Dude, don't buy King of Swing. I played it and it's a disgrace to the DKC games IMO.

It's been a while since I've played it but I'm pretty sure it was nothing remarkable. The concept of playing only with the R + L buttons is fun at first but gets old VERY quickly. I suggest you rent it first, it's really not THAT bad but it's not good either.

Yeah, Barkworm is right. It's not a bad game, but it just wasn't worth the money.

Screen comparison. They're all running Pokemon. That damn GBA Model #1 is an absoulte joke Even the Micro gets pwned by this new SP. Crazy Nintendo and their silent launch.

The screen isn't too bright, though, is it? I don't want to go blind from the thing in case I end up picking the sucker up.

I don't know why you need it that bright unless yiu're like..legally blind...

It's cool and all..but the DS's screen is perfect to me.

Nah, it's perfectly fine. It's just a hair brighter than the PSP in real life which isn't near blinding. Though you could use the damn thing as a weak flashlight on the highest setting . The SP itself uses so little battery for processor cycles that with the new battery they put in, the thing has better life than the DS and the old SP. I love this new SP.

hey wait, how did you get it to display on the bottom screen of the DS for a GBA game. Interesting thing the new SP though. Although the only time I have trouble seeing on my SP is when the sunlight is shining on it at full force.

It's in the options when you boot up your DS.

I saw a bunch of the new SP's tonight at the mall, but no Micro's. It's probably a good thing, I may have gone and blown some cash on one.

Now that the Revolution hype is over (and the cold sweat until the games are unveiled begins) I guess now is a good time to look back at this.

Guys, we all consider ourselves Nintendo fans. Heh, we've been pwned x14. This guy has us all flat out beat. Take a look at this...

http://gamecube.1up.com/do/feature?p...=0&cId=3141783

So much work put into those fake videos. Some people really are that devoted to getting attention, and that guy got the whole damn fanbases attention...twice. I remember that Mario Universe fiasco back in 2002. Man, that was a mess. That guy is amazing to have faked all of that up so quickly.

I'll be damned if that F-Zero video dosen't get me all teary though. I'll miss that. Goddamn that anime to hell.

That video looked fake to me, right from the get-go.

As for the Pokemon thing...well...stupid. Plain stupid. Just like XD. Why can we still not go out into tall grass to catch us some Pokemon? God.

Because, Peanut, it would sell *far* too well. Sales would skyrocket for their consoles, and they just woulden't be able to keep up with demand. We all know how Nintendo loves to keep stores over stocked with their consoles .
