No reason not to include it.
The problem is that Namco doesn't know how to handle the franchise, they refuse to believe it's a niche franchise but then make it even more niche by not releasing half of the games in the west and skipping all over the platforms.
I'd also say they F*cked up royally by not continuing the series on the Gamecube after the runaway success of Symphonia. They had a chance to make it bigger in the west and completely failed.
Nice, more and more stuff is being announced by the day. I wonder if they'll just port stuff or try some new stuff.
Yup you get one Nunchuk included and I think now they only sell Motionplus bundles but I'm not sure.
I'm not an expert of anything but why would we assume it will run at only 100mHz?
Doesn't the DS run at over at that anyway? and the PSP started off at 200 and is now over 300 isn't it?
Is it due to the different power consumption?
EDIT: Also isn't it entirely possible that the CPU or ARM processor will handle the bottom screen like with the DS as due to the design of the device they're clearly targetting the graphic...
I'll post what I posted in the other comments but the specs are the 2006 ones for the 3DS chip and it has improved since then:
In 2008 the polygon was 40 mil/sec as you can see in the image attached and it has likely improved from there in the last two years.
We know the lower limit of the 3DS' power but not exactly how powerful it is.
Apparently the Pica200 has more than chip in its line and the one posted here is the original, lowest one.
If you look at the attached image for instance you'll note that between 2006 and 2008 the polygon limit went from 15mil/sec to 40mil/sec. So the 3DS is at least this powerful but could in fact be more powerful than that.
Now just to see DMP's stocks explode.:P
Apparently the rest of the team didn't know about it until Miyamoto dropped the bomb.
Same awesome screenshots but holy crap at that artwork!
Need to see a trailer
Both are great and in HMV in the UK LKS is currently £10. What a steal.
Wii would beat a 360 in a fight confirmed!
Oh, I meant HD titles! I thought I'd put that! I don't think any HD titles will be exclusive and I doubt he'll be making a Wii title any time soon so it's more like any console titles won't be exclusive.
There already is a platformer revival though... on the Wii.
New Super Mario Bros Wii, Rabbids Go Home and A Boy and his Blob just at the end of last year and Super Mario Galaxy 2 just came out and through the end of the year there's Kirby, Donkey Kong Country, Metroid: Other M, De Blob 2, Epic Mickey, Flip's Twisted World, Jett Rocket and Sonic Colors(which actually looks semi-decent!) and I think the new Rabbids game is also a platformer!
Rayman ...
I don't think Kojima will be making any more exclusives and it's got nothing to do with bribes or betrayal.
The fact is that Konami is dependent on him and they need the Kojima brand to make as much money as possible.
3DS...believe!
Actual quotes this time then:
'With its multi-toned colour scheme, more solid frame, repositioned buttons and stylus slot amongst others, the 3DS extends the brand and improves the build quality, if not to iPhone or Droid standards, at least to beyond PSPgo.'
'As already seen with iPhone, tilt or motion control has enabled a new type of casual gaming - just think about the likes of Doodle Jump on DS?'
there's two iphone mentio...
Because it's not a real quote but you can clearly get it from the subtext and the general attitude of the website.
I don't see how it's trolling either, I'm not trolling anything.
Even in this there's the typical pro-iphone BS.
'Imagine playing Doodle Jump on your 3DS because obviously the announced 3DS line up and DS games just doesn't compare to cheap iphone apps!'
I definitely think it will be a November launch for the holidays and I think the design will only be tweaked between now and then.
