Remember kids, just because we're all so smart and cool that we find out stuff on the 'net BEFORE most normal consumers do, doesn't mean the Konga controller won't be it. What do I mean by this? Nintendo hasn't, as far as I know, made any real announcements about the controller in AMERICA. Of course, in Japan, it's being shown off and whatnot. But I haven't seen them announcing it here.
What did someone point out? Some bigwig at Nintendo said "You can't beat it out of me?" Beat? Beat drums? Haha, Mistar Nintendar man...

NOT IN AMERICA.
I think America and Japan are two different countries.
There are people in America who STILL ask questions like "Can PS2 games be played on the Gamecube? Doesn't Sony make the Gamecube?" And you think they know about the Konga controller?
Yea ok.

ENTIRELY.
Nintendo is a big name company, and when they want to reveal a major product, they do so with press release. They have one of their bigwigs trot out to a room full of reporters, they reveal the product, answer questions, show a demo, and finish the interview.
You'll notice that if Nintendo is going to reveal a product that they've "never made before" that chances are they will PROBABLY back it up with A) a press release and B) a marketing push.
You forget that the only reason we know about the Konga controller is because it's being released in Japan and we have access to websites that can get the information about it and show it off to us.
Nintendo doesn't consider that kind of table-scrapping a press release. And if they are so confident in the product, and if they are going to surround it in mystery by saying it is "something we've never done before," you can bet they are going to open with a bang on the product.
So a few measly pics of a controller and some blurry screenshots from a game that isn't even translated because it's in ANOTHER COUNTRY is going to cut it for them as a viable form of press release.
It's like when a game gets released in Japan and we know about it, and then two months later Nintendo says they are "releasing a brand new game in America!" like it's something we've never seen before, and we end up seeing that it's just their news release of the translated game we read about two months ago. Just because we knew about it in advance doesn't mean that it's been officially revealed to the public.
But whatever. If I'm right, I'm right, and if I'm wrong, I'm wrong. But I really wouln't put too much stock into Nintendo. We've seen time and time again that they delay products and release things that we knew were coming.
So I really, REALLY wouldn't get your hopes up for something truly astounding, like an online strategy.

Interesting ideas. . . I don't think it's the Konga controller. . . are we even sure that game is coming out in the US? It could be an online plan, but it doesn't initially strike me as being that. I dunno, really. We'll see.

-When they revealed that they would have a press conference back in August, the conference took place in Japan and they said it would be revealed in Spring 2004
-If it was indeed the Konga controller, then a Nintendo of America representative would have made the announcement about the showing; however, it was made (again) in Japan and commented on by Nintendo's president Satoru Iwata (no that's not Nintendo of America's president for those who don't know).
-According to CNN Money Nintendo has not told the American senior executives what it was.
Oh, and let's not all attack Omen for this idea (knowing he was sarcastic to begin with) because the online idea was even thrown out by Jeff Brown, vice president of corporate communications for EA.

If they were indeed making a system that played old games, you would have to get the old hardware that played the games. Nobody makes the parts for NES or Super NES anymore.

Gee God forbid they, I don't know, MAKE NEW PARTS. Actually I believe both consoles were still manufactered in Japan until recently. I would buy such a device on the first day of release. I've never had an NES so it would be cool to be able to play everything without hooking multiple devices to the TV. However to make such a device it would have to be pretty big to accomdate the different controller ports and cartridge slots.
Post by: vudu on December 02, 2003, 07:14:15 AM
i remember reading a while back that nintendo stopped servicing the nes at the beginning of this year, so it might make sense (in a weird nintendo sort of way) that they would stop repair work on the nes because they were going to release a new console that could play those games.
also, a "new and exciting product" would most likely be a console/controller/etc rather than a game. i don't consider a game to be a product. maybe that's just me. or it could be an issue with translation.

Or maybe it was MMO shooter, but i do remember hearing it was online, in rumor mills, of course.. Oh well, enough rumor mongering for the day. My other question for those that say its too late to implement online this generation-why? Cant the network just rollover to the N5?
Yeah, why is Nintendo making so many games LAN capable? They didn't build the feature into the GameCube like PS2 or X-Box, and now they're pushing it like crazy. Imagine if they made software that let older GameCube games go online, like Smash Brothers. The only thing that would hinder Nintendo going online is the user base, but with the PS2's user base you would expect a higher percentage of online players, yet it is relatively small. If someone can make a killer app for online, it's Nintendo.

well, u know how u said that its the donkey konga controller? and that "nobody" knows about it in the us really except people who found it out on the net. well, sorry to break it to u, but there are things called "magazines". whoa. like, donkey konga was mentioned in egm already and im sure other magazines as well. people dont find things out at "the OFFICIAL" announcement. and the thing is revolutionary as nintendo has stated so it cant be the controller because the samba de amigo controller has already done it. so ya.
but i wonder what the new product really will be. as u all know(or i hope u all know) it is hardware that is not related to the gamecube or gameboy or console gaming. so it cant be the next console. as mentioned earlier, it IS probably a kitchen utility of some sort.

First, the Gamecube does already have the ability to handle online play. It's about as equiped as the Playstation was when it first came out. Granted, they didn't go as far as Microsoft and throw in a NIC card, but they did at least leave their options open. Microsoft from day one has been upfront the online gaming is a huge part of their future plans (which was not alltogether stupid of them). Therefore, while online play seems unlikely for the GameCube its still as technically possible as it was on the PlayStation.
IF Nintendo plans to stay in the console game (which I believe they will) then certainly they understand that online gaming is the future. Yet Nintendo seems like the kind of company that likes to keep their cards close and watch what everybody else does for a while. Think about it, you've got Sony and Microsoft both fighting to build up online gaming arenas. Both of them are King Kongs in their own right. Sony has the market while Microsoft has the money. If I were Nintendo I would sit back, watch them make their mistakes, and then build my own arena that trumps both of them. With that in mind we can then begin to build what an online gaming arena in the Nintendo world would look like.
First off, I think they will follow MS and build a centralized, closed system. This is what MS did right in that it provides a standard simplified experience for every game. I am an XBL member and I can tell you the experience is awesome. There are some things that you go into every game knowing how to operate. Voice chat is also amazing. You don't know how awesome it is until you frag someone and hear them cry out your name in despair 100 miles away. On the other hand, I think that they will take from Sony's model a little bit and keep pricing at a per/game level. I think that Nintendo would also learn from Sony's mistake and make broadband a requirement from the beginning while following Sony's lead in letting publishers have more control over each games online capabilities.
I dunno. It seems unlikely but I can see Nintendo doing it. They've had enough time to build up the infastructure to do it with, and I like the direction I see Nintendo going. I also think that Nintendo would be super quiet about this and then introduce it with a ton of fanfare. Then again, knowing Nintendo it could just be a cross between Pokemon & Dance Dance Revolution ;-]
Post by: Rhoq on December 03, 2003, 11:21:25 PM
While this might be a bit crazy, I think Nintendo has found a way to harness the power of lightning bugs to provide a cheap, stable and endless power solution for the next generation of GameBoy (yes, I'm kidding). Seriously, I am thinking something a little larger than the GBASP, with the processing ability and graphical power to play any disc from the current GameCube library. The only thing I don't see is how they could fit all of that inside a tiny case. Heat and battery life would be a huge issue.
If Nintendo is able to pull that off and beat (or at least match) the MSRP of the PSP, Nintendo will secure their place in the handheld market for many years to come. This new handheld could take advantage of 320+ GameCube titles already available at launch, making them much more appealing than the PSP - which would be building it's library from scratch. This would also fullfill the "Portable GameCube" fantasy that many people around here seem to have.
I know this sounds far-fetched, but is it, really?

One other possible speculation about spring. It could be Mario 128... Nintendo keeps talking about how revoloutionary the gameplay will be, and how they didn't want to show it at E3 for fear of getting ripped off.
Post by: Ian Sane on December 04, 2003, 06:35:45 AM
That doesn't necessarily mean anything. Nintendo says that almost EVERYTHING they make will "revolutionize" the industry. I believe the e-Reader was supposed to revolutionize the industry.
Good point about online already being done and thus can't be revolutionary but that doesn't completely eliminate the possibility of online being the new product. Nintendo may very well feel that their own online solution is unique and thus is revolutionary. If they've found a way to make online gaming profitable without making the consumer pay-to-play then that would be revolutionary.

I agree with that, like when Nintendo was hyping the connectivity bonuses in Prime and Fusion, which were disappointing to say the least. That said, I don't think Nintendo would make such a big deal about something that really is ordinary. They would get bad press after E3, and it wouldn't be worth it in the first place. The best idea is to forget out the new product and wait 'till E3. Nobody wants another Megaton debacle again.

true. but did nintendo ever state "we will not release a new version of the gameboy advance"? i don't believe so.
They said its NOT the next GB or console. Okay? Now, i 'm not dismissing it as a possibility, but since we're saying Nintendo said no to online, they also said no to that. They did say they wont go online until its profitable. Maybe, just maybe they've been doing work behind the scenes, and they figured out their plan. Is that impossible? Yup.

Thing is recently they did mention that the new product was going to be "transcendant" or some other obscure vague word. Since the iQue was released I think their mystery item is some kind of Cross maybe between the iQue and Gamecube. I dunno but that's my 2 cents.

Im going to take another wild guess. It will be a controller/gaming device that you can take anywhere, all you need is the controller. When you 'turn on' the controller, a screen appears out of nowhere, like a hologram in the air in front of you, and that's the 'screen' you use to play games on. You insert mini-cds, or cartridges (games) in a slot at the top, or at the back of the 'controller/console'. It plays GBA games, GC games, and maybe games of a new type designed specifically for that device.
Just think how cool it would be when your in class, the teacher wanders out of the room, and everyone pulls out a controller from their pocket and screens appear out of nowhere, and you all start playing Nintendo games. Maybe even wireless multiplayer gaming could be incorporated into it somehow, wow my head just exploded with possibilities.
Would that be cool?

Not technologically feasible at this time.
The screen is all well and good but calculating holographic images in real time would take a lot more processing power than you're likely to muster by the next generation... let alone spring.
Back when I did my thesis it was on computer generated holography... at the time I figured you'd need something in the multi-teraflops range to make it feasible... and that was monochrome.

This rumor was started by Nintendo, if I'm not mistaken... I can't remember the last time that happened. What are you guys talking about? I mean look at this, people, Nintendo, king of secrecy, hyping up something it hasn't released yet? Since when has Nintendo ever thrown us a bone?
It's also definitely not gonna be the Konga controllers. Why? Simple reason... if it was, they'd have hyped it in Japan too before it was released... but they didn't.
This is just a wild guess, but the "heterogeneous" thing has me thinking it's PC-GC connectivity. Think about it. Hard drive, internet, firmware patches and online multiplayer... all in one fell swoop.

That would play into the Apple/Nintendo rumor thats being thrown around.
