Nintendo Gaming / Offical 2002 Game Of The Year Nominees

« on: February 04, 2003, 11:11:08 AM »

"Note that Mario only has one nomination, and I'd bet good money that it won't win. Sly Cooper and Ratchet and Clank are at about the same level as Mario is, and sales will ultimately deterimine who gets that award."

i am almost positive mario out sold both of those.

Nintendo Gaming / Rumor: Just Sniffing Around

« on: February 04, 2003, 11:05:38 AM »

has nintendo not gotten the tools to make the cube online to 3rd paties yet??? if i knew that a week ago i wouldnt have ordered a broadband adapter. i am expecting to use at least 5 games online for my cube, but i agree with rick. if they dont announce anything by e3 i doubt there will be much online for the cube at all. its not that big of a deal to me anyways, but its still a nice bonus. especially mario kart online. i could play all my buddies off at different colleges and what not.

Nintendo Gaming / Rumored Online Games... so far..

« on: February 04, 2003, 08:11:05 AM »

all those would be good online along with mario party 4. but i also want ea, even though they are dropping some sports titles, to put the remaining ones online. thats all we really need. maybe a good fps like timesplitters 3.

yea at least these guys have good tastes in games. the only xbox game nominated for anything was splitter cell. the only thing i can see it winning is graphics though. its not going to win game of the year. hopefully nintendo gets some recognition for this.

F^ck these new threads i just lost all the sh!t i typed out. anyways i was saying nintendo should put all of their mulitplayer games online from now on, or at the least let them support lan play. they have many to choose from like mario party, animal crossing, mario tennis, golf, and kart. i personally think that the games that louie were  talking about is probably pokemon.....kan play wouldnt be that impressive, but if it were online......yes. well i currently have a bb adapter but no games to use it on....i am waiting nintendo......

Nintendo Gaming / A fine line to be number 1

no one is going to mess with the gameboys position this generation. and it wont be over night. its true. the only way they could dethrown the gba is by maybe making the games on disc so that they are cheaper to develop for. that the only reason sony was able to over take nintendo. and not to mention cds on a handheld system may not work because of skipping and what not. i am not an expert at these things, but i really doubt nintendo will lose the handheld market.

Nintendo Gaming / GameCube's Appeal to the Teen Audience

« on: February 01, 2003, 05:29:12 PM »

prime was made by an american company. and noa actually has gotten about 10 times the amount of 3rd party developers to make games for the cube in comparison to NCL. check the release list for japan compared to america. i believe that both play different roles and if its anyones fault it lies with NCL. arent they the ones that have the most power?

Nintendo Gaming / GameCube's Appeal to the Teen Audience

well to add to this thread, my roommate this year who made fun of me last year for my purchase of a gamecube made a very interesting comment today. some guy who was just kidding said gamecube sucks because it cant play dvd's. my room mate(who is 19) then replied, that is the gamecubes only down fall, besides that i think it is the best console.......i was shocked. this is the same kid who said "why did u get a gamecube?" it was one of the most suprising things i had seen in a while. this just goes to prove that the glass ceiling, or what ever nintendo has imposed on itself, can be broken. if they make the games the gamers will respond. its as simple as that. the thing nintendo needs is word of mouth. thats what got my room mate to respect nintendo. they seriously need to just pay 1 big star to endorse the cube. there were those nelly rumors a couple weeks ago. if nintendo could get someone like that, or kobe bryant or some huge icon that many people love, that could be a huge turning point. even some really hot girl. maybe christina agulara. didnt nintendo not spend a quarter of a billion dollars on advertising last year??? just have a star sign a 20 million dollar contract for 10 years or something. its a really good investment and i believe at this point it is the best way to get attention to one of their comercials. and people would become so familiar with these advertisements, that they would just see the guy and think its a nintendo comercial. nintendo can get back some of the market share, they just need an idea.
