Actually, he's been converted. In one of his mailbags I think he even predicted Nintendo to come out ahead next generation, and he accepts that they're going in a different direction.


Yeah Iansane. Matt's drunk the kool-aid. When will you?

For gosh sakes, stop the Cassamassina hate. He does good work (except for that spec speculation confusion), and he's actually starting to get (and believe) Nintendo's message more and more now, whereas in past years what Ninetndo's been doin has flown completely over his head.

Nintendo Gaming / RE:Nintendo expects little profit from Wii in first year, to be sold at or near loss?
« on: June 20, 2006, 05:34:59 PM »
Apparently, there are 3 drums and two cymbals...with this set-up where they use the b-trigger to hit the cymbals, are they intending to not use pointer functionality at all? This hints strongly for a wiimote-nunchuck method of control.

Nintendo Gaming / RE: How will the Wii reach out to the non-gamers?
« on: June 20, 2006, 09:34:38 AM »
Just to be clear, the "conversion" we're talking about with non-gamers is to get them converting to buying more games, period, not converting them into "real" gamers right?

Because I thought the whole reason that they we "lost" these people back in the day was that they outright refused to become "real" gamers, that it is impossible to convince someone to buy something that they don't actually want?

It seems that time and time again, the only concrete, reasonable and well-thought-out suggestion one can give to Nintendo for their online system is to make it one system, one friend code.

Nintendo Gaming / Completely Baseless Rumble Technology Speculation
« on: June 18, 2006, 08:34:51 PM »
Boy, I tell ya, shuffling off the yoke of journalistic integrity and fully rational thought is a great feeling.

Hey! Immersion is showing off new rumble tech! Read this!

Quote
In addition to allowing stronger, more detailed rumbling effects in video games, Immersion's new technology is lighter (it uses only one motor instead of two), smaller, and draws less power.

...

A heavy recoil effect when firing a rocket launcher, with the feedback trailing off as the rocket propelled into the distance

...

Immersion says that the new rumble technology is ready now, and the company is currently showing off its capabilites to interested parties.


So...think it might make it into the Wii or (god forbid) the PS360?

Nintendo Gaming / RE: Rumour: Third Party companies are shifting many of their projects from the PlayStation 3 to the Wii

Talk about the price and spread of good broadband technology in the US will, if allowed to follow it's course to the rational source of such concerns, inevitably turn to politics.

I think they also made Hunter: The Reckoning. The interview leads me to believe that these guys do a lot of licensed titles.

Oops that already happened once and didn't work out.

Can anyone name the game I'm talking about?


Ooh! Tell me more of this sordid tale of debauchery and intrigue!

*ACK*

That vile vicious falsyfying name rears its ugly head yet again! When will people learn, Brontosaurus it is not! No thunderlizard! The Brontosaurus, originally thought to be a different creature, was really the Apatosaurus, just with bones connected differently! Hear that world? APATOSAURUS! FLAT-FOOTED LIZARD! Its not as sexy as THUNDER, but it's CORRECT!

LOL. But really, you do redeem yourself by using "Land Before Time" terminology. All is forgiven. You would've even garnered bonus points if you'd called it a "flat-head!"

Either way, I collected sturdier dino toys. These Dino Rider toys, while cool, had a flimsy empty feeling to them and tended to break easily. MY dino toys were all solid plastic and chunky chunky, so that my Triceratops really FELT like it had some heft when it was charging at my T-Rex!

...oh...and I used the small rubber/eraser dinosaurs as babies...

“As the PlayStation 3 is a computer, we might even offer it on a built-to-order basis, customized to the needs of each and every user,” Kutaragi is quoted as saying. “The hardware components have been designed in a modularized format with this possibility in mind.”
