NWR Feedback / WHY?
« on: March 20, 2003, 03:52:37 PM »
You have to learn to read in between the lines a little.  It doesn't matter if it was from Wal Mart or EB, the thread was about the early release.

The forum software is not designed to handle avatars hosted off-site.

THE END



(I suppose someone's going to want me to give a "reason" for locking this so: It's become a flame war with all kinds of petty arguments and things getting thrown in.)

erm...We don't want avatars because it would needlessly suck up our bandwidth.  Everything else is just a side issue.

Nintendo Gaming / SP early at Walmart?
« on: March 20, 2003, 01:13:02 PM »
Well, if you would read Rick's post, he was also making calls on his end.  While the individual store confirmations help, we really need the info from sources higher up as well.

We weren't flat out ignoring you, we were doing crowd control in a sense.  Anyone can come in and say they got one and get everyone excited.  We were just telling people to cool off until we had things confirmed.

Well, thanks for the numbers.  Made the call.  We'll have a story up soon.

That doesn't make it an insult.  There's no reason you should expect us to trust you when we're talking about reporting the news.  We'll surely follow up, but having proof helps.

I don't think there's anything to say about this that hasn't been said. I would like to see where you claim we bashed IGN for it if you feel like sending me a private message or an e-mail. We are doing as much as we can to avoid being obstructive (such as the full page ads only showing once a day).

By the way, I finally got to the popularity contests last night, and they are a great addition.  

In other news, a reporter asked me to tell her about my Makuhita, and in response I said, "FIGHTS LIKE A GIRL."  :-D

Umm...That's not the way it seemed to me. I originally caught a Wurmple and a Cascoon.  The Wurmple changed into a Silcoon and then a Beautifly.  The Cascoon turned into a Dustox.  If it is time sensitive, it certainly doesn't show any visible signs of it.

Thank you Kero!  I've been trying to figure out why my system runs so unreasonably slow for a while now, and I think turning off some of the animated windows and junk may have done it!

Multiple Choice: What does the following quote mean?
"the general public ... in the South Hall"
A. Long lines,
B. Incredibly limited playtime,
C. A fire hazard,
D. All of the above.

Seriously though, this is going to be far more packed than E3. I think I'll start praying for the guys organizing the event.

Nintendo Gaming / How Do I get this?!!!

Scenario 1: You'll see these on sale in stores like EB soon.

Scenario 2: These are limited run and only given out to certain people.

I honestly don't know which is correct.

Nintendo Gaming / Online Game Boy Advance games via your Gamecube
« on: March 18, 2003, 10:03:09 AM »
Not sure that it's possible or likely, but I wouldn't mind it one bit.  An online connection would be great for trading Pokemon with Ty since I don't know any other 20-somethings in my area that plan on getting the game.

Well, I never thought I'd see the day.  I think at one point, this was supposed to be a launch title, but it's been so long I can hardly remember when we first started hearing about this game.

Nintendo Gaming / GBA SP or Gamecube?
« on: March 17, 2003, 01:28:27 PM »
This is what's considered a poll and it's against the rules.  We can't make your buying decisions for you.  Look at the games available for both and decide.

    If you read my impressions, you'll see that I listed a large number of the classic Nintendo games featured.  (I can't guarantee that I saw them all of course.)

    Anyone that thinks these games "aren't long enough" is off their rocker.  I was hoping to have my review done for today, but I'm not even close.

    Well, I don't know for sure, but I would think it has something to do with costs.  They couldn't have released a system with a light for $100 when the GBA first came out so they did what they could for the price-point, waited for the demand to lower costs, and now that the production costs are lower, they can introduce the SP.

    Nintendo is hosting an exhibition of the pocket to celebrate the European launch of the Game Boy Advance SP.

    POCKETS


    AN EXHIBITION FROM NINTENDO
    March 2003 - London's West End plays host to an extraordinary exhibition celebrating the humble pocket in all its forms. The exhibition is taking place to mark the launch of Nintendo's sleek new Game Boy Advance SP, and will be open to the public from Friday 28 March until the following Friday 4 April, at 51 Poland Street, London W1.


    Opening with an introduction from Wayne Hemingway, designer and co-founder of Red or Dead, this retrospective look at all things pocket incorporates a number of themed multi-media installations, which examine the pocket from a range of intriguing and surprising angles. The first section takes a stroll through time, tracing the origins of the first pockets and how their appearance and use has evolved. A second area takes a closer look at the role of the pocket in the world of fashion and clothing, from its early incarnations, to perhaps the ultimate in trouser storage facility, the cargo pant.


    Another part is dedicated to the representation of the pocket in film, music and literature, showing how this simple cloth device has infiltrated the rich cultural tapestry of the world. To really pique the curiosity of visitors, the pocket contents of famous people as they died is also described in detail, revealing the secrets of icons as diverse as Kurt Cobain and Abraham Lincoln.


    Pocket sized technology naturally features heavily, with examples of the first machines & gadgets designed (perhaps optimistically) to fit into pockets, through to the latest remarkable advances in miniaturized surveillance technology.  


    An area of the exhibition is dedicated to the Game Boy Advance SP, a genuinely pocket-sized games console, giving visitors a chance to try the machine, along with some of the best games available for the handheld. The critically lauded Game Boy Advance SP is designed to appeal to the latest generation of pocket-sized technology users, who demand high performance and dashing good looks from their tiny technology.


    The exhibition is open to the public from Friday 28 March which is the launch day of Nintendo's Game Boy Advance SP, until Friday 4 April, at 51 Poland Street, London W1. Doors are open from 11am until 7pm daily, 11am – 5pm Sunday, and entry is free.
