So it's over? That's it? Well I guess it's more then I expected but still, I was getting pretty hyped once I read the Mario Strikers and BW 2 news...

lol. The PS3 being delayed past the 06 holiday season is all Nintendo needs for a flawless victory.

I'm not sure if this has been posted or not but...

EA says the PSP is no fun

Quote
Third-party support is essential for the life span of any gaming product, so when you have a major publisher such as Electronic Arts calling you out, you better listen. EA executive VP and COO of worldwide studios David Gardner recently told MCV that Sony better get their act together with the PSP.

"I don't think Sony can afford to sit back. I think they still have things they can do with the price and performance of the machine-- things that they need to address."

Quote
Gardner points to the success of the DS as being about fun and accessibility, not about pure technical supremacy.

"There's no doubt that EA has historically bet more on PSP. I think we were excited by the technology, but the consumers have proven that actually what they want is fun. ... EA is putting more effort behind DS games -- and creative ones that really take advantage of the hardware."

And so, the bad press train keeps rolling for Sony.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:Rampage: Total Destruction for the Wii first Screen shot

I remember I liked Rampage for the N64. I liked it in 2D but I don't know how this game will turn out.... not getting my hopes up.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:Interview with Monolith Soft (Baten Kaitos)

« on: August 05, 2006, 07:35:27 AM »

Baten Kaitos is definately one of my favorite RPGs and GCN games. I'm really looking forward to BKII (origins). Also, a NamcoxNintendo RPG would be an instant purchase for me.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:Complete List of Wii Launch Titles

« on: August 05, 2006, 07:29:28 AM »

I agree, I think 2007 is when we'll start to see the 3rd party games really start to roll in. I do not fear a drought at all. Many 3rd parties were late jumpimng onto the Wii bandwagon, so by 2007 many of them should have some games ready.

I bet those 11 Xbox's sold were to people who saw the "0" in the last figures we got. They decided to buy one just to see a "1 unit sold" in the next weeks charts :p

TalkBack / RE:Ubisoft Announces Seven Wii Launch Titles

« on: August 04, 2006, 01:52:38 AM »

Wow, this is very good news Most of the games on the list do not interest me, but these are the type of games that will turn some non N-fan's heads. The way things are going, it seems pretty much impossible for the Wii to come in 3rd this gen.

General Gaming / RE:No SNK games for PS3 to 2009-2010

« on: August 02, 2006, 08:37:07 AM »

This very good news for me!! The ONLY reason I bought a PS2 was to get my 2D fighter fix (import PS2). Now there is absolutely no reason whatsoever to even look at a Sony system. SNK has always been my fav when it comes to fighting games. This gen is going to own KOFXII GET!!!!!! WII EXCLUSIVE!!!!

Nintendo Gaming / RE:Camelot to NOT make Nintendo games?! WTF?!

« on: August 01, 2006, 09:31:56 AM »

Oh man that's not good I hope they aren't droping Nintendo support completely. I hope it's like what BlackNMild2k1 said and they are just focusing on this for the time being.

General Gaming / RE:How important are graphics to you?

« on: July 31, 2006, 12:20:27 PM »

For the most part graphics in a game don't mean much to me. Most of the time I find myself avoiding the OMG HOT GRAFIX games because they're usually filled with too many cutscenes to show off the graphics... I also find 2D  to be more pleasing to the eye in most cases, though not all.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:When's the Wii launch date?

« on: July 31, 2006, 12:05:08 PM »

I think I'm going to pre-order an import Wii if I can get ahold of one. If it is not region free then I'll buy the US version on it's launch. Or if it launches in the US first for some reason like the DS, I'll get that first. Really I just want the Wii when it comes out no matter what the region.

I was thinking the same thing. Nintendo makes a HUGE splash at E3, a complete turn around from zero to hero in the Press' eyes. So now they're ending or downsizing it? I blame Sony.... and MS.

I've been pretty hyped about this game since it was first announced. I really liked DQ3 and Pkmn, so this game seems perfect!

I've never thought about that, but you know something, I bet you're right. Especially that limited edition Kasumi blue Xbox.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:The Capcom 2

« on: July 24, 2006, 05:23:56 AM »

I bought P.N.03 right around it's US launch so I payed full price for it. I think it was worth it though. It would be nice to see Vanessa in SSBB but I know it will never happen... ever. I've never played Killer7 but I'm tempted to after seeing the Heroes vid.

Sounds like Sony fanboy lies. They are trying to show that their PSP isn't the only thing that breaks.... Too bad it's still the only one.
