TalkBack / RE:Surprises from Nintendo in the Future
« on: November 08, 2003, 02:03:30 AM »
I'm with Rick on this one; the "suprise" sounds like Donkey Konga to me. It's the first thing that came to mind in reading the article. As far as I know, it hasn't gotten a formal announcement here in the states, so it only makes perfect sense. Not to mention the article says Iwata made this announcement of an unconventional product this past August, so it's kinda old news in that regard. Only a "suprise" to CNN Money I suppose.
As far as Mario is concerned, I don't really care if they don't release another one on the GC. As a long time Nintendo fan, I've long since learned not to get excited about stuff I haven't seen, and I haven't seen any visual proof of another Mario platformer to begin with, so I'm oblivious to it all. Launch game for the N5, show off the new hardware with (hopefully) a better Mario game and (hopefully) a better controller, sounds like a solid plan to me.
