It’s not all bad news though — Nintendo is starting up a new program this year, and it has the potential to be better. Also, more rewards are being added in February so you can spend up those coins.

Watch Sup, Holmes? live every Sunday at 1pm PST/4pm EST Last Sunday on Sup Holmes (now oniTunes), Rich Grillotti and Miles Tilman of Pixeljam Games tolerated my ridiculous blanket statements regarding art student stereotypes and bared their souls to me.

The really freaking cool part about it all is that every individual piece inside the world is virtual paper, folded up exactly to the artists’ specifications.
