Ah yeah, SF2. I heard it was cancelled primairly because it sucked, though, so perhaps it's not such a loss.


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...

They do, but few arcades actually exist in and of themselves anymore. Most arcade game machines you see in theatres and restaurants, or ammusment parks and malls. Rarely will there ever be an arcade as a stand-alone business. They just can't compete with the consoles and handhelds...

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.

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).

Episode I - Manga Comic.
Time
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.
