Nintendo GDC official thread

[Crash]

Tomorrow Iwata's speech:

New Zelda Trailer, DS No-line plus first games announcement, more on what revolution is (big clues come on!)

From what Reggie said, sounds like DS and Revolution use same No-line connection to get... no-line

Crapping in my pants with anticipation here.....


btw, when is sony's annoucements... the chapter 11 one?

[Jonbo298]

I think No-Line will be the catchphrase used over the next few months.

Revolution info :boing: Zelda trailer :beat:

And now now Crash, dont get too cocky now ;)

[GameMaster]

Nintendo's new catch phrase, 'no-line' leaves me feeling disappointed and frustrated. It's been made clear that we want online features and that has been ignored again.

Who knows, maybe it'll turn out to be something really cool? I'm still excited about the announcements and other cool previews.

[Crash]

but nothing can stop the ultimate catch phrase: Kick ass and take names


REGGILUTION!!!

I remember those images, people are interseting sometimes.

And GameMaster. The 'No-Line' comment was the fact that they are going for wireless play/online, hence 'No-Line'. See what I/Nintendo mean ;)

[Crash]

dont forget that this is coming too


VOICE CHAT I.M.

VOICECHAT/SMACKTALK ON MARIO KART DS


http://www.home.zonnet.nl/Dennis.Stam/ce/various/headset.jpg



I can only assume mario kart will have a firmware update built into the game that can be shared via the 802.11 to other DS's


this = my prediction

[Solid Snake]

Hopfully they will have one big "No-Line" network and not just hot spots, because it would be very hard to drag the revolution and a T.V. out to a hotspot just to play online.

Or if they also had the option of a non wireless connection like current consoles along with the option of being in a wifi network (hotspots).

[Canyarion]

I think no-line is only for DS. With the Revolution, they'll come up with something else, no?

Satoru Iwata was born in 1959 in the Hokkaido Prefecture of Japan. He studied at and graduated from the Tokyo Institute of Technology University, where he majored in computer science. Shortly after graduating, Iwata joined HAL Laboratory, Inc. and in 1983 began coordinating the software production and development of Nintendo titles, such as the Kirby series. By 1993, he had become president of that company.

In 2000, Iwata moved to Nintendo Co., Ltd. as the head of the Corporate Planning Division, where he was responsible for Nintendo's global corporate planning. In 2002, he was named president of Nintendo Co. Ltd.

Well, they might come up with something to a more detailed degree, yes. But the DS is probably their testing grounds for No-line.

No-line? Hahaha. I'm already tired of the phrase and it's only been one day. :D

[MuGen]

Heres a good one

[Jonbo298]

[Blackmane]

No-line...its kind of catchy.

1 more hour - 1 more post :D

[GameMaster]

Is it happening right now? I brought my GBA SP with me to school for good luck.

[Canyarion]

Haha did you play any games with it? :D

[GameMaster]

Yeah, you know that game where you conceal your morning wood on the bus ride to school?

The GBA-SP indirectly helped me play that game.
