So I go to Walmart (of all stores) to buy a new game for Wii for my 10 year old nephew(Not that I am a serious gamer, but for some reason waiving my arms in front of TV to play Wii gives me great joy!). Of the 100s of games out there, we finally settle on couple. We come home and find that the games are total dud- not much can be changed in the background and there aren’t many options either. So he is upset that I got him a ‘bad’ deal(being a computer geek and everything he thinks I know everything about everything ;). Then it dawned on me that I should have spent some time researching on Gamestop or Testfreaks to find what people are saying about the game before purchasing. I can not return that game as the box is now open. So I am stuck with a game that he probably won’t play again and a bill of cool $39.99 (not to mention upset nephew)…. Lesson learned!

I read in one of the blogs on Seattle API that Hulu is coming to PS3. Hulu as you know has a large collection of content in HD (encoded in h.264). It is possible to play that with Flash 9 thats available on PS3. Now in addition to being a gaming console, blue ray DVD, PS3 will also be your DVR! Cool!

The Nintendo Wii currently runs an Opera web browser and is capable of playing Flash 7 files within the browser as well. Developers have been writing applications for this and there are quite a few resource available. I came accross this site where quite a few resources are listed. Check it out.

Here’s the latest list- added a couple more devices.

Adobe web site lists Consumer devices supported by Flash Lite, but the site is pretty old. The devices are Flash 4, 5 and 6 based. Then there is a list of PDAs which is also pretty outdated. In recent times there’s been several announcements from Adobe on Flash Lite in digital home market and it’ll be good to see Flash Lite making its headway into more CE devices. I have a listing of several new devices (which are handful nevertheless) on this page.

Via Scott, iRiver P35 PMP will have Flash Lite 3. iRiver has been shipping devices based on Flash Lite for some time and the latest gadget has Flash UI as well as games. The device will also offer optional DVB TV tuner and WiFi. Check out the specs on iRiver home page. Looks like P35 is available only in Korea though.
