What UncleBob said... While I liked the larger storage of Blu-Ray, the features of HD-DVD surpassed it. And yes, it was the price.

General Chat / Re: Is it over?

This didn't end the way I wanted, but at least now all the Blu-Ray and HD-DVD sniping amongst tech site geeks will be over faster. I had nothing invested yet because of the initial cost of entry, and considering which side won I really won't be buying into the high-def disc craze for a long while.
Good job, Hollywood!

Nintendo Gaming / RE: System Update
« on: August 13, 2007, 10:45:49 AM »
Always love updates (the good kind, that is >.>). I hope one day they lessen the dB of some of the sound effects used to browse the Wii interface. Ones like cycling through the menus in the control panel are much louder than the rest. Piercing...

General Chat / Juanita's Psychic "Rrrrrred" Hotline? (Majora's Mask)
« on: July 21, 2007, 09:39:08 AM »
Hey all. I have a rather unusual request to make. Many years ago I had this video promotion I got from RadioZelda.com (thanks Wayback Machine!) about an eccentric psychic who took phone calls (ala Ms. Cleo) and used tarot cards to predict their fortunes.
Here is the actual page for the summary and some photos of the promo.
I've since lost the video, as well as most of the other ones Nintendo put out regarding promotions for Majora's Mask. I've managed to find a couple of the countdown to destruction videos with shaky-camcorder footage in a city, but still no Juanita.
Do any of you great guys/gals happen to still have the Juanita's Psychic Red Hotline video? If so, could I get it from you or the place you found it?
Damn nostalgia... *shakes fist!*

TalkBack / RE: Mario Party 8 Launched, Recalled in the UK
« on: July 14, 2007, 06:09:50 PM »
I remember an old episode of Dexter's Lab where Dexter sought out to replace Dee Dee and an energetic, chatty nun replied to the audition and repeatedly used the words and called herself a "spastic sister". I've constantly heard the word "spaz" used in media and among people. None of which ever appeared to be a mockery of cerebral palsy. A thicker skin is needed!

Heh heh, Microsoft? Decency? Or face a(nother?) class-action lawsuit.

I imagine after investing all the money that they've spent on games, giving up on the console itself would be scarier than ridding themselves of that nuisance.

and in fact another developer likened the Wii's graphic set to a seven-year old Nvida PC graphics card.

If the PS3 does flop Ken can always have Sony rename it to the PlayMoviesStation 3 and have Java-based minigames as a side feature.
