Everyone loves Chocobos. Really. Some may like Moogles more for the fluffy pompom on their head, but they still love Chocobos. Thankfully,
Square Enix hasn't forgotten the sprinting bird and how fun it is to race them. Good news,
Chocobo racing lives on in
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: The Crystal Bearers. Now we've got more reasons to keep an eye out for the Wiixclusive title. Video after the jump.

Digital downloads seem to be the way of the future, looking at the
current landscape of the gaming industry now. Even analysts say that
retail
will be overtaken by digital distribution
in a mere three years' time.
Nintendo's big boss,
Satoru Iwata, begs to
differ, however. To him, digital distribution will sure be a hit -- but
not till 20 years later.

In a time of high-definition graphics and consoles that can give PCs a run for their money, the Wii has stood out as the little console that could. In the face of developer
Infinity Ward's drive for bigger and better cinematic gaming experiences, however, it's the little console that couldn't.
