There are lots of three letter acronyms...NES...ATI...IBM...SNK...SDK...GPU...CPU...DVD? Matt just posted a blog not too long ago about the possible lack of DVD-playback for the Wii...

Maybe they have secured the rights to Atari 2600, Master System, and Neo-Geo games. o_0

Its obviously "LOL" for making us hype up over again and again.

Ps. its really "GEC" giant enemy crab

JonLeung · « **Reply #53 on:** September 07, 2006, 05:42:13 PM »

Pokémon LOL (the sequel to Pokémon XD).

NWC! Nintendo WiFi Connection!

Darkheart · « **Reply #55 on:** September 07, 2006, 05:43:35 PM »

Tony hawk downhill Lollerskatezorz ?

EDIT:

Actually that is a good one Bill but I dont see why they woulnt hold out their online service til their big day. To be honest tho for once, I think pricing info on VC would be an important announcement but nothin to steal the thunder of next week. Just to give us the plans and prices of downloaded games would be fine.

Artimus · « **Reply #56 on:** September 07, 2006, 05:49:39 PM »

I think NWC is the likely acronym as well.

wandering · « **Reply #57 on:** September 07, 2006, 05:49:48 PM »

Alright, Bill. You asked for it. Wandering's definitive guess:

3 letters: PSX.
That's right.
Final Fantasy VII for virtual console.

edit: I don't hear anyone gasping.

Darkheart · « **Reply #58 on:** September 07, 2006, 05:55:17 PM »

how can you hear anything on a forum if a forum has no ears D:

Most likely he meant that Super Paper Mario is moved to the Wii, however, could he have been teasing us, letting us know that a new Paper Mario RPG is being made for the Wii? You know it wouldn't be the first time Matt has hinted at crazy stuff

You know Spak, that's a very real possibility. First, he had that whole "read between the lines" thing. And then, in his response, he didn't write "Super Paper Mario", he just wrote "Paper Mario"..

Last time they did this it was the name.

So maybe they are axing somethings.
Or maybe they are telling people things they want but don't deem important.

If any of you aren't already in planetchat to discuss this, you should be ^^

JonLeung · « **Reply #62 on:** September 07, 2006, 06:09:40 PM »

I have the three letters!

It's one of these!

Unless they also mean numbers or weird characters or something. Otherwise, I bet it's one of those!

I could care less what a dictionary says.

I'm not even saying that we need hardcore investigative journalism, but any monkey with a keyboard can repost a press release. Which is all this "news" is going to amount to.

Crab fighting TECHNIQUE!!!!

Ok, so you don't consider PGC to be a journalist site either?

trip1eX · « **Reply #68 on:** September 07, 2006, 06:49:14 PM »

GTA or MGS

edit: eh just IBM.

Nick DiMola · « **Reply #69 on:** September 07, 2006, 07:07:32 PM »

What the crap!? The chips were in production 3 weeks ago, that's the big news!!?? What a waste, they could've told us that earlier, it's not that huge.

IceCold · « **Reply #70 on:** September 07, 2006, 07:09:37 PM »

Wow, this thread pales in comparison to the crazy PGC chat session... too bad it was futile.

stevey · « **Reply #71 on:** September 07, 2006, 07:11:09 PM »

lame!

Ceric · « **Reply #72 on:** September 07, 2006, 07:12:38 PM »

Wow that was disappointing. We all thought the chips where in production months ago.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #73 on:** September 07, 2006, 07:14:09 PM »

I'm not disappointed with this news, considering it means that the release date could be earlier than expected...

Anyways, the big news comes NEXT week...
