Likewise, this also means you won't be able to transfer any 'spare change' Points from the Wii to your DSi, meaning you're stuck with the 100 Points that have been on your Wii account since about March 2007. THERE'S ALWAYS A SPARE 100 POINTS ON OUR WII. They sit there, silently mocking us.

    Anyway, the above slide, dug up by Siliconera from Nintendo's Media Summit presentation, highlights the point emphatically enough: you won't be able to transfer Nintendo Points.

  • Free Game: Meat Boy

    The guys who made independent favorite Gish and the previously featured atmospheric freebie Aether are at it again. This time they've crafted a game that's a little cute, a little gross, and hard as all hell. Meat Boy is, appropriately enough, a squidgy little cube of meat tasked with making his gory way through a gauntlet of fire, salt, and grinders to rescue his companion, Band-aid Girl from the clutches of the bastardly Dr. Fetus.

    It's a particularly nice touch that Meat Boy's levels are bundled in groups of five, of which only three must be completed to unlock the next set. You're all but sure to get hair-rippingly stuck on a few of them.

    Also, it wins bonus points for reminding me of They're Made Out of Meat. Check out the full game right here for free and let us know what you think below.
