Another Megaton hint???
 
IGN about the next issue of Famitsu:

"Next week's magazine will also include "the scoop on a surprising new game announcement." Famitsu does not specify which console the still-secret title is scheduled for."

Could it be... :eek: :D

Mushlafa 12-12-2002 11:30 AM

Angrist 12-12-2002 11:32 AM

A Pokémon Online game would. Trust me.

Dyne 12-12-2002 01:11 PM

Yay! My dear Megaton! Where have you been this past week? Killed by that Cassamasina guy?

Well well... my first thoughts of "Square Enix" were Megaton anyways. I really hope this is it. :D

(Well, hey, it's better than NOTHING!)

I wonder who will buy the exclusive rights if there is a game made for Yu-gi-oh :D

-EDIT-

Also, methinks pokemon is still popular enough to sell a whole damn lot if released on a console. The reason the show and stuff is dying is the fact that they are making it too confusing... there are WAY too many pokemon now. they probably should have added 50 memorable pokemon at a time instead of 100 unknown wierd looking ones.

More Buy out storys !!!!

CAPCOM BEING BOUGHT BY...

Nintendo, apparently, and the announcement is to be made next week: head in for the latest

15:14 According to various sources this morning, the much-rumoured Nintendo megaton announcement involves a buyout of Capcom.
The British gossip camp is split on the validity of the news, with senior insiders instantly snubbing the story as unfeasible. The rumour appears to have sprung out of the recent confirmation of a set of five GameCube exclusive titles from the company, including Resident Evil 4 and Killer 7, coupled with disappointing financials.

Far more solid is talk of a large Nintendo announcement early next week, either on Monday or Tuesday.

Others are putting the date for the announcement at just before Christmas, possibly December 23.

There's more. Sega is also rumoured to be part of the announcement. Yep, that's right: there are elements of the UK industry hearing that Nintendo is to buy Sega and Capcom. Together. Just like apple pie and custard.

Rearrange the following words: this, take, a, with, pinch, huge, of, salt. Microsoft was supposed to be buying Capcom a few weeks ago, and Nintendo Europe claims to know nothing about the megaton announcement whatsoever.

If anything else reaches our flapping ears, we'll be sure to let you know.

This little story never seem to go away!
Who is going to buy Capcom (IF any one)?

TheGame 12-12-2002 02:15 PM

bah... these rumors get on my nerves more than the old Rare ones for one reason:

IT MAKES NO SENSE

Ok, maybe they could buy out Sega... but why buy them right after they say the 2k4 games will not be coming to GCN???

I dunno about Capcom, that's more likely than Sega imo.

Mushlafa 12-12-2002 02:19 PM

I dont think Nintendo could afford sega... capcom on the other hand sounds fair.. but i dunno.. cause they havent been dion so good lately.. maybe with some help from nintendo they can help them.. but i dunnos :unsure: sounds bogus :p

BlueFire 12-12-2002 02:27 PM

All this megaton stuff is so annoying... I wish they would just say what the hell they want to reveal.

DeathsHand 12-12-2002 02:47 PM

I'm with Bluefire... annoying annoying annoying >_<

And there's so much hype that, in my mind, nothing could be megaton... :p

Capcom buying out Rare? Big deal, they already have 5 exclusive games, along with the Resident Evil series (well, 'cept RE Online)... And such... :unsure:

Why not though? It might be some sort of effort on Nintendo's part to get sports fans onto Gamecube.

And the rumor of Capcom/Sega/Nintendo continues, after a week of peace. I'm still too confused to believe any of it. I'll believe it when I see it.

Dyne 12-12-2002 03:21 PM

I think buying both Sega and Capcom would put Namco cold in the wind. Triforce anyone?

Of course, they'll need to buy Namco too.


BULL****. Everyone just keeps repeating themselves. It truly IS getting annoying.

My only thought on those three is.... Nintendo's philosophy is to both develop and publish games, with the EAD (and SHIGGY) monitoring every detail. It happened with Metroid Prime, it happened with Star Fox Adventures, and it's happened with every game out. Buying ANY company would be both hard on Shiggy and hard on Nintendo's profits already.

That's also a load of ****. What BRILLIANT DEDUCTION WE HAVE~~! Only 5 games exclusive? If COURSE it's a buyout!:rolleyes: Nintendo's monopolizing the market! SAVE YOUR KIDDIES!

I believe that Konami has the rights to Yu-gi-oh. There have allready been several games released for GameBoy and PSOne I believe.


And yes... There are way too many pokemon. They should just go back to the 151.
