QOTU: "I'll just gnaw on this hand Nintendo sent me. It helps to pass the time."
Well, last month was a MONTH of Foreigner References. This month, the references are easier. So, here is some news for those who read us on a regular basis!
1. New columns from Hbomb and Don.
2. Nintendo Power made my day by excluding an * next to the US name for Another Code. The latest Nintendo Power Issue had a list of games that were coming out for the Nintendo DS. The list had an asterisk by each game NOT CURRENTLY SLATED for US release. Another Code was one of the games that did not have an asterisk beside it.. It also had a specific highlight on it and a picture of Ashley. While everyone raved on about Katamaru Damacy and all the other new games, Another Code was quietly confirmed.
3. Midway is set to announce about TEN DS titles at E3. So far, the names being tossed around are ports of Wipeout 64, Spy Hunter 2, and Gauntlet Legends: Dark Legacy. Arcade Treasures games, a Mortal Kombat game, and other titles are expected. We'll see at E3.
4. Nintendo is set to announce 10 new GBA games at E3 for release later this year. One of which is F-Zero 3, also it looks like Nintendo will be publishing Tales of Phantasia for GBA themselves. Awaiting confirmation on that myself, but considering Nintendo is publishing Soul Calibur for DS themselves, it looks like that will happen.
Quick side note for those who want to know, the April Fools jokes were the bit about Atlus and the bit about Majesco. Although, the Majesco one is grounded in a few interesting facts. The DS sales data is completely true. It also makes me wonder a bit on what games like NINTENDOGS, Electroplankton, and future titles like Pokemon Diamond/Pearl will do to the DS sales in Japan. If two new color variations do that for the unit, than the PSP does not have as strong a grip as Sony thinks. It looks like the online play in Diamond/Pearl, and solid games like Final Fantasy 3 could be enough to keep the Nintendo DS a high profile system in Japan for a long time. Oh, umm.. online play in Pearl/Diamond.. umm.. you didn't read that. That's it, there's begging, and THIS is silly. Later people! Comment? -PAW- Top?
