Despite reporting significant losses last year, Nintendo seem to be on the up-and-up after reports indicate that the company have earned over 170 billion Yen (around $1.6 billion US) in revenue over the past six months. This is in spite of the fact that they are reporting total losses to the tune of 215 million Yen, which compared to last year's much more hefty loss of 23 billion Yen, is a marked improvement.

We recently reported on the indie game Paranautical Activity being pulled from Steam after one of its developers threatened to kill Valve CEO Gabe Newell over Twitter. Since then, the person behind the threats, Mike Maulbeck - co-owner of Code Avarice - has stepped down from the company, selling his half of the business to another employee.
It appears the tide of sending death threats over Twitter is still quite strong, as Valve recently removed a game from Steam after Gabe Newell received death threats from one of its developers.

The current trend in digital entertainment right now is the ability to marry television, video streaming, gaming, internet connectivity and mobile technology all into one device. Microsoft's Xbox One and Sony's PlayStation 4 popularised the idea of an all-in-one system.

With the release of Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed Unity just around the corner, rumours of an Xbox One bundle being shipped with the game have been leaked, according to a report on GameSpot. While Microsoft have yet to confirm whether the bundle is genuine, details have emerged on VG Leaks, along with two screenshots advertising the console deal on Austrian retailer site, Gameware.
Do you believe in life after death? According to Blizzard Entertainment, the idea of resurrection is about to become a (virtual) reality in World Of Warcraft. In a post uploaded on the official blog, the upcoming pre-Warlords Of Dreanor content patch will allow you to essentially "undelete" your characters.
Today marks a significant occasion in the video game industry, as Nintendo are celebrating their 125th birthday. Beginning life on September 23rd, 1889 in Kyoto, Japan, the gaming legends (originally called Nintendo Koppai) started out as a playing cards company, which proved popular right up until the 1950's, when they shifted into other ventures, including a taxi company, a chain of love-themed hotels, a food company and even a TV network.
