Late Night Consoling
by jason bergman, Aug 23, 2001 8:30pm PDTSorry for non-Nintendo fans, but the overwhelming majority of news here is all GameCube-related.
- Here's what we've all been waiting for, direct-feed, in-game footage from Soul Calibur 2. - Even more GameCube footage is up at Cube.IGN, including the first looks at the new Legend of Zelda title and Mario Sunshine, Star Fox Adventures (including a glimpse at the flying mode) and a whole lot more. - Puzzled by the radical reworking of The Legend of Zelda on display in the above movie? Here's Miyamoto's explanation for it. - Speaking of excuses, here's the reason why there aren't going to be any online announcements at this year's show. They still don't believe there's any money in it. - It looks like Street Fighter Alpha 3 for the Game Boy Advance will feature single-cart multiplayer. Cooool - One last SpaceWorld story for you: CoreMagazine has a Q&A with Shigeru Miyamoto online, where he comments on the GBA's screen, GameCube development and more. Another Q&A can be found at The GIA (which actually is excerpted in a few other places). - Namco has released a trailer from Xenosaga, which if you're anything like me, is an absolute must-see. - And finally, new screenshots from the Xbox title Dead or Alive 3 are up at GameSpot Japan (thanks Team Xbox).Console game of the evening: Todd's Adventures in Slime World for the Atari Lynx. One of my all-time favorite deathmatch games, which unfortunately was doomed to obscurity because of the failure of the Lynx.

Damnit damnit damnit.... NO! I don't want Jet Grind Zelda, I want something I can put in the system, turn it on, and blow myself away. I want to see Link and cream my shorts Oh wait, I already do that
"In a new Zelda, is a grown up Link something I really wanted to pursue?"
The feeling in my loins says YES!]b

About all this Zelda mess...
I just saw a quicktime mov (reel1.mov) on IGN.com.
On the last scene, there is a picture of a man who looooks like LINK. But, he looks like the one in the OLD videos.
So, maybe nintendo is making 2 Zelda games?

Anyone else hope that this game isn't just a 1st person shooter with a metroid setting but that it will ACTUALLY make you feel like you have a power suit on? (doing kickass mid air rolls, turning into that ball thing, haveing cool purple suit powerups... etc.)
When they show those first person scenes, looks like it could be any 1st person game.

More and more, I'm just seeing the purchase of the GC as a reason to play a select few exclusives.

Leave us not forget "Golden-Eye" for the N64, or for that matter "Tetrisphere" for the same systems, and both outstanding games. Golden-Eye for its deathmatch, and Tetrisphere for..... well um..... just the whole damn thing. Twas one of the most enjoyable games I have played in a looong time... Still play when I get the chance.
(My 2 cents)

After seeing what I "thought" was link in the '01 spaceworld demo I was not only stunned, but also wondering, what the heck happened to the space we saw at e3? The old demos back then were far suprior than this cell-shaded crap I saw today. I still like Nintendo, and will still go out and buy a gamecube, but I do not know where Nintendo went wrong. I enjoyed seeing the older like fight it out with gannon. I really did. I thought to myself, I could see myself playing that game and it was good. Now, I don't know why would I pick this new link title up? Does it have something new? No, Jet Grind Radio has done it before. Why Nintendo, Why?
Bring me back old Link, not soem pussy-assed tween with a sword.

It's true about the mouse and KB, but honestly, I can't see M$ not releasing this in a year or two. I mean, it is just a trojan horse to get a sophisticated internet appliance into the home of millions.

gg Miyamoto
I thought that was what the engine for the next Zelda was going to be. Was that just a tech demo?
I have never been a Zelda fan, but that footage rocked. This anime cartoon crap looks terrible. Maybe Nintendo wanted to downplay the realistic hack and slash violence to it by making it more cartoonish.
