Now is your chance to put your questions to Nintendo's legendary video game designer, Shigeru Miyamoto.

Mr. Miyamoto will be giving fans the chance to ask him the questions they really want to, including ones relating to Nintendo¹s most recent handheld console, the Nintendo DS, as well as the new types of game that Nintendo has created like Nintendogs, Animal Crossing: Wild World and Dr Kawashima¹s Brain Training: How Old Is Your Brain. Fans will also get to quiz Mr. Miyamoto on the eagerly anticipated New Super Mario Bros. DS.

Nintendo fans will be able to use this site in the run-up to the event to submit all of their questions to Mr. Miyamoto using the simple form below.

Shigeru Miyamoto joins us online at http://www.webchats.tv/webchat.php?ID=260 on 17th March from 7pm to 7.30pm to discuss his work.

We're reporting that Gamespot is reporting they heard some reports from the UK that Sony may offer older PSOne and PS2 games via download to the PlayStation 3. Hmm...

CDV Software Entertainment USA announced today that they will expand their 2006 gaming portfolio by publishing Night Watch, a tactical RPG for the PC. Based on the most successful Russian-made movie ever, a film that Director Quentin Tarantino described as "an epic of extraordinary power," the Night Watch game will ask players to take part in a millennia-old struggle of supernatural forces; a conflict of which ordinary humans are either completely oblivious, or in which they are unwittingly being used as pawns.

In the Night Watch universe, there are people among us who appear ordinary, but who are different; they call themselves "Others." These Others can channel magical power as devastating attacks and defenses. Those who support the forces of light are known as the Night Watch, while those that fight on the side of darkness are the Day Watch. These two sides have been locked in an epic battle with the common hope of one ultimately claiming a decisive victory and a right to rule the world.

Developed by Nival Interactive, the studio that created the critically acclaimed Blitzkrieg and Silent Storm series, Night Watch will ask players to take on the role of a recently initiated Other as he strives to comprehend the mystical powers he has recently discovered, and to make sense of the role he plays in this epic struggle that could very well determine the future of mankind.
