(via Panasonic) Ops, I'almost missed that the legendary turntables from Technics this year celebrates it's 35th anniversary (with over 3,5 million units sold Worldwide) and Panasonic has just announce the SL-1200 MK6 series to celebrate this incredibie achievement!  These new models will be released in February in Japan but, on 1st December, Panasonic released a "limited edition" with a gold celebration disc and a special booklet (there are only 1000 units produced) .
Dj wiki published a complete article about these technical masterpieces. Is still got my couple of 1200 MK2 (of course silver) bought 20 years ago after saving money for nearly one year and while I'm writing this I'm hearing an old techno record from Max Polo on ACV Records! If you got a couple of 1200 and you like modding this page is for you (what's better than a fresh mod to celebrate this anniversary?).

Konami has finally revealed the definitive details of Pop'n Music be-Mouse. This PC game packaged with a USB Mouse will be released in Japan on 27 march and gamers who will reserve it on Konamistyle shop will receive an orginal mouse pad. I'm not really into rhythm games but I think this optical mouse is pretty cool (even tough it got a resolution of just 800 dpi) and if the 9 buttons will be mappable this could be even more interesting!
