Mario and Zelda on PS2 as strange as that sounds their could be more truth in it than you think.

Nintendo have been told by some heavyweight financial advisers that they should develop software for other platforms or face financial ruin.

It would appear that the poor GC sales are starting to bite with developers getting increasingly worried about the GC continued poor performance and the lack of software sold because of this.

Producing for Xbox and inparticular PS2 would add a much bigger user base up instead of the limited one they have now makes sense to me. If Nintendo was able to make more money from software they might be able to produce more quality titles rather than the tripe they do at the moment, hell it might even help Nintendo to sell more GC.

Right, chop TS up. But (for educational purposes), who is going to be brave enough to break open the head like an Easter egg. We need to do this, in order to find how what makes him "tick". I mean, don't expect to find the brain in the usual place, if at all. But some thing keeps the heart pumping blood, so there must be some thing in there some where.

No, that can't be. How would you know that my screen was not fully upto date when I posted? Only if u did know (which u couldn't), would I believe for a moment that your remark was "just taking the michael" as you put it. No, I am afraid what we have here is a clear case of some one losing it. You will have to do better than that.

He doesn't suffer fools gladly. Not that you're a fool, of course.

Or you could lighten up and realise that what initially looks like me "snapping" is just me taking the michael out of you in a mild, friendly but not at all man love sort of way.

IB snaps quick. My net connection was running really slow then for a while. I couldn't see the question IB had posted - so I posted back. Then I noticed the "progress bar" was limping along at a snails pace, so I would go back on and type in that I found it, and the reason why I couldn't see previously was the connection speed. But IB had got there first. Why go over the top like that? We have both been on this forum for a long enough, and while we often don't agree, it's not my character to miss some thing like that. And yet, you jump in at the deep end.

Take your right foot of the pedal mate, you will end up in the ditch or having a heart attack!
