Happy Dreamcast, The Beatles & Apple Day!



It's 09/09/09 day and that means a whole lot of awesome things in the pop world.

First, it's the Dreamcast's 10th anniversary. Happy Birthday DC! For those with PSP's, pick up Crazy Taxi, The Power Stone Collection or the latest Soul Calibur title to enjoy a little taste of the past.

Second, The Beatles Rock Band is released alongside their MONO/STEREO CD remasters. Very awesome stuff indeed!

Finally, the big curiosity for PSP owners is Apple's 2009 iPod Keynote. They unveiled several new price points and a new iPod NANO which looks delicious. Good news for SONY is that the iTouch line wasn't updated at all. Rumours of a 16GB iTouch pricing at $199 were silenced today. The old 8GB models will be priced at $219 Canadian while the next step up, a 32GB model is at $329 Canadian.

There you go SONY, you're still clear to release your overpriced 16GB PSPGo at $249. ARGH!
