Author Topic: Secret of Mana Remake for the GameCube? (Read 6893 times)

According to GameCube Heaven, Brownie Brown just posted this absurd image on their website.

It's a rough scribble-drawing of a GameCube (with a GameBoy Player) and a TV, with three stick-figures on the screen, some trees, and some sort of house. And the number "2004".

With the overhead perspective and three stick-figures, does this refer to a three-player RPG? And Brownie Brown did most recently release a remake of the first game in the Seiken Densetsu series. Could they be working on the second one (Secret of Mana)? With it set to come out, possibly in a matter of weeks?

Or is this just a crazy drawing from someone who'd rather be remaking Secret of Mana?

Can anyone read Japanese?

ARGH don't you people realize that these patent drawings mean absolutely nothing. NOTHING, I say!

Oh wait, this one's legit? Okay never mind.

I would rather BB work on something new, but whatever...

Trees are in the game! Awesome! ^_^

OOOH, A RECEPTION TABLE WITH MUFFINS. I bet it's a three player lawn mowing game. (GameCube, GBA link-cable, Game Boy Player, e-Reader, Nintendo 64, televison set, VCR, Donkey Kong and the moon needed to set up a multi-player game)

Infernal how would you set that up ?

I think he was being sarcastic.

By the look of it it's based on the Mr. Pants franchise...

Or someone's sharing Deguello's hobby...

I like the way Mario is thrusting his pelvis.

Some guy on the Penny Arcade forum translated this and said it talks about some vacation some member of the staff had or something. It's weird anyway.

I don't know where people are getting the assumption that it's SoM from. I mean it's three stick figures with some trees (or giant shrooms) with a cave or archway behind them (or possible a giant head coming down to eat them). Notice how there's only one controller plugged in? How's that work for anything with multiplayer?

At the very least though that clearly is a Gamecube and I have been waiting patiently for Brownie Brown Cube game.

(In The "Secret of" games, you control three characters with one controller...)

If it talks of vacation, I wonder if it's some kind of Magical Vacation-based Cube game. Magical Vacation used 3 character parties (at least I recall using them when I played the game). That'd be kind of nice if it were true. Secret of Mana would be nice too.

I have to get myself one of those banana controllers.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #14 on:** August 25, 2004, 08:42:37 AM »

The Banana is Ninty's new peripheral...

Solace · « **Reply #15 on:** August 25, 2004, 09:00:42 AM »

Oh, I'm sure.

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #16 on:** August 25, 2004, 09:19:47 AM »

BUT IT IS!

They're borrowing the BANANA concept from Super Monkey Ball's arcade setup.

Secret of Mana is only one of my favorite games evarrr..! Finding the Dragon Buster sword to kill the Mana Dragon in the last fortress.. .fun times! I would give my left arm for a remake...

A new Seiken Dentetsu has been announced for the DS already.

That said, i generally dislike the series.

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #20 on:** August 25, 2004, 04:47:20 PM »

Banana controller and Rez vibration unit for fun good times. *Theme song*
Hey Lord_die, you set it up on the moon. =)
