rash: you worried about TTP going rev too huh? i admit I have not been reading most of the specs on the Rev, but for it to jump to the next platform, the GC chip and the Rev chip have to be direct chipset descendents. Otherwise, it would be a "rebuild from scratch" scenario. I dont think its all that likely.

Never did finish Chrono Trigger (using emu to play last time). Played until where it took place in the future & all the area become savaged. Nice game though.

This type of battle style can be found on GC RPG such as Paper Mario 2, Tales of Symphonia & Baten Kaitos.

Yup, it's because the after the end of fiscal year of Mac 2005 announcement thingy. Wasn't it's already too late to announce the release date for TP after that? Maybe Nintendo will really release this game when the Rev finally launch?

Can't wait for any announcement by Nintendo at the game convention in Germany...if there is any although Matt already told that there will be no announcement from Nintendo..but there may be surprises right?...better stop myself from typing before i make myself looks stupid..

i suspect many ppl hate FF9 because it's very cartoonish...

i wonder how princess zelda will look like in bikini....

Eagerly-awaited Gamecube title The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess will mark the end of an era for the hit series, according to a transcript of a recent radio interview with Shigeru Miyamoto.

"This will be, without a doubt, the last Zelda game as you know it in its present form," Miyamoto is quoted as saying.

He declined to reveal any more details as to how the series will be reborn, but did go on to assure fans that Twilight Princess will be absolutely aces: "Our goal was to make the best Zelda game ever. The most rich, satisfying and [melancholic].

"I worked on it personally, moreso than Wind Waker. I haven't invested as much into any game as I have this one," Miyamoto said.

"We've really improved it in just a few months. Everything's coming together, much quicker. We may have some last minute ideas," he added.

And it's not just Zelda who'll be getting a next-gen makeover - everyone's favourite Italian plumber is set to star in a new game that will "surprise many people," according to Shigsy.

"Mario is and always has been a concept title from his birth. We are always looking for new ways of playing with him, manipulating him, to create something new and unique. We're in the midst of preparing something special for his future, something never before seen.

"Give us the benefit of the doubt. I think we'll present you with a new way to have fun."

Miyamoto also revealed that Mario is getting a brand new sidekick, but kept firmly schtum on the details. However, he did confirm that Mario 128 is simply a working title for the forthcoming game.

"Of course we will rename it, obviously. That won't be the only surprise of next year though.

"Mario 128 played a large role in the Revolution's conception, much like Mario 64 in its time. But we won't just be focusing on Mario. We're working on some very impressive games which push interactivity to the max. Games of a new era," Miyamoto said.

"We will be revealing many details soon... While our gamers are sleeping, we're busy thinking up new ideas. But while they're playing, we're playing as well," he concluded.

Let's just hope they're not too knackered to finish Twilight Princess - the game was recently delayed until next year, with a Nintendo bigwig saying it won't appear until April at the earliest. Roll on 2006...
