Have any doubts about Nintendo?

In the newest output of the Famitsu Tetsu Kayama, Sega Chief operating Officer speaks, about the Xbox Arcade board. The Xbox Arcade board is many more efficient as per Kayama than the Triforce hardware. Therefore Sega of more plays for the Xbox than for has the Triforce hardware in development. In the next week Kayama wants to reveal the future Arcade strategy of Sega and make also first announcements of software.


(Taken from the source posted on TendoGames, from the link Blade provided. Translated from German through Babelfish)

Sega likes the Xbox Arcade hardware more than the Triforce board. That\'s all that it says, and mentions no other arcade hardware. It\'s more of a diss to Nintnedo, than a ego booster for Microsoft. Wait to see what pans out before claiming or insinuating that Sega is going to throw the majority of their weight behind it.

Even so, I still fail to see where it has any relevance. It\'s not like anyone here (or anywhere) plays or turns down an arcade game simply because of the boards inside of it.

That\'s not the point.

If Sega can get a better board for their arcade games with MS\'s Xbox board than they can with Nintendo, they\'ll go with MS\'s board.. strengthening the bond between Sega and MS again.

I believe it was EGM that confirmed that Mario Sunshine will not be the final name for a North American release.

Mario SugarCoated?

July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

The name has been officially confirmed to be Super Mario Sunshine.

You\'re one of those guys that judges the demographic for a game from its color scheme, right MM?

Tis a shame, really.. :yawn:

It does though, I mean, does Pikman come to mind... The only thing that looks remotely interesting is RES EVIL 0, and it will probably come over to PS2 or XBOX anyway when Capcom realise that parents of 12 year old kids owning GC will NOT purchase these kinda games for their kids...

Nintendo sucks major kiddie butt.
