"Nintendo's conference was like a retirement home for classic game developers as Toru Iwatani, the brains behind Pac-Man, played on-stage against Mario wunderkind, Shigeru Miyamoto, who is currently working on an all-new Pac-Man title.
Refreshingly self-critical, the assembled masses were told of the mistakes the big N made with marketing the GameCube, and the difficulty the traditionally family-orientated company was having in appealing to modern, gore-obsessed players.
But their president, Satoru Iwata, in a nod to the Grand Theft Auto series, assured Nintendo-philes: "You won't see Mario shoot a hooker".
And while we were assured the GameCube had a rosy future, its successor is already officially in development."

Besides, it's been over a decade since I sat in musty halls plowing through plu-perfect subjunctive forms of Latin and, quite frankly, I have no desire to revisit that time.
Still glad I chose it over German.
It's called age, you cna't help it or change it.
Maybe when have grown up and started 'big boys school' you will understand.
So what's the point?

Much as I'd like to squat down in this tiny little creche of yours and talk gamo-babble, I'm afraid I have work to do, seeing as I'm an adult. However, if you want to find some evidence for the claims you've made about console releases (PS3 officially announced before PS2? Okay) then feel free to do so, Goatboy will supervise you in the meantime.
Play nice.
