Quote:New Nintendo Peripherals Revealed
Posted by Josh Freund at 11:03:15 AM EST on 8.26.2004.
Nintendo recently updated the Mario Party 6 Game Info in the press portion of its site. In this update, Nintendo revealed a new peripheral for the GameCube, called the GameCube Mic. Some excerpts from the game info:

"Mario Party animals rejoice - Mario Party 6 takes the crowd-pleasing series to the next level with more than 75 all-new mini-games, six fresh game boards and a Nintendo GameCube Mic."

"Included Nintendo GameCube Mic gives gamers the power to play mini-games by issuing voice commands, and lightning-fast movement around the board gives Mario Party 6 a much faster feel than previous games in the series."

Mario Party 6 will be shown at Game Stars Live. Hopefully, the GameCube Mic will be officially revealed there.

Also, on Nintendo's recently released holiday schedule are two games of interest.

1) Get On Da Mic is scheduled for a November release and is being published by XS Games. This had previously been announced for Playstation 2 and Box only. It's a game in which the player has to rap to songs using a microphone and will therefore probably be the first GameCube title to use the GameCube mic. Since it's coming out in November, that means the GameCube Mic will presumably be released sometime in November (or earlier).

2) Get On Da Floor is scheduled for a November release and is being published by XS Games. This had previously been announced for Playstation 2 and Xbox only. It's a game in which the player has to dance to songs, using, presumably a dance pad. Could that be another new GameCube peripheral? We'll see...

We'll have more on these interesting developments as it comes...

Ooooh, and there might be a DANCE PAD too!! What an incredible NEW idea!!!

Get on Da Mic? No thank you.

It's a good thing Nintendo kept this awesome peripheral a secret, eh? Wouldn't want Sony and MS to copy them!! EH?!!!!?

Woah! Awesome! You're right, no one has thought of this one before... Nintendo certainly was right to keep it a secret!

This is even worse than the whole Mario Sunshine water pack thing. Nintendo is capable of doing some very innovative things, but not everything should be kept a secret! I bet they even keep their lunches secret at Nintendo...



Iwata: Sup, Miyamato, whatcha got there for lunch today?

Miyamoto: *narrows eyes suspiciously at Iwata* Haha, I'm afraid I can't divulge that secret, in fear that someone might steal my idea for lunch! All will be revealed in a few short hours.

Aunoma: Man, I can't imagine what it'll be! But I doubt it'll be as awesome as the kinds of pants that I'm wearing today, which will be revealed at 5 o'clock! *wearing a barrel to cover pants*

Miyamoto: I can't wait to see what kind of pants they are!

Iwata: Woo!!

Might not be too far from the truth...

Haha, I think it'd be awesome if it were true.
