Tattoos are one of my favorite methods of self expression. I feel they are deeply personal and can sometimes turn into real living and breathing pieces of art. Nerd tattoos are on the rise, and that got me thinking, if I were to get a nerdy tat, what would I get?

When you think of the Humble Bundle what do you think of? For me it's indie games by lesser known developers that can be purchased for as little as a penny. What I don't think of is giant purple dildo bats to club people to death with in games made by giant developers. But with the most recent Humble Bundle filled with THQ games, we've reached a moment where the platform might be a bit too big for it's own good. The bundle has lost it's humble.

While it may not seem like a big deal, signing up Unity for Wii U is a giant step forward for the publisher. How do you get more 3rd party developers? Allow more tools that they already know to develop more games.
In the agreement, Nintendo is allowed to "distribute the Unity development platform to its in-house, external, and third party licensee developers," while developers who use the engine should be able to bring their new and existing games to the Wii U audience.
The plan is to have the Wii U add on deployed to Unity's 1.2 million licensers by next year. Nintendo and Unity are working together to make that happen ASAP.
