I know MS is including a headset port right in there controllers so they will have a mic option right there if any game companies want to use it in a game. Requiring a fairly cheap headset isn't all that big of a deal so if developers wanted to use voice functions they could. I guess what I'm getting at is if Nintendo is serious about online and trying to match features would it be to much to assume that there will be a mic readily available through their headsets?

P.S...friday has come and gone and no new news...looks like Mario's prophecy hasn't come true

if I we don't hear news in a week or so Matt will get a record number of hate mails sent to him...I'm beginning to think he likes them though :/

Mario has phailed

he actually didnt specified what friday, or did he?

MysticGohan24 · « **Reply #177 on:** August 19, 2005, 09:05:46 PM »

Yes, yes he did. He claimed it would be Aug. 19th heh which now would be yesterday. Bill on the other hand claimed it would be today, Saturday the 20th. heh also Monday's my Birthday

Here in Pacific time it's only 11pm. Technically there's still time right?

And it's going to be Friday in Hawaii for quiet a while still.

Mario · « **Reply #179 on:** August 19, 2005, 09:09:32 PM »

Next Friday

Realistically i've been expecting the Rev news to hit sometime in the next 4 to 10 days.

EDIT: Yeah, Ian is right! FRIDAYTON STILL LIVES!

You are no longer 'random'.

MysticGohan24 · « **Reply #181 on:** August 19, 2005, 09:15:13 PM »

Where at?

It's already mid Saturday in Japan, Hawaii will soon be Sat. there. I don't see enough time for it to happen now

Unless it's from Japan lol or something on that side of teh world.

Darn I was hoping some REv Unveiling would happen, I want trailer, pics, specs something to peak my intrests as it is already. I'm quite intrested

nemo_83 · « **Reply #182 on:** August 19, 2005, 09:15:52 PM »

at this point i feel a little synical and jaded about the possibility, the hoping that nintendo will shake a little dribble drop of urineformation into our thirsty mouths anytime soon.

MysticGohan24 · « **Reply #183 on:** August 19, 2005, 09:18:19 PM »

Quite imagitive, eh... Nemo? I hate to pictured that

We'll see soon enough.

Mario · « **Reply #184 on:** August 19, 2005, 09:24:43 PM »

Alright, i've figured it out! It will happen on Wednesday, August 24! The 5 year anniversary of the GC unveiling! That magic number 5, it was right in front of me the whole time, I was supposed to add 5 to Friday the 19th, to get the 24th! It all fits!

Because I'm a Psychic. None of that "my friend knows this guy" or " A Nintendo rep called my cousin who's the janitors paper boy at EA". Just the fact that I'm Psychic. Good ol' fashioned bullcrap. Sorry.

Oh and for the record, the "something" was only a press release for Nintendogs. Mon Aug. 22nd 2005 1200p PST.

If you are in real life and you're a squad commander, do you press a button to tell your squad where to go?

Actually you raise a hand for "attention!" and then gesture the order. Maybe the US Army handles it differently but that's what our instructor told us (I did mention I was a soldier for a few days until I was released for psychological problems?).

No, you weren't ever soilder. Now take your medicine before you kill again.

Well I'm sure the method of communication differs on the situation, but that wasn't my point...

From the same source as the Yuji Naka quote, there is a new one from Peter Molyneux:

"There is a line at the end of the book ´Game Over´ and it is: ´Never underestimate Nintendo´. That is all I can say about the controller."

stevey · « **Reply #189 on:** August 20, 2005, 04:51:36 AM »

It is 11:49 pm in tokyo land. You failed!

In all seriousness is that blog really reliable?

That's a good one, Bill. Where did you pull that from?

ThePerm · « **Reply #193 on:** August 20, 2005, 10:05:18 AM »

Have you seen this video? its from the Games Convention in Germany

Expanding the Definition of Gaming

nickmitch · « **Reply #197 on:** August 20, 2005, 10:53:33 AM »

That was nice. I liked it a lot.

Strell · « **Reply #198 on:** August 20, 2005, 02:27:32 PM »

Stevey took what I said about voice control and put it in his sig.

I feel honored. AND STOLEN FROM.

But mostly honored.

....

Hooray!

Edit: That video was really cool actually. Why can't they advertise like that on tv? ....

nemo_83 · « **Reply #199 on:** August 20, 2005, 03:32:39 PM »

When the fans with blogs are the ones with the big new news it says a lot about how hard the big media is really trying or that they're all wrapped up in NDAs which begs the question; why keep secrets from fans if everyone else in the industry already knows.
