Plus, he also thinks that Nintendo will drop the GBA port for cheaper production costs.





Tech news moving over to Thoughts on Tomorrow

9 04 2008

Yesterday, I registered a blog, called Thoughts on Tomorrow. The idea was to let that blog be everything not gaming/tech and Apple – related. However, I felt that Gaming Central wasn’t the right place to post tech news after a while. I will be moving tech news to http://thoughtsontomorrow.wordpress.com





Gaming Central icon for your iPhone/iPod touch

6 04 2008

If anyone reads this blog, and has one of the above Apple devices, you can now add this site to your homescreen. However, you can’t just click “Add to homescreen” in the bookmarks menu. I’m afraid WordPress.com doesn’t let you do that. Here’s what you have to do:

  • Go to http://www.scm.keele.ac.uk/webclipr/#_home on your iPhone or iPod touch
  • Scroll down and press “Create Web Clip”
  • Now, enter in what you want to call the bookmark. I recommend “GC”.
  • Now enter in the address of this blog. http://gamingcentral.wordpress.com
  • Now, enter in this tinyurl in the images slot and press create: http://tinyurl.com/5pqbk9
  • Follow the instructions and press add to home screen on the bookmark icon on bottom of your screen.

Now, you’re all set! The icon is a little NES controller. I felt retro. :p
