If you see Folder, beat his ass.

I'm not condoning Folders actions because I believe what happened to BuddyC was extremely fucked up, although luckily people had enough $$ on them to cover their drinks.

It's a shame we can't hear Folder's side/reasoning behing his actions as he's been banned.



I agree I think Folder should be unbanned immediately so he can be tried in the court of public opinion!

PS: Who is Folder anyways?

Ban that Boutrosinitfaggot guy as well, while you're at it.



The Internet

Well, if you really are the internet, I guess you can't get banned from yourself.....

EDIT: Damn, have the mods already denied further drama through explanations? :(
 
I dunno the fundamentals of everything, but all I ever see is you guys bashing Folder left and right all the time anyway. Infact all I ever see is him getting bashed, yet you guys are all happy to jump in on a free drink tab from him....

Well, in the OT, we also drool over his wife.

Fundamentals are as such, people accuse folder of being all shit due to Spong being, well, a bit dubious with their info. then Folder says "I got Nintendo to make us a party and it's on them" then he doesn't show and sticks someone else with the bill, thereby proving that he is in fact all shit. 300 bucks. why, somebody could probably get their nose put back in place by a doctor for 300 bucks.

Well if he was taking it then so be it the way I see it. I mean then don't offer to use your tab. He screwed a guy that's not cool.
 
Well then to me, you guys should have known better. Unreliable spong, unreliable Folder. Basically I see it as GAF crew got Sponged....

Then again, why even believe 'em in the first place?
Well I certainly did not. I just find all of them annoying and thought this was a perfect opportunity for me to express my feelings.

who believes that he actually is at E3?

We saw him today at the Nintendo conference with Mrs. Folder -- Buddy was discussing things with him but I'm not sure the outcome.
 
I saw this dude that looked A LOT like folder in the front of the line to the Ninty conference so I asked, "hey are you from GAF?" and he's like "no, sorry"...

the weird thing is he was with a girl that looked a lot like Folder's girlfriend (and they kissed sometimes or at least she was all slobbering on him almost), so I think it was him but who knows I fight have been mistaken...

he wasn't shaved...

Isnt folder a brit?

Did he have an accent?
 
I vote for a good old-fashioned GAFfer rumble. Folder vs. BuddyC in a brawl to the death. Man to man...unless Folder wins, then everyone jumps in and Spongs his ass. :lol Wish I was there. I'd throw hands for my boys. :D PEACE.
 
I mean no offense, but why didn't the GAF guys realize that all promises were off once Folder didn't show up? I'm not altogether informed as to the circumstances surrounding the party, but I would expect it to be common sense not to start one on the tab of another, non-present party. If this was after E3, then I would also have expected for Folder to be absent out of embarassment for all of his false pre-E3 claims.

What it sounds like to me is that this BuddyC guy wanted everyone to have a good time, so he decided to be a gentleman and foot the bill anyways. *shrug*

There's a story to be told but now is not the time. Folder and I are trying to work things out with Nintendo, but it's all up in the air right now. Enjoy E3 this week and look forward to the story next.

http://news.spong.com/detail/news.a...ce+2+set+to+stun+E3+%96+DS+to+evolve+into+PDA

The unit will be a true gaming machine and will come equipped with a large high-quality back-lit screen and analogue controls, very much, one might argue, like Sony’s PSP.
...
Nintendo will unveil a suite of PDA-focussed software for the DS powered by recently licensed Palm OS technology.
...
SPOnG has been privvy to the emergence of the next-generation of Game Boy Advance for some time :lol :lol :lol
...
The new Game Boy will be based around existing Nintendo GameCube hardware and will be, when it launches in the US and Japan towards the end of this year, the most powerful handheld console on the planet. SPOnG also believes it likely that the machine will make use of GameCube software. Revolution connectivity was confirmed.

I think I noticed a bit of an accent, but not super-strong like the British people on TV... so maybe it wasn't, but I was almost sure it was until he said no...

Good luck with that...

"Hey how would you guys like to sponsor a big promotional cocktail party?"

"Hmmmm, I'm not sure....when is it?"

"Last night!"
 
Next Gameboy system? What the fuck the DS just came out, doesn't even have 30 games and you're talking about another Gameboy system?

Gameboy Macro?

And what the Fuck is this shit?

I agree -- WTF is this crap? I just bought my Nintendo DS awhile ago, yet here Nintendo is announcing the next Game Boy for release THIS FALL. What about those of us who have already put their money towards this $160 investment? Are we supposed to just toss this thing into the trash? Whatever happened to the prospect of future DS addons (I would have liked for those Palm rumors to have been true)?

Instead of working on making their handhelds smaller and smaller, why doesn't Nintendo focus on improving the meat and potatos of what they already have? At this rate, I'm wondering if I should return my DS and use that money on a PSP.
 
Isn't GB Micro just a mini GBA? Kinda like the redesigned PSOne and PSTwo. Same crap, different case. It's not like you have to ditch your DS or anything.

Apples and oranges. The new system is a redesigned GBA SP. The DS is still the only thing which can play DS games.

Well, yes you should, but that has nothing to do with the GBA Micro. ;)

Drinky sez yes.

The Game Boy Micro will probably be cheaper to manufacture than the GBASP. Nintendo likes saving money. A certain percentage of GBA owners will buy it for the backlight. Nintendo likes selling new versions of its systems.

And, uh, wait... you complain in your first paragraph that this makes the DS obsolete, but in your second paragraph you complain that it doesn't improve on the "meat and potatoes"... IOW that it doesn't make the DS obsolete. So which is it? ;)

Why would anyone believe Li Mu Bai? He has no connections what-so-ever. Nighttrain just overstates things.

And you are just a fan, acting as if you had seen the Revolution & it's non-presentation before anyone else. (peope were actually asking you for specs or the system's aesthetics) I sourced my info, never made any outrageous claims, never claimed I was an insider, only that I had few friends that worked within the industry. Go back to OA & ultimate wrestle with your bro, Whippin Sean. Type some racial expletives while you're at it, as you so normally do.

Hm yeah, I guess you're right. =\

I'm just concerned that this will take Nintendo's focus away from the DS, is all.

Is Nintendo going to pass those savings on to the consumer?
 
Waychel said:

Nah -- I'm sure a lot of the R&D that went into this was done during the DS's development. Nintendo saw a way to put it to good use, and voila. This is a way to keep GBA alive longer, and I do believe it's going to work.

HCgamer said:

One would hope so.

I'm betting on an $80 intro price for this. $60 would be my sweet spot, though.

Work things out? The plot thickens... and I agree with the thread title change...

Man, if that works....
 
I just wanted to add that Folder's suckines extends even further than BuddyC's (very generous) drink bill. He also picked the obscure bar we all converged at, which was nowhere near downtown, and cost several people a lot of money in taxi fees just to haul their asses all the way out there and back. On top of that it was an absolutely tiny place, and closed at freaking midnight.

I'm starting to think this was all intentional then :lol
