Almost 4 million people want to watch TV on their DS
J Cast Business News is reporting that the device has received almost 4 million pre-orders in Japan, causing us to thoroughly question the world around us and wonder if anything we took for a certainty before is still the same. This is just crazy-hard to believe on our end, because 4 million people is, like ... a lot of people. That's a third of the population of Buenos Aires and the number of e-mails Bill Gates gets every day.

Japanese gamers really want their DSTV
As usual, it looks like Satoru Iwata knows exactly what consumers want -- at least, those in Japan. On the heels of his announcement of more planned features and non-gaming uses for the Nintendo DS, the TV tuner accessory hit the official Nintendo website for preorder today ... and it was so popular that the overloaded servers crashed and burned. Sounds like it may be time for Nintendo to let a few outside retailers take on some of that preorder burden, eh?
Nintendo dusts off their TV tuner accessory
It's back now, and it has a firm release date of November 20th. If you have access to the 1seg digital audio/video broadcast system (which means you live in Japan), you can use this device to receive programming! You can also write notes and save them, which can be useful for sports scores. Nintendo will be selling this exclusively online for 6,800 yen ($59), and preorders start November 8th.
The sudden resurgence of this accessory was predicted by the Japanese magazine Gamelabo, whose predictions are usually not worth caring about. However, since this one turned out to be true, it may bode well for the other rumors they mongered in that issue: a new Square Enix RPG for DS starring Shonen Jump characters, and a PSP version of Dragon Quest IX. Or it could be that Gamelabo has a strict lies:truth ratio they have to keep up.
