Thanks for the most dull conference ever, Nintendo.

No my attitude is...

"It doesn't really matter"...

It wasn't any good. A bit of a waste of time actually. I'm sure they could have shown that at any games show and it would have been a minor showing.

But I don't actually mind. Because I wasn't really expecting anything.

Nice to see Geist, Zelda and Pokemon XD.

Yeah, maaaan. Nintendo are deep, maaan.

Deep down, Nintendo are red, man
Slit, and glance at the matrix
of wonder, life, heart and soul
Running away a crimson era
eternal spirits broken, drained
Shigeru cuts deep,
no mark remains,
it heals itself,
Nintendo veins.

I like to call that one "Reggie's Core".

Nintendo disappointed us. It's easy to grasp, Dringo. They're presentation was rubbish. The future for the gamecube look bleak past Zelda, and we have no idea about the future with Revolution. It doesn't fill me with hope.


Oh and a Nintendophile is somone who loes Nintendo, not the other way around

Yeah because that doesn't take 5 minutes.

Honestly, a Nintendo article I mock up in 5 minutes. And the only reason they seem long is because I repeat myself a lot and have short very very short paragraphs.

Like that tiny E3 one. Took me exactly 4 minutes.

You know I left this forum last month because when I wrote something people would say "here comes the fanboy" and when they didn't they said "where's the traditional Dringo articles?".

I don't like this forum. I don't like any forums. They're all filled with paranoid Nintendophiles. I come here to discuss news articles.

I no longer care for Nintendo's marketing ploys. I know why they don't push big because their money comes from their investments into other companies.

I don't really care for games. I don't have time to play them, I haven't bought a DS and I have sold many games lately.

I saw the new Zelda trailer, the new revolution design and a few other news snippets. Thought to myself "Oh that's cool, lets discuss it on the forum" and there are posts about how crap Nintendo are everywhere. All because they didn't show everything you wanted.

And I don't really know what to say.

I re-bought my Gamecube, have sold many gamecube games lately.

I mostly play the X-box lately. Simply because I don't have time for the little piffy Nintendo ones I have to play... or the fact that MEtroid Prime 2 requires too much effort.
