Pokémania continues Stateside with the news that condiment giants Heinz are jumping on the bandwagon.

The two-month promotion will no doubt cause further playground scuffles.

Ever fancied breeding ferrets but were afraid to ask your folks?

Sega have announced Fish Life, a standalone virtual fish tank for Japanese folk too busy to look after the real thing. The system consists of a laptop-sized silver box with a flat touch-screen monitor. You can feed your virtual pets by tapping on the top of the screen, while prodding the front of the 'aquarium' will provoke plenty of fishy attention. It's fully customisable too, allowing you to fill the screen with all manner of marine life.
