Entire NES jammed into its cartridge
This awesome NES casemod manages to squeeze a fully-functional Nintendo 8-bit console into the body of one of the system’s own game cartridges.
The Fami-Card started out its life as an original Super Mario Brothers
The console manages to cram in an NES cartridge slot, power and reset buttons, a pair of joystick ports and composite video and stereo audio outputs.
There’s something just a little mind-bending about a game cartridge that isn’t a cartridge at all, and instead is a console itself. If you think about the concept too hard, it might just cause a rift in the space-time continuum.

Tenchu 4 confirmed for the PSP

According to this Famitsu scan, Tenchu 4 will be coming to the PSP afterall. Rumors abound last month about a possible port of Tenchu: Shadow Assassins (the official title in the US) proved to be true — the game will be released in Japan on February 12th of next year for 5,040 yen. Ubisoft’s US press release for the game issued back in September indicated the game will be exclusive to the Wii, so no one knows yet whether we’ll get the port here in the States.

F.E.A.R 2 Pretty close getting banned in Australia
Surprise, Australia! A game featuring horror elements and a bit of the ol’ tomato sauce has been “refused classification” in Australia, which is as good as a ban.
Know what’s so maddening, both as an Australian and a fan of common sense? It’s not the fact the country lacks an R18+ rating. That issues been argued to death. No, it’s the inconsistency. Silent Hill, and now this, get the chop because (presumably in this case, since we don’t know exactly why) they’re violent horror games. And yet Gears of War 2 gets the OK when you are at times literally swimming in blood.

Just as your head begins to clear from downing your seventh pitcher of holiday eggnog, Electronic Arts announced plans to push off and catch a mad vert when Skate 2 nails its retail landing in January.

Bethesda Announces Fallout 3 Mod Tools, DLC
Bethesda plans next month to make available user content creation tools for its open-world RPG Fallout 3, with paid downloadable content for PC and Xbox 360 users coming in January.
The official editor is entitled G.E.C.K., or Garden of Eden Creation Kit. It will be offered free to PC players.
Even as recently as the month before Fallout 3’s release, the fate of its mod tools were in question, with marketing VP Pete Hines claiming that mods were “not on the schedule,” because “it takes a lot of time and effort.”
The new single-player DLC, on the other hand, has long been promised ahead of the game’s release, and is exclusive to the PC and Xbox 360 platforms; on PC, it will be distributed through Microsoft’s Games for Windows Live platform, which is integrated into the game.
Eidos Trying to Delay Negative Tomb Raider: Underworld Reviews
Tomb Raider: Underworld hit stores this week, and in an effort to craft a high early ranking on Metacritic, Eidos has tasked a PR firm to try and convince publications to hold off on their reviews if the scores are below a certain threshold (via Shacknews).
The story first broke when GameSpot U.K. journalist Guy Cocker posted on Twitter that he received a call from Eidos’ PR firm, saying that if Underworld was going to get a score below 8.0, they wanted the review delayed until Monday — three days after the game’s release on Friday. Videogamer247 then contacted the U.K. PR firm, Barrington Harvey, which confirmed they were indeed calling publications to try and quell negative reviews.
