Dinosaur! and Jungle Book Rythem and Groove...
Ubi Soft was rather tight lipped at E3 this year. Yet, there were two game titles that slipped though their clutches. Both of these are Disney based titles. One we knew about, and could the other one be Dolphin's first Dance Dance game? Hmmmmmm. After also talking to Disney, it looks like they want to bring many titles to Nintendo's next console.

Day 3 (Saturday)
My last day of E3 came and went a lot quicker than I wanted. This was the day to take in everything that E3 had to offer; though I wanted to spend a lot of that time at the Nintendo booth. After a slight delay from traffic and parking (apparently there was another event in the... Read more...

After making two NBA Courtside games & the spectacular Excitebike 64, what could Left Field be doing next? IGN64 asks.
After the brilliant response to their Excitebike 64 game, exclusive second-party developers Left Field Studios recently sat down with unknown video game journalist Matt Cassamassina and disussed their past, future, and overall relationship with Nintendo. Interestingly both Left Field and newly announced second party developer Silicon Knights both believe that Nintendo will have no trouble in competing with or topping Sony's super console.

Here what the Omniscient Ed has to say. Listen and heed his wisdom, my children.
Well, the biggest industry event of the year is over and even though I lost a full day, it was a blast. My apologies for not writing while I was actually there, but I never did adjust to West Coast time and was pretty brain dead after each day; definitely not in much shape to write anything coherent....

We are elite. We speak with the Knights in Cyber Armour!
During the last Day of E3, I met with Denis Dyack, President of Silicon Knights and James O'Reilly Director of Technology about the news of Dolphin development. We grabbed some floor outside West Hall, and sat down (which is quite relieving at E3) and had a little chat about their company, and there new deal with Nintendo for Dolphin love.

A massive update regarding the final day of E3.
It was the last day of E3, and I was planning on packing a multitude of things into our final moments of the big show. The final day of E3 is the shortest so we all knew we had to keep moving pretty quickly if we wanted to get everything in. I had a couple of appointments, and I wanted to talk to... Read more...

The man, the myth, the legend.
Today I spent most of the day in the South Hall at the Convention Center talking to various developers and publishers to see if we could see any glimmers of Dolphin support. Billy has a huge update coming in the next day or two about all that, so I am not allowed to talk about it in detail now. But, let me tell you this: It is there.

The grueling saga continues...
I coughed up something rather nasty this morning. Too many damn Mplayer pretzels. Wait, that's lunch for most of us. Well it's the final day of this years E3. Sorry no full recap of yesterdays events. Let's just say I was running around all over that place all day.

Legomania!
Oh yeah, more Dolphin goodness. According to Lego Media producer Darren Potter, they have plans to make 3 games for Dolphin in 2001. Think that's good news? How about tacking on four games for GBA too!
I didn't think this was that big of a deal, but I took a look around their booth and they had... Read more...

Ty and his many, random thoughts.
That's one day down; here's a summary of my day. Sort of.
I hung out at the Mplayer booth awhile - they seem to be generous with the free goodies. I stuck around to watch Romero and Stevie Case fight it out with some other folks. (I scored a tshirt and plenty of pictures - gotta develop 'em. Dig that Q3 motorcycle.)
