With the end of this year's championships at Wimbledon, EA Sports hands out some new screens for Grand Slam Tennis featuring only two players - the champs of the men's and ladies' singles: Roger Federer and Serena Williams.

Wedbush Morgan's exhaustive report on the effects of ancillary revenues on the console cycle contains a little nugget that suggests a Wii HD could convince consumers that it's "the last console they will ever need" and that it could seriously derail any chances of a PS3 comeback.

Finally stepping up to the plate in defense of video games is Electronic Arts exec Peter Moore -- and to Mr. President, Barack Obama himself, no less!
