This looks so cool.

It would be awesome if Nintendo did this. What a cool attachment and it could be used for ALL FPS games.

*Kid Icarus* · 09-26-2005, 10:12 PM

That'd be fun... so long as I don't have to use it for Metroid. I wanna be able to feel like I'm moving Samus' arm, not aiming a gun.

The Resident Evil idea's neat-o though.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 09-26-2005, 10:32 PM

Man, all these new attachments are making my head spin. So many possibilities.

Peanut · 09-26-2005, 10:32 PM

Well, like they said, I'm sure it would be optional for most games that would put it to use.

*Kid Icarus* · 09-26-2005, 10:45 PM

Unless the game needs more buttons then the remote can easily provide...

But yeah... I'd be all over next-gen Duck Hunt. Or how about a new Gumshoe? That's become one of my favorite NES games... and there was that faked pic of it floating around a while back.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 09-26-2005, 10:49 PM

Yeah, that pic was fake. George Harrison is way older than that. I know because I met him in person. And the controller was proven fake that very day.

God I love laughing at all those stupid ass bloggers. "Industry Insiders"

All bullsh**.

This is funny as hell. Sony released the white PSP last week but they couldn't even top the DS sales. That's what you get when you release nothing but crap.

EDIT: Check out the trailer for "Super Princess Peach"!
The screenshots were underwhelming but the trailer got me excited.

*Mecha Cow* · 09-27-2005, 09:25 AM

Hell yeah! About time we got some more info on that game.

It looks really great, I like Peach and the game looks like a lot of fun. I can't wait.

Peanut · 09-27-2005, 11:09 AM

Wow! That looks so awesome!

Add yet another great title coming to DS.

*Kid Icarus* · 09-27-2005, 01:53 PM

Speaking of DS games... here's a list of games that are gonna make me go broke in the next few months. -_-.

Zoo Tycoon

October 11th:
Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
Real Time Conflict: Shogun Empires

Mario Kart DS

November 28th:
Mario and Luigi 2: Partners in Time

Nobember 30th:
Snowboard Kids DS

December 5th:

12 games. ~$480. And this isn't even counting the hand full of GBA games, or GCN games, comming out.

*Mecha Cow* · 09-27-2005, 02:01 PM

You wouldn't happen to have a European release chart handy, would you?

I need a M&L2 release date to live.

Jed · 09-27-2005, 03:01 PM

Here's some release dates from the Nintendo website. They don't have M&L2 though

Cerpin Taxt · 09-27-2005, 03:10 PM

The Starbucks that I work at is, within the next month or so, a setup kit for a Nintendo WiFi hotspot. And we all get free T Shirts, games, extra crap like Animal Crossing pins, and a chance to win one of about 15 free DSes from our store.

Woot.

**ThirdMarioBro** · 09-27-2005, 05:21 PM

Oh man, I want Super Princess Peach so badly. It looks like such fun. 2 New Mario platformers. Finally

You know, now that I see it in motion, it looks like it's running on a modded Yoshi's Island engine. You can see it in the physics.

All the better I say.

*Spitfire* · 09-27-2005, 06:27 PM

I've been surfing around online and people seem to be excited about the Revolution. People who aren't Nintendo fans! It would be nice if it sold well I want Nintendo to do good!

Super Princess Peach looks great. I've always been a fan of peach and it's nice to see her getting a game. However, I really think Luigi deserves a real game of his own over peach. Even though, I love Luigi's Mansion (first Gamecube game I owned) Luigi deserves more.

*Kid Icarus* · 09-27-2005, 09:17 PM

Luigi's Mansion gets way too much flack... It was a great game, even if it was short. My friend and I were awed by it for the first few weeks he had his Gamecube (I couldn't afford mine until around when Pikmin came out... first game my system ever played). And what about "Mario's Missing"? :-p

Super Princess Peach is going to rock. It looked like a good concept when I first saw it, and now it seems that they've fleshed it out.

Woot.

Why would you get Animal Crossing pins when that game's not due out until December?

I swear to god Nintendo had better not **** up the advertising of Mario kart DS's online mode by pushing Animal Crossng instead.

Still though, more advertising can't hurt. I'm glad I don't have to go to a public hotspot to play... I've got my own 11.g network, and the cafeteria I work at at UNL is a big ol' WiFi hotspot

. Mario kart DS on my breaks... yes....

**ThirdMarioBro** · 10-18-2005, 11:33 AM

*WHEW* So Good being home.

*kicks back and relaxes*

Cerpin Taxt · 10-18-2005, 02:55 PM

So apparently, this entire WiFi deal with Starbucks fell through and is now happening with McDonalds. I am very upset.

Oh well. Means less kids

Play on, fattys!

Peanut · 10-18-2005, 06:38 PM

I hate to keep smacking around the PSP, but...
