  Nintendo Revolution Rumors
Posted by: Last Exile - 01-23-2005, 09:28 PM - Forum: Video Gaming - Replies (12)

found this info on a site seems interesting.

---------------------------
This is from some guy on the Nintendopower forums. He apparently was the first to give good DS specs before they were revealed...so this may be good.

There has been a TON of speculation on Nintendo's upcoming console but little is actually known about it. There are so many different ideas that no one really knows what to think. So here are some supposed "facts" about the Revolution. I can't reveal my source because I've been asked not to. Sorry guys. I would say that this info has at least a 65% chance of being accurate. My source has been right before and he's also been wrong. Here goes......

Ok first things first. Yes, Nintendo will utilize gyros in it's controllers. I think most people pretty much already took this as fact. Also, the Rev will indeed have dual processors. Also broadband is built in, no modem to buy. Nintendo has an online strategy in development. It will be implemented on the DS first. There are no current plans to connect the DS and the Rev....the GB Evolution on the other hand......

The Rev will have four controller ports. It will have a hard drive which will be used in much the same way as the 64DD was supposed to be used. Things like Dolby Digital 5.1 and high def monitor support are included. There is no type of virtual reality or any kind of headset planned. It is backwards compatible with Gamecube games. It will use the HD-DVD format and not Sony's Blu-Ray. Controllers are not wireless, but wireless controllers are planned. It will launch with an unnamed Mario game and work on Zelda has already begun. Super Smash Brothers is in mid development and will be a launch title.

Ok so what's the Revolutionary part? That's what you all want to know. Well my source wouldn't tell me. He said it would get him into too much trouble, and could give Sony and Microsoft an advantage at this stage in the game. But he did say this; "if you think too hard you'll never guess what it is. It's nothing "new" technically speaking. It's just something that hasn't really been applied to video games yet."

He then said "touching is good but feeling is better". What exactly that means I have no idea. Some sort of force feedback device? We already have rumble packs.

sounds good maybe it will be true maybe not. time will tell X-Mas 05' !

Has anyone seen this movie? I've been trying to find some way to download it since I haven't found it in stores locally anywhere (I don't even know if it's out in America). It came out in Japan last year and I've been dying to see it. I've tried Kazaa Lite and Limewire but I've had no luck. Anyone know where I can find it?

  Really dumb questions out of know where.
Posted by: Blight - 01-23-2005, 06:58 PM - Forum: General Babble - Replies (37)

OK, in almost any anime I?ve seen, someone always get a nosebleed cause they see something sexual. Is this supposed to be an exaggeration of something that really happens? I don?t know of anyone getting a nose bleed from see a chick naked of anything stupid like that so where the hell did this come from?

Question two. This one is a little weird. OK, I?ve noticed in a couple of anime that their seems to be a tendency to, how should I put it, keep it in the family. These are non-hentai titles. Also, I have seen this in a few video games, most notably, FF X-2. Brother is disgusting and F?ed up. Of course when you switch to the hentia side of things, it gets weirder. The whole siblings screwing thing is just wrong. But hentai is for pervs (like me) so goes its namesake. So, does anyone know what the deal is on that?

  Full Metal Alchemist for PS2
Posted by: katherine_jean - 01-22-2005, 09:12 PM - Forum: Video Gaming - Replies (16)

Today, I bought the game Full Metal Alchemist, for PS2.
As fo yet, I havent gotten the chance to play it yet, what with studying and all.

So I was wondering who here has played it, and their opinions on it.

Personally, I absolutely loved the series, and I'm hoping that the game won't ruin my view on things.

  Sad Naruto News
Posted by: Last Exile - 01-22-2005, 07:06 PM - Forum: Anime Discussion - Replies (80)

hey,

just read this at a site :

Adult Swim anime programming director Kim Manning disclosed some of Adult Swim's anime plans for 2005 during a message board Q&A session on January 20.

Cartoon Network has acquired the rights to broadcast the remaining episodes of Inu Yasha (episodes 105-167) but no time-line for their broadcast was given.

Manning explained that Adult Swim has no plans to seek the USA TV rights to Naruto or the Fullmetal Alchemist movie. Also, she confirmed that, due to inadequate ratings, they won?t be acquiring any more episodes of Case Closed but will keep rerunning the 50 they have already shown. She said there are no plans for Adult Swim to produce a 3rd season of Big O, and that they have allowed the rights to Outlaw Star to expire. She also said they still plan to air the Metropolis anime movie, the first 2 Inu Yasha movies and the Cowboy Bebop movie this year. The Bebop movie is planned for this coming fall but she didn?t say when the other movies would run.


Sad Sad.
i would think they would be the first to get the rights because its so popular in japan. this is a shock to me. maybe they will change there minds...

just thought Naruto fans would like to hear this.
