i bought issue number 5 of G-force magizine and it had a DVD video with footage of Mario Sunshine amongst other things on it but it was a normaly sized DVD and not a Gamecube disk, i have a PS2 so i could watch the DVD but just wounded how Gamecube owners can see it without a DVD player?
Do you guys have to fork out for a DVD player as well as the Gamecube?

I know for a fact that it will be remade graphically, though I'm not sure about other aspects.
I doubt it because for $20 well $19.95 it isn't going to be remade
Get the new NOM if you don't believe me.
sorry i had a little spelling lapse there
I bought a DVD player. From SR. It's great.
They are not being remade if you look at the Japanees capcom resi site you will see that only the visuals have been sharpened. Nothing improved or anything.

Juat look. Only Resident Evil Zero and Resident Evil 4 will ook like the new remake. Code Veronica looks very good as it is but i do not care about the graphics all i want is gora and horror

Fear not! It has been confirmed in NOM (along with screenshots for proof) that all other Resident Evils will be remade as the first one was.
Remember that these are early days people, and I'll bet as developers get more familiar with the GameCube, and push the boundaries, games as big as Resident Evil will come on one disc.

If Resi Evil 2 was to be a two disc game, then I'd be ver VERY surprised. However, it is likely that, instead of releasing Resi Evil 2 and 3 seperately at discount prices on release (they're ports after all), they might both be included together, which would most likely become a two disc set anyway.
When it comes to the memory capacity of N64 cartridges - being a circuit board inside a piece of plastic, it wouldn't be too difficult for a bigger capacity memory chip to be used instead of the normal 512MB memory chips.

thats a good point about double sided disks, i wounder if Nintendo have thought of that. Do you know what playable games will be on the 1st demo disk?
