C Shutt Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 Nintendo have their E3 page up (If it asks for a password, just hit "OK"). The highlight for me is the inexplicable Stage Debut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scabb Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 The first person to explain Stage Debut to me gets all my points. Or add some amusing captions to the screens. Starfox looks rather crappy from those screens, and releasing four swords for Gamecube? Sickening. Let us vomit upon the face of Nintendo. F-Zero is gonna be good though, it would be fun to force people with motion-sickness to play that. Then Nintendo would have to hire staff for all the vomit-cleaning that would need to be done. Which would definitely help the economy out. Everything needs a fecking Game Boy Advance though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swphreak Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 Yes, Star Fox does look crappy. you'd think they'd try to match Rogue Squadron's graphics.... i think Stage Debut is gonna be another "Britney's Dance Crap" or "Barbie Sings" or what ever the heck those crappy singing games are.... Pokemon Stadium is getting old... F-Zero looks ok. I don't see much improvemant from 1080... there's my comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogue Nine Posted May 14, 2003 Share Posted May 14, 2003 I'm lookin' forward to FF: Crystal Chronicles. I still remember that break-up of Square and Nintendo way back when. Very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Jed Posted May 16, 2003 Share Posted May 16, 2003 Well, for good info, go to http://www.planetgamecube.com They've got a lot of good E3 coverage. They put together a DVD each year of footage from the Expo. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted May 16, 2003 Share Posted May 16, 2003 Has anyone else heard that RS2 is a multiplayer co-op bonus in RS3 or am I making things up again?... I'm sure I read it somewhere in IGN... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scabb Posted May 16, 2003 Share Posted May 16, 2003 No, you heard right Lynk, but it's the original Rogue Squadron for N64 I think. The only truly annoying thing about Nintendos lineup are the Zelda games. They seem to require four Gameboy Advances connected to be played properly, and they don't really seem like full games. They could probably have them both on the same disc. I might be wrong. The two Wario games look great, I shall be snapping up Wario World, probably, I enjoyed all the gameboy titles I played and the "alter yourself" element definitely works. The Game Boy Advance title looks pretty fun too, with lots of mini-games to complete in 5 seconds. I want to see a Pokemon game for the Gamecube, not a crappy spin-off or "fight in 3D" thing, but a full game, like Zelda with numbers. I'd buy it. In disguise.

Lynk Former Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 Originally posted by scabb No, you heard right Lynk, but it's the original Rogue Squadron for N64 I think. Judging by the multiplayer screenshots I can tell it's definately NOT RS1. It does look every bit like Rogue Leader, besides it's what IGN has said XD http://cube.ign.com/articles/402/402179p2.html "To top everything off, F5 has included Rogue Squadron II in the game as a multiplayer bonus. Yes, the entire Rogue II. You can play the game in two-player cooperative mode. It's pretty ridiculous. You can actually team up with a friend and fight your way through the entire game, from the Death Star to Bespin and beyond." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scabb Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 I guess that would make more sense, no converting to be done. Guess Rogue Leader didn't fill the disc up much. I was gonna buy Rogue Leader at some point too, I think I'll just wait for Rebel Strike now, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 I wonder how much these games actually do fill up those lil tiny disks huh... I mean they look pretty damn good but do they actually fill em to the brim or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scabb Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 Well, I know for a fact there are a number of PS2 games that can fit on a CD, let alone a DVD, so I guess it's the same for most other consoles. I haven't seen any games on multiple discs on any console, so it'll probably be a while before the capacities are filled. Stick a PS2 or an Xbox disc into your DVD drive and find out, it'd be interesting to see how big the GTA games are. It's impossible to tell with gamecube discs anyway, there's no common way of reading them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scabb Posted May 17, 2003 Share Posted May 17, 2003 Originally posted by Lynk Former Resident Evil comes on two disks... maybe they are being filled a fair way up... *shrugs* Obviously there are a few exceptions, and Gamecube does hold the smallest capacity ¬ Also, Resident Evil is the most boring series ever, and Capcom should really stop churning out sequels, prequels and remakes that are all exactly the same. Slowly tiptoeing around and shooting apparently scary things is totally not cool, and don't talk to me about the "puzzle" elements. Miyamoto rules. I'm glad he can admit that Mario Sunshine wasn't exactly a giant leap forward. He knows exactly what makes a game "good", and focuses on that rather than trying to make a game that will be popular.

Lynk Former Posted May 18, 2003 Share Posted May 18, 2003 Yeah it's hard to get a giant leap forward on gameplay at the moment, I mean back in the day of the n64 we switched from dpad to control stick. All they can do at the moment is give us better graphics and perty it up a bit more... the gameplay itself is hard to effect because we have no new tools to implement them with! And about the RS3 thing. They COULD make it a double disk game, 1 disk with the single player stuff, one with the multiplayer stuff... just a thought Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
