Nintendo Wii Storage Solution Announced

/* Posted October 2nd, 2008 at 6:40am [Comments: none] */
/* Filed under Nintendo, Wii */

About a month ago, to address rumors surrounding what Nintendo would do about a storage solution for the Wii to hold all downloaded content, Nintendo America president Reggie Fils-Aime emphatically stressed that the answer would not involve a hard drive. Now it seems that Nintendo was true to its word. According to Satoru Iwata in a recent press conference, the Wii storage solution will simply use the SD card slot. Starting next year, gamers will be able to load games directly from the SD card slot (not like homebrewers weren’t doing it already) and will also be able to save downloadable content directly to the SD card as well.

How to Program HomeLink with Rolling Code Garage Doors

/* Posted October 1st, 2008 at 8:34am [Comments: none] */
/* Filed under Gadgets, How-To */

HomeLink is a universal garage door opening system comes in a variety of vehicles, usually as a luxury add-on. HomeLink can be found on a number of car manufacturers and works with a number of garage door manufacturers. New technology in garage door openers has resulted in a rolling code security system, obsoleting the old dip switch remote controls that could be “guessed” open by anyone willing to try all the combinations. Rolling code garage door remote controls don’t have any dip switches to set, instead they must “learn” how to open a garage door from the actual garage door motor unit.
