An article about Nintendo(wiiware) who are refusing to give royalties to developers until the set threshold of games has sold, if they don't reach their targets then the developers don't get any money.

Valkyria Chronicles sales jump in the US, tops charts in Japan

There was a thread about it on the gaming forums, but if you are browsing this thread during the podcast, it's just in case.

Great news here.

Here's hoping this will help Brad in sparking more interest in LBP:

Little Big Planet 1.12 Patch (Codename: Cornish Yarg) was released on the 16th.

This update addresses several outstanding issues with the game:

There is a new music player which lets players choose their own music from the XMB to play during create mode and in their Pod
Improved decoration mode makes it easier to customise your Sackboy
Option to delete all (unhearted) community objects and photos
Option to select whether to automatically collect community prizes and photos
A number of improvements have been made to make profiles more robust and to recover from certain errors
We now support Japanese and Korean IME for text chat.
Emitter prediction has been improved (this should help fast-moving projectiles e.g. in MGS levels)
The player proximity switch now has a ‘require all’ option in it
An option has been added to cycle between various level information when viewing community levels on the earth
Various LittleBigStore improvements

There were a few more improvements and changes that were not mentioned in the official posts.

Also, being released on the 23rd of April is the Free LBP DLC: Creator Pack 1.

It contains these new tools and objects (as well as tutorials for them):

Infinite lives checkpoint
Visibility tweak option on certain joint objects (to hide these in Play mode)*
Global settings object (to trigger lighting changes)*
Tetherless jetpack
Angle range proximity switch (additional functionality on proximity and magnetic key switches)*

*These features were made available through the Cornish Yarg patch (either by accident or otherwise).

Source: The PlayStation Blog - Sack it to Me - The April DLC Preview Edition

I know Brad was really wanting an Infinite Lives check point, and I can see a lot of people really using it.
