Look...this is simply your opinion. Nearly every MS product I have used has worked just fine. Windows is the only MS product I have that crashes regularly, but I'm always tweaking drivers and such, so that's expected. The fact is, billion dollar corporations and millions of people rely on and use MS products daily. If their products were truly as buggy as you would seem to indicate, they would have died out long ago. That's just common sense. Again, comparing a PC OS to a console is OS is utterly stupid. Period. They are NOTHING alike. Period. You yourself said it earlier...in a stable unchanging environment, any program can run trouble free for years...well, that's exactly what any console, including the XBOX, is. It will not crash any more than any other console out there. Games won't be any more buggy than on any other console. There will be no patches...for one thing, the games don't even install on the HD....or did you not realize this? Probably not. > Hey, I love you too, Mr. Genius. I've already named one (which you rationalize > and deny), so besides not being able to count, you also cannot face up to facts. Which one????? I wasn't sure WTF you were referring to. Just quote what I have said that is a mistake andtell me why it's wrong....I'm still waiting. > At least I'm smart enough to spell "too" correctly. Haha...shoot me, I made a typo...you've made several yourself, genius. Like this one: "and then browse through their knowledgebase"...just FYI, "knowledgebase" should be two words, not one. Pretty lame picking on typos, kid. > I'm saying that MS' E3 hardware was a disappointment. Any MS rationalization or > explanation for that will have to be *seen* now in order to be believed...except > by MS fanboys, of course. Sure, it was disappointing the final hardware was not ready...but why do I actually have to see it to belive it? It's a fact that the GF3 kicks ass....doesn't take a fanboy to figure that one out...and the GPU in the final hardware is a pumped-up version of the GF3. I'm sorry, but there is zero doubt the hardware will be solid. Nvidia and Intel make excellent products. Period. You can "wait and see", that's fine...but it's quite obvious to me that the hardware won't be the downfall of the XBOX. Niether will the OS...it's a console FFS. Just buy the console that has the games that interest you...worrying about the hardware is a pointless exercise.

My birthday is coming up (17 on Sept. 12), and I have told my parents what I want, and we've agreed. I'm getting a PlayStation 2. MGS2, Devil May Cry, Soul Reaver 2, Virtua Fighter/Tekken 4, Shadowman 2, Silent Hill 2, the next RE and the assloads of other PS2 games have finally convinced me. Damn. Any good PS2 games out there now? I've played SSX; not my type of game. And I generally steer clear of the yearly sports games. So ... any input? Also, if anyone has any idea where I could get a good PS2 deal (like a memory card, extra controller, free game bundle, etc.), I'd be much obliged. You're getting all that just for your birthday!? That makes no sense. Or do you mean those games have convinced you to get a PS2? If you're looking for a good deal, get Sony's Gran Turismo 3 A-Spec bundle. $329.99 I've had GT3 since the day it came out and I'm only 17.5 % done with it. It's more than it's money's worth. SSX sucks,you got that right. Then just get an 8 Meg Memory Card $34.99. Some other good games are Ridge Racer V, yes it has jaggies, but it's still a buttload of fun, and I really don't care for Ridge Racer, Ridge Racer Revolution, Rage Racer, and Ridge Racer IV. There's also Onimusha: Warlords and Zone Of the Enders, but they're pretty short. Street Fighter EX3 is a good game, if you like Street Fighter. Oh, for a second controller, get Interact's Storm Chaser Gamepad $29.99, you won't regret it, especially if you plan on getting SFEX3 or Capcom Vs. SNK 2.

Subject: [NG] GameCube to = support HDTV=20 Format

Article in Popular Science by Mr. = Kent


"Luckily for=20 all couch potato world-savers, video game resolution is
about to = get kicked=20 up a notch. Conventional games are delivered in 640
by 480 lines of = resolution, but Star Wars: Rogue Leader-Rogue Squadron 2
for = Nintendo's new=20 GameCube delivers the action in 1,920 by 1,080 lines
of resolution. = That's=20 equivalent to HDTV.

"Of course the three next-generation = consoles --=20 GameCube, Microsoft
Xbox, and Sony PlayStation 2 -- Nintendo's is = the only=20 one that supports
high-resolution games right out of the box. Xbox=20 customers will be able
to purchase an upgrade, but there are no = plans yet=20 for higher-resolution
Xbox games. And PlayStation 2 has no = high-resolution=20 plans, period.

"Frankly, even Nintendo is hedging. The company = hasn't=20 announced any
high-resolution games of its own."



 
A few things. Isn't 640 x 480 (as far = as console=20 go) considered Hi-Res? Does anybody know what resolution a Dreamcast = game=20 running through the VGA Box is at? Will Nintendo have a device to hook = the NGC=20 to a HDTV? Will other games suffer if played through a HDTV? Will = somebody buy=20 me a TV with S-Video and Component inputs?

I have to say this game is AMAZING!!! This is an RPG straight out, no strings attached, no action/RPG just pure RRRRPPPPGGGGG!!! This is how ports SHOULD be, same music, graphical enhancements and a few extras (however not annoying). They have added a personality system into the game which can change and is also determined at the start by 'fate' questions which change each time you start a new game as well as one out of 7 or 8 scenarios in which you can be a monster or whatever they cast you as. Your actions at this bizzare yet interesting start of the game determines what your personality ultimately becomes. Battle actions have been added to the characters to give them more life and town exploring speed has been GREATLY increased to get rid of that annoying walking-and-waiting feeling. If you like RPG's and have a GBA or GBC then you're not doing yourself a favour in passing this game up. It has a good storyline, the game is NOT for kids (some languague just isnt appropriate), the game itself will take at least 50 hours of gameplay without working on side quests, 7 character classes (I believe) all with their own attributes/spells/etc, hundreds of weapons/armour/spells/secrets and a VERY gripping soundtrack. One more thing about this game is that it stays true to it's roots in that the game is not an easy one to complete. I would say it is medium-hard in difficulty especially when collecting some of the orbs (ie the silver orb). I find too many games today to be too easy or frustratingly hard. Dragon warrior III has found the happy medium while dragging your further inward.

Looks terrific. Metroid Prime might also be on the list if it gets some good comments before launch. I'm also thinking of Eternal Darkness, Rogue Leader and Luigi's Mansion. Of course, that's only what I can think of at the moment and I don't know how many games I'll be able to pick up. I guess, if I can get only one, I'd get either Metroid or SSB.

Not only is = Microsoft=20 encouraging retailers to sell the higher-priced Xbox packages, Microsoft = also is=20 specifying how much shelf space stores must dedicate to the new product. = To=20 ensure retailers' cooperation, Microsoft is tying allocations of Xbox = units and=20 extra marketing dollars to its requests, retailers confirmed.

The = console=20 is not due in stores until Nov. 8, but many merchants--including = Amazon.com, K-B=20 Toys, Electronics Boutique, Babbage's, GameStop, Software Etc. and=20 FuncoLand--let consumers pre-order Xbox.

That practice backfired = for Sony=20 Corp. when it cut back the number of PlayStation 2 consoles available on = launch=20 day last year because of manufacturing problems. That left consumers who = had=20 pre-ordered a console empty-handed and angry. Sony, anticipating such = problems,=20 had discouraged pre-orders.

Microsoft's strategy, intended to = maximize=20 revenue from so-called early adopters eager to lay their hands on the = new=20 console, is risky, analysts said. If pre-orders don't catch on, = consumers could=20 view Xbox as a dud, dampening enthusiasm before the console=20 debuts.

"They're overestimating demand," said P.J. NcNealy, = senior=20 analyst at Granter Group Inc. in San Jose. "That could result in a = near-fatal=20 first step."

Sean McGowan, director of research for Gerard = Kilauea=20 Mattoon in New York, said it is surprising that a newcomer to the = console=20 business, even if it's Microsoft, would take such an aggressive stance. = "This is=20 above and beyond the other deals in the industry," he said.

The = program=20 also runs the risk of alienating hard-core gamers, whom Microsoft relies = on to=20 generate buzz about Xbox.

Glenn Young, an avid gamer in Cheviot = Hills,=20 said he dislikes the terms of the pre-order program.

"It's not = cool if=20 they try to dictate which games you get," Young said.

In contrast = to=20 Microsoft, Nintendo Corp. is not attaching incentives = for=20 retailers to bundle its upcoming GameCube console with = software=20 or accessories.

"I'm not sure what these programs get you, except = a lot=20 of marketing frenzy," said Perrin Kaplan, a = Nintendo=20 spokeswoman.

"You guys have it real easy. I never had it like this where I grew up. But I
send my kids here because, the fact is, you go to one of the best schools in
the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you, it doesn't matter. You were born
rich, and your going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you:
take dead aim ... on the rich kids. Get them in the crosshairs ... and take
them down. Just remember, they can buy anything ... but they can't buy
backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you."

- Herman Blume

Nintendo would probably make it a 64-Bit. People would see it say "32-bit"
and they'd be like "I'm sure the N64 is 64-bit, that one's better". Or
perhaps the GCN is 128-bit.

Hello,

Thanks for your e-mail.  I wanted to let you know that the Nintendo
GameCube is, basically, a 32-bit system.  Of course, with Nintendo's
history of releasing quality games, you'll see that the Nintendo GameCube
is capable of much greater quality than even the Nintendo 64!  To be
helpful, here's the latest information we have about the system:

the

Anyway,
I'll be around if you guys have any questions,

What do you mean he asked that no one post anything from the footage of the
games for fear of such reactions from the public?

So, it's not as good as the FMV, but I'm not disappointed by what I've seen. Next up is the delay. This is very disheartening. Microsoft's power house is coming out earlier. Not a good sign. I guess that I'll at least be home for the launch (Thanksgiving break starts the 17th). Guess my options are a bit limited to Luigi's Mansion and Pikmin, though (still don't know if I'll get Pikmin, but it holds a little interest). On to Zelda. The enemies: kinda cool. The environments: could use some work, but not terrible. Link.... uh, Link? Where's Link? Did they forget to put him in this game. What's that? Huh? You're joking, right? THAT'S Link?! Seriously, is this supposed to be Link or a friggin puppet? You know, I'm likely to take a lot of sh*t by saying this, but I don't think the look of this game is really so terrible. I mean, I definitely would've preferred the original Spaceworld footage, but, the more I see this footage, the more I think that it's at least workable. After all, Miyamoto has done some incredible things in the way of gameplay in the past and I've never played a bad Zelda game (only ones missed were Adventure of Link and Oracle of Seasons). But Link looks... well, sh*tty. If they were going for something like this, I think they should've used the type of model they had in the Nintendo Power comics for a Link to the Past or the one they had in Oracle of Ages when he first sees Nayru (for those that haven't played it, in this scene, it switches from the overhead view to one showing Link standing in awe of Nayru's beauty). Well, hoping this one changes in the future...

People might react very negatively about it. Heck, you wouldn't believe how uneasy I felt about watching that video the first time, since it's definitely not what I expected.

Same situation for Majora's Mask. So, for the heck of it, I went back and read IGN's review of it, and just started thinking about some of the technical aspects of it. As IGN said, at some points, the game is keeping track of up to 50 people. That's just incredible. And it's (in my opinion) a very worthwhile addition. The quests for the masks and all the lives that you aid make it a very enjoyable game. If your brother is going to sell it, why don't you just take it instead?

Miyamoto is quoted as saying that the footage is a very early demo, so I'm sure the backgrounds and other such graphics will be added later.

The game's old dark, realistic look has been replaced by a much more stylized, cartoon-like appearance complete with a simplistically designed Link and all-new comedy elements. Designer Shigeru Miyamoto recently explained the company's decision to change the graphic look of Legend of Zelda.

"The video footage of Legend of Zelda we showed at the E3 show was almost identical to the one we first showed at Space World 2000. Actually, we were not lying to you about what we were doing. Well, as a matter of fact, at the time of E3 we were hiding the secret. But one year ago at Space World 2000, we were seriously working on the version of Legend of Zelda you saw at the event. We were repeating so many of Link's experiences, and we were trying to decide on what new direction the new Zelda should take, and after that I began to wonder what the idealistic age of Link is. In a new Zelda, is a grown up Link something I really wanted to pursue?

"As you know, if one product receives rave reviews and becomes a hit, then the next year there are a number of similar games following the trend. A look at the movie industry, or animation made in Japan, they are following a similar trend and in the end only the very enthusiastic movie lovers can tell the difference. But the general public can never tell them apart. And that is what we are most afraid of. So more in detail, what we are now doing is putting emphasis on making our games better than the others and we are not ignoring the importance of making something different.

In the game industry the people that are most sought after are the people with better technology than skill, rather than the people who love to challenge themselves to make something very fun and deliver breakthrough ideas. That kind of situation I really hate. So that's why I told my staff members that they should have more freedom to create anything they like, and at the same time I've been telling other people my idea for Zelda. So we have completed many experiments and this is the result. And I think the video that I showed you today represents the course that we will take with the next Zelda for GameCube. I can tell you that development on the game is making very good progress right now.

One thing I'm afraid of is that people who already saw Link in the very beautiful graphics may be looking forward to the much more sophisticated looking version of him [Space World 2000 footage] in the next Zelda.

Jefferson" Subject: Re: [NG] A Disappointing Spaceworld Date: 23 Aug 2001 18:30:55 -0500 My thoughts - Metroid: It's doesn't look bad. Also, none of the pics are direct feed so hopefully that's why they aren't impressive. I'm more worried about gameplay, but considering that they 'held back' at E3 I'm guessing they're doing the same here. The Delay: It's Nintendo. However, it's only two weeks, that's all. It's closer to the hoilday weekend AND giving you a bit more time to save money for your games and accessories. Also, the reason they say they're doing it is to ensure that there will be enough GC's at launch to meet demand. Maybe they could launch on the 5th, but it's better for consumers (i.e. - people buying them at launch) so that there's more to go around. Hopefully, my early pre-order will net me a black one. Launch: How many games can you reasonably paly? Plus, this was the pre-show media event. Are there going to be more 3rd party games inside? For my tastes, I've got enough to pick and choose and still have some other things I want. Zelda: When I saw the pics, I WAS disappointed. However, after downloading the movie and seeing it in action, it LOOKS GREAT. I love cartoons and it's does look like a cartoon. I don't have a problem with it. I'm not hot on the way Link looks, but the rest of the package looks great. I'm STILL waiting for more third party action though.

So, it's not as good as the FMV, but I'm not disappointed by what I've seen. Next up is the delay. This is very disheartening. Microsoft's power house is coming out earlier. Not a good sign. I guess that I'll at least be home for the launch (Thanksgiving break starts the 17th). Guess my options are a bit limited to Luigi's Mansion and Pikmin, though (still don't know if I'll get Pikmin, but it holds a little interest). On to Zelda. The enemies: kinda cool. The environments: could use some work, but not terrible. Link.... uh, Link? Where's Link? Did they forget to put him in this game. What's that? Huh? You're joking, right? THAT'S Link?! Seriously, is this supposed to be Link or a friggin puppet? You know, I'm likely to take a lot of sh*t by saying this, but I don't think the look of this game is really so terrible. I mean, I definitely would've preferred the original Spaceworld footage, but, the more I see this footage, the more I think that it's at least workable. After all, Miyamoto has done some incredible things in the way of gameplay in the past and I've never played a bad Zelda game (only ones missed were Adventure of Link and Oracle of Seasons). But Link looks... well, sh*tty. If they were going for something like this, I think they should've used the type of model they had in the Nintendo Power comics for a Link to the Past or the one they had in Oracle of Ages when he first sees Nayru (for those that haven't played it, in this scene, it switches from the overhead view to one showing Link standing in awe of Nayru's beauty). Well, hoping this one changes in the future...

I think the though of it was that Nintendo knows where the they make the most money, and that's with the younger segment of the market. So, they aren't going to give up on them anytime soon. The article also mentioned that they feel that's the age group of the market that determines what's fun or not. It seems like they're still focused on younger gamers but are going to throw a few more bones to older gamers than before, but not at the expense of the younger ones. Maybe Conker's sales left a bad taste in their mouth. Elliot "Let's face it, Nintendo's system is for kids," says Robbie Bach, Xbox's gruff-voiced team leader. "We're for sophisticated gamers.

I really pissed off not because of the 2 weeks. Smash bros melee coming out in Dec and I'm not buying any game until then. What I really mad about is that they are now releasing the system days after the Xbox release. They already know that the xbox is coming out the 8th. They could still make the 5th release date, but just with less systems. They will no doubt lose a few customers to the xbox this way.

Maybe, but why does that matter to you? Is it because you want to see some list that has NINTENDO GAMECUBE as Number One?

Even so, it's not like these game have been 'canceled', just moved back a few days. So, there won't be as many at launch. But, immeadieatly after, there will still be some good games coming, unlike the DC and PS2 launches which had a lack of good games after the initial launch. Nintendo didn't want a repeat of what happened to Sony during the PS2 launch. Yeah, they might lose some customers, but Microsoft has to gain more than Nintendo will probably lose to come out on top.

I really pissed off not because of the 2 weeks. Smash bros melee coming out in Dec and I'm not buying any game until then. What I really mad about is that they are now releasing the system days after the Xbox release. They already know that the xbox is coming out the 8th. They could still make the 5th release date, but just with less systems. They will no doubt lose a few customers to the xbox this way. Especially with xbox's big marketing advertising budget which is about 5 times bigger than Nintendo's advertising budget. -Vi [ To quit the NGamers mailing list, send the message "unsubscribe ] [ NGamers" (without the quotes) to majordomo@xmission.com ] _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp [ To quit the NGamers mailing list, send the message "unsubscribe ] [ NGamers" (without the quotes) to majordomo@xmission.com ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Vi On Subject: Re: [NG] A Disappointing Spaceworld Date: 24 Aug 2001 14:06:09 -0400 (EDT) On Fri, 24 Aug 2001, Gregory A.

Date: 25 Aug 2001 12:50:43 EDT The following was originally meant for the forums at PlanetGameCube.com but I never received my conformation e-mail from their forum providers. I do still think it applies here as well, though. Enjoy. Let me start with the following: despite words to the contrary, Nintendo knows what it's doing... Having surfed the web looking for responses to the news from Spaceworld 2001 one thing has become clear: the internet unanimously is disgusted with Nintendo's plans. Many people on the net have bashed Miyamoto's new brain child, "The Legend of Zelda"; fan sites of competing consoles have taken this opportunity to do some serious laughing; and even Nintendo fan sites have begun to post editorials about Nintendo's mistakes these last few days [Nintendojo]. But seriously folks: where has the media massively misconstrued the meaning of "The Nintendo Difference?" I figured that someone had to step in and set things straight because the majority of posters are currently to angry to care to take the time to post long messages and the people in charge of websites are too busy cleaning up server problems and actually posting the news. So here goes, item by item: (Note - * denotes a reason NOT, ** denotes a reason FOR) 1. Nintendo's Launch Delay Personally I couldn't believe the words on the screen. I figured that PGC was playing a horribly mean trick on its readers or had misinterpreted something along the way. My heart sank (as I'm sure most of yours did) and I fell into a sort of videogame depression... two more long weeks. I pondered over the issue for hours... lost some sleep over the issue... until finally it dawned on me: * Nintendo didn't delay the system to prepare the new color in adequate quantities. That would have been silly as most people will probably prefer a black system to the indigo anyways which would cause some to go unsold (read: for a little while ;-). * Nintendo didn't delay the system to prepare more titles for launch. We already know that Luigi's Mansion and Wave Race are 100% done and Pikmin and SSB:M are 90% done. Nintendo has enough first party titles to be solid. * Nintendo didn't delay the system to find a separate week from Microsoft. This could prove harmful even, not helpful. ** Nintendo DID delay the system to sell through ALL 700,000 systems in one week!! Think about it: what's the busiest shopping weekend in the year in America? Thanksgiving Weekend! Nintendo pushed back the release date to let Microsofts system sell out [ingenious]. With that threat out of the way Nintendo has the whole weekend to itself. This is when the average families parents will see a PS2 for $300, perhaps an XBOX here and there for $300+, and a Nintendo GAMECUBE for $200! Which is the average person going to pick up? (Remember the average person would not post on this site so none of you qualify as an average person ;-). The GAMECUBE will be the quickest selling item this holiday season. Pure marketing Genius. 2. The movement of launch titles * Nintendo did NOT delay the games to piss you off ;-) ** Nintendo DID delay the games (namely SSB:M) to give parents and those who will play the system from the get-go something to look forward to. Think about it: what would an average gamer do if they got SSB:M and say Wave Race at launch... they would see the other Nintendo games as unnecessary purchases and wait for the newer stuff [some of which, like Star Fox, have been delayed for more polishing time]. Nintendo learned from the launch of the GBA and PS2: too many titles too soon = less money on the mass market for each development company per title. ** Nintendo DID delay the games to make room for some of its other titles (Pikmin, Wave Race, Luigi's Mansion). They are a business and they do need to make money on something in which the invested. In this case QUALITY games that may seem more to be niche titles [though perhaps they are...]. 3. "The Legend of Zelda" * Miyamoto did not change "The Legend of Zelda" to piss you off ;-) * Miyamoto did not change "The Legend of Zelda" to keep the kiddie image. ** Miyamoto DID change "The Legend of Zelda" to take the series into a new direction (a yet unproven one at that). ** Miyamoto DID change "The Legend of Zelda" because he felt what was happening was more of the same (close to the previous reason but not quite). *************************************** Where did everyone lose faith? This is my question to everyone of the readers and indeed to every Nintendo Fanboy... When was the last time you were displeased with something made by Nintendo? [Don't give 'kiddie' as a reason... even the first Pokemon was fun, whether you bought all the accessories or not, the game was fun]. NINTENDO WILL NOT RELEASE A GAME IT BELIEVES TO BE OF LOW QUALITY. I am very positive that if "The Legend of Zelda" turns into nothing more than an interactive childrens cartoon, EAD will not release it. Why am I so positive? Because ever since Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo Entertainment System I have believed in one thing: The Nintendo Quality Standard. How do I know the Nintendo Quality Standard hasn't wavered? Majora's Mask was even better than Ocarina of Time (in terms of side-quests, etc.); Billy has stated that Wave Race: Blue Storm is vastly IMPROVED over the E3 version: that's three months of pure polishing... what other company will give you that?; and finally Metroid was heald back from Spaceworld 2001: Nintendo felt it wasn't up to standards and therefore didn't release more than six seconds of gameplay footage. *-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* In closing I would like everyone to take a deep breath and calm down. "The Legend of Zelda" will probably offer so many new gameplay features and so much style that we will all be so immersed in the game that we wouldn't be able to imagine it any other way... Trust Nintendo on this one: if you've liked what they've done so far, you'll probably like what they're doing now.

It's something new and that's exciting. The delay isn't too bad...13 days is nothing for this N64 vet. These two "changes" that Nintendo has made hurt the company and that's what I'm upset about. Somehow Nintendo managed to steal E3 without showing the BIG SIX franchises(Mario, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Pokemon, Metroid, & Mario Kart). Momentum coming into SW was incredible. I waited all summer for this. How Nintendo is shooting itself in the foot: The cartoon shaded Zelda might be innovative(Popolocrois for PS2 is just like it though) and new BUT it reinforces the kiddie image that hurt it back in 1996/97 when it became apparent that the PS would remain in front. Sure the kid market is lucrative but Nintendo can't afford to lose the teen and adult gamers who are or will be a majority. After all these efforts to lose the kiddie image with Conker and ED the Nintendo does a 180 and makes its second biggest franchise look like a saturday morning cartoon. You really think the many gamers on the XBox/GCN fence will opt for a GCN now??? Please! The delay shocked me even more. RELEASE THE SYSTEM WITH 200K UNITS LESS AS LONG AS YOU BEAT XBOX TO MARKET!!! Sure PS2 had a shortage but is it still suffering? No, not at all. Just how many units can be made in 13 days? I think the real reason is obvious........THE GAMES WEREN'T READY. Nintendo once again had a delay in software but to cover up that fact they push up the release date. Instead of waiting a month for the next batch of 1st party titles(SSB, etc) we only wait 15 days....whoopty doo. In closing I think Miyamoto is losing it. The creativity is still there but the mainstream appeal might be slipping. Pikmin, Zelda, and Mario Sunshine(Mario should always be in mushroom kingdom not in real world environments...that's why I didn't like Sonic Adventure) could be testaments to this. I hope I'm wrong. the good side of this is that GCN will sell all of its consoles regardless and it should catch up to the Xbox by mid December so the different release dates will probably be forgotten. Also, the casual gamer isn't yet aware of the new Zelda and probably doesn't care. We'll see how this generation plays out.

I could see a possible argument for that in Zelda (get to that in a sec), but not in Pikmin or Mario. For one, how do we really know that this "real world" setting isn't just one stage, or, for that matter, isn't the Mushroom Kingdom? If we think about this, the Kingdom has undergone numerous changes in appearance over time. In MRPG, it looked almost like a medieval kingdom. In Paper Mario, it looked like a slightly more modern village (not much more, mind you). Besides this, think about some of the other Mario games. In SMB2, he was in Subcon. In SMW, it was Dinosaur World. SMW2 brought us to Yoshi's Island. So, seriously, there have been a number of Mario games that take place outside the Mushroom Kingdom. And, speaking of Sonic Adventure, they did show portions in the Mystic Ruins, right? (with some excellent overworld music, not to mention) With Pikmin, I see Miyamoto exploring uncharted areas. I mean, seriously, casual gamers probably wouldn't give a d*mn, since this is a new franchise. If they don't like it (by that, I mean the look of it), they'll likely pass it over without a second thought. It's just trying new things, which I admire Miyamoto for doing. Speaking of which, we arrive at Zelda. I do understand your reasoning here that a radical change such as this to Nintendo's possibly most well known and beloved series may turn people off and have them think that it's too much of a kiddy thing. This is my biggest fear, and this is, in some places, happening. After the uproar is over, however, I'd say this game has a chance to do well. The same sort of thing happened with the release of screens of Paper Mario. People hated that it didn't have this wonderful 3D look, but it turned out great in the end. Though, I admit, it's not exactly the same as the change to Zelda. Still, I have my hopes. -Satoshi _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp [ To quit the NGamers mailing list, send the message "unsubscribe ] [ NGamers" (without the quotes) to majordomo@xmission.com ] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: "Dave" Subject: Re: [NG] Mushroom Kingdom Date: 25 Aug 2001 17:55:01 -0400 This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ------=_NextPart_000_0021_01C12D8F.0FE195E0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable ----- Original Message -----=20 From: Lloyd Millard Mccoy Jr.=20 To: Dave=20 Cc: NGamers@lists.xmission.com=20 Sent: Saturday, August 25, 2001 4:11 PM Subject: [NG] Nintendo is shooting itself in the foot (Mario should always be in mushroom kingdom not in real world environments...that's why I didn't like Sonic Adventure)=20 Lloyd ----- Would you care to tell us what the Mushroom Kingdom really looks like? = It is that flat 2-D place with a few pipes and staircases made from = blocks place?

From Software is bringing Rune in December, and advertising it heavily here
for some reason already despite the fact that the game is only 30% complete;
it plays pretty well. And I believe they're bringing another RPG in March

I don't consider any game where you have direct physical control of your characters in battle like Zelda an RPG. I do know what RPG stands for but I always think of multiple party members travelling together with weapons, armour, items, spells, Stats (intelligence, strength, vitality, luck, etc etc etc) that get experience points, go up levels and obtain currency to purchase more goods.

I just played all the new tracks and they are great. I started doing powerslides right from the first track. Much more fun than the Konami's krazy racer. I'm gonna try out the single cart, multi gba's later tonight.

I even managed to nab this wicked Monkey Ball poster there; and even Gongon is on there=) Anyway, the game looks wicked and I heartily recommend everyone give it a shot before you just pass it off. It really is more fun than you think it is; especially since it has such variety in level design, multiplayer (it has 3 modes there), and it's mini-games which go from golf, to bowling, to, my favorite, billiards.

A built in Google search tool is included as well as a builtin download manager. The best part of the program tho is that it is made like a filemanager.

If you draw the graph y=3Dx where 1<x<2 then = extrapolation=20 would occur if
you extended the line beyond x=3D1 and x=3D2.  = Of course=20 you do not exactly
know this is graph goes beyond its constraints = but you=20 can use this form
of 'guessing'.

Likewise, interpolation = would be=20 seeing that when x=3D1/2 y=3D1/2 or any
other set of coordinates = set out by=20 this graph.

THEREFORE extrapolation in a conversation would be = taking=20 his main train
of thought and extending it to find his true meaning = about=20 the
subject....  make sense?

 
For once you made perfect sense, Mr.=20 Fentie.
