Very good, although they couldn't show us the Mario performance because Nintendo said no. We had to listen over the guy talking about his guitars. The Zelda section was very cool.

I think I am that one guy who liked fitting those keys in the boss door; I'll have to check out that game.

Did anyone look at the Destructoid review? At the end by the score he said, "Basically, this is like a "7" on your grandfather's blog." That sounds like, as some of you had said, that he gave it a lower score than he felt it deserved just to cause a ruckus.

Australians must pronounce "ship" differently than Americans. Is it safe to assume you pronounce the 'i' in that word similarly to the vowel sound in "cheap"?

I hope it did good in America too. My cousin bought one this weekend, and my brother got one yesterday. The price drop is definitely helping.

Holy price drop! I felt cheated at first, but then I read about the Ambassador thing, and now that seems pretty cool. I haven't played some of those GBA games, specifically Metroid and Mario Kart, and now I'll get them for free. Gutsy move by Nintendo, definitely caused by the Vita.

It looks really good. It sounds good too, at least better than The Mercenaries. The Mercenaries had bad sound, but based off the YouTube audio, this sounds much better.

Great to hear you again, Nathan. I liked hearing what was really on your mind this episode. I hope you come back and visit sometime, you will be missed.

It was a joy to hear game 2. That was one of my favorite games on N64, as I have fond memories of playing it. I recognized it almost immediately.

In actuality, the inability to reset the game was intentional, and is mentioned in the manual.

@UltraClayton
Could you make a new post with just your answer for the number of triggers (don't modify your original post).
My bad, I should have clarified I wanted a number not a Y/N. (now fixed)
Cheers!

Face buttons: (7) +, -, home, a, b, x, y
D-pad: (Y)
Dual analogue sticks: (Y)
Rumble: (Y)
Screen: (Y)
Camera: (N)
Speaker: (N)
Triggers: (4) much like the Xbox; it will be L, R, LZ, RZ
I.R: (Y)
Microphone: (N)
Rechargeable battery: (Y) For sure if there is a screen
Motion sensors: (Y)
Your idea: (black + polished)
Your idea: (exchangeable faceplates)
Your idea: (built-in jacket, for your safety)

I now know there will likely be a camera, but I will keep my original prediction.
