The PSP is as much a rerelease of the PS2 as the GBA is a rerelease of the SNES.

Delayed??? If it's coming out Q3 they might even decide to delay it until christmas for better sales... I hope that stupid bugtesting means improving the overworld.

It helps to just hold a vacuum to one of the cooling vents and let it suck at full power for some time...

That's how it started on the XBox as well.
"Streaming" Linux over the network isn't that strange, we have a similar setup in school.

It's 150 Euros, not much more than a GBASP.
Cost of PSP
250 British Pound. That's 450 US Dollars, about the cost of the XBox at launch.
So, Miyamoto's generating, errr..., making Buzz for the DS?

Don't they have enough money to make both GC games AND the DS?
Also, the DS is obviously meant to counter the PSP, they said it won't replace the GBA so they aren't officially short-cycling it.

I, for one, don't care about the shoulder buttons. Even if I tried, I couldn't block anything with it. Dodges are of some use, but only VERY limited. There are few things you can dodge that the enemy can't throw at you again after you're done.

Why can't you add new levels? As long as you leave one stadium map in there those who want it still can have a realistic experience.

... Hm... If that thing were compatible with the iQue's memcard...
HM! They said it uses one Gig of rewritable (I think Lik-Sang said that) memory, right? And it's supposed to play back old titles as well, right? That'd make sense... What kind of CPU did the N64 use? Could the DS run its games?

Your statement about Zelda is correct and I bet it'd get slammed as well if it was released yearly. But then Zelda is a very level-dependant game, Maden isn't. Or at least I doubt there are that many level layouts you could put into any given sports game (except for Tony Hawk). Hm, that's interesting: People complain about yearly releases of normal sports games, but I never heard people say that the new Tony Hawk's or Need for Speed was too much like the last one... Must be because these games have changing levels...
Sounds like we found the difference. The difference between two editions of NFL, NBA, FIFA, whatever is new teams and a few more or less important features, the diference between two editions of THPS, NFS, GT, Street Fighter, UT, etc is new characters/vehicles, new features and NEW LEVELS! Now, why don't we add more different levels to games like Madden?
BTW, the only sport I enjoy in real life is hockey with ice hockey sticks and the only one I enjoy virtually is Deathball...

I've talked to quite a few people who considered the XBox a cheap cluster system... Might boost GC sales a bit.

Roy is too slow and cannot combo well, but his up-B is REALLY nasty. Easily stops Bowser's down-B. I don't see what's great about Samus and Link, though. Both seem pretty useless to me (I'd rate Mario a higher threat).
Ganondorf is pretty dangerous because of his Falcon move set, IMO the best all-purpose specials in the game.

It seemed to me that those batteries recharged while you play your game, at least I once lost my savedata in one game after not playing it for a long time, but it had no problems saving again after that...
