Is it just me, or is this guy making it sound like Nintendo is going to get a lot more aggressive than they have been?

They said the same thing with the GameCube though. And we all saw how that one turned out.

I can't hear but Nintendo said a week ago that LOT of fans will be REALLY happy with the direction Nintendo is going right now. This time, they're going to listen to fans

Severed Hand of Skywalker · May 11, 2004, 02:40 PM

So fan nintendo's biggest dis towards Sony is that Sony uses proprietary memory sticks?

HUH??!!!

Yeah, nothing against Nintendo, but they have, for several years now, put on a good show at E3 but failed to deliver in sales.

I'm glad I preordered my PSP 6 months ago

GameCube:

1) Will use DVD's because they are "listning to fans"
2) Will have online play because they are "listning to fans"
3) Will have mature games because they are "listning to fans"
4) Will have a huge selection of games.
5) Developers will LOVE developing for this system.

So what happened?

Agasthya · May 11, 2004, 02:44 PM

they should take lessons from Steve.

Wait, is this on the current webcast as an update to the GameCube? Or is this what was said years ago at a previous E3?

MindFad · May 11, 2004, 02:49 PM

The new GBA Zelda looked awesome! Capcom is developing it! YES!

Shhhh! DS time!

That is what they said before they released the GameCube. Same song and dance.

DS look much better in real form instead of that 3D crap

Severed Hand of Skywalker · May 11, 2004, 02:51 PM

The DS is the same size as the PSP.

"DS" mean Developers system?

metroid DS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MindFad · May 11, 2004, 02:55 PM

Metroid DS.

I came.

Severed Hand of Skywalker · May 11, 2004, 02:56 PM

He just showed Metriod for DS. Horribly implemented. The biggest innovation for the second screen is what everyone guessed... a boring MAP.

He said you can also tap the screen where you want to shoot. Awkward.

Agasthya · May 11, 2004, 02:56 PM

are they going to talk about the successor to GameCube today?

Ya I know, I was telling you in a nice way.

Anywho, the DS has voice recognition for games. "So only your voice can control the game." Thank god, imaging what would happen if my sister yelled Fire or jump from the other room.

Nebagakid · May 11, 2004, 03:00 PM

hey, AIM/iChat at nintendo

Severed Hand of Skywalker · May 11, 2004, 03:02 PM

It will not be called DS when it ships this year.

Severed Hand of Skywalker · May 11, 2004, 03:08 PM

BOOYA! Zelda is back and he is not cell shaded!

Agasthya · May 11, 2004, 03:09 PM

Yeah.

I might have to buy a GC for that game and the new Starfox (despite the walking crap

)

fireside · May 11, 2004, 03:16 PM

but i wonder if that Zelda is for GCN or Revolution.

probably GCN since he said that they aren't showing any demos of revolution related games.

starman · May 11, 2004, 03:17 PM

Not watching the feed. What does Zelda look like? Spaceworld demo? Something new?

first gcn zelda demo. Link fighting on horseback. awesome. awesome. awesome. super photorealistic.

MindFad · May 11, 2004, 03:20 PM

Nintendo totally came through. The DS sounds awesome. The potential things developers will do with it.... Wow. And seeing that Metroid DS did it for me.

And Zelda. Just ... wow. Miyamoto really pulled the wool over our eyes.

I'm spent.

Is there a drool emoticon?

This is an actual PRODUCT, right? Not like the SW Demo where they tease us?

Dude, better than the demo. The environments, models, lighting, and texture work looked great, even from a crappy webcast. You have to see him in environments, instead of up close with Ganondorf like the SW demo.

yeah yeah

all that matters is that zelda is back and will probably be better than ever.

Severed Hand of Skywalker · May 11, 2004, 03:26 PM

i am just scared of 2 things.

1) Last minute they change the look of Zelda like they did last time.
2) the Game gets pushed back so much they decide to wait for the next system to make it a launch title. Like that last starfox game.

Adam Betts · May 11, 2004, 03:28 PM

what are you talking about? they previewed the superphotorealistic Zelda like, 3 years before WW came out, then the next year they showed us the cell-shaded Zelda. The year after that they showed us a revised cell-shaded Zelda.
