(Editor’s Note: Hey, what gives?! QuickJump QuickPeek? A day earlier than scheduled? Ha! Believe it! Though we’re one day early, that doesn’t mean we’re running short on news either. Now you might be asking… why publish a day early? Well, remember when we hinted last week that we’ll be introducing changes to QuickPeek? This is just one of them!)
We’ve got a whole slew of updates this week folks! We have the news across all platforms to get you guys jittery with excitement. A couple of games (and rumored games, even) have finally been confirmed. More details for other games have also been running around in wild abandon this week, so better make sure you get a grip on them.
There seems to be a trend in the homebrew communities too. Homebrew devs from both the PSP and Wii communities have released a bunch of emulators for their respective platforms. We don’t know why… maybe they all had a dream about emulators and suddenly tapped simultaneously into the world of ideas?
Well now. Dream or not, on to the news! Grab them green-skinned creatures and follow the exodus to the odd world of gaming!

PSP: The green-eyed monster… is so cute!
Time to take out your wallets, folks, you might want to have them at the ready. This week, SCEA introduced the Secret Agent Clank figurine, in anticipation of the release of the game on June 17. This Clank figurine doesn’t double as a backpack, but he’s still terribly cute. You can get yourself one by pre-ordering a copy of the game.
Another reason to have your wallets out is a new deal from Amazon, offering up Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7. The visual masterpiece is being offered for US 25.99, 14 bucks off the original price. Get ‘em while they’re hot!
