Pilfered this post from the ol' Edge forums.

****
http://www.cubenation.com has got lots of info from the recent Nintendo show in France. They're a very reliable site and have got stuff early before. For instance, they confirmed the black GBA for Europe a week before it was announced and always get various release dates early...

- Animal Leader coming to Europe in 2003, probably America as well.
- Animal Crossing coming to Europe in Q3 2003 (A nightmare to translate)
- Metroid Prime coming in Europe out on January the 10th 2003

- Nintendo will be holding The Nintendo Show 2002 in London on August the 29h or September the 3rd

- GameCube bundle with Mario Sunshine and memory card 59 will be out before Christmas in Europe.

- Star Fox Adventures is completed, it will be 80 hours long and will come on TWO disks.

I expect Starfox Adventures will be stacked full of little secrets and stuff. The proper game will probably take about 40 hours, which is still no bad thing he way Nintendo's working at the moment.

How long?
80 hours?

Who said that?

If that's true, then DROOL! That game already looks almightily sweet as it is, but longetivity of that calibre? Blimey.

Good job I've got a job, then, eh? I'll be getting it on the day :-)

80 hours long eh.... excellent!
I just hope it is true like the other stuff has been. :)

How does that work out???
Could it be 60 hours as an RPG on foot, and another 20 hours of space-blasting madness - Lylat Wars-style??

Either way, I can't wait!
I'd better make sure i've finnished off all my N64 RPG's by then then!

And i've decided that Die Hard; Vendetta will be the next FPS I get, following on from the lacking Agent Under Fire.
And then Turok Evolution.
All after Mario Sunshine! :D
