I don't like news about news that's about news that's about some mailbag.

Get real.

Maybe Nintendo will announce a new coloured Game Boy. OOOH, JIGGLY PUFF PINK. BUY IT. I was burned over the whole Megaton rubbish, I don't expect much anymore from these so called 'huge' upcoming announcements

*megaton sirens settle down*

Meh, its probably just a new "EXCLUSIVE!" F-Zero screenshot or new section to thier site -__-

But if this turns out to be the Mario 128 unveiling, then im gonna need some nappies

Maybe Nintendo planned to release MEGATON! last year, but noticed how people put their hopes to the clouds, so Nintendo decided to delay it, eh?

I bet its a new Cube color, they has always fixed the sales problems...

Seems like that whenever there are rumors of a big announcement, nothing comes.
The actual big announcements seem to come out of nowhere with no warning.
If I recall correctly, that was the case with the Resident Evil series going Gamecube exclusive, Square's return to Nintendo, and the Capcom Five.

omfg! Grey Ninja knows something!! Hmmm, i bet i can figure out what it is....

*puts detective hat on*

"OMFG!... not saying much mroe than that." can be interpreted in a number of ways. The "OMFG" could stand for a great company, for example Nintendo. The "!..." definately stands for a buyout, most likely by nintendo. The "not saying much" could mean Capcom and Sega, since capcom havent been saying much about Dead Pheonix, and Sega havent been saying much about Virtua Fighter Quest. "much more that that." could possibly mean Sunday, for some reason thats too complex for me to explain.

So, in conclusion, NINTENDO ARE BUYING SEGA AND CAPCOM ON SUNDAY!!!!!!! 111 1inoneone

Actually I was referring to the insistance of people about ressurecting Megaton at the slightest opportunity.

AND SO ENDS ANOTHER PGC MYSTERY!

Post by: SuperLink666 on July 19, 2003, 06:31:20 AM
No need to get excited just yet folks. Nintendo doesn't like hyping games too early because remember how pissed off we get when they get delayed? They only show games at the most 5months before release. Probably something worth checking back tho

  I actually thought the GCN just referred to GameCubeNetwork, and it would be an announcement about the site, but eh.

You're right...it's their site (GCN = Gamecube Network) not the Gamecube (GCN = Nintendo Gamecube) that they're referring to...duh.

All of you are getting exited over nothing, it's probably another hoax like the whole Megaton thing.  

I'd like to be proven wrong though.
Title: MASSIVE news coming 4 gamecube
Post by: mouse_clicker on July 19, 2003, 11:00:07 AM
Megaton wasn't a hoax thought- the magazine that started it all had a lot of fans of a particular manga or anime or something, and a game based on it was coming to the Gamecube. The magazine said it was "big news", meaning big news for fans of the manga or anime or something, but everyone else blew it out of proportion into some end-all-be-all action by Nintendo.

Is it too hard for you guys to just wait it off another day...or do you guys always have to be wise-asses about the megaton thing...it gets old pretty quick.
Title: MASSIVE news coming 4 gamecube
Post by: akdaman1 on July 19, 2003, 12:22:55 PM
i doubt its the megaton ........its probaly a exclusive or something

and it probaly aint mario 128 cause nintendo wouldnt let a site release the first info on its biggest game this year
Title: MASSIVE news coming 4 gamecube
Post by: Smadte on July 19, 2003, 12:54:54 PM
Mario 128 will be delayed until the release of N5, as will Metroid Prime 2, and maybe Starfox Armada. That is my prediction. So, this megaton announcement on sunday's probably about the release of some new SNES quality games on Gamecube to fill that gap. Or maybe they'll announce that they're going to focus attention on software rather than hardware, and then reveal their new system: GBASSPXtreme. Or maybe they'll announce some WHOLE NEW franchizes that will be a big part of Nintendo's 2003 lineup.

... b.s.

I think they were referring to their own site GameCubeNetwork, not GameCube.

Interesting, but after the Megaton fiasco, I am not holding my breath.

Heh, the article at GCN has been removed. Its a CONSPIRACY!
Title: MASSIVE news coming 4 gamecube
Post by: Fish on July 20, 2003, 02:13:44 AM
And Gaminids news was that they are going multiplatform, so this can only mean one thing, Nintendo payed them for not revealing MEGATON! Clever...
Title: MASSIVE news coming 4 gamecube
Post by: Termin8Anakin on July 20, 2003, 02:58:09 AM
MEGATON!!!

I don't think this news is even regarded as massive at all!
Meh, sunday is fast approaching, and its most likely nothing.

Didn't you read the rest of the newspost? The part that says, "PS All your hit are belong to us"....
Title: MASSIVE news coming 4 gamecube
Post by: kennyb27 on July 20, 2003, 05:09:32 PM
Uh oh, the massive news has been postponed.  That can only mean one thing:  THE MEGATON HAS JUST GOTTEN BIGGER AND BETTER!!  uh...anyway, this looks nothing more than something for the site.

Post by: nolimit19 on July 20, 2003, 05:55:52 PM
i dont know how much more my heart can take of this. its been broken by the megaton so many times.

Personnaly I only trust news from IGN and Planetgamecube. If news from other sites is true, then these two sites will be reporting it soon enough. Other sites are like video game tabloids. Anyone tells them anything and it gets reported.

Post by: DRJ on July 21, 2003, 05:55:03 AM
And the big announcement is........

New forums for their site.

that's it, nothing important at all.

No Megaton
Nintendo isnt buying out M$ and Sony
No new games announced

Nothing...

Title: MASSIVE news coming 4 gamecube
Post by: StrikerObi on July 21, 2003, 11:53:10 AM
When this site said "Huge GCN" news they mean "Huge GameCube Network" news. It's highly misleading. This isn't about GameCube at all.
