DailyRadar may have made a mountain out of a molehill in their latest blunder of an article.

Ahh, our good old friends at DailyRadar... how they continue to prove that they must not have a single person interested in Nintendo in the bunch. Or, I could be wrong, they could just be a bunch of idiots who don't bother to look into their info before posting their drivel.

Why is it that people... Read more...

Question: When will the Dolphin and GameBoy Advance be released in America next year?

Current word is that Nintendo EAD are hard at work preparing a Wave Race sequel for a Dolphin outing!

Nintendo first racing title for the Nintendo 64 was both brilliant and ground breaking. Up to this day Wave Race has remained technically superior to other water based racing titles out there and has definitely stood the test of time. As for a sequel, current word is that Nintendo EAD are hard at... Read more...

The guys at Gamespot are reporting that the Gameboy Advance will also use the tilting technology that will be used in Kirby's Tilt N' Tumble. Looks like we'll be shaking the AGB when it hits U.S. shores next year. Also, I can't help but wonder if Nintendo really likes this technology, might we see... Read more...

In one of the most ill-informed and seemingly ignorant responses ever spoken by an executive, Lorne Lanning, co-founder of Oddworld Inhabitants said the following to Hyper Magazine concerning Dolphin.

C&VG says that they have confirmed that the official name of the Dolphin is Star Cube. Hmf.

Interesting, and scary as well. The boys over at C&VG say they have confirmed that Dolphin will now be called Star Cube. Could it be? Does it upset you or disappoint you. Do you believe it? Read on my friends....

We've discovered the identity of the previously unknown patent of an N64 catridge.

A few days ago we posted a story with some weird pictures taken from the Patent Database of a N64 cartridge that none of us new what they were.

Thanks go to reader Steve Boelcskevy for doing some hardcore investigative work and figuring it out for us.

It is a cartridge for the N64 that was... Read more...

C&VG is reporting that GameBoy Advance is officially confirmed for Spaceworld, but they seem to think there will be no Dolphin. We think otherwise.

Real shocker here folks, but GBA is officially confirmed to be at Spaceworld. Seeing is the GBA technology has been out for quite a while, and developers working with development kits. This Computers and Videogames article seems to say Nintendo will not show Dolphin at Spaceworld this year. We here at PlanetN2000 (at least I do) think that they are fools and don't know what they are talking about. Nintendo never delays anything. Cough...

"Computers and Video Games" derails GameFan's Rare story.

Our story from Gamefan yesterday, is supposedly bogus according to C&VG. To be quite honest folks, the only people that really know what's going on is Shiggy and a few people at the big N. Nintendo has got Spaceworld and Dolphin information very very hidden. And anyone that knows anything has a gun to their heads to keep their pie hole shut.

GameFan has aquired a preliminary list of titles that Rare is expected to show at Spaceworld 2000!

More for the rumor/speculation pile today. After Rarenet Dan's Rare happenins' across the pond, Gamefan online has acquired a preliminary list of titles (for the both the N64 and Dolphin) that Rare's expected to show at Spaceworld 2000. There are two Dolphin titles on this list. The one actually known game is Mickey's 3D Adventure. The other title is unknown at this time. Could it be Killer Instinct 3?

TendoBox delves deep into the potential Dolphin name game.

A couple months ago, the name Star Cube came up and many have speculated that this may be the name for the Next Generation Nintendo System. Some laughed, some threw up...some said no way. Tendobox has looked into this a little bit further...and have discovered some interesting things about this little... Read more...

Would you be a beta tester for NOJ? It pays 9 bucks an hour! And they pay for your travel expenses! Er, I doubt that is for us out of country people. Oh well.

Would you be a beta tester for NOJ? It pays 9 bucks an hour! And they pay for your travel expenses! Er, I doubt that is for us out of country people. Oh well. Core Magazine believes it's for GBA testing. I think Nintendo is forcing people to play nauseating amounts of PS2 games until they are "jaggied" to death. Cough. Here's the meat.

Our Happy Independence Day wishes to you!

Is it a bad thing to have a couple days off from the real world? Hell naw! It gives us some quality time to spend with our families and loved ones. Who are we kidding! Of Course we're playing games! Hell I haven't even had a chance to beat PD yet (yes, I'm pretty freakin' lame) Happy Independence day (well...almost) to all of our US readers out there! And if you are from another country, have a beer anyways. As for Kosta, have a Fosters. :)
