| Metroid Prime 3: Corruption
*drool* I want a Wii now! Who cares about bad names??? (I don't  )
Super Mario Galaxy looks nice. I think Twilight Princess will wait for my buying it until I get myself a Wii. (If that sounds wrong, I don't give a crap) |

For that matter, do you know what the difference between a bit and a byte is? |

erm... I know this is... kind of off-topic to the current conversation 
but has anyone seen, or not seen... the video for Corruption? Maybe the controller that is classic (eg. gamecube, two handed style), for people who hate the remote style? Super Paper Mario looks awesome, but this post won't be followed, unless the debate between bits and bytes is concluded soon
Bytes are capacity! Bits are... something else
If I'm wrong, feel free to correct, call me a n00b, no flaming, though, please
too many commas.... EDIT: Woah! Double post! And the bit byte isn't really relevant anymore, seeing as firestorm hit the blow up the board button, or he actually got banned (edited by timdevril50755 on 05-10-06 02:47 PM) |

| a Bit is the smallest information thing a computer can adress. a Byte consists of 8 Bit, not less, not more.
Diddy Kong Racing: I saw the screenshot on the Press-Sites of Nintendo.com, and it looks like a remake of some sort of Diddy Kong Racing, just without the Rare-Charakters. No 'I am Conker' or 'Tipsy' and 'Tiptup'. |

| First I'll copy/paste a post I couldn't post here yesterday:
I thought Nintendo made a few mistakes today... a price/launch date would have been good unless Sony stole their launch date, but the odds of that aren't great. They also should have pushed the Virtual Console idea a lot more unless that ends up on the E3 show floor... I mean, they just needed to show a few clips of SMB3, Super Metroid and Ocarina of Time (and maybe a clip of Sonic to drive home the Sega thing) to show it off briefly. No new Super Smash Bros. disappointed me as well. But on the plus side... they did all right. Certainly not a failure, because they showed off some nice looking Wii stuff (including Twilight Princess now officially being released for the GameCube AND the Wii) and I'm really interested to hear all the hands-on impressions starting tomorrow. The classic controller for the Virtual Console games is sleak as well but I wonder if that's going to come included or if it'll cost you. Plus the DS lineup looks quite strong (Yoshi's Island 2... I want NOW.), so that's a plus. I'm not a huge Microsoft fan but they just had to stay the course this time around and that's what happened. Dunno about the Live Anywhere stuff, and it was funny that they mentioned GTA4 as an exclusive while the Rockstar press release that came out said it's coming for the PS3 as well, but they probably have Christmas 2006 in the bag. Halo 3, of course, won't hurt. I don't think anyone hit a home run, but as far as press conferences this year I'd put Nintendo just ahead of Microsoft, with Sony in dead last this time around. Nintendo could have done a bit more but still generated the buzz they were looking for, Microsoft had some surprises and didn't really rock the boat too much, and Sony... I really don't know what to make of Sony at this point. The Playstation name's strong enough that this probably won't hurt the PS3, but this was surreal. However, based on reading the post-conference reactions so far... Nintendo obviously got the job done. There's a lot more positive Wii buzz than before and I think a lot of the name concerns have been dealt with. I wasn't totally convinced going in that Wii could beat PS3 as new system of the show, but... it certainly looks that it could go that way when the whole batch of gaming site awards go up at the end of the week. |

I really hope Conker is still in there. I loved Diddy Kong Racing.  (edited by Peardian on 05-10-06 08:37 PM) |

| As I suspected, they were holding off Smash Bros. coverage until later...
According to IGN, Joystiq, and... Well, many places, Solid Snake is in the new Smash Bros. What the hell. (edited by Alastor the Stylish on 05-10-06 10:27 PM) |

| *reads coverage*
...WIIIIIIIIIIIII. ^__________^ The game's called Super Smash Bros. Brawl and will use GameCube controls (meaning no reliance on motion). New playable characters include Snake (...WTF?!?), Wario, Metaknight (*watches Kirby fans squeal*), Pit (*everyone can watch Colin squeal*) and Samus in her Metroid Zero Mission outfit. And one new special attack? A Nintendog pops up and puts his paws over the screen to obstruct the screen. GENIUS. Release date? 2007.  (edited by Colin on 05-10-06 11:19 PM) |

| The Nintendog seems like it's a replacement for the darkness Togepi move in Melee. Meaning... nothing that new. | |||

But it's cuter. I mean, look at the adorable Nintendog. 
I'm going to be broke when the Wii comes out. |

Originally posted by Colin I can hear it from my friends. "That's retarded." That's when I kick their ass when I use it. Metaknight... just... just... wow... And it looks as though it is going by the Kirby Super Star story rather than the recent games. YAY! My friend right now is shocked about Snake. I think nobody saw that coming... |

| Apparently Kojima "begged" Nintendo to put Snake in the game.
Well, I suppose trading a Snake cameo in SSB Brawl for a possible MGS game down the road works. |

| Too bad IGN fails at videos.
Diddy Kong Racing DS?  Like holy shit. It's like Nintendo is reading my mental list of the top 10 games that need to come out. (Now where's Super Smash Bros DS and an SSB-style Mario Kart?)(edited by HyperMackerel on 05-11-06 12:01 AM) |

Funny how much of the darker screenshot is Metaknights ship, heh.  I guess Snake is included becuse... well, he's a old-school charcther after all. But it looks really funny to have a realistic human next to the cartoony charcthers...
The American name seems to be Super Smash bros Dojo... or it's just a recent rename. Meh, i'm rather neutral against both names. (edited by Ailure on 05-11-06 05:44 AM) (edited by Ailure on 05-11-06 05:46 AM) |

Originally posted by Alastor the StylishThe video is on the offical SSB site, just look on Nintendo.com then follows the links from there.Originally posted by ShadicI tried, dammit.
Sometimes it's better to check the offical sites sometimes, as the press sites (IGN, Gamespot, whatever) loves to have annoying ads everywhere and odd way to handle downloads.  You might be able to find high-res videos on torrents too, I downloaded the E3 Nintendo press though torrent yesterday. <<(edited by Ailure on 05-11-06 09:30 AM) |

Originally posted by PeardianOriginally posted by Colin I would've said the same thing, so I just quoted. I read on... Nintendo.com, I think, that Sonic is a possibility in this game I could care less about Sonic, but Shadow the Hedgehog would win for me. Just think, a combo using Chaos Control and rapid attacks...
Snake would be cool, although now it seems like the other characters don't fit in with the levels, they look so realistic... |
