Re: The N64 and Nintendo’s Fall From Grace

greyelephant

I remember the first time I saw a Nintendo 64. I was at ToysRUs with my wife and I remember watching a kid play Mario 64. I knew right then I needed this system. They had some great games (that I still own to this day), but failed in the end when it came to competing with the PS1. In the end, Nintendo lost lots of its 3rd party software parties simply because the cartridges were too expensive to develope compared to disks. I loved my N64 even to this day and can't believe how dissapointed I was to see the crown passed to Sony.

I ended up buying the Gamecube as well. I also bought the PS2 and found it to be superior as well.

Thank goodness for the Wii. Yes, I know I'm somewhat of a fanboy when I say I grew up with Nintendo and always wish to see them do well.

I found this interesting. Here's Febuary's sales here in the U.S. as of March 20, 2009.

Nintendo sold 753,000 Wii players last month. U.S. stores sold 391,000 Microsoft Xbox 360 players, a gain of 53 percent, and 276,000 of Sony's PlayStation 3, a 1.7 percent decline.

Ebay is where I got Super Princess Peach for my daughter. Figured I'd try to save some money. The auctions look legit enough, but once you get the package in the mail, you know right away somethings wrong. The box, the game itself, and the instructions are all conterfiet. Like you said, atleast I didn't pay through the nose.

Re: New WiiWare Game: Fish'em All

The graphics look nice and I do enjoy virtual fishing. Let's just see how this all plays together and maybe we'll have something worth while.

Wiiware has some great looking games coming.

This looks good. I would've liked to seen a bit more of a better demo, but overall it looked very nice. Once again, this might be a pickup as long as the reviews hold tight.

I really like this new design. Thanks to everyone for their hard work to make this happen. This will really open us all up to an even bigger crowd for even better topics and responses. I do have a question. Who are all the moderators? Is there a place to find all the names of who does what? Thanks again.
