Nickelodeon stocks the iTunes store with SpongeBob SquarePants’ iSponge
SpongeBob has been a lot of places in his eleven years; Nick TV, video games, audio CDs, the big theatrical screen, etc. It only makes sense in this Apple-friendly “i” world that we’d see more and more of the porous one hitting the downloadable world of applications. Nickelodeon UK obviously completely agrees as the network’s Digital Group recently packaged together and launched the latest thing in the iTunes store: iSponge. SpongeBobs new app, made perfectly for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad, has a number of under-the-sea features, including an exclusive SpongeBob SquarePants game, new classic video clips from the series added each week, the entire first episode of the toon, and sneak peeks of upcoming shows. SpongeBob forever!

Sonic returns at E3 2010 with Sonic Colors
This year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo has been a hot one thus far, especially if you’re a long time cartoon fan like us!

Sonic 4 late 2010 release date for PSN, XBLA, WiiWare, and iPhone
Sonic the Hedgehog’s upcoming fourth game, neatly titled Sonic 4, now has an official release date. Unfortunately, it’s no longer going to hit our consoles (and our dreams) this summer as originally touted, instead falling to “late 2010.” And while that’s certainly a bummer, it’s all for the better; allowing Sega’s dev teams even more of a chance to ramp up the game’s quality, “ultimately providing fans with an unrivaled, classic Sonic feel,” or so the official press release would have you believe. Just as before, the episode game will be downloadable on Sony’s PSN, Microsoft’s XBLA, and Nintendo’s WiiWare, with Apple’s iPhone and iTouch joining in on the fun. Check out the trailer and a full press release, right here (more… )
