A Japanese TV show reports that the GBA will have better visuals than the Sega Saturn.

How does, better than a Sega Saturn sound? Hmmmm. Not bad! But I sure hope the GBA's lifespan and success turns out a tad better than the Saturn fared. Very promising! The boyz over at Gamespot say that a Japanese TV show said the GBA will look better than the Saturn....read on...

Saffire talks about the Sage framework (multi-platform game engine).

Many of us believe that when the Dolphin is fully launched we will see a horde of Playstation 2 titles being ported over to the superior Nintendo console. Well this may seem simple but developing and 'porting' for that matter to various consoles can be a pain staking and sometimes unsuccessful process.... Read more...

We're Back.

by Billy Berghammer - 9:51 pm EST

We survived the non-existant Y2k destruction.

Finally. Everything seems to be back to normal. I hope. And no folks it wasn't Y2K related. Our actual host server had to make a move. Not a good thing. So the Internic had to work it's so called "magic" with the address changes. Not too speedy either. My ISP is going through some changes and had to move me around. I sincerely apologize for being down. This was a totally unplanned event that shouldn't have taken place.

Capcom Skeptical

Capcom President Bill Gardner speaks his mind on the state of the industry and "the Big 3." It isn't all nice either...

Capcom president Bill Gardener seems to have woke up on the wrong side of the bed as he issued the public with his views on the next-gen console race. Without anything nice to say about Sony, Nintendo and Sega he just dishes out negative comments about each company. I mean dissing Sony is great, Sega ok, but Nintendo?! Below are excerpts from FGNonline.
