British Snap Up Nintendo's Wii Fit Video Game (NewsFactor) 29. April 2008
Posted by Nerdmaster in : Online , add a commentNewsFactor - For a nation perhaps better known for a fitness regimen of darts and a pint, the news from Elspa Ltd.'s Chart-Track was particularly startling. The data-compilation service, which among other things tallies the sale of software titles, announced that last week Nintendo's Wii Fit was the top-selling title in the United Kingdom. The company's Mario Kart Wii dropped to the number-two position.

Besides the venerable Jake von Slatt, one of the other retro-tech fabricators whose work always tickles my brass is Richard “Doc” Nagy, who self-deprecatingly introduces his online moniker with: “Datamancer” is my dorkish, haXor-sexy, 1337 Interweb nickname. Yeah I’m a dweeb…” Honestly, I don’t know many dweebs with such serious shop chops. What is a dweeb, anyway?
Datamancer’s latest project is a brass-cased 22″ wide-screen LCD monitor on a marble and brass stand. It’s made to go with one of his amazing retro keyboards. He made the monitor as a prop in an upcoming film, an indy remake of Nosferatu. After the shoot, the monitor will be auctioned off on eBay.
Datamancer at Maker Faire!:
Richard Nagy will be at the Bay Area Maker Faire showing off his amazing wares. He is co-hosting “The Contraptors Lounge,” an outdoor Victorian sitting room and cabinet of curiosities. As one of the on-site activities, he and Jake von Slatt will be double-teaming the build of a special Maker Faire edition retro/steampunk keyboard in the Lounge. It may be raffled off or auctioned for charity at the end of the Faire. He and Jake will also be giving a talk, on the main stage, about their work. We’ll have more details on all this leading up to the Faire…
