I belive they cancelled it so it wouldn't take attention off N64. It was 95% completed, only a few bugs were still left, but the game was there. I've played a debuged version which was "completed" by fans. The game is quite weird, and far from what you would expect from a regular SNES game, sometimes it felt there was something missing... It was quite challenging and fun though, but a bit repetitive. It felt weird playing it, it was like playing a game on an alternate reality in which it was released...

My fake british accent is more similar to what you'd hear on the BBC. I'm not able to say with an english accent some words. I can do steriotype "peter sellers-esque" indian accent farily well, british and irish not so well, and do a bad impression of an australian one. I can recognize pretty much all the major accents though.

And the Revolution will likely steal away some of the uniqueness arcades have left.

I belive the Revolution might simulate the arcade experience of some arcades, such as Time Crisis 2 (my second favorite arcade machine, after "The SImpsons"), but in no way would simulate stuff like Sonic Blastman's original arcade, Daytona USA original arcade, and the Dance Dance Revolution machines.

Uh... perhaps a language barrier problem here? I meant those arcade machines with games you insert coins into, and play those? Well, those are still popular here (not as much as in Japan, but). I didn't know those didn't exist in the US anylonger.

Gaffer, for that to work, Palpatine would not name him Vader on screen. We would only learn that Vader is Anakin on TESB. Now that I think about it, it could work, if one watched the movie from 1 to 6, and knew nothing about it beforehand.

That is actually the name of the unofficial rom made from a almost completed translation prototype cart that leaked out of nintendo. When they were almost done with the translation, and even making prototype carts for promos, Nintendo of America pulled the plug on the game released for no declared reason (kinda like Star Fox 2, which also exists in an unofficial way).

You mean, when he gets the name Vader, or when he gets the suit? Both were bad, but it could've been worse. I would've like to see the suited Vader with at least 15 minutes of screen time though, along with a few lines by Tarkin.

Well, yes, of course, there are the games I don't have.

You mean, the original Earthbound? "Mother"? Or Mother 2 (which is Earthbound 1)? I belive the first one is unavailable in the US. Would be cool if they officially released that one in english.

OK so I'll play those in an emulator. I got the games, so there's nothing they can do. I won't re-pay for those.

Manga is generally released in a mirrored way over there? Over here, most comics are right to left, because of purists and as a commercial gimmick, sort of like"ohh, look, it's opposite" - but mostly to keep faithful to the original, sometimes the contract made with the japanese publisher asks for it to be published this way (when I grab some "ocidental" comic book I sometimes forget about it and look at the last page first).

What *I'd* like to know is, will one be able to play their ROMs on this new console? Perhaps someone will write a program where you can burn a CD or DVD of your ROMs and use the emulation provided on the Revolution to play them.

That would be cool. But I'm sure nintendo will add tags or something to make sure that only their ROMs are compatible with their console.

I think the Revolution should have a slot for NES (72 and 60 pins), SNES, and N64, and also accept GameCube discs.

Couple of weeks ago, I saw in the shelfs of a bookstore a book that teached philosofy using Star Wars. I considered briefly buying it, but then I remember my "don't buy any crap you see" policy and decided not to.

Acording to a deleted scene in Pulp Fiction, there are "Beatles people", and "Elvis people". I'm more of a Beatles person, I think they are musically superior, and I'm more into that kind of music, pre-progressive late 60s psychedelia, although I do like Elvis versions to "Viva Las Vegas", "Love me Tender", "My Way", "Can't Help Falling in Love", and "A little less conversation - remix"

This "Snakes on a Plane" sound like an idea for a bad comedy sketch! And is that the real title? "Snakes on a Plane"? And come on, that CAN'T be the real plot for that movie: "On board a flight over the Pacific Ocean, an assassin, bent on killing a passenger who's a witness in protective custody, let loose a crate full of deadly snakes". What the HELL?!

Also, "Afrosamurai". Oh, yes, Sam L Jackson is going real serious into his acting carreer... All I can expect now is for him to abandon acting and focus on being a pupeteer (little "being john malkovitch" joke here).
