Are we the only people who are excited about Dolphin?
There is definitely something to be said about Marketing and Promotion. It's a sad world when most average people out there don't even know that there are 2 new Nintendo systems coming out next year. "Dolphin what?" is an answer you'll get from a lot of gamers. Why is this you ask?
