i find that usually works the opposite way.

Once you get a job, and find you get all that money every week, then you start to think, hey, buying a new console is only going to set my savings back 1 week. so why the hell not.


but smart move for a gaming computer especially with a good internet connection.



myself, im done with nintendo. i can see clearly that they wont change for the next gen. Sony will prolly be the only one i pick up. I have doubts about MS with the rumors saying they wont have a HD, IMO the HD is going to be very important next gen with the online games. But have to see what happens.

right now tho, looks as if i'd only pick up a PS3.

The new GCN Zelda should prove what Nintendo is capable of. The sales will prove that this is what the people want. Hopefully Ninty will take a more... serious direction with the Revolution.

no doubt it will be a great game. but it in no way shows nintendo has any means of changing. Already stating that gamers dont want online games when asked about online capibility for 'revolution', is a huge blow to em and signs point to it not being much of a revolution at all, and just more of the same from em.

it'll be the first Nintendo console i wont buy, and i feel sad about that. but GC was the first nintendo console i've been truly dissapointed with, and i dont want to make that mistake again.

Well, Nintendo IS experimenting with the DS online...

I agree though that they're losing their touch.

From what i read its not really nintendo. nintendo just hired or bought or whatever, the warp pipe guys who got some of the GC games to be able to play over the net to work on that aspect of the DS.

And its not really online persay, altho it can, its more of just networking, a network of DS's forming thier own network grid from one to another.

i know.

what im saying is nintendo themselves didnt make the DS online compatable. they HIRED the warp pipe guys to create that to put in the DS for em, or at least help them out with it.

When you buy a game on DS that is able to play on the online/network mode. your going to see a warp pipe logo on the bottom corner of the game box.


At least thats what i've read.
