I feel like I've just had sex with every woman I ever wanted to have sex with.
I think E3 will kill me.

Maybe the horrible truth is that the Rev will have a Chibi Robo type accessory that will roam around your house plugging itself into your electrical outlets.

"Don't worry, Ian--it looks to be 2D."

It looks kind of 2.5D to me.  The view is clearly overhead but in some shots they don't quite look like sprites.  It's cel-shaded.  That right there suggest polygons.

It'll be good to have the 2D gameplay stay alive but I HATE the way polygons look compared to sprites.  Sprites is part of the charm.  New Super Mario Bros sounds like it will be awesome but I personally think it has a really boring look and style.

You also haven't looked at it in several months because you're scared of spoilers.  The game looks excellent now.

Well I think they haven't shown anything on the Revolution because Sony hasn't shown anything on the PS3, so now we have to wait anothe month+1week or so 'til E3.

It's cel-shaded though. It's the closest possible thing to sprites, without being sprites. Plus, with sprites you can't have the wonderful effects that only cel-shading can produce.

"Games like Mario, Zelda, Metroid will all look better than ever. But those will not be the only types of games. Stresses innovation. Essential to reach new audience: younger people, older people."

I get this nagging feeling reading this that it means the new ideas are for the non-gamers and the sequels are for the existing gamers.  I've noticed this so far with the DS.  The new ideas from Nintendo are stuff like Brain Training, Nintendogs and Electroplankton - clearly designed to get those new gamers on board.  Meanwhile the stuff more for the existing gamers are games like Mario Kart and Advance Wars.  Those games are good but that's not enough.  I don't want all the new ideas to be targeted to non-gamers and so far on the DS that's the case.

Yes, Ian, take our words as fact. It does look great, and supposedly plays even better.

And guess what? The controls are entirely mappable.

There are new games coming...wait til E3!!!  Been waiting to say that. :P

I think there will be new games...even if they have a familiar franchise attached to them.  Sometimes Nintendo thinks it'll be easier to sell a new concept with a familiar face.  We'll just have to wait and see.

Does it really matter if Nintendo makes the innovative, yet hardcore focused game? Does it matter as long as it's well made and fun?

Besides, Miyamoto has already garunteed a new IP for REV launch, so I see no use in complaining.

I didn't actually play it, but isn't Canvas Curve pretty far afield from the normal Kirby games?

I just wanted to say that using PlanetChat to share news as it happened was an awesome success!

And now all that was said is lost forever.  I hope you're happy.
Why must all things be so bright? Why can things not appear only in hues of brown! I am so serious about this! Dull colors are the future! The next generation! I will never accept a world with such bright colors! It is far too childish! I will rage against your cheery palette with my last breath!

So what you are saying is new comers have to be shafted. They are not "real" gamers so they have to go to the back of the bus. Only us existing "real" gamers should ever get the good stuff. Lose the xenophobia Ian.
