This is one of those times when we can actually use the -ton prefix and be damn sure it will come true

-ton = suffix.

anyway. i want games. i want wii.

funny story about new name: i was telling one of ps2 friends while passing the peace pipe about how the new system is called wii. and he starts laughing a lot, so i'm like damn, i didn't think it was that funny, must be the pipe. then he's like no, remember we used to call weed, weee. lol, then we both just started laughing about it uncontrollably. ahh, where's the wee yo! now i can say it again, although differently. Where's the Wii yo!

Didnt Nintendo put their own broadcast last year?

jasonditz · « **Reply #29 on:** May 05, 2006, 12:25:35 PM »

Pretty sure they just forwarded people to the Gamespot cast or something last year.

Yes, along with the teaser of Reggie saying, "Don't make me do it. I'll take your name!!"

yeah MJ, I hate to play the lame card here, but we do have some younger posters on these boards. I think it best if we don't encourage them, if only to save them from legal troubles.

kids: try before you buy

My high school social studies teacher once mentioned getting an "oxygen high" while showing us a yoga breathing exercise...

Awww, i was beaten in starting this thread, I didn't expect it to pop up this early.

79 hours to go! It's gonna get confusing in here during the event, a page will go by every minute and less than 5% of the posts will be coherent. There shouldn't be a problem finding a live steam of the conference, as both Gamespot and Gametrailers are offering free live streams. Gametrailers also has the conference going from 9:30am to 11:30am, can anyone confirm that it's really two hours? That'd be awesome, but I doubt it since the last few years have never been over an hour.

MaryJane · « **Reply #38 on:** May 06, 2006, 02:44:24 AM »

I've never been to Randalls Island, wait yeah i have, just not for a concert.
I'd never encourage anyone under the age of 18 to do anything, unless of course they're hot and 17

I hate all you people who are going to be able to watch the live feed, I don't have the luxury of staying home, or working in an office. oh well, i plan on watching it when i get home, then trying to read a few posts here, when things get bigger than i'm willing to dedicate a lot of time to there are a few posters who i just read their threads only to get the gist of whats been going on. You guys better stay coherent!

Requiem · « **Reply #39 on:** May 06, 2006, 02:59:31 AM »

Don't hate us cuz we're beautiful. *does obnoxiously cute blink*

Mario - It could be two hours seeing as how Nintendo is going all out. Plus, how long do you think it'll take for that lucky kid to play the Wii? I bet that whole ceremony takes at least 20 minutes.

Kairon - Oxygen high?! WTF? I remember when my international relations teacher whipped out a bong. Then the next day, whipped out a poppy seed plant.

He's was always talkin about the beast.....and how it was inside his head....

Fun class!

EasyCure · « **Reply #40 on:** May 06, 2006, 09:42:41 AM »

thats crazy dude. my art teacher senior year would take his 'special herbal medication' before school started sometimes and since i had him 2nd period every other day i could tell what kind of state of mind he was in. it was so obvious im sure the entire staff new, and just didnt care.

the best part about it was if my friend and i would bring our guitars in we'd just jam while he "made" the rest of the class do their art projects. that guy was so cool.

wandering · « **Reply #41 on:** May 07, 2006, 11:44:55 PM »

I had a science teacher in high school who went to great lengths to explain the nature of addicition, and how pot was better than most other drugs because it wasn't addictive.

When a bong was found, he then went to great lengths to convince us he didn't actually do that stuff, and that the bong was just a novelty gift.

Anyway. my prediction for the conference: Pokemon Snap. You all know you want it.

EasyCure · « **Reply #42 on:** May 08, 2006, 03:43:02 AM »

even better; DS Camera (gamboy camera 2.0) for use in upcoming mario paint :-D

Question. Why do we have a play by play thread if Gamespot is streaming it live and free? I imagine that anywhere people will be which allows them to repeatedly refresh forums for an hour will let them watch a video. ;-)

Crimm · « **Reply #45 on:** May 08, 2006, 08:42:05 AM »

Well if we can reply to the thread it could be both announcement by announcement and also our response to what we watch/read.

Artimus · « **Reply #46 on:** May 08, 2006, 09:17:00 AM »

What time does this start? (PST)

I don't know what PST is, but if it's australia or something like that then your on your own with the calculations. (what is it like +22 or - 6)

12:30 pm Eastern.

Can we please kill this thread and start a new one when the conference actually starts so people won't have to dig through pages of "OMG I'm so hyped up only XXX seconds to go!" posts?
