I sure did, and talk about FUCKING WHOA.

For those that missed it, here's the run down of what you missed that I namely care about:

Gameboy micro, a fucking super tiny version of Gameboy Advance with the brightest screen today. Not a successor, but it looks way fucking cooler than the other hand helds thus far.

New Super Mario Bros., an official DS title that's on it's way.

Mario Soccer and Mario Baseball (along with Mario Party 7).

Fucking wicked new video of The Legend of Zelda: Twighlight Princess.

Revalation of Nintendo Revolution. They had a prototype on stage with them. And the most interesting part about the Revolution: backwards compatible. Not with just GCN, no no, with the wifi internet, you can get Nintendo content from the past TWENTY YEARS. That's right, NES, SNES, even N64 games downloadable to play on the DS. Whooa....

This is just the best stuff I liked. Others will come and talk about other stuff later.

Yeah, we have a thread about revolution. I thought that picture I posted first was fake, but apparently not. I didn't belive I would see a picture of Nintendo's revolution this year.

I expect Gameboy micro being a good budget handheld. Honestly, they must sell it for cheap or it get killed by Nintendo's own DS. And it's probably a sign that Nintendo don't want to give up GBA.

And well, even Gamecube can emulate the N64. It already does that with the Zelda bonus disc. So it's not that hard to implent it really, from a devolopment standpoint. You just need someone to write the emulators.

Downloadable games on the DS and Revolution mean that *someone* is eventually going to start packet sniffing and find a way to download their OWN *ahem* "software" onto it.

Im not getting the GameBoy Micro... because I already have the SP and the DS and to me, Nintendo is just trying to milk more money out of its consumers. Even if it did have the Play-Yan built in, I wouldn't buy it. I'd just go buy a Play-Yan. Still awaiting the pic of the Revolution controller....

Well, infact they already figured out how to do that with the DS. There is a demo version of some game that you can apparently upload to your DS in that way. And people have gotten Linux running on the DS (althought very basic for the moment... it's not really useful for anything)

Althought it's very restricted with the restricted amount of RAM. If Nintendo would make some offical DS flash cart or something...

I doubt the Revolution would be too diffrent, they can't strip away buttons at least but it's possibly they add new ones.

I just saw it.

Oh god, oh god. I must watch it over and over again. I was disturbed with the rebuffering, which stopped when my sister did head to sleep. I guess he was listining on internet radio or something.

I'm excited about just being able to play N64 games, I hate the N64 controller (or rather, it's small control stick that is just plain uncomfortable...) but love some of the games. :X

I wonder of Revolution can have Gamecube Memory cards, it would be a shame to not using the old savegames. Althought i'm not throwing out my Gamecube, I could have it in my own room or something.

I gained faith in Nintendo again. Now they just need to release Advance wars DS so I have something to play in meanwhile before the new Legend of Zelda is released.

Edit: Creepy, it's like the press conference brainwashed me...

Yeah, some non-Revolution talk now.

OK, at least I can get Zelda come Christmas (hopefully it's released by then), that's a no-brainer. Wouldn't it be something if that won Game of the Year ahead of any Xbox 360 games...

Oh, and... DDR MARIO MIX. I wanna see a song list first but I'm tempted...

Heh, I actually did dream about DDR Mario mix. At least it's a nice first step of having the DDR franchise on Gamecube. In a intresting odd way.

Yeah, I hope for a christmas release too of the new Zelda...

DDR Mario Mix looks like it'll have the staple Mario twist to it, with items and what not during gameplay, along with minigames. But what I found strange about it is that the game is using the Extreme announcer, atleast the build they showed off did
