I slept through class so IWATATON would be closer!

Okay not really, I sorta regret sleeping through class. It's my favorite class, too.

But still, IWATATON, eh?

Which reminds me, why did your avatar shink in size a couple weeks ago? I found it odd....

With big speeches like this, doesn't PGC generally has a stream-of-consiousness thread that starts well before the speech does? News will be posted to the main page.

Yeah, I know. I always hated that. Because they you have 7 pages worth of garble, 4 pages worth of good info and then a new thread opens up in Talkback and everything gets seperated into two threads. It makes me sad.

6! Six more hours of wait. God(reggie) it feel like years.

btw, this isn't the first official mention of Revolution Dragon Quest by Nintendo, I can't believe I missed this back at E3.

"He (Iwata) said several games were in development for the device, including Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles and Dragon Quest."

teh pre-post-iwataton?

The funny thing is, I don't recall Ninty ever officially mentioning Dragon Quest...It was either a slipup by GameSpot or a goofup...

Artimus · « **Reply #55 on:** September 15, 2005, 12:18:08 PM »

I hope Iwata does one of his silly things. He's so funny it's really quite absurd. I can watch his E3 speech over and over and catch a little thing to laugh at each time.

"YOU WANT A REVOLUTION? Here one is."

And I love how he waits for people to laugh at jokes. Though I assume that will be less awkward at TGS since he'll be speaking in Japanese.

Kraven · « **Reply #56 on:** September 15, 2005, 12:23:54 PM »

Is the speech at 7pm EST or 7pm PST?

Artimus · « **Reply #57 on:** September 15, 2005, 12:26:12 PM »

PST

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #58 on:** September 15, 2005, 12:34:33 PM »

If it were at 7 pm EST then we'd be pretty screwed, wouldn't we?

Artimus · « **Reply #59 on:** September 15, 2005, 12:36:22 PM »

No! Sooner = better!

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #60 on:** September 15, 2005, 12:37:59 PM »

How dare you take my sarcasm seriously!

Sorry the picture doesn't work anymore...here's a link to another picture taken by another gamespot user, if that helps verify it at all...

ENIXTON

Oddly enough though, according to some users over there, when they actually clicked on the link even when the site was up, it led to a similar error that's been showing up on and off all day.

After the disapointment with the AMN announcement, I decided it be best not to get my hopes up for tonight, but qute honestly, this alone confirms that there's going to be a LOT of news today from MISUTA IWATA SAN.

Before I cared more that he weas giving a speech, since his speeches tend to rock. Now I care more that the Rev is finally coming.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #62 on:** September 15, 2005, 12:58:00 PM »

So you didn't see it personally?

Mario · « **Reply #63 on:** September 15, 2005, 12:59:35 PM »

I'm guessing that's fake, notice the... hmm, that's a damn near perfect fake, good job to whoever made that!

4 hours 3 minutes 10 seconds!

vudu · « **Reply #64 on:** September 15, 2005, 12:59:51 PM »

Something like that could easily be Photoshopped. Hell, even I could do this one.

If I remember correctly, Gamespot made it seem that quote was pointing to a DS version of DQ, though they seem to have changed their tune since.

Dragon Quest EXPLODES Revolution?

Revolution cannot handle Dragon Quest graficks.

Dirk Temporo · « **Reply #67 on:** September 15, 2005, 01:23:31 PM »

EDIT: Never mind.

So close!

kirby_killer_dedede · « **Reply #68 on:** September 15, 2005, 01:55:23 PM »

Bill - I saw it, but I didn't take a picture. I say to verify it is because you obviously don't believe me, so here's another picture.

NotSoStu · « **Reply #69 on:** September 15, 2005, 02:00:46 PM »

*awaits another picture*

Mario · « **Reply #70 on:** September 15, 2005, 02:02:03 PM »

He'll need some time to fake something.

LESS THAN 3 HOURS! (til it's about to start!)

I find the lack of leaks disturbing....makes me think nothing's coming....

But then, Nintendo wouldn't really be stupid enough to let us get our hopes up for nothing, would they?

Oh. Wait.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #73 on:** September 15, 2005, 02:14:22 PM »

But that's the original, not his...

Mario · « **Reply #74 on:** September 15, 2005, 02:17:05 PM »

Nothing ever leaks out of Nintendo. It's just "BAM WHAT WAS THAT? OMG AWESOME."
