General Gaming / 'CIMA: The Enemy,' For Gamecube or GBA??

« on: May 15, 2003, 05:52:11 PM »

I read the article on PGC about this, but they don't SPECIFY what system its for!  It's not the first time I've had this problem with their articles.  If Daniel or Rick or someone on staff reads this, it would really be helpful for us ignorant readers (i.e. me) if you would put a stat bar or something at the beginning of each article that at least specifies what system it's for.  Thanks!

Nintendo Gaming / Zoonami Speculation and Questions

« on: May 02, 2003, 11:41:21 PM »

First of all, is Zoonami a Nintendo 2nd Party developer?  I honestly don't remember.  

Secondly, has any news been released about their planned game for GC?  I know they've been uber-secretive about it, as is the Nintendo way.  I hope we'll get a taste of it at E3.  Do you think It'll be an entirely new game, or do you think it's the long-awaited sequel of one of Nintendo's legendary franchises of old.  We've witnessed a strikingly large amount of instances where Nintendo essentially "loans" it's franchises out to developers; I wonder if that's what they're doing with Zoonami.

Any thoughts or remarks on " GAME ZERO? "

General Chat / Tribute to Mr. Rogers

« on: February 27, 2003, 07:26:15 AM »

Mr. Rogers, the popluar host of the long-running children's television show, Mr. Roger's Neighborhood, died early this morning due to complications with his stomach cancer.  If any of you grew up watching his show like I did, you can understand that his shows opened up a whole world of imagination while at the same time, instilling moral values that will be used throughout life.  He will be sorely missed.

R.I.P.

Nintendo Gaming / Have the Gamecube SD cards been confirmed a no-go?

« on: February 23, 2003, 08:15:53 PM »

Way back towards the release of the Gamecube, Nintendo got alot of us some screenshots of a nifty memory card SD adapter it developed with Panasonic, I believe.  The possibilities of SD cards would be nearly endless.  It'd be like having a portable hard drive.  Sadly, I haven't heard even one mention of this for at least eight months.  Anyone know if Nintendo has totally scrapped the idea?  I understand that SD cards are expensive, but I think it's still an amazing idea.

Nintendo Gaming / Did SEGA can ALL the sports titles for Cube?

« on: February 12, 2003, 08:32:10 PM »

....Or just the licensec ones?  Not being a huge sports game fan (I'm of the mindset that I'd rather go outside and play the real game) I didn't really mind this announcement, save for the fact that I know this will really hurt GC in the console wars.  My question is this, though.  Will SEGA also can possible future iterations of games like Beach Spikers and SEGA Soccer Slam that don't carry a professional license (e.g.: NBA, NFL)?   Anyone have any insight on the matter?
