It was about 2 issues ago. But tell me, why would Game Informer report something like that if it WASN'T coming to America. Obviously you read it wrong as even Nintendo Power is saying the same thing.

DW

I will go get it, but they were discussing how losing Square Enix was a big blow to Sony and gain for Nintendo. Then they mentioned they were releasing games for the Wii and DS, but no release dates were set for America as of yet.

Is that your basis? Release dates? You do release that America doesn't get games made in Japan until much later. There is a !@#@-load of translation they have to do and it is completely normal for a SE game to come out many months in America compared to Japan. If both Game Informer and Nintendo Power talked about the games...they are coming to America eventually.

DW

I never said they weren't coming, I said that there was no release date for them.

Hahaha I meant to put Nintendogs in the first list. I just think these games are wierd that they're Nintendo games... I always though they weren't ('Cept Nintendogs, Zelda, and Mario. And Yoshi.)

DW

you don't play many games do you? I mean Metroid is a very big franchise for them as well.

This is still getting off the point even though MCR claimed to play "lodsa games" I want to know MCR's basis for their craptastic list?

Starfox - created by Miyamoto

Earthbound - Created by a second party company of nintendo (APE) along with Hal Laboratories

Metroid - created by the late great Gunpei Yoko

Nintendogs - created by Miyamoto

Kirby - Developed by HAL laboratories (also made mario party and other party titles, second party of Nintendo)

F-Zero - developed by nintendo EAD (a first party development sector of nintendo)

Ice Climbers - I'm pretty sure Miyamoto was also behind this
Edit: actually made by Kazuaki Morita, who was a main programmer for Super Mario Bros. and Legend of Zelda.

Game and Watch - created way way before the original game boy as the FIRST series of portable games, by Gunpei Yoko)

Well, it seems weird because of what we would traditionally associate (to a limited degree) what nintendo makes.

I guess another reason is because a lot of these series aren't well known if you're young.

But these games have the epitomous quirky flavor that nintendo is so well known for.

DW

I got a game and watch game and it was really fun. and I think even the young ones should still know Metroid, it is still very large...

Hi no Seijin

Which is why it never hurts to do a little bit of research before trying to sound smart about something.
