Quote:Nintendo has revealed details and images of Mario Kart on the GameCube, which will be called Mario Kart: Double Dash.

The images reveal 16 characters riding in pairs on their karts. One character drives, and the other throws weapons. Characters include Mario, Luigi, Peach, Baby Mario, Baby Luigi, Yoshi, Birdo, Wario, Waluigi, Donkey Kong, Diddy Kong, Bowser, Bowser Jr., Koopa, and Paratroopa.

We'll have some more details shortly. In the meantime, <a href="http://www.nintendo.com/e32k3/mariokart_feat.html ">eyeball</a> what NOA has revealed.

Update: Famitsu says the game WILL work with a LAN adapter; 8 players can play!(with two GameCubes and two copies of the game)

- more items
- over 60 types of creatures
- random events on the field
- underground dungeons
- no time limit system

I just got it today, despite the warnings of a few co-workers.

I came to the decision that my co-workers are fucking lunatics because this is the best animated film I've seen since Metropolis. I loved how you got the feeling that in the two hours I spent watching this movie I felt like I experienced an entire season of a series. It was loaded with depth and character, it was funny and depressing. It was simply a work of art. Even the English dubbing was superb.

It's just incredible. You all need to see this... immediately.

Funny note: The girl who voices Chihiro is the girl in the videotape in "The Ring". :)

If this is true...

Huh. Apparently, Treasure is making the game. That gives me hope for it.

*cough*

Overshadowed this year because its the day after Easter... and the Red Sox lost...

But hey, know of any other holidays that are only official holidays in 2 states? :)

Who's your favorite music artist and why?
