Cube-Europe:
Quote:When Americans pre-order Rogue Squadron III they will receive a bonus disk featuring:
-Playable Rebel Strike demo
-Rebel Strike game trailer
-Gladius Cube playable demo
-Atari's Star Wars Arcade Game (circa 1982) fully playable on Nintendo GameCube
Awesome! I'm definitely going to preorder when they start doing this!
if I know I'll have the money to get the game when it comes out i will
I must get that! When is this pre-order starting?
I don't know, but it should be starting pretty soon.
Yeah I read about that at the ign boards. Pretty awesome, huh? Hopefully they'll start the pre-order deal real soon. I want my RS demo!
And I want Star Wars Arcade!!
What I really want is Sega's 1997 game Star Wars Trilogy Arcade...
Yeah that would be pretty cool to have.
Again, I'm stuck in the situation of having too many "must-buys" during the last 4+ months of the year.
Somehow, I have to choose 4 games out of:
F-Zero GX
Soul Calibre II
Viewtiful Joe
Mario Kart: Double Dash
Pikmin 2
Rebel Strike
Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes
Prince of Persia
Beyond Good and Evil
and that's after reluctantly ignoring PN03 and Billy Hatcher.
Balancing the genres, release dates, gameplay speed, and 3rd party/1st party issues is difficult. Every time I seem to find a nice balance, I notice that all of the games are made by Nintendo, or all of the games are fast-paced, or all the games are released before Thanksgiving. I can handle this frustration, Nintendo. Thank you for this problem, Nintendo.
Hmm, if I had to choose four out of those I'd choose F-Zero, Mario Kart DD (if they make it much faster than the E3 and bring back MK 64's improved sliding), Twin Snakes, and Rebel Strike. But I also really want those other games (especially Prince of Persia) so it'd be a tough choice. I'm gonna have to work over-time to be able to afford all of these great fall/winter games.
And BTW I've heard that PN 03 isn't that great,
For Cube... I really want F-Zero GX and Rebel Strike. And the already-out games Ikaruga and Skies of Arcadia Legends. There are lots of other games I'd like to have, of course, but those are on top of the list.
I'd also love to get:
Beyond Good and Evil
Viewtiful Joe
Soul Calibur 2
1080
And for already-out games... plenty, but after those two I'd probably put Gauntlet Dark Legacy next. :)
You gotta d/l some of those Prince of Persia videos. The game looks incredible.
I'll pre-order if my lazy ass can get a job.
Wow that's awesome...but not nearly as cool as when you go OoT for preordering WW. Still, thats an incentive to preorder a game I would be buying anyway...so I'm sold.
Hopefully because of the RS3 and Wind Waker preorder campaigns other companies will start following suit. Getting free stuff for preordering is definitely a good thing.
Too bad they're not including F-Zero X and the 64DD track-editor with GX. :cry:
Yeah, that'd be awesome... I really want that track editor!
And the next Star Fox should come with SF2 for SNES. :)
IGN asked Miyamoto about that possibility a while back and he said that he'd take their suggestion under consideration, so I'm sure it'll happen.
