I want Super Smash Brothers 3 Online, and a new zelda, nothing else

rodtod · « **Reply #26 on:** February 23, 2003, 04:38:11 PM »

it's not like PGC has a monopoly on Nintendo coverage. they're not going to hush up sites that get an exclusive. for all we know, Rick may have even checked with NOA sources to see if this Gamecubezero site is being honest. but we always see rumors and hype develop as E3 nears. the thing is, we always end up getting a little disappointed and hoping that "maybe next time" E3 will have all that we expected. and so the cycle continues.

Rick is just watching out for us giddy gamers, and hoping we don't get too hysterical about E3 news. don't believe everything you read, especially not on the web. in the case of Gamecubezero's news story, it would have been credible had the writer not gone overboard by assuming the next Zelda title would be unveiled.

PGC did not get to where it is now by posting a bunch of bs and advertising that "hot story" on bigger site's forums. Gamecubezero needs to find more honorable ways of gaining a readership.

btw, that Super Smash Bros. online idea has been running around since before Melee was even released.

What I would love to see is a brand new RPG from nintendo aimed at older gamers with a serious and involving plotline, maybe along the style of Shining force. With character classes like Mages, Rangers, Knights, Archers, etc. And with great graphics to boot, that would be my dream come true.

Grey Ninja · « **Reply #28 on:** February 23, 2003, 08:23:08 PM »

What, kind of like Fire Emblem?

Alliedrally68 · « **Reply #29 on:** February 23, 2003, 08:31:40 PM »

Yeah, wouldn't it be great if they brought it Stateside? *Wishing out loud* And with a pre-order deal like WW that had some of the older games converted to English. Heck, if they even just released a compilation disc to bring American gamers up to date in the series. Oh the possibilities...

Nindendo needs to do this.

P.S.: I wonder why Nintendo included Marth and Roy as playable characters in the American version? To spark some interest among gamers? Maybe

"I'd start with anything that was shown at E3 last year but is still not released."

Oh my God! Wario World is going to be shown at E3! What a scoop!

"My list? Star Fox Armada, Wind Waker, Kirby, maybe Pikmin 2, and probably others"

Wind Waker is being released next month. E3 is in May. I REALLY doubt Nintendo would show off a game they've already released in North America at E3.

"I wonder why Nintendo included Marth and Roy as playable characters in the American version? To spark some interest among gamers?"

It's probably because it would have been a pain in the ass to remove them and the localization job would have taken longer as a result. I assume that if Nintendo of America had any plans in late 2001 (when SSBM was released) to release Fire Emblem in North America they would have released the GBA Fire Emblem game.

Well, that's my point. It doesn't take a frickin' genius to make a couple of "bold predictions" as to what will be shown at E3, because I could pull names right out of my ass, and have at least 80% accuracy. It's like shooting fish.

My point is that we're quickly approaching the time of year when you all need to have your bullshit detectors cranked all the way to the right. A lot of people are going to try to put some crap over on you, and it's your job to be skeptical and not get carried away. There are a great many people out there that start these rumors and LIES, just to see how fast they get around the Internet. And I'm not going to let our Forums be a vehicle for spreading this BS around. The only reason why I haven't shut this thread down entirely is because I'm trying to use it to educate you guys.

PaLaDiN · « **Reply #32 on:** February 24, 2003, 07:38:51 AM »

We're ain't needin no stenkin edukation.

Seriously, people... he's got a point. Remember Megaton? Exactly.

I don't believe this stuff either.

About Sonic Adventure 3... from what I've heard, it's confirmed, but no details. I don't get where they're getting the "Exclusive:Yes" crap from. I'd say it's pretty likely to be shown at E3 though, if only because Service Games needs any boost it can get.

Hemmorrhoid · « **Reply #33 on:** February 24, 2003, 08:10:18 AM »

Rick can you say anything about Too Human, or whatever else SK is doing?
And another question, will you be making another E3 DVD this time, i guess this question is obsolete, but im not sure if your last DVD was a sucess.

mouse_clicker · « **Reply #34 on:** February 24, 2003, 08:15:07 AM »

Do you even know much about Too Human or SK's supposed other project, Rick? SK's been really tight lipped about all their games, especially Too Human. I REALLY hope they fully unveil it at E3.

"I don't get where they're getting the "Exclusive:Yes" crap from."

Well, IGN, like Rick here, knows a LOT of stuff we don't- they just don't tell us. IGN's usually not one to claim outright that the next Sonic will be exclusive if they didn't have reason enough to believe it.

Anyway, I'm glad this thread has turned into "Let's bash GamecubeZero!". Seriously people, you're just as pathetic as you claim that site is if all you do is sit here and point out all their faults. Rick had a point when he said to turn up your BS meters, but don't take that too far. GamecubeZero could have legitimate info, you never know! It seems like a lot of you hold PGC to be perfect with no faults whatsoever- I bet even Rick would tell you they've made some mistakes in the past, as does EVERY site. It's minimizing these mistakes that gets you to be credible.

godwheel · « **Reply #35 on:** February 24, 2003, 08:23:08 AM »

I'm going to ignore all E3 announcements from now until the show actually starts.

"Well, IGN, like Rick here, knows a LOT of stuff we don't- they just don't tell us. IGN's usually not one to claim outright that the next Sonic will be exclusive if they didn't have reason enough to believe it."

But the thing is, from what I've heard, they directly STATED they had no other info than "it's in development". I could have heard wrong though.

I'm hoping for some Too Human news too myself... but I wouldn't be disappointed if we got Eternal Darkness 2 instead.

mouse_clicker... you could just as easily argue that we don't have one shred of proof the article is correct. Either way, we don't know, we're just speculating... which is not a bad thing, as long as you don't believe speculation outright.

Hemmorrhoid · « **Reply #37 on:** February 24, 2003, 09:21:12 AM »

well ign always reinforced the fact that TOo Human is very much under development
but not necessarily their next game.

Hostile Creation · « **Reply #38 on:** February 24, 2003, 12:49:50 PM »

I was giving a general list.

Also, the next Zelda games. . . The Legend Forgotten, I think.

kennyb27 · « **Reply #39 on:** February 24, 2003, 01:03:09 PM »

The chance of Nintendo showing Metroid 2 is so slim that it is not even funny. This game was just confirmed to be in development, all they could show is some form of a new level with the old engine, which would not impress anyone, this game would have a bad hype from the start. Also, it is very likely that Nintendo will show Wind Waker, last E3 they displayed quite a few games that were already launched. And, yeah, the comment about the "new Zelda" (notice the quotes) being shown at E3 is nearly nothing, why would Nintendo chance losing thousands of possible gamers from Wind Waker who are hoping this new Zelda comes soon.

I see that Rick is being conscpicuously quiet on the Too Human issue. Vell ve Have vays of may-king you talk. Vhat is it you are hiding? Vhen vill you break unde ze pressure?

I don't follow you kennyb27...are you saying that if Nintendo releases another Zelda game really soon, people wouldn't buy Wind Waker? or are you saying that people would not like being stuck with Wind Waker until the next one arrives?

Odin · « **Reply #42 on:** February 24, 2003, 01:20:10 PM »

It's still way to early to be getting ourselves hyped up for things that might never happen. Realistically, I don't think Nintendo's showing is gonna blow anyone away at this years E3. Could Too Human do it? Yes, will it be shown? probably not. So, let's cut the E3 rumors for a couple of months, anything could happen between now and then. Rick's right about making E3 predictions, and about Nintendo not having all of it's own plans figured out for what it has in store for this years E3.

Ian Sane · « **Reply #43 on:** February 24, 2003, 01:52:28 PM »

"Also, it is very likely that Nintendo will show Wind Waker, last E3 they displayed quite a few games that were already launched."

They did? I know they showed some released games in a video but I don't recall them having any playable. Anyone who actually went to E3 last year able to confirm whether or not Nintendo had playable versions of already released games?

"And, yeah, the comment about the 'new Zelda' (notice the quotes) being shown at E3 is nearly nothing, why would Nintendo chance losing thousands of possible gamers from Wind Waker who are hoping this new Zelda comes soon."

Why would showing off a new Zelda lose "thousands" of sales? Zelda games aren't like Madden where the next game makes the old one obsolete. The average Zelda fan will buy BOTH games as both games are completely different. Now if Nintendo showed off Wind Waker: Director's Cut then I can see it affecting sales. Besides by the time E3 comes around Wind Waker will have been out for nearly two months and by then all the really hardcore fans will have bought it already. Anyone who really cares about the new look enough to sit on the fence in regards to purchasing likely will never buy the game anyway.

Think about it this way. If Square showed off two Final Fantasy games for PS2 at the same time (let's say XII and XIII) that are to be released months apart do you think anybody would not buy XII because XIII is being released so soon after? Not likely because both games are different and most fans will be interested in both.

Gibdo Master · « **Reply #44 on:** February 24, 2003, 01:56:47 PM »

Well it's been confirmed that Capcom has been working on a brand new Zelda for the GBA since 2001. Yes, it is a different game from the Four Swords. Read about it by clicking here. Maybe there is some truth to the The Legend of Zelda: The Legend Forgotten after all. Note how Miyamoto is quoted as saying, "Miyamoto continued with stating that this game will most likely be revealed at the E3 convention in Los Angeles, May 2003."

mouse_clicker · « **Reply #45 on:** February 24, 2003, 02:43:55 PM »

"mouse_clicker... you could just as easily argue that we don't have one shred of proof the article is correct."

True, but that doesn't automatically mean it's FALSE, either. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Until someone PROVES that GamecubeZero is BSing, what gives them the right to assume so? I'm not saying we should believe them (I'll admit a lot of their stuff sounds iffy), but without evidence either way, we shouldn't make a decision either way.

RickPowers · « **Reply #46 on:** February 24, 2003, 03:00:03 PM »

Well, I'm telling you right now, it's 100% bullsh!t. The sequel to Wind Waker will NOT be shown at E3. It's FAR too early.

Gibdo Master · « **Reply #47 on:** February 24, 2003, 03:37:37 PM »

Well that website never actually said anything about it being a Wind Waker sequel (in the sense of it being a new GC game). They just said a Zelda game called The Legend of Zelda: The Legend Forgotten would be shown in video at E3. Now a new GBA Zelda game has been confirmed. Even IGN has an article about it saying it's confirmed. You can read it here. In the interview Miyamoto said that the new GBA game would most likely be shown at this years E3.

So Rick are you saying the GameCube Zelda sequel is bull sh!t or the whole new Zelda thing including the GBA game?

JSR · « **Reply #48 on:** February 24, 2003, 03:41:24 PM »

In all the lists of games you guys came up with you left a game out. *clears throat* F-Zero!

Hemmorrhoid · « **Reply #49 on:** February 24, 2003, 09:21:31 PM »

He meant a WIndwaker sequel is bullsh!t.
And I swear Silicon Knights are gonna display Too Human this year, they cant develop it forever and they are obviously working on it.
I know that they are also working on another project which might get released even before Too Human but hell its about time to show some Too Human.
