Alright, here's my response to each point:
Quote:Im sure that in 3 to 4 years Onlinegaming will be mainstream and we know that we have to move.
Yeah that'll be too late yet again, Nintendo. Good job being the industry leader!
Quote:The DS will get onlinegaming sooner then you think.
Oh geez do I hope that's true.
Quote:Square enix and Nintendo is working on DS online..
Couldn't care less about FF CC, but Nintendo better bring Four Swords and AC online or else!!
Quote:Mario Baseball is a joint project with Namco
Aw, no Camelot? Oh well, Namco makes some decent baseball games.
Quote:Mario 128 is under development for GC.. but its still a secret when it will be released..
!!!! He better not be fucking with us here! Our emotions are
very fragile when it comes to the topic of Mario 128!
*prays that it'll be at E3*
Quote:We are making a new Pokemon Game for GC.. with STRONG ALLIES...
Yeah well if it's not a full RPG (don't give me any of that "there IS a full RPG in Coliseum!" bullshit, DJ) then I don't give a damn.
Quote:I personally like Chibirobo from Skip and Otama from Yut Saito
Saito is making Chibiro? Count me in!
Quote:Earthbound 2(mother 3) will be released soon!!
Bah, I hate you Nintendo! You don't even want to release EB1&2 in the U.S.!!!
Quote:We are making a new Pokemon Game for GC.. with STRONG ALLIES...
Strong allies...that makes me think of Capcom, but then lately they haven't been acting much like an ally. Maybe Square-Enix then.
Quote:Saito is making Chibiro? Count me in!
No, Skip is making Chibirobo.
Quote:Earthbound 2(mother 3) will be released soon!!
It better be!
Quote:Square enix and Nintendo is working on DS online..
Definitely a good sign. Could we be seeing Final Fantasy 11 on the DS? It may not be that far-fetched...
Quote:No, Skip is making Chibirobo.
Whups, didn't read that correctly.
Quote:It better be!
Not in the US though!
Quote:Not in the US though!
Well, that's a mistake!
Yeah Nintendo is dumb that way.
So, why haven't they released Mother 3 yet?
Too late won't be soon enough for Nintendo and online gaming... (that is, they won't realize that it's time until it's too late, most likely)
As for the rest, not surprised at all that Mario Baseball is done by another team, as so many of such titles are these days at Nintendo.
Oh, and even if they DO make an Earthbound 3, at this point I'd be surprised if we ever see it. Think Magical Vacation.
I have Earthbound on the SNES so I'm content. Actually, I'm not because I'd really like Mother 3. Like RIGHT NOW.

That's not exactly a bad thing.
Yes, and EB1&2... idiots...
If they refuse to release EB1&2 here what are the chances of the third game being released?
The only thing we can hope for is that they release both carts around the same time.
I'd put the chances for either at low... I have no idea why Nintendo won't release EB1/2, as they are certainly translated and would be really easy to bring over, but given that they've done that and don't show any signs of changing that opinion... it's stupid and strange but Nintendo doesn't change a position easily once they've made it.
One thing to keep in mind is, from all the reviews of Mother 1&2 I've read, Mother 2 suffers from inferior sound. I never really found out HOW inferior mind you, but if it was knocked down to NES quality they may have wanted to actually boost the sound quality back up to it's original before releasing it here and then, they had to focus on other projects and well, time makes fools of us all. You know, something like that...
But the ACTUAL reality is they just hate us :D.
Really though, I played that game obessivly long ago but alas never owned it, only rented... over and over the same cart...
So as such, I search the land over for a used copy of the game in some pawn shop.
I got a used copy of Earthbound [SNES] for only $2.
Can I buy it from you? I'll over 3 times the price you payed!
What's that? Site is blocked.
NOA's page for Earthbound 1+2. It says to "Stay tuned!" for a US release. Yeah, right.
It's said "Stay Tuned" since the game came out in Japan and will probably forever.
Not exactly the best site for up-to-date information.
Hmm, remember when Mother 3 was going to be an N64 game?
Now it's a 2D GBA game. HOWEVER, does it have ANYTHING to do with the original Mother 3? If it doesn't at all, I STILL really want it. My point is if it's totally different, they could reincarnate the old Mother 3 project as Mother 4 for the DS. They WERE very close to being finished.
Mother 3 for the n64 looked so damn awesome.
I still remember seeing those pics in EGM. :(
It would be awesome if they ported it over to the DS, but they probably won't.
Yeah because that would mean that Nintendo loves us, which they clearly do not.
And remember the most recent screens? The one with the cowboys and stuff.
Earthbound 1 is a fun game...
You know what else is fun? College Finals.
...
...
...
Actually, College Finals aren't very fun at all.
Yeah...
But you're only in your Freshman year, right? WELL PREPARE FOR HELL!!!!
Actually it should feel roughly the same as you grow older since the challenge should match your level of intelligence...
IN A PERFECT WORLD!!!111!!...00005!!!
Quote:But you're only in your Freshman year, right?
Technically, yes, but I'm only taking two college course since I'm still a senior in high school.
I thought you were in college now.
You young'ins are so adorable!
Quote:I thought you were in college now.
Well, I am driving to the SOSU campus every M-W-F to attend two classes in the morning there.
That pic creeps me out every time I look at it. :D
He's like some serial-rapist, pedophile child-molester who stalks young girls...FOR THEIR BLOOD!!!
WHOA! GR is only in highschool? man, i feel old. i'm a junior in college. man, senior in highschool...that was a long time ago. like, 3 years. man...
and i still think that girl in that pic looks like someone i used to know.
I think you've mentioned that.
WHY DON'T YOU MARRY HER IF YOU LOVE HER SO MUCH!!!!.0500000!!!!
Yeah, GR is young isn't he... :)
That just means that you'll get gray hair and wrinkles sooner than I will and that I'll live longer than you. WHAT NOW?!
Haha, silly toddler. Big Boss had gray hair and wrinkles, and he was awesome.
Pfft, shows what you know!!
well, considering i smoke almost a pack a day...even if i was 10 years younger than you i'd still probably die before you...unless you got hit by a bus or something...
not that i'd want that to happen just to spite your youngness...
