Capcom: “Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3″ – NY Comic-con, Phoenix Wright & Nova Trailers – 2011.10.13
[English]
With the release of “Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3″ next month, and the start of NY Comic-con tomorrow, Capcom releases some more cool videos of two new fighters. One that many fans have been anxious to see was Phoenix Wright. Because of the nature of his job as an attorney, no one had seen him fight physically before, until now, but Phoenix Wright does bring his well-known phrases to the UMvC3 arena.

After almost three and a half years of blogging about videogames, the net, and other tech-related subjects, I’m finally nominated. Woohoo!!!
I’ve been nominated a finalist for Best Latin Tech Blogger by Latinos in Social Media (LATISM), a non-profit, non-partisan organization promoting the social, civic and economical advancement of Hispanics here in the US.
I feel so proud.
Even before entering into the field of US Hispanic news media, I already knew there weren’t many people writing en español about technology, whether it’s computers, electronic devices, PCs, and videogames. This is still my goal today.
I got my first opportunity by writing for Impremedia’s La Prensa weekly newspaper here in Central Florida, thanks to former La Prensa editor Rubén Funes, in late February 2006. I got to go to E3 that same year (using my own money, of course), and wrote a special report about the event. It was a fantastic experience. Yet, I wanted to do more, and decided to open up this blog back in late July of 2008.
Another personal and professional achievement was in November 2010 when I became the first Freelance Blogger covering technology for Impre.com’s Piensa Digital, thanks to Jesús del Toro, current editor at Impremedia’s Rumbo Newspaper (in Texas), who is also the person in charge of Piensa Digital.
This year has been a great one in terms of blogging. Besdies my daily blogging activities here on ElMundoTech, I got to go to twice to NASA, one thanks to HispanicPRBlog to write a blog post on the newest space satellite used for our national security, and the second one thanks to Piensa Digital to see and write a post on the last space shuttle launch. I’ve also written posts for WiredLatinos.com.
I also got the attention of English-language media. A blog post written by Owen Good on Kotaku.com about my NASA trip and an uninvited guest caught the attention of many readers on Mario in Attendance at the Last Space Shuttle Launch post: [http://kotaku.com/5819677/mario-bids-bon-voyage-to-the-space-shuttle]. Being named on Kotaku made me really happy and proud.
Andrea Dee on WireBot.com wrote: “I think the guy is pretty creative in doing so. He wanted to do something different rather than just covering the liftoff. more like he wants some variety, so he posed Mario up! It would be great though, if this was real, the real Mario being an attendee of the event.” Jackie Spellicy on ZeldaInformer.com said: “his idea was definitely wonderful and the pictures will be cherished for years to come.”
There is still more to come: ”Major League Gaming” this weekend in Orlando, FL, and another event the weekend after. I’ll tell you more about it soon.
To vote for me, visit http://conference.latism.org/latism-awards/. On the inside page or frame, click on the box next to “Alberto Saldamando – http://elmundotech.wordpress.com/ (@ElMundoTech)” under “3. Best Latin@ Tech Blogger,” then, go down to “Done” and click on it.
Thanks in advance.
For now, it’s time to celebrate.
~Alberto.

Después de casi tres años y medio de bloguear acerca de videojuegos, Internet, y otros temas relacionados con la tecnología, por fin estoy nominado. ¡Woohoo!
He sido nominado para Mejor Bloguero Latino de Tecnología por Latinos in Social Media / Latinos en Comunicaciones Sociales (LATISM), una organización sin fines de lucro, no partidista, que promociona el avance social, cívico y económico de los hispanos aquí en los EE.UU.
Me siento muy orgulloso.
Incluso antes de entrar en el campo de los medios de comunicación hispanos en los EE.UU., yo ya sabía que no habían varias personas escribiendo en español acerca de la tecnología, ya sea computadoras, aparatos electrónicos, ordenadores y videojuegos. Esto sigue siendo mi objetivo hoy.
Conseguí mi primera oportunidad de escribir para el semanario de Impremedia, La Prensa, aquí en Florida Central, gracias al ex-editor del mismo. Rubén Funes, a finales de febrero del 2006. Llegué a ir a la E3 de ese mismo año (con mi propio dinero, por supuesto), y escribi un informe especial sobre el evento. Fue una experiencia fantástica. Sin embargo, yo quería hacer algo más, y decidí abrir este blog a finales de julio de 2008.
Este año ha sido un éxito al tratarse de blogs. Además de mis actividades diarias de blogs aquí en ElMundoTech, conseguí ir dos veces a la NASA, una gracias a HispanicPRBlog para escribir una entrada del satélite espacial más reciente utilizado para nuestra seguridad nacional, y el segundo gracias a Piensa Digital para ver, y escribir una entrada o ‘blog post’ acerca del lanzamiento del último transbordador espacial. También he escrito entradas para WiredLatinos.com.
También conseguí la atención de los medios de habla anglo. Una entrada escrita por owen Good en Kotaku.com de mi viaje de la NASA y un huésped no invitado llamó la atención de muchos lectores de Mario presente en el lanzamiento del último transbordador espacial: [http://kotaku.com/5819677/mario-bids-bon-voyage-to-the-space-shuttle]. El ser nombrado en Kotaku me hizo muy feliz y orgulloso.
Andrea Dee en WireBot.com escribió: ”Creo que el individuo es muy creativo al hacerlo; quería hacer algo diferente y no sólo cubrir lo del lanzamiento. Más como que él quiere un poco de variedad, así que hizo que Mario haga una pose! Sería muy bueno sin embargo, si esto fuese real, el verdadero Mario siendo un participante del este evento”. Jackie Spellicy en ZeldaInformer.com, dijo: ”Su idea fue maravillosa, y definitivamente las imágenes serán apreciadas en los años venideros”.
Todavía hay más por venir: ”Major League Gaming” este fin de semana en Orlando, FL, y otro evento el siguiente fin de semana. Les diré más sobre esto pronto.
Para que voten por mí: visiten http://conference.latism.org/latism-awards/. En la página interior o marco, hagan clic en el casillero en la sección “3. Best Latin@ Tech Blogger” y luego baje tal página hasta que vea “Done” donde se hace clic.
Gracias de antemano.
Y ahora es hora de celebrar.
