Pixtudio, Stardock, and Nintendo

Wednesday, October 9, 2002 by Istari | Discussion: WinCustomize News

When Nintendo wanted to to encourage their customers to register with them, they came up with a novel idea: Let users create a Nintendo desktop.

So Nintendo licensed Object Desktop Lite which includes WindowBlinds + IconPackager + WinStyles integrated together.

And when they wanted to find the top suite designers out there, they picked Pixtudio to create a Gamecube desktop and a Super Mario Sunshine desktop.

In order to obtain the suites you must register your GameCube online. Units sold in Europe come boxed with a VIP 24:7 card which allows for registration online. Once signed up and registered with the special code on the card you can then obtain access to the Super Mario Sunshine theme immediately. It appears the GameCube theme is not yet available.

Congratulations to Pixtudio. They've made it to the big time.

So true alien ripley... Search and you shall recieve. God bless those who help us Americans out. Also as far as using.. I found that if you rename the extension to .wba windowblinds will see it and install it properly. Not sure if it works for the icons and everything (have that option disabled on my pc) but I believe it would.

Ah why not be nice to everyone here. This site is in German but dont worry, the themes come out as you see them in the Pixtudio pictures. Anyways, rename the extension to .wba and they will work like a charm. Enjoy!

THIS IS NOT BEING 'NICE TO EVERYONE HERE'. Pixtudio is a site member here and you are violating their [and Nintendo's] distribution/copyrights....

Awesome! Thanks a lot, Orvanis.

Damnit, just realised the Starfox theme isn't there.

Mr Eroticus Prime  .... do not provide links to sites violating Nintendo's [or anyone else's] copyright.

It's facilitating property theft....

Sorry Jafo, I thought it would be okay since Orvanis had and his link hadn't been removed at the time I posted mine.
