Hahahahha! Meaning, this is funny.

Fastest Game News obviously forgot to add the word "million" in their story here. Funny when you read it the first time...

DOWNLOAD: Donkey Kong 64

Online: A downloadable movie of Donkey Kong 64, the game that is to have a $12 launch campaign, has been posted by Gaming Age. It’s meant to be as good as expected, so check out the video by hitting this link right away.

So who had it?

Who do I think has the best coverage? Well I'd say everybody really. Nintendorks actually have me laughin'. And they have good reporting as well. IGN64 is (as always) good too.

The history of the Gekko.

What a sweet name huh? IGN64 has more info and history about the new IBM chip.

September 1997: IBM announces a new manufacturing process technology that incorporates copper. This technology allows chip makers to use copper wires rather than traditional aluminum interconnects to link translators in chips. This advance gave IBM reportedly a significant lead in creating the next generation of semiconductors.

You should know this...

Next Generation lists basically everything that has happened in the past 24 or so hours in Dolphin news. If you went to bed after you picked up your Star Wars tickets, you missed a big day!

More Dolphin. More Info. More Drool.

God bless E3...have I said that before? Looks like Nintendo is going to make for a another decent fight at E3 this year! (WOOHOOO!). More news from IGN64...

Nintendo today made the first official US Dolphin announcement at its pre-E3 press conference in Los Angeles. At the event, Nintendo... Read more...

See why

About Sony. NOPE! Take a look see at this and you won't be either! (beware...this is a 3 meg graphics file!) But it is worth it. Thanks N2000HQ...

Billy proves his SW love

But then again I got tickets! Yes, I was one of the many (dare I say it) Star Wars Geeks out there in the rain (yes it rained on us for a bit...like we cared). Let me warn you...I've had WAY to much coffee today, and I was on a mission like you wouldn't believe, or would be able to comprehend. ... Read more...

Nintendo gets wordy and we get a TON of info (finally).

Here's the official press release right from Nintendo's E3 page.

IBM 400 MHz Copper Processor to Power Next Nintendo Game Machine

LOS ANGELES, CA (May 12, 1999) –IBM and Nintendo today announced a multi-year $1 billion technology agreement to support Nintendo’s next home video game console, code-named "Dolphin."

Why write news when you can just link to everyone elses?

Well not really...this is what everyone else had to say (that I could dig up). See what the other sources think about this at: OperatioN2000, Nintendojo, GameFan Online, Game-Online, Fastest Gaming News, Gaming-Age, IGN64, and many more. BTW...the reason I printed the NG article was because someone sent it to me. No offense to anyone else....(plus they wrapped it up pretty well).

Information overload

Next Generation spilled some big beans last night, unknown by myself because I was playing Q3A (and they updated past 9pm). Nintendo in bed with IBM, and Matsushita? Read on...

Word has just gone out across the wire in Japan as of this writing that Nintendo will ally closely with Matsushita to manufacture its next generation game system, targeted to forming digital networks worldwide.

Metroid?! Oh sweet sweet Metroid!!!

IGN64 reports in the latest Famitsu there is N64 talk of Earth Bound 64, Super Mario RPG 2, Ura Zelda, Mario 64 2, and also something rumoring even more about Samus hitting the N2000! Take a gander:

Famitsu also asked Nintendo about a new installment in the Metroid series, but NCL PR staff claimed... Read more...

Yeah, it's crap. Period. You can only polish a turd so much.

I decided just to reprint the e-mail correspondence with Donald Allen from NintendoNext that I had recently about the screenshots they have on their page. I'll let you decide what to think about how "real" they are.

I sent:

Hello!

I was just wondering if you had anymore information about... Read more...

Is it live...or is it memorex?

The good folks over at Video-Source are taking pre-orders for their annual (kick ass!) E3 video. The tapes cost (not including shipping) $18.50 (EP, Single-Tape version, 6 Hours) or $26.50 (SP, Three-Tape version, 6 Hours). I have seen the last 2 (EP version) and the quality was decent. I have not... Read more...

Some thing smells like poop.

Well actually I had only one. Are the NintendoNext's pics real? Personally I'm rather doubtful. Something smells like Angus fecal matter. I sent NintendoNext's webmaster an e-mail asking what the deal was. We shall see if we get any response. I'm waiting :)

Something else to purchase....

More news about the new Game Boy Color 2 from Magic Box! Capcom is developing...

Capcom has confirmed that Nintendo is working on Gameboy Color 2, it will be capable to display a lot more colors on screen simultaneously with the new TFT screen display, and Nintendo is aiming to release GBC2 sometimes in the 2000.

A small taste of the future?

Could it be? Check out NintendoNext's screen shots from pictures of an actual game in development? Fact or rumor? To be honest, I really don't know. No actual named developer. They do say this is fact not rumor. Look at the pictures they have here.

NintendoNext has received screenshots from... Read more...

In other words, there isn't any news.

Very quiet out there in N2000 news. This week is going to be nuts. Between the impending ticket release of Star Wars - EP1 The Phantom Menace, and the explosion of E3...Sh*ts gonna be CRAZY! Kind of nice, because it's helped me try out new things on the site. All comments are always welcome. ... Read more...

128-bit goodness!

After seeing the price drop on a DC to $228 (with game purchase) at Buyrite, I almost imported one. Not anymore. Even if you are just a bit curious about what the poop is on the US Dreamcast launch, Dreamcast.IGN has the scoop. Nice rhyme eh? The modem will be included in the box! Here's the skinny...

There can be only one!

Here are some thumbs of the images submitted in the OperatioN2000 Logo Contest. For some reason their "survey doo-hickey" doesn't support images so you have to cut and paste. Not anymore! Check 'em out and then cast your vote for them over at OperatioN2000!

Rawk da house!

Miss what happened in N2000 news lately, check out Nintendojo's report in there In Focus:

New details have emerged concerning Nintendo's next system. Long referred to by media types as "N2000" and "N200X," the name Nintendo themselves are using is "Project Dolphin." This was originally reported... Read more...
