Alright, I'll see what I can do.
That works good on the Xbox because it has a built in harddrive, but the GC does not, which means that they would have to make one and then you'd have to buy it.
It's hardly as bas as he makes it sound. Sure you might not be able to unlock that super-secret room that has the missle upgrade in it or be able to see a few pictures of the creators, but you still get an entire game regardless. And besides who DOESN'T have a GBA?
Looks like Sony doesn't think so...
I only know of one game that does that, and it's Metroid Prime. You have to beat it and then connect with Metroid Fusion to unlock Metroid 1. Again, yes, you are paying out some extra cash, but in the end it's not like you only got one game out of the deal.
That number is way to high, I think.
I just don't agree with the whole "Nintendo is evil, all they care about is money, they don't want the gamers to have long gaming experiences!!" He harps a lot on Nintendo and then says MS and Sony are the ones who care about gamers. Lets looks at Sony. Or Final Fantasy 11 in particular. To play it you must purchase a modem, a harddrive, and pay for online service. How is that different from what Nintendo is doing? Sony charges you lots for all these things, but, somehow Nintendo is evil and all Sony wants is for you to have fun? Sorry, not buying it.

Quote:The whole connectivity concept in itself is unique, is intriguing, but in the end is useless.

Quote:10% will only come if you have hook ups and a Game Boy Advance.
