Well you never know, it would have been good if they just let you download them for nothing because they are classic games and that would be good for new fans of Nintendo to see the history of the Nintendo Consoles and that would be awesome XD. But that aint happening ;-;. Well they did say the Nintendo Revolution is going to be cheaper than the other 2 when it is released, which has happened when the Cube came out, which I like that they do this because that means they aren't over ?300 to buy, more like ?150-200. Which is awesome with the amount of power and the quality of games Nintendo have. That alone would attract more people to Nintendo. Even though I don't like the other two companied it is kinda good because Nintendo finally have competition xD. Big competition in reality but I think they aren't big competition. Nintendo have and always will be the best XD

Yes Ganondorf is the final boss of the LoZ games and it is so fun beating in OOT, I love that XD. Plus I agree with pokejungle, you should get the Wind Waker, it is largly misunderstood for the kiddy graphics but it is still a really good game, not as good as OOT but it is still a relll good game that is worth playing.

I agree that Metroid games are that good, you just need patients and you will soon find out where to go. Metrois Prime 1 and 2 are like 2 of the best games on the cube, especially Metroid Prime 2, which was freaking awesome, I totally loved playing that, you just really need to put your time into playing this kind of game and then you will find out how awesome Metroid games are. Metroid Prime 2 is better than 1 IMO but you was just saying what you think on them

Hmm Super Smash Bros movie, somehow that sound like a little lie made up by someone, somehow I don't really think that happened.

Ganadorf is the last boss in ever game!?

You misunderstood me. I could see why. It's not a Super Smash Brothers movie, it's a Mario Brothers movie. They go into this picture and save the world. Koopa is the bad guy in it, not Bowser. And yes, I did see it. It's on Disney Channel, like once a year.
 
yeah, if you think about it, it does take a lot of work to set those games up to dl, and with it being the cheapest system, it really does make sense for them to charge. i like andy's idea about the free dls with games and with the sys - there are only a few i want, anyways. Nintendo is being generous enough - asking for them to set up every console game and put it on a server so that we could download it for free is a bit too much to ask. would be nice, but not ethical.
 
Well that is one great thing about Nintendo, they always seem to do deals and be generous, they know how to market things, plus they make special GBS's for certain games and throw it in a bundle, so even if someone hasn't got a GBA or Gamecube they can always get one with atleast one game added, without having to spend more on buying them seperatley. The games tend to be big releases too. On this downloading thing, somehow I think they won't charge an awful lot for one download because I don't think it is their style to do that. Plus firstly it will be internet ready out the box which means nothe like XBOX live so you don't have to buy packs and I have to say that is generous enough for me.

No need to apoligize.

Can anybody tell me some information about GameBoy Micro?
 
All the features of an SP except regular headphone jack, backlit screen and a two inch screen.

Loads from the bottom. Looks SEXY!

Yea I also don't see them downloads costing all that much. 5-10 dollars maybe, really 10 bucks is pushing it. I really don't think they would even go that high for downloads. They might even keep their games at 50 dollars a game when the PS3 and 360 will be 60 dollars more maybe even 70 (that Blu-Ray on the PS3 most likely will cost more) per game. If Nintendo sticks with the way they always been then they will have stuff lower price so more people can get it. Most of the time when stores have stuff on sale they make more money because it's lower. Lots of people might flock to the Rev because the online stuff is free, the Rev might be lower priced and the games might be loser price then PS3 and 360 games (thus might in the end make more money then the other two).

Read this and it tells everything about the GBM. It's going to be a lot smaller then the other Game Boys and it looks nice, but to me I think the Flame SP looks better. XD
 
yeah, we already know the internet is free, so they most likely will charge to dl games, but not more than $5. After all, the games are old, and keeping the prices low will draw more profits. Your right, stevo, Nintendo is extremely generous.

Btw, does anyone know the official date for when the DS will go online?
 
To bad that we can't download old games for free.
I hope that it won't costs much (I mean I don't want to spend 10 bucks just to play paperboy)
I still think it's better to make game disks for the old games, like those compilation disks for the gamecube(sonic, megaman, zelda(which I have :D ), street fighter, etc) for a small fee.
I would love to see that with ALL mario games :classic: .

About ganondorf, it isn't the endboss in:
-Adventure of link(dark link)
-Link's awakening(nightmare)
-Majora's mask(majora's mask)
-Four swords(vaati)
-Minish cap(vaati)
And if you don't know, the oracle series has ganon in the game as the secret final boss.

BTW: I finished Metroid Prime 2 yesterday :rambo: .
I only died once at the emperor and Dark Samus was way to easy.
The boost ball gardian is the hardest from the game for me.
It had a cool ending, Samus got rid of her suit and you saw her head(to bad it wasn't as good as Metroid Prime 1).
I think that MP2 was a tad bit easier than MP1, because the final boss in MP1 is much harder(and I hate the stupid Impact Crater you must cross, those **** fission metroids)

Oww...... I just realised that I left my gamecube on for like 5 hours with my new game Harvest Moon: A Wonderfull Life (It was very cheap).
I mean even the GBA version of the game was twice as expencive.

Have a good night to you all.

@ Cmatz0: the DS wil go online arround next year (or maybe earlier).

Well I hope it isn't like ?10 per game but I don't think it will be, maybe ?1 or ?2.50. But I don't really see them making it an extautionate price to download one game. This is because Nintendo want to expand the amount of customers and if they did make the prices foe the downloads alot per game that wouldn't be a very good Market strategy IMO, but still the fact that you get it right out the box and can instantly get on the Net is so awesome I say it over and over XD. I never expected that to happen lol.

Yeah Nintendo do usually sell their games and hardware at lower prices but in some cases that makes think the games and the hardware isn't as good because of it, but very few think that. Even though the Revolution won't be as powerful as the other two doesn't bother me one bit, what is the point in putting so much power in a home comsole. The main point of a hom gaming console is "GAMING" and you don't need lots and lots of power for that, all you really need is sweet graphics so it is nice to look at and really enjoyable gameplay, for me Nintendo delivers that every time ^^. With games like Donkey Kong, Mario, LoZ, Metroid Prime, Starfox and more you have alot of variety there and lots of enjoyable gaming.

are you sure? where did you hear that? i heard that they moved the date up to July, but i was asking for an official release date.
 
I agree with cmatz0....it's coming VERY soon. Nintendo has them up already and is just fixing bugs right now =3
 
It was already said or something >>; Either at teh GDC or the E3, although I believe it was at the first.

Just a couple tune ups left ^_~

Well I think the reason why Nintendo sells stuff lower is because they can. I mean I'm sure a lot of us disliked it when the GC didn't have a DVD player. But if it did like the PS2 and the X-Box then the price would have been a lot higher (DVD players don't cost as much now days, so I guess that's why they are going to put one in the Rev).The PS2 Played DVDs, CDs, DVD-Roms and so on. I'm sure the X-Box could do the same. By doing so they had to make their price go up to pay for all them things added on to it. Nintendo sticks with what a game system should be, a game system. They don't add tons of things to them (DS doesn't have an MP3, MP4 player, it doesn't play movies and so on like the PSP. Thus keeping their price low and keeping the price to something a 12 or 13 year old could buy). I'm sure we all like the nice add-ons to the systems, but it's going to cost more for all that. Buy a Dell computer and have add-ons and you're going to pay more for it.

If they stick with the way they are going now and go on the same with the Rev and GBE then they are going to make money. Like you said, the power isn't as good as the PS3 and the 360 (well we think it isn't, Nintendo hasn't spit out much specs on the Rev. So for all we know it might blow the PS3 and 360 away, but I don't think that will be happening. The PS3 is a no way, but the 360 well read back on some of my post in here about the next LoZ game on the GC and the 360 and you'll see wha tI'm talking about). But if the games are good then it will make up for the graphics or whatever. Ask Final Fantasy Fans what the best FF game is, and you will most likely hear 90-95% of them say Final Fantay VII (7 is the king of all Final Fantay games, it's Square's FF pride and joy). But the graphics are bad (you hear all these people dis the DS graphics, well FFVII doesn't really stand up too well to the DS' graphics), but the game play is great. That's what matters, if the Rev games are great the graphics doesn't have to be right up there with KillZone on the PS3.

Yeah I agree on that, if the graphics aren't as good but the gameplay is really good and fun then I can let the graphics slip. But being as most the games on the Gamecube have sweet graphics and awesome gameplay, such as games like Metroid Prime 1 & 2 etc. Then that is even better. I am expecting the graphics to be tons better than the cube, but like I said they stick to the emphasis of gaming and not all this added on stuff to make is so that it is the only thing you need next to your TV, yes they do keep it so that the younger generation can have one too. So they don't add all these extras like the other 2, as for me on the Gamecube not having a DVD player, I wasn't all that bothered about it. I love my Gamecube, it has some really awesome games for it.

Ah I hated the boost gaurdian ><. The Spider Ball Gaurdian was kind of irritating too, but Dark Samus was always easy for me, just way too easy XD. I died on the Emporer Ing and a couple of others including the lump of metal but I found it an awesome game and in my ending she took off all her suit at the end and was just in the leather type undersuit XD. It was awesome, cus I got a 90 something percentage completion on my first time through.

So what upcoming games on the GC, GBA and DS is everyone wanting?

Right now I'm thinking about Twilight Princess, Snowboard Kids DS (I loved them two games on the N64), Pokemon Diamond/Pearl. Right now that's all I can think of right off the top of my head.

Oh and what does everyone think about Play-Yan? Going to get it when it gets out of Japan?
If it comes with the SD Flash Memory Card then I might get it (a site selling them is selling them for $80 dollars). If it doesn't have a USB port to download the songs off the computer then I can't get it (no way for me to get the songs from the computer to the card).

Oh and here is a little thing on the Revolution (nothing much, just telling that Donkey Kong is a game that's going to be on the Rev but nothing on Pokemon yet).
