Title: New and More Mysterious Nintendo Registrations
Post by: Hope(N Forever) on June 02, 2004, 03:37:38 AM
IGN has revealled lately that Nintendo Co., Ltd. has made several new registrations of mysterious trademarks again...



And this time, these registrations are more mysterious than the ones made before...

In fact, one of these registrations is Super Mario-themed, and you'll be very much surprised to know it how-themed-in-what-sense!!

I am a pure Super Mario lover!!

...and in no point in the future will he ever be abandonded by me!

I will even drawn the best Super Mario comics ever to exist!!

Gamecube? Camera? Crazy person's face? Sounds like the Stage Debut project has finally come to a head as I suspected.

Excellent. Ever since I saw the demos of Stage Debut, I was going nuts over them. Every gamer would want that game. It's like that Eye-Toy Camera PS2 has, except in Stage Debut, you can see yourself interact with video game characters! Let's hope it is Stage Debut...

Summary:  Nintendo has shown Stage Debut at E3 for the past few years.  In it, you could transfer your face onto characters in the game, and seemed somehow tied to GBA.  The Stage Debut crate was shipped to E3 this year.  However, David claims that Stage Debut was not shown at E3 this year.  Prior to E3, Nintendo said they were going to show their new Gamecube peripheral, but they did not.  Now they say they will show it soon.  They've trademarked a Gamecube camera peripheral.  Too many coincidences.

If this is true, this isn't exactly the groundbreaking peripheral I'd hoped for.  1.  Eyetoy: it's been out for a year and shows you on screen in real time (for the game I've played).  They could have it do face mapping or anything else if they wanted.  2.  Game Boy Camera: this is quite old and allowed you to map your face onto Game Boy game characters.  3. Somebody's created a way to face map onto the N64 Goldeneye!  Maybe they didn't show it at E3 because their other announcements were so much better.  Also, I hope this peripheral doesn't die after a token 3 games like most of their other previous alternate control scheme ideas.  Or maybe they've got something better in store.  The problem is, they're kind of limited without a hard drive...

I think Nintendo's got something up their sleeve... I'd like to see what they're planning on doing...

It has been announced that Mario Party 6 isn't going to require the use of a controller.  I bet it has something to do with this...

Whoa! And people said Mario Party was dying horribly? Well, thank heavens. I don't mind the Mario Parties, and thankfully, it appears people won't be able to say it's the same game due to this interesting little tidbit.

Italicized game titles look so weird . . .

Having no signature is like living in a box on the highway.

That article doesn't say anything of the sort.  Did you even read past the headline?

I like his use of the word "are."

Europeans do that with companies. For example, watch the opening cutscene of Perfect Dark. "Datadyne are..."
