wii - Thank you Youtube

Gamecube - This was before streaming.I remember downloading this video from IGN( I have a better version on my hard drive)

Once we get into the n64 Era it becomes a matter of Archaeology. When n64 came out the internet was really primitive. Nintendo had to unveil n64 several times in public.

SNES stuff

this is interesting

NES stuff

Thanks for gathering these, Perm. Fun trip down memory lane and funny to see the difference in HOW new systems have been talked about through the ages.

[ThePerm]

I'll keep gathering these.

Funny Story.

My nephew snuck into my room and found the Planet Gamecube e3 2001 DVD I got with my Gamecube controller t-shirt.
He saw Louie the cat on the cover and wanted to play it. Louie the cat was wearing a Mario cap.  He thought it was a game. I told him it was a movie. He still wanted to watch it. Obviously, my nephew and I would be the only ones in the family that would want to watch that.

I hid it. And put on Mario 3d world. There's cat Mario for you.

I miss that Louie the Cat. He sure dug up some good rumors back in the day.

Watching that Wii U video I see how easy it was for people to think it was just a new controller for the Wii. I mean they said do this with the New Controller in every new segment and showed it with regular Wii games and accessories.

Also note, the first word of copy text after Nintendo on the Wii U trailer.

This is a really interesting video because they go out of their way to dis CD-roms.


Also, Stranger Things made me remember about this here

Here is one for you Mr. Perm. I don't remember how to embed videos right now so the link will have to do.

[ThePerm]

I supposed it falls into the member berry category? Was the link you sent me supposed to be about Luke Perry on AARP magazine?

[supermario2k]

Yes, it was supposed to be more of a "you made me feel old now I get to make you feel old" reply. Even though I think we're close to the same age.

[ThePerm]

If I remember I think you're just a little older.

I counted Power Glove even though it is third party.

[ShyGuy]

That's a great picture. Only suggestion I would make is the Wavebird.

[ThePerm]

Oh yeah real beginning of the pro line. Will add.
