"An internal hard drive, for massive storage of game information — a first in the console gaming industry (this means you don't need memory cards anymore!)"

Just a note, Mario Maniac,
The Sega CD actually saved game data internally on the system's RAM drive.  The X-Box will undoubtedly have much MORE space, but the concept itself is not a first.

I see somebody finally figured it out.
Oh well, it was still fun to watch everybody trying to make sense of yellow and blue and level 2...

Very nice, David, you had almost everybody going for nearly a week!

How amusing, all of you trying so futilely to find the secret page from David's poem.  I'm sure he's reading these posts, laughing at the numerous people who are still unable to see the "Reality ... within these lines."

...Nothing against anybody who's looking, by the way, it's just that I understood the poem's meaning immediately.

Yeah, that happens (I think) if you complete a time trial race without hitting any walls, then you retry the level.

Oh, there's definitely a message in that poem for those who search for the secret page, particularly for those more "persistant" searchers who would stop at nothing (such as pestering TMK staff in mailbags for information) to find the page...
A truly notable clue to anyone so... dedicated as that, in a way that David Dayton would like to have EVERYONE know.

Oh, weird, CeleTheRef.
I've been working on a Mario game that's bringing back the item/enemy throwing of SMB2 along with things from other Mario games.
It's far from finished, but I hope it'll be successful.

Marionut#1, complete 3D?
Are you programming this in straight C or something?  Such a game could have potential if you can pull it off...

Roy Koopa, are you still here?  I know it's been more than a month, but surely this story is worthy of a conclusion!

Wait, Chocobo, do you mean that you actually had each Mario form with its own movement, being controlled separately but simultaneously by the player?  Or did you have a single, always invisible player-controlled object and just set the forms (which should be no more than animations) to always follow it and match its direction/animation?

I didn't think anyone else here used The Games Factory or any of its relatives..

Alright, ? Block, It's got to be the "Boo" Buddies, Fishin' Boo, the Big "Boo" or Eeries.
Could you be a bit more specific?

Oh!  I've got one!
I'm feeling creative, so it's going to be more riddle-like:

With lethal treads for Mario heads this fiendish goomba mount,
But goomba shown by Mario's own 'pon fealty cannot count.

Heh heh... anybody have a guess?

I'm planning on making another one, but I haven't gotten very far in doing so yet.

Gaah!  You've both taken it the wrong way!

Marionut#1:  I didn't mean to insinuate that Bush had planned on any sort of terrorist retaliation; I was simply saying that Bush's tactics have similarities to his father's (no surprise there,) and other countries will naturally take a similar sort of mentality towards it.

Sonic:  I like to try and keep an impartial (though generally withdrawn) view when it comes to politicks.  My statement was meant only as a logical possibility of what might have been the situation.  I'm sure I could've gone without calling bush "oilman," but that's just the cynic in me.
Still, I concede how easily my remarks could have been viewed in ill light and seen as what they weren't (hence my disclaimer.)  So, in the interests of peacekeeping, I'll happily rescind anything that anyone might deem unjust and try to bite my toungue in the future..
