A small treat from Mix-Core.

NCL development house Mix-Core has released a single screenshot of its newest project, known only as "2" right now.

No information is provided with the screen, but the file path contains the words "Hakofune" and "neji_T2"...could be a clue. The art style is also clearly different from Rebirth's nature themes. Kudos to Quest17 for telling me about this little treat.

Gamers.com takes a trip down memory lane for the 15th anniversary of the Nintendo Entertainment System.

While it may seem like only yesterday, it's certainly been awhile since Super Mario Bros. was the height of technology. However it's time to traipse down memory lane once more as Gamers.com has a fond look back at the system that signified the resurrection of the Gaming Industry.

So pull out your vinyl, comb back that mullet, break out those horrible glam-rock music videos and rock on to the NES' 15th anniversary!

Direct feeds (i.e. not recorded by some guy with a video camera) of Space World movies!

Nintendo enthusiasts everywhere were quick to download any Spaceworld movies of Gamecube and GBA, yet for the most part this was either pre-edited footage or non direct-feed. Thanks to Computer & Video Games, FULL length videos of the Gamecube demonstrations have just made available to the public.... Read more...

IGN cube gives details about the forthcoming GameCube developers conference.

Remember that "Developer Conference" that Michael Rubinelli of THQ mentioned a little while back at IGNCube? Well the boys over there have shed some more light on this mysterious event.

Evidently Nintendo has a date in late November in mind, although there is no day set in stone. Here's was IGNCube had to say about it:

Core Magazine gets an interview with Hiroshi Imanishi (not Yamauchi). Imanishi calls the PSX ad campaigns "novel promotion".

Our friends over at Core Magazine snagged a little interview with Nintendo's Managing Director: Hiroshi Imanishi. He talks about Nintendo's past successes and (hopeful) future conquests, too.

Here's a sample of the wonderful goodness:

Question: Do you think Nintendo has been deprived of the same market opportunity as when you launched the Famicom (NES)?

IGN Cube reports on Capcom's plans to support all systems with online games that are compatable with each other. Is a Capcom's Nintendo vs. Sony far off?

Capcom announced 2 days ago that any of their upcoming games that support internet play will be going to all 5 systems. This is great news. Also, all the versions of the games will be able to play against each other, so internet gaming won't be segregated by system.

The company is moving forward... Read more...

IGN Cube reports on Capcom's plans to support all systems with online games that are compatable with each other. Is a Capcom's Nintendo vs. Sony far off?

Magic Box has just posted some new artwork and screenshots of Megaman EXE heading to Gameboy Advance. The images show off EXE's RPG style of play namely scenes of characters conversing and a look at one of the menu-screens, which is decked out by those lovable "hardhat" characters that populate ever...

Kosta links some shots of and tells us all about The Jungle Book which will be coming to every next-gen platform you can think of. LINKS TO PICS

In some stellar reporting on Daily Radar's part (yes that was sarcasm), news has broken that Disney's The Jungle Book is set to get a current and next-generation outing by Ubi-Soft. Instead of being another adventure or platformer, the game will be 'dance' orientated and will appear on Playstation, Playstation 2, PC, GameCube and Game Boy Color. Ubi-Soft's description of the game:

GameSpot and Nikkei Computer get jiggy with Square...

In news originating from Nikkei Computer in Japan, GameSpot reports that Square has apparently signed on as an official third-party Xbox developer, and the legendary RPG developer is already working to bring Final Fantasy XI to the system. So why should this interest us Nintendo fanboys (and fangirls)?... Read more...

Volition sacrifices graphics for gameplay and is thinking about developing for the GameCube.

You may have already heard of Volition. They're responsible for Summoner, the first Playstation 2 RPG, and they're hard at work on Red Faction, a first-person shooter for PS2 and PC. They stand out as one of the first developers to accomplish anti-aliasing on the difficult PS2 hardware. In an interview with GameSpot, Philip Holt, Volition's director of development, touched on a few interesting issues, including possible GameCube development:

The dojo returns from nothingness. Still no word from RareNet.

After a noticeable absence, Nintendojo has ended its offline down time & resumes regular updates today. Unfortunately though, Nintendojo FR, Dojo Wrestling Monopoly and RareNet are still kaput though we hope they'll be back soon. (RareNet I know is working hard on this, but having some problems -don't... Read more...

Wow! IGNCube updated! This doesn't happen very often folks...

IGNCube has burst out of retirement again to bring a nifty (albeit brief) interview with THQ's vice president of product development, Michael Rubinell. Mr. Rubinell definitely seemed enthusiastic about Nintendo's future (aren't we all) and had some interesting things to say. Here's some of the highlights:

Tendo Project gets the skinny on Powerful Pro Kun Pocket (a name that will certainly change should this title see American shores).

Konami have announced that they'll be bringing their popular Baseball series to GBA Powerful Pro Kun Pocket. KCEO will be doing the development duties & the game should be available at launch. The US hasn't seen any previous installments of the baseball series, so no reason to think we'll see this one. There's not much of a market for "Super Deformed Sports" I guess. I'd play 'em! Anyone remember Super Dodgeball? Anyway, here's a screenshot.

Nintendo releases info Gameboy cell phone adapter. This may ultimately be Japan only, but it allows Pokémasters to trade and fight over cell phones with Pokémon Crystal.

THQ snaps up the Tetris license for every system imaginable, but the GameCube isn't on the list. Can you say NDA?

Anyone who's ever bought or played a Gameboy console is probably all too familiar with Tetris. Well, it seems that GBA will be getting a version of the classic puzzle game too, courtesy of THQ. In an agreement with Blue Planet Software THQ acquired the rights to produce Tetris games on next-generation... Read more...

Mr. Kent breaks it down at MSNBC.

What the heck, let's make it "Slam Sony Day" at the Planet today! Nevermind I'm personally NOT a big Sony hater or a system-loyalist for that matter. Nevermind I haven't even devoted much time into looking for Nintendo news today either (this is a Nintendo site, right?). The above linked editorial... Read more...

Zosha posts an off-topic story about the ever expensive PS2. Retailers all over are going crazy, raising prices, screwing kids over. It's quite simply a big mess.

OK, this isn't Nintendo news at all, but as a wise man once said "Know how thy enemy doth piss everyone else off." Take a look at what Core Magazine had to say about the recent PS2 cutbacks...

Today we received word from the owner of chain of gaming related stores in the north-east regarding... Read more...

S&P gets a release date in Japan. We still don't know if it's going to hit the states yet.

In Japan. Not here though. It's still unclear as if the shooter by Nintendo and Treasure will becoming out in the good old U S of A. But it will be released in Japan on November 21st. According to IGN...

Nintendo doesn't have it listed to hit in the US until at least the second quarter of next year, if ever.

Correction on an Oct 5th story (original reported by TendoProject).

We have a slight correction regarding / additional information on the story we posted on October 5th (& originally reported by TNP) about a Zelda 2 demo running on GBA. While we stated that Zelda 2 was not confirmed, the demo might indicate a possibility it might be coming. It's probably only wishful thinking. One of our longtime pals, Ravi "Agent Double-O" Hiranand got in touch with this correction:
