I would actually be quite happy if that's what they were going to launch. The concept of it seems great.

Shades of the Famicom Disk System? The concept of the iQue is to copy games onto the Flash memoy cards--I don't think Nintendo's new console is based around that...unless it has an optional port for it that will be integrated in the design--but why buy the game when you could probably copy from a friend or download a hacked rom (barring some insane protection scheme). I predict the new home console will have Gameboy Advance/next gen gameboy compatibility out of the box.
Its not the iQue either. You can't unviel something twice.
What I don't get about the iQue is that you get to "demo" Ocarina of Time for like 10 hours or something, and beyond that you gotta pay $6 for the game. Is there any way to transfer your save? i'd be pissed if i had to play the 10 hours of the game over again.
Oh christ... :confused:Quote:
Yes, it is too soon to be unveiling the "N-Five". The GameCube is hitting its stride right now-
They should release the Nintendo Baseball Bat. Not only can you pretend to be your favorite cartoon superhero Captain Baseball Bat Boy, but you can also recreate your favorite printer scene from Office Space with your Gamecube!
"Henshin a GoGo!? FUCK DOES THAT MEAN!?"
Smash!
It's not a new console, nor is it the iQue. A new console would be stupid, and the iQue makes no sense for any market other than China.
theres so many things it could be
that rumored 1st party LCD monitor they showed off before the GC came out or that Hard drive they were working on with IBM again talked about before the GC came out
who the hell knows
I do.
segway.
Nintendo releasing a set top box is silly. Nintendo is not an electronics company and I don't think I'd buy anything other than a gaming machine from them.
Well... I guess they ARE an electronics company in a way, but you know what I mean.
