The More I Think about this the more it makes sense. It’s only short, because I’m off out for the day.

Nintendo Will release Zelda and Mario 128 on the next console; The Revolution.

Well, Nothing about Mario 128 has been unveiled, not even one measly screenshot – and the Moto man (can’t spell his name) doesn’t know which console to release it on. To me this is Nintendo’s way of telling us that this game will not come out for cube. So I can almost feel it in my bones that this title will be a release title for the new console. Wouldn’t that be great? It is the best move they could make.

Now, The wonderful Zelda. All we have seen is a small clip of what looks to be like a FMV. And they tell us its still in the early stages of development – so I don’t think they will be releasing this for the cube either, they’d be stupid to release this on the Cube towards the latter end when the Wave of the Next Gen Consoles in upon us. So I am also thinking that this could be a possible release title. Mario and Zelda as release titles could win a lot of buyers.

Also, it seems strange why Paper Mario has disappeared off the release list – but that’s as maybe.

Now, How would Nintendo break this horrible news to the Nintendo Fans? Simple – reduce all the games, and the future releases too. Metroid Prime Echoes? 20 quid. Donkey Konga 20 quid. As a gesture of good will have course. When I thought this through I checked Cube-Europe… and this is the honest truth. I came across this…

Which I can safely say backs up my statement.

So that’s my theory, a theory that makes more and more sense the more I think about it, and the morse i think about it the more i think Nintendo would be stupid not to make this move. But just think, Zelda and Mario on the same day for the new console – that would be fantastic. And considering the fact that most young kids are only allowed one console…
Well I’ll leave you to make your own conclusion.

What’s your view on all of this?

Of course GTA 5 appeals to children. It has guns, blood and stealing cars. When I was nine or ten, I wouldnt have wanted a game with anything less, and there's always older siblings to get it for you.

I just had a look at that site and saw something that's rather promising:

Square/Enix developing atleast four titles for the DS and...

SAMMY!

Although I still don't really know what they've done in the past, I am aware of their lack of interest in Nintendo...yet they're developing a game for the DS.

If they already have a game or games out on current Nintendo systems, then I withdraw my intrigue, but I was suprised to see them on the list.

I think Ninty's last word was that they weren't sure what platform(s) were getting the game.. although N5/Revolution is of course the most likely. I can't see the next big Mario platformer consigned to just a handheld, although I could see a DS version being made as well in the future..

OK.
Hang on, you're all calling the N5, the revolution. I'm still calling it the N5, because that is teh single gayest console name i've ever heard.

Ninty confirmed that they were not releasing Mario 128 on the Gamecube, they're releasing it on the N5, you're right about taht, but they have confirmed it anyway, so it's a stupid theorY
Zelda though, it's comign out on the Gamecube next year I beleive, in spring.

There's no SpaceWorld again this year - confirmed. However NoJ will be taking the DS on tour throughout the land to show off, so presumbably the final design will be on show there.
