I think that the way these contracts are made the next gen machines would be categorized with release dates rather than the power of the said machines. Or you know just write there that they won't release Mass Effect 1 for Wii (yes I know) or PS3.

And that's...how can I comment it...it's just...bah! Just...let's talk about this again from August, Pach.
However, pretty good signals for Wii U. Strangely.

Yeah, they were all fairly positive on the Wii U (besides Pachter once again saying it should have released years ago... ugh).
Assuming it was specified by release dates and not specifically by name, then a potential next generation as far as Microsoft would be concerned for contractual purposes probably wouldn't start until after Microsoft releases its next generation Xbox system.
Which can mean one of two things:
a) Bioware can't release Mass Effect for any system released before the Xbox 8 (or whatever it's called)
b) Bioware can't release Mass Effect for any system until the Xbox 8 is released; following Xbox 8's release, they can release it for whatever system they want to.

Is he permabanned too?
Generation are only defined by one thing and that is release dates. Are we going to argue that the PSX was last gen compared to the N64 because it started life as a SNES addon? That's how ridiculous most of the gen talk sounds.
KHDD suffered from two things.
1. Platform switching way too much.
2. Userbase being soured on the last DS KH games.
It sold very meh, not because of the platform (which has already shown that it can support that type of game from first and third parties) but because of Square's insentience of milking its franchises poorly.
Yeah I was kinda pissed that you needed essentially every platform to be able to experience the whole series. Still waiting on the HD collection of 1 and 2, as I haven't completed either of them in their entirety. I want to hop on DDD, but again, I haven't completed 1 or 2, so the story's gonna be a complete clusterfuck.

No real solid rumors. Just more confirmation that Nintendo's E3 lineup is going to be awesome.
Well, DDD does have a little book thing in the game that summarizes the entire story pretty well.
Whoa, didn't know that, thanks.
Nintendo released a secret intoxicating gas with the Wii that convinced people they were buying and playing 3DSs. Pachter however never plays his Wii so he was never infected and revealed the truth, the 3DS is dead. We have all been deceived by the spin machine.

Can't Ideaman just PM a mod or something? :/
Just post your news in this thread and get it split off into a new topic.

What's even worse is, even owning a platform doesn't guarantee you can play the Kingdom Hearts game. Square made a clear decision that they weren't ever going to release the game for PSPGo, though the game was released after the Go. So even though I have a PSP, I can never play the PSP Kingdom Hearts game, which was one of the main ones in the story.
I have a friend who'se the same way, and he loves the series, but he isn't going to get the 3DS game because he missed out on too much of the story from the other platforms.

Poor old Mr. Pork, what's he done this time? Just as I was thinking he'd been remarkably sane lately

Samus, of course.
Though, Shulk is up there.
And NFC.
Some of those aren't fair, since they're already confirmed.
I'm not sure but I think he is
iirc he was banned back in april on that Nintendo Direct thread
Ace, what was talked about?
I know. I was pleasantly surprised at his apparently change of attitude after coming back. Poor bastard.
Not directly by Nintendo, they aint.
Also, rule number one of the Bingo card thread:
Greg from Project H.A.M.M.E.R

Just stuff from the Bonus Round.
Shane saying, once again, that the lineup from first and third parties is looking spectacular.
It was announced months ago by Iwata himself.

Cool. I'm ready for E3 already!
That conspiracy theory is a lot more plausible then some of the things I heard in that documentary, so who knows.
Also, I can't believe Burnt Pork is really perma-banned. I read the comments he made on that page, and I didn't think they were really bad at all. Was he saying bad stuff earlier in that thread? Either way, that's a shame; I thought he was an alright dude.

Is it against the rules to create a "fallen" thread for the inevitable bannings, just to keep up with who doesn't make it through e3?

So, as expected, we didn't learn a whole lot from the Bonus Round thing, right? Then again, a Sunday is a really odd day to learn anything new in the gaming world on.

Ah, NFC was yeah. What I mean by NFC on the Bingo card is that NFC will be properly "revealed" at E3, possibly in line with accessories by Ubisoft (hence the Rabbid, and in keeping with the leaked Rayman video the other week).
I just don't have the space to put that in the box.
Also, rule number one.. you can have confirmed stuff (and as far as I'm aware, NFC is the only one on there officially confirmed by anyone)
Probably.

I think we got our biggest reveal for the week yesterday.
Unless, of course, that one guy turns out correct and we hear something Monday or Tuesday from a third party marketing agency.
Bah, the entire point of a Bingo Card is to reach for the stars! The more outlandash the square, the more fun it is when you check them!

A close second would be Red.

They said they'd have 7, actually.
And Legends is likely to be one, yes.

True, although to be fair GTA V, RE6, new Retro IP and any support from Valve would be far enough in the stars for me that I'd pass out and my face would implode.
LUIGI FTW
Btw, Weevil's only banned for a month.
Gimme a name, Cabbie. (It's somebody from Golden Sun though, right?)
Also, I would say that I'm pretty boring, as I think Mario is their best, followed up by Link. Mario just basically is gaming to a lot of people.

A look through his post history and just the fact that it exists at all is pretty much all the confirmation you need.

Samus, closely followed by Link.
K thanks. Just saw the vid myself and it was nice to hear again.
I still find it quite weird that someone like Shane Satterfield still believes it's just 360/PS3 tech. Pachter of all people said it would be more powerful.
Yep. All of the characters of Golden Sun have great designs. I love the style.
I remember playing the first one on the GBA and loving it. Never played another one though sadly.
I'm still unsure if i'll make the thread or not. I wasn't able to have a Wii U confirmed developer with up-to-date knowledge of the system, to vouch for the latest batch of info i got. At least to moderators, if he want to stay off-the-grid, which i understand.
Basically, it will be: "i've heard it's that, blablabla"
followed by "who is this guy" from people not participating here or in PC threads where i post sometimes
followed by people defending me & my info
i like the debates, the speculation, the theorycrafting, anticipating things from the info
but the quote wars, not much lol
I'll see
Well I'd suggest it was to simply not split focus for people. Almost everyone there will be there to hear about Wii U. If they dilute that experience with 3DS it will draw attention and time away from Wii U.
