ok, so far....$30 games. Super Mario 64 at launch. anyways, they're just getting started it seems.

 

[Wario64]

$30, hah! Eat that haters

This price is actually cheaper than GBAs, which had games for $39.99 at launch

 

[nfreakct]

Oh my!

 

[duderon]

:eek


IT HAS BEGUN

 

[MarkMacD]

On a related note, NOA is going to be announcing something "important" around midnight. Probably the same things coming out of Japan, or maybe (my guess) the U.S. launch lineup, who knows.

 

[Zilch]

A straight port of SM64? Meh.

 

[TekunoRobby]

Wait so this isn't some random insight from a forum goer but actually announced by Nintendo themselves?

Is the press conference streaming?

 

[NotMSRP]

$20-25 when the weekly ad flyers hit; nice.

 

[Tenguman]

A straight port of SM64? Meh.

you forget the 4-player multiplayer?

 

[MetatronM]

Midnight by whose standards?

 

[Chrono]

A straight port of SM64? Meh.

It's a PORTABLE SM64... that means 3d mario between classes!

 

[Mrbob]

Does this mean a price decrease for GBA games?

 

[imastalker co.]

A straight port of SM64? Meh.

well, based on what was seen at E3, a multiplayer mode has been added. you also have the ability to use whatever player you want in the single player mode, and each one have their own unique abilities which should change the gameplay up a bit (ala Doki Doki Panic).

oh, and the character models have been improved very much.

so yeah, more than just a straight port. although yeah, i would've also liked something new.

 

[aoi tsuki]

Midnight by whose standards?

Those on the west coast. It's 10:23p there.

 

[FeedMeAStrayCat]

~prays for a port of GoldenEye, a new Animal Crossing at launch, and a new Mario Kart at launch.. all with wireless multiplayer~ ~dies~

 

[skip]

Midnight by whose standards?

pacific.

 

[Rorschach]

3D is overrated.

 

[snapty00]

Fuck more Mario shit. I'm more interested in that stuff like Nintendogs.

 

[olimario]

nevermind.
DS rocks.

 

[Grubdog]

Third parties including Electronic Arts, THQ, and Ubisoft will also contribute to the console's launch lineup. More to come...

 

[DSN2K]

"Third parties including Electronic Arts, THQ, and Ubisoft will also contribute to the console's launch lineup."

edit: damn beaten

 

[duderon]

3D is overrated.

2D is underrated.

"Third parties including Electronic Arts, THQ, and Ubisoft will also contribute to the console's launch lineup."

WHERE IS THIS COMING FROM??

 

[Speevy]

Are they just saying random things like "DS rules!" or is there any more news to this?

 

[sc0la]

$30, hah! Eat that haters

This price is actually cheaper than GBAs, which had games for $39.99 at launch

Heh, nice, I forgot that they where $40 at launch. I hope best buy sticks with dropping their portable releases to 5-10$ cheaper on release week so I can drop the GGC on DS games

Spoiler

if I get one

 

[ohamsie]

Where are you finding this out?

 

[krypt0nian]

Where are we getting this from?

 

[MrCheez]

Woah, this is tonight!?

 

[Scalemail Ted]

3D is overrated.

Cheers!!!!!!!

 

[JackFrost2012]

Is that $30 price point for JAPAN? i.e. 3200 yen

Or is that $30 price point for AMERICA.

[FeedMeAStrayCat]

Activision has been added to the third party list for launch games now! That probably means a Tony Hawk/Spiderman game or something..

 

[Chrono]

You can do that?

... yeah.

How do you keep track of the topics you posted in? I thought everybody knew.

 

[impirius]

We got live video from Nintendo.com... it was awesome

 

[Wario64]

How do you keep track of the topics you posted in? I thought everybody knew.

I used the search...

Wow this will make things much easier now

 

[BuddyC]

You can do that?

user cp -> edit options -> default thread subscription mode -> no email notification

there, now you'll subscribe to threads when you post in them and can track their activity through the user cp.

 

[Spiritreaver]

Amazing news! Especially the $30 games. I hope for some more big stuff tonight.

 

[sc0la]

You can do that?

[krypt0nian]

We got live video from Nintendo.com... it was awesome

Yeah i got the live feed too but gamefeed or whatever also posted as it happened.

 

[snapty00]

Nevermind, someone posted it.

Our company has publicly stated that by the end of March we expect to sell 4 million units. We're talking big numbers.

Whoa. Big projections, there.

 

[olimario]

Mario 64 DS to feature mini games?
Sold!

Why does Steven Kent get to go see Redmond all the time? Didn't he think Mario 64 was Mario 3?

 

[JackFrost2012]
