Analyst says that weak Japanese sales of Nintendo's handheld will see second hardware revision before the end of the year
Nintendo has a history of refining its hardware offerings, and leading games analyst Michael Pachter has, on the back of the firm's strong financials, predicted that the platform holder's world-conquering DS could see its third incarnation hit retail before the year is out.
Nintendo made a significant move by issuing a DMCA notice to take down more than 8,500 clones of the popular Switch emulator, Yuzu.
The more they try to stop it, the more publicity it gets. The fact is that Yuzu will forever live on torrent and other sites. Nintendo is fighting an uphill battle.
There is nothing stopping these people from working on Yuzu clones and sharing them on torrent sites. Nintendo or anyone else cannot do shit about torrents or usenet.
lol Nintendo keep fighting this but it never ends. Why do they feel the need to persist? I guess they are in too deep now they have to
Super Mario 64 DS was offered as a launch title for the Nintendo DS, a remake of the classic platform game with a few original tricks.
Needs more appreciation. I never had an N64 so this was what I played. Sure the Yoshi hat mechanic at first is a slog but you unlock Mario and the others for real and then it takes off. Personally I never had an issue with the controls. Can't forget the mini games and the 4 player rumble over download play.
Indeed, as stated in the article there were tonnes of control options and very much a 'take whatever you like, leave the rest' attitude to most of the game's extras.
Space opera fans deserve a chance to experience the vastness of Infinite Space, and Sega needs to make up for its mistake.
I still go back to Infinite Space from time to time. Probably the most underrated game I ever played.
Isn't this like predicting the sun will rise tomorrow?
We'll know for sure at the Tokyo Game Show (TGS), if not announced there then it won't be this year.
I for one fully expect Nintendo to milk this for as long as they can, I would think Fall '09 more likely than by the end of '08.
It won't have to play GBA games but it better play DS games then it's golden ^^
Reggie said flat out at E3, no new DS hardware in '08.
what else could they update to it? is it worth picking one up now, or waiting for a new one?
