ooh. rumours. thats really gonna satisfy me. or not. when nintendo officially says they are gonna release a new gameboy this year, let me know.


Damn you are being dumb man. The ds was well know before nintendo annouced it so why is this any different. If you are going to buy this new gameboy than you are more of a fanboy than I am.

and no, its not hard at all to play metroid. its really really easy. trust me, the psp wouldnt last one minute with a fpsgame like metroid. you know why? it doesnt have the controller for it. ds on the other hand is the first great console for fps. metroid is a really good example of this.


Do you realise you just said that as a fan not a gamer. Anyone will tell that a fps need's an analog stick.



strange. i have never seen a computer with an analog stick. it works great for me without it.

have you even tried metroid on the ds? when playing with the touchscreen you get the accuracy you cant get with an analog stick. thats not just me saying it, thats facts.

Computer fps are with a keyboard and mouse or analog if you have a controler.

i didnt know anything about it. i heard about it when everybody else did, approx one year ago. i dont know if ill buy the gameboy. i buy gameconsoles, not multimedia devices. thats why i dont know if ill buy revolution or nexboy. and i might be more fanboy than you, might not. i have no idea. i just know that i like nintendo and sega =).

exactly, a keyboard and mouse. the touchscreen is the mouse on the ds. analog sticks are not as good as the mouse or the touchscreen. like i said, you dont get the accuracy.

and about the nexboy, that page basically just said the same thing as the other. thats just rumours. although, ign wrote better and made me think more that nexboy might come out this winter. but nobody knows right? nintendo is keeping their mouths shut, and the "experts" can only guess. but i now see it more as a possibility that it will come out this year.

I know this is a bit off topic, but this issue needs adressing:

Top of the software charts is - predictably - Tekken 5, but its 174,000 units shifted are far fewer than the half million bullishly forecast by Namco. Is the long running franchise, historically very popular in Japan, finally running out of steam?

The answer to this is simple: NO

Whilst it's true that tekken 4 was not as good as anticipated, and well, let's be honest slightly crap, tekken 5 looks to improve on this, it looks better than ever,and has a host (well,ok 3) new characters and some classic fighters from tekken 2, and i personnaly will be one of the greatest games of the year.
