They are releasing games quicker... although if they miss a holiday season they may delay it till another holiday season... like Metroid Prime missed christmas so delayed till Easter to capitalise on the Easter market. What did they do for those 4 months? Why they improved the game. PROOF that Nintendo were being thoughtful.

Ditto with the fast release of Final Fantasy.

Yup, and as I was saying the other day, I don't see how Nintendo can ignore Europe like they do. Big games on any format sell about twice as much as they do in Japan, and the sales totals over here are never far off the US sales.

How Nintendo can be so blind and fail to see that releasing games in Europe a little earlier is going to do lots for them baffles me.

Comments on success in Europe, and a lot of reiteration of what we've said on here.

Sorry to dampen your spirits lads...

Which would be Godly.

Although will they have multiplayer Grand Prix's in the game, because they didn't last time, which was quite bendy.

It'd be good if there was even the option for a four-player Grand Prix, as that would still rule.

Probably. Maybe more though... think about it, how many F-Zero racers are on the track. 28 or 32 I think. If you were very rich and ha d a lot of space maybe you could have an all human player race?
