21 games at or around launch isn\'t too bad...
Let\'s examine the list
There are 7 games that are 1st/2nd party, and 14 that are 3rd party.
That\'s not too bad.... right?
-
I\'ve seen a few release lists lately, but this one looks the most promising. What with Eternal Darkness, Madden, Pikmin, SSBM, Wave Race, and SSX Tricky all tentatively planned for launch (SSX Tricky on the 15th); that makes 7 for 1st/2nd party, 14 for 3rd party, and 6 for my television set.
I\'m gonna be broke this Winter, but I\'ll be damned if I won\'t be enjoying it, heh.
Oh, and I\'m not a fanboy... I\'m sure some other consoles will have some ok games too, or something... ;]
-Eik
-
I think it is solid. That\'s a lot more than I expected from Nintendo at first. I hope this list holds up though... Nintendo might attempt to delay a couple of 3rd party games to help sell their (Nintendo) games.
-
hmmm that\'s a possible thinking strategy, but I\'d have to suggest against it. I think, for the benefit of the public\'s view of the "new nintendo", they really need the MAXIMUM amount of 3rd party titles out there at launch. I think a lot of people will be pleased with that lineup, I damn sure am. And we already know from confirmed games lists, that following this launch will be another wave of top quality nintendo games, and 2nd and 3rd party games.
Yes, nintendo have gotten things right thus far, I just hope they don\'t delay 3rd party games
-
Well...the list is impressive...I can\'t wait for Nintendo\'s Jewel :)
-
Lugi\'s Mansion, Pikimin and Batman are the only titles I see interesting for launch. Maybe Star Fox, but I truly doubt it.
Too bad Resident Evil 0 won\'t make launch.
:(
-
I think i might buy a GC just to snub Xbox :D
j/k.
-
yEAH Luigi, Stars wars, and Eternal Darkness are the only games I see worth buying. Madden has always been on nintendo and it is never any good. Inside court is a horrible basketball games so I would never get that.
I am not a big wave race fan. I could get a cube at launch but I am going to wait and just stick with XBOX.
Early 2002 better games will be out.
-
I love super smash brothers that game is so addictive. me and my friends would have tournements...... good times.
-
Hmm . . . the only titles which interest me are these: Boldfaced titles being one\'s I\'m probably going to buy.
Luigi\'s Mansion
Super Smash Bros.
Eternal Darkness Nintendo
Star Fox Adventures
Wave Race
Batman Dark Tomorrow
I\'m pretty much sold on a Game Cube, and this list isn\'t all that bad. It\'s certainly leaps and bounds beyond their last system launch lineup. But I was kind of hoping for a Mario title, or perhaps the new Metroid. They most likely wouldn\'t launch Mario and Luigi at the same time though, considering the Mario title would overshadow it\'s counterpart, cutting into sales. It just doesn\'t seem like a Nintendo launch without Mario, though.
Geesh, this is going to be one expensive year! I\'ve never been bombarded with so many video game expenses as I am now.
Is this good or bad? I lost perspective on the matter last October with PS2 :boom:
Frodo
-
Egad, only three of those titles interest me. What a dissapointment.
-
I\'m extremely happy with this list. Most Nintendo systems usually get only 1 or 2 games at launch but NGC is getting 17! Who was the idiot that said Nintendo has no 3rd parties? :p
The titles that interest me are:
Eternal Darkness
Luigi\'s Mansion
Wave Race:Blue Storm
Pikmin
Star Wars Rogue Leader: Rogue Squadron 2
Star Fox Adventures(although I\'m a little skeptical on this one)
That\'s six, and I\'ll only be able to afford a measly ONE at launch and two a Christmas. Yeah, being 14 sucks. Too bad Nintendo isn\'t spredding their big hits out. That would seriously help me.
The thing that scares me is that the majorityof hits will come out in 2002 and I\'ll already be broke by then. In 2002, GameCube will get Too Human, the next Mario, a Pokemon game that will connect with GBA which will sell like mad, the next Zelda, Perfect Dark 2, METROID, Kameo, and probably a whole lot more that are still unknown. I have to get all these games because they have a hold on me. Yes, Pokemon may be extremely kiddie, but the GBC versions were just so ****ing addictive and fun, they\'re really underrated by hardcore RPG fans. I have to get Mario because it\'s Mario, I have to get Zelda because it\'s Zelda, I have to get Too Human because the ET engine is using a smaller version of Too Human\'s and this game has been in development for a vast amount of time, I have to get PD2 because Goldeneye, and I have to get Metroid because it\'s Metroid. Yeah, all these games have a major hold on me and I must have them. I might only get 1 or 2 games within 2001 for NGC because of them. Damn you Nintendo.

Well im only intrested in rouge squadron 2, the launch would of been complete with pd2, and resident evil 0, hmm i dont know if im still getting gc?

You may fool someone people, but you certainly won\'t fool me.
You were never, EEEEEEEVVVVVVEEEEERRR, planning on getting a NGC. Yes, it\'s me, Link/Ganon from the fallen consoledome, I remember you perfectly. Your an idiot who deserves to be shot and raped for your stupidity.
You are a fanboy, goodbye. :laughing:
-
First of all, i have defintely changed , well a litle, i have thought about getting gc but not sure, believe i been at http://www.nchamber.com at they changed me, you can catch me thier if im banned, 2nd you call me a fanboy, hahahahaha your a fanboy your self, and you deserved to be raped by a million homos, then hung haahahahah , cya around buddy!!!!
-
First of all, i have defintely changed , well a litle
A little is the key part. You may not be a huge fanboy like you used to be but your still a complete moron.
thought about getting gc but not sure
Don\'t lie to me, *****. Your probably to poor to afford one anyways.
believe i been at http://www.nchamber.com at they changed me
Let me guess: They insulted the **** out of you too? :laughing: I\'m looking in one topic there right now and it would appear that your not to liked there.
2nd you call me a fanboy, hahahahaha your a fanboy your self
I\'m a gamer, try be one sometime. I\'m able to enjoy all systems, unlike you. I own PSX, DC, Genesis, used to own a Saturn, N64, and plan on getting NGC and eventually PS2.
and you deserved to be raped by a million homos, then hung haahahahah
Haha, what a clever comeback! :rolleyes:
cya around buddy!!!!
I OWN YOU. You are my toy and when ever I feel like playing with you and brutilizing you then I will.
This was fun. I hope we can do this again sometime. I haven\'t had a moron to play around with for ages. Please stay here and keep me amused. :)
-
You always seem to make me laugh, ok well im not a %100 percent fanboy, i enjoy playing dc, and my n64 , but im always gonna like my ps2 the best, im looking for more gamecube games to decide if its good enough, your probally an idiot and dont believe me but i dont care. I hope consoledome comes back up i wanna go back thier and show everyone how much i changed, and im gonna prove external 12 wrong he dident believe me that crazy taxi was comin to ps2. And you think im your toy, hahaah im your worst nightmare you thought you got rid of me , but i\'ll never go away until you die and your soul roughts away and gets eaten by little rats like external 12 and the other cdmembers! ahahahhaahah!!!!!
-
Boring.
You always seem to make me laugh
Cry, complain, shiver, are the more appropriate words to use in that sentence.
i enjoy playing dc, and my n64 , but im always gonna like my ps2 the best
Don\'t pull this crp on me.
im looking for more gamecube games to decide if its good enough
A true gamer would see them already but your just a common fanboy.
your probally an idiot and dont believe me but i dont care.
Probally? Point taken, you have no intelligence.
I hope consoledome comes back up i wanna go back thier and show everyone how much i changed
What ever. They\'re smart enough to know that your still idiot. They don\'t even need to hear from you to know that. :laughing:
and im gonna prove external 12 wrong he dident believe me that crazy taxi was comin to ps2.
You didn\'t prove him wrong, Sony did you dumb ****nut(ah, I love using that word, I forgot about it for awhile).
And you think im your toy, hahaah im your worst nightmare you thought you got rid of me , but i\'ll never go away until you die and your soul roughts away and gets eaten by little rats like external 12 and the other cdmembers! ahahahhaahah!!!!!
Oooh I\'m scared. :laughing: You must have no social life if you still remember External 12 because that was ages ago. Your a pest alright, but your MY pest. And I\'ll squash you when ever I want. You may come back, but that\'s because I want you to. :)
-
I still remember external 12, cuz the idiot emailed me a couples times callin me some stupid names. Actually bobs thinks ive changed so does wingzero, Well i\'ll make a topic to annoy you later, im goin to see pearl harbor , well have fun being infested by maggots, you giant sack of crap, and you think you can squash me, then you have anotheir thing coming, see you in hell jackass

See if I give a flying ****.

Can you not read? I said your not as much of a fanboy anymore but your still a complete moron. Rearrage these letters to find the word I\'m looking for: R-E-T-A-D-R. This should take him awhile. :laughing:
Well i\'ll make a topic to annoy you later
No, YOU\'LL make a topic to attempt to annoy me later. Bob isn\'t that immature and Wing Zero isn\'t even here anymore you gimp.
im goin to see pearl harbor
:laughing: What a girl! :laughing:

Wow! When did you get so good at insulting? :rolleyes:
and you think you can squash me, then you have anotheir thing coming, see you in hell jackass
HA! Just try it fool. I am your god. I own you. Remember that next time when you make another senseless post.
-
Congratulations, another fine thread went down the drain... but for some unknown reasons I\'m feeling generous today so I\'ll give this thread one more chance.
-
Eternal Darkness
Rogue Squadron 2
Resident Evil 0
Smash Bros. 2
I won\'t be getting a Gamecube until after the end of 2001, though. Too many PS2 games will be draining away my holiday season cash.
SLIMSHADY739, Jumpman: Real nice little conversation you guys are having. Your complete lack of maturity and spelling/grammar skills is amusing.
-
And so another decent thread manages to crash and burn thanks to the exploits of Jumpman.
N-E-Ways. The line-up is nice but it could be better. The only games I am going to get for launch are Smash Brothers and Star Fox. I\'ll probably get Madden(Its a tradition always get a new football game with a new console). I hope they add a REAL Mario game to the list so I can get that also.
BTW, Does anyone know when the Xbox launch lineup is going to be announced? They won\'t even let us pre-order the Xbox at Funcoland. What kinda crap is that?

Find one spelling mistake besides when I wrote "rearraged" when it should be rearranged. Go ahead, try. And who cares if I spelt something wrong or didn\'t use proper grammar. This isn\'t school so I\'m not trying to sound smart and use big words unlike some here(my grammar was just fine for a message board btw). Also, I find this fun. If you think that\'s immature then great but don\'t spoil it for me since I like doing this to other people.
What\'s your problem today?

Im sry for "Jumpmans" lack of respect, hes an idiot, well any way , sry and dont shut this thread because of our actions, which i say he started dont believe me go look.

He started it...LOL! You want lack of maturity 182Ways, there you go.
I see your giving up, pathetic, but also typical.
Anyways, is anyone here besides me interested in Pikmin?
-
no i think were a little "Matured" for pikimin, anyone but me really want more of metroid prime!
-
Coincedentally, you two seem to be on at the same time, in both occasions. :rolleyes:
Anyways, I think that launch is pretty impressive. I\'m interested in:
- Pikmin
- Star Wars: Rogue Leader
- Batman: Dark Tomorrow
- Eternal Darkness
- Luigi\'s Mansion
- Waverace: Blue Storm
I\'ll only be buying maybe two games at launch, however. One multiplayer game and one single-player game. This means, I might get Waverace: Blue Storm and either Pikmin or Eternal Darkness. Although, if Batman turns out to be good, that could be an option for a third game.
-
there is no suitable fighting game for launcha and all the otehr games don\'t really interest me, to me its a **** line-up
-

I know I must have a fighting game(on a console) or at launch. Just look at DC-soul caiblur, Ps2-TTT, Xbox-DOA3, and gamecube well........... Don\'t give me no smash bros 2 crap I want a REAL fighting game. So nintendo needs to get a huge fighter thats was a huge problem for n64.

Man, I\'m really kicking myself here...
When did it become acceptable to label others as less "Matured" for liking a particular game? Am I the only one who finds this outright rude? And we take it for granted lately...

Namco is releasing a Tekken for Gamecube, but there is still no date announced for it yet. I wouldn\'t be surprised if it came out very near launch. Also, Tecmo has said they are making a fighting game for the Gamecube (probably from the DOA series). As well, Capcom has said not to be surprised if Street Fighter finds itself on the GC at some time or another.

I\'ll believe tekken on gamecube when I\'m playing it on my t.v. screen. At e3 namco said soul cailbur 2 and tekken 4 are ps2 only and no plans to port to xbox or gamecube. So until namco confirms its, nintendo won\'t be getting no tekken.

Ever think that it doesn\'t have to be Tekken 4? If you can trust IGN Insider (which can be very hard), a version of Tekken Tag Tournament is being released for Gamecube.

At the time would that be worth coming out with an all most 2 year old port? I mean namco proably being slick again giving ps2 tekken 4 while gamecube gets TTT. Which one you think people are going to buy? Common sense would say tekken 4 since its an all new tekken and ttt been out on ps2. If people wanted TTT that bad they proalby already have a ps2.

Yeah this topic is pretty much dead, but I have to bring it back because I have some starlting news: Eternal Darkness and Pikmin are both being pushed back to a December release.

BOO!!!

BOO!!!
That sucks.......
-
That\'s actually good news if you ask me. It gives me more time to play the other games.
-
If the delays are true, it sucks but it\'s not too bad. Pikmin was never set for launch anyway, but ED is a shame. On the bright side, it\'s only a three or four week delay.
I hope it\'s false, though, I\'m looking forward to ED more than any other title so far...
-Eik
-
I agree with raslant; a two year old port of TTT wouldn\'t do very hot, especially since most people already have the game. Oh, and I believe Tecmo said they wouldn\'t release any games for the NGC in fiscal 2001. They\'ve got one game coming, but who knows what and when that\'ll be released. Capcom\'s a question mark though.

Not to mention TTT isn\'t a true sequel anyway. Do you have any idea what the temco game on gamecube is? Maybe DOA3 hardcore and notice it said sometime in 2002(temco\'s first gamecube game) which may be when the contract with doa3 exciusistly is up for xbox?

Jumpman, everytime I see you reply in a thread, a flame war begins. You are an immature, inconsiderate, vicious, arrogant, deprived person who clearly hates the world and anyone in it who doesn\'t praise you name.
Thankyou for your time.
Byebye now...

Wow...I\'m getting attacked by newbies now, shame on you world. :laughing:
OMG! I started two flame wars(technically I didn\'t start the one in the main forum since people kept flamming me but I don\'t care), I guess every thread I go in turns in to a massive flame war! :rolleyes:
How can you say I hate the world and anyone who doesn\'t praise my name? Do you actuallt think that my life revolves around this message board. If you do, then get a better ****ing educational. You can\'t make a judgment like that on someone withouth truly knowing them, your just specualting with is completely moronic.
Thanks for waisting my time, gimp.

You\'re welcome.
Can we go back to worshipping trees together Jumpman?? I loved those old times! Oh, and remember when we had sex with that donkey together! Now that was fun...Jumpman, the snails are calling us so lets help them! We can change this planet so it is as good as hair! Lets be friends again!! I love your comb man. I love your dog aswell, now he is fit, I love him yes and no becuz i waz in th e b at da him for suck with all the tr ees who.
