Not that it was bad at all anyways, but IGN64 is putting a little treat together for all tomorrow. This is what they have to say:

It's no big secret that Nintendo has another console in the works. It's tentatively titled Dolphin, and it's scheduled to come out late next year -- just in time,... Read more...

Heheheh. Heheheh. *Evil maniacal laugh*

I was gone all day working at a Vans Skateboarding Tournament, so thanks to an anonymous AOL reader out there for giving me the low down about the story. Nintendojo has word that IBM's Gekko is a serious powerhouse. I quote, Gekko is "Blowing away" the PSX2 hardware. Would you expect anything less? Here's the skinny...

Matsushita Electric and Nintendo Agree To Collaborate On Digital Network Home Electronics Strategy

LOS ANGELES (May 12, 1999)-- Matsushita Electric Industrial Co., Ltd. and Nintendo today announced that they have agreed to a comprehensive collaboration in the area of digitally networked home electronics.

An odd rumor about the "Dolphin's" OS surfaces.

Diggin' around on Magic Box, I found an old but interesting rumor on what platform Dolphin will be developed. Again...this is a rumor.

The Project Dolphin's development platform will be the BEOS, not Linux or Windows CE as previously predicted.

What is BEOS?

In the case of the chip size of the IBM "Gekko" processor. DAMN, that sh#$ is small! Nintendo 2000 News posted a picture and a little clip.

Here is a picture of the 0.18 micron copper IBM chip over an N64 control pad. The Nintendo Dolphin CPU, dubbed the "Gekko" processor should be very similar to the one in the picture. Notice how incredibly small it is! this is amazing when you think of how large traditional Aluminum CPU's are. Copper... Read more...

Shiggy working on a Dolphin game, and info on Matsushita's new plant!

Nintendojo serves up two quick but informative stories this weekend. One dealing with the big "M" working on a Dolphin game...

Shigeru Miyamoto is in early stages of development on his first "Dolphin" title. He reportedly has working storyboards for the game. Nintendo is also said to be working on a package of development tools so software development by 3rd parties could begin before the hardware is complete. --core magazine.

More fun with crappy laptops

Alright, I'm giving another go at this with the laptop. Please bear with anything that looks stupid :) Everything will be back to normal on Tuesday. I miss my home PC dearly. But while I am away, if there is something out there that I missed, please e-mail me at this address! Thanks!

Yeah, it's a late update right now, and I apologize. I am currently away from home. If something doesn't look right it's because this is my first time updating from my laptop. Yes, I took the plunge and bought a laptop for my travels. I ordered a laptop over the net in an auction, and I will admit,... Read more...

Midway is developing a new reincarnation of Spy Hunter for a Nintendo console. Now the big question is, N64 or Dolphin? Here's what IGN64 has to say. Thanks for the tip from Jim German! (I was playin' TFC last night)

Surf with the Big Kahuna!

Well we were pretty sure of this already, it has actually been confirmed by the good people over at Nintendorks:

Though speculated since the first announcement of Nintendo's next console system, Tokyo Nintendo officially announced today that project Dolphin will have access to the Internet. This is definitely not "stop-the-presses" material, but just another thing to put on the Dolphin's tab.

It's all about the Benjamines. And Nintendo's makin' em.

Nintendojo has a sweet story on the big N's earnings for the past fiscal year. Too large to reprint the whole thing, but here's a little snip about how much dough they rolled in.

Nintendo raked in the equivalent of $1.35 billion in fiscal 1999, with a group current profit of 165.2 billion yen.... Read more...
