News from the inside...??

From certain sources, there may be little revealed at Nintendo's Gamers' Summit about Dolphin. Personally (IMO) that makes a truckload of sense. There are a bunch of big N64 games still to be released. Perfect Dark, Excitebike, Pokemon Stadium, (and this Zelda thing)...and not to mention all the GBC... Read more...

Where's that announcement?

Yeah, you're all wondering where this major announcement is. What's the deal huh? Rarenet said last week there would be this big wonderful announcement...yadda yadda. Then it was supposed to be today, or was it yesterday? I forget. Now people are hinting at Thursday. SO WHAT THE HELL IS THE DEAL? IGN had this little story on their site as a teaser. Read on, and I'll speculate later.

Head to Nintendojo to see their new editorial on Nintendo'd new "Dream Team" of 2nd parties!

Back in the good old days of the Nintendo 64's inception, Nintendo chose a select few of developers around the globe to be their 'Dream Team'. There is much debate as to wether or not they succeeded in their goal, but it seems the Big N are at it again and Nintendojo is running a new special that... Read more...

IGN64 chats w/BOSS Games, who seemingly have Dolphin & PS2 plans.

IGN64 had a few words with Boss Game Studios' vice president of product development Colin Gordon about its upcoming racer SR3K and its possibility for being a developer for Dolphin. Can you smell a racer? I think you can.

Hey folks! Just wanted to say thanks to all our Staff (past and present) and our readers for getting us to this level. As of last night we cracked the 200K mark. I was going to have this HUGE party, but the printing company messed up the Invitations. %$&*! It was a real mess...so I decided to celebrate by purchasing a GBC to replace my stolen one. ;)

The BBC video game show Newsround mentions DVD Playback for Dolphin...

Maybe this is fluff as well. Or could it be what will be soon to be announced Dolphin information? The BBC's popular gaming television show Newsround recently did a preview of the next-generation console war. In this preview the host says Nintendo told him there would be DVD playback. This means movies folks! But it is in Japan only...so far. To see a copy of the show....click the link! (you will need Real Player)

Rare drops hint of a new game in development...

Rare is allegedly going to reveal (pictures?) a new game this very Thursday; in time to show it at E3, it seems. It can't be a Dolphin project... can it? This staffer has a hankerin' for a 2D fighter...

According to a certain source Rare will reveal a "killer game" on the 27th. Unfortunately... Read more...

Could this be first indication of a Donkey Kong for Dolphin, or is it just fluff?

In the media that's what we call a lesser news, kind of a "oh that's nice" story filling an area that normally would hold a more important news story. In this case, it's IGN64 filling a space that they would like to have some BIG dolphin news. News that isn't here yet. Maybe tomorrow. But instead they have this.

Yeah, yeah, you've heard the other story about this a couple days ago. We've finally got our paws on the Press Release.
