From Nintendo Power-

"We spoil you rotten every month with gaming tidbits in Game Watch, but in the next issue we'll really spill the beans--we'll tell you what nintendo plans to show off at the Electronic Entertainment Expo May 14-16. The Big announcments planned and the many games to be revealed will make this a huge preview of the video game shindig!"

This could be just a false alarm, maybe its just their way of saying its gonna be a great show.
Or maybe it's something more.....

I'm sorry for having to tell you this, but I do believe that this subject belongs in the E3 discussion forum. Thanks, oh and I don't work here so it might be perfectly fine just wanted to give you the heads up

RickPowers · « **Reply #2 on:** May 07, 2003, 05:54:25 AM »

Oh lordy ... yes, I would say that there are big announcements coming. People are so quick to shrug off Nintendo Power these days, but maybe after next week, they won't be so quick to shrug it off anymore ...

Damn you Americans!
Make sure all the new info is on PGC!

Rick.... its not ignoring Nintendo Power.... more like spurned by Megaton!

Hey Rick can you give us an idea of what the end of the last issue on NP could be hiniting at? You know the Hero of Time anyideas

ThePerm · « **Reply #6 on:** May 07, 2003, 10:55:13 AM »

god megaton was december...thats still being talked about?

Nintendo Gamecube · « **Reply #7 on:** May 07, 2003, 10:59:41 AM »

No, megaton is over. We want to hear about E3.

"People are so quick to shrug off Nintendo Power these days, but maybe after next week, they won't be so quick to shrug it off anymore"

Is that a hint in itself? Are we not going to shrug of NP because they're right or are we not going to shrug them off because this announcment affects them in a positive way? Something like demo discs packed with NP perhaps? Of course since we already know of the existence of a demo disc that's not really E3 announcement calibur. It's probably something like a game or a partnership with a third party.

Rick, you better start 'splaining yourself.

Bloodworth · « **Reply #10 on:** May 07, 2003, 01:04:36 PM »

HAH HAHA! The "Megaton" rumor will never die. No matter what Nintendo announces, people will think that the megaton is something else because there's no one around to say that (x) was the megaton.

I hope they have the CODE-name or info about the nest GEN-CONSOLE of nintendo

RickPowers · « **Reply #12 on:** May 07, 2003, 01:22:41 PM »

Actually, the "Megaton" was revealed to be a game featuring characters from the magazine in which that rumor started. You could hear the collective Internet say, "Meh."

As for explaining myself, I wouldn't be me if I did that.

Damn it Rick your going to make us HYPE ourselves to death...

I know your sitting thier laughin at what you've started, I would be too if I knew what you were hinting at.

Now the wait for E3 seems even longer. AHHHHHH *runs into a wall*

rpglover · « **Reply #14 on:** May 07, 2003, 02:05:52 PM »

nintendo always has something good for us at e3
they are the kings of the e3 show- and the wait cant be any longer

mouse_clicker · « **Reply #15 on:** May 07, 2003, 02:26:59 PM »

Come on, Rick- remember when you told us all about the Zelda bonus disc months before there was anything official on it? Don't you feel the undying urge to repeat that event?

RickPowers · « **Reply #16 on:** May 07, 2003, 02:47:43 PM »

I certainly do. I certainly do.

mouse_clicker · « **Reply #17 on:** May 07, 2003, 03:00:47 PM »

Maybe I should've worded my post a bit better- are you going to succumb to that urge and spill the beans?

I don't know why I ask questions to which I already know the answers.

kennyb27 · « **Reply #18 on:** May 07, 2003, 03:06:46 PM »

Sometimes you just can't help but love these editors and reporters alike.

Perfect Cell · « **Reply #19 on:** May 07, 2003, 05:02:28 PM »

I never said this was the megaton. My point was that people like myself were sooo disapointed with Megaton that any news that nintendo will do a "big" announcement, is met by Cynisism.... I dont know what Nintendo can do to honestly hit me and wake me up anymore.... I still love Nintendo though... Of course theres always my secret hope of a Kid Icarus sequel.... If Nintendo announced it id be extatic.

Rich · « **Reply #20 on:** May 07, 2003, 05:40:09 PM »

hey rick i was wondering how you found out about that bonus disk so early. i mean are you good friends with some Nintendo executive or someone.

RickPowers · « **Reply #21 on:** May 07, 2003, 05:46:05 PM »

Hehehehehhe ... I could tell you, but then ... someone would kill me.

I would point out that I wasn't entirely right about that rumor. At least, not at the time. Even ol' Rick makes mistakes.

Gamefreak · « **Reply #22 on:** May 07, 2003, 09:04:47 PM »

This probably won't be at E3...but I want my Gamecube Wars!!!! waaaah....

Rick is really dating someone at NOA

Come on Rick fess up

mouse_clicker · « **Reply #24 on:** May 08, 2003, 03:25:40 AM »

Your only mistake was saying that Majora's Mask would be included, but even you admitted then that the disc wasn't finalized yet and MM could easiloy be cut.
