Cel Shading Zelda is now a certainty. I like the look, because it removes the harshness of polygons. One thing about polygons that I have never liked are the blank, zombie like movements and stares that they give. With Cel-Shading that is no longer true. The characters once again have a life that hasn't existed since the 2D era. I am looking forward to this more and more every day.
I agree with many that the cel-shading method doesn't look that good, but I've always loved the Zelda series. Despite the looks, I think I'll give it a chance before I ridicule it.

Metroid becoming an fps sounds really bad to me too. But I am going to have to put my trust into Nintendo. We just have to remember the fps games in the past that have been good, and remember that this is an entirely new take on the genre. It is a first person action adventure. Time will tell how it turns out.
IMHO, it looks great. Ever since the first Metroid, I've been hooked on the series. Turning it into a FPS just adds to the gameplay variation.
 
next month for the first time since many many years there will be a game released for a nintendo console that a big amount of people are looking forward to thats NOT produced by Nintendo themself: Resident Evil... i personally dont care a bit, but i wonder if it will be the first step to establish something from nintendo as a serious console again...
however, the future for the GC looks darker and darker...
has anyone seen those Mario Sunshine pics?
HELL, whats going on? SERIOUSLY, this game looks like it could be easily be ported to the N64, without having to change a thing...
so here i am: i HATE the new metroid, i dont care about the new zelda (yet?), i dont like the new mario... whats left of big N?
well, at least for me, not much at the moment...
 
Yeah, I plan to buy the new Resident Evil.

But Carmofin, I don't think it's a good idea to judge games before they are released. Just give them a chance. Think about it. How bad can the games be? What's the worst Nintendo game ever? Super Mario World 2?

IGN has repeatedly stated their doubts about Metroid Prime. Following their last demonstration, they changed those ideas dramatically. They have nothing but praise for it now.

Zelda, well, have faith. I am sure that it will be a gamecube great.
 
They all suck considering:

1) XBOX is a PC console meaning that it will be outdated quickly from its new games. Also XBOX 2 is in the making which proves my theory that it was a whole scam to make people buy it then bring out the bigger better system. (Bill Gates will pay...)

2) Playstation 2 is not far off in advancement from Dreamcast which is a downer since PS2 came out way later than DC.

3) Nintendo will always make kiddy games for non-kiddy people (Well, most of them...). But you gotta give props the their controllers...DAMN!!!

- I apologize to the people that I have offended about the GC. It was just sad to see some of the games turn so...different from what I expected (Zelda...)..

Once again, I am sorry...BUT for the PS2, that fact is TRUE so get over it. If you want proof, read the specs of the systems, you will see there is very little difference...
 
Where in the hell did this thread come from?
OK maybe you think that all the three consoles suck, too bad. For you I'll edit the question: Which console do you think sux the least?
 
OMFG! Of all the threads I thought I would never see again. *sigh* Ah well, the other one was revived too.

Anyways, I would hardly call SSBM, Fire Emblem, Earthbound, Mario RPG, Mario, Metroid, or Zelda shitty games. In fact, Metroid Prime won game of the show at E3 this year according to many respected publications. I would just have to say that you have been smoking something. Either that or you simply couldn't find anything wrong with the GameCube, and wanted to hate it anyway. hehe.
 
I would like to request to members like Dorkan to think before posting. The reason you stated for XBOX is quite logical, the reason you stated for PS2 is stupid and the one you posted for GC is PATHETIC!

Surely the PS2 is not a very high on the technical side. I know its specs quite well. But we are talking about the games available for it.

I never looked at the PS1 specs, never looked at DC specs. Why should I? I don't buy systems based on specs, I buy them cause of the games available for'em.

Take a look at Resident Evil, Eternal Darkness, and Metroid Prime instead!

You mean it rocks because of it tech specs?
You shouldn't believe everything Sony tells you, eg. the 66 million polygones per second (some resources even talk of 80 million) are without any texturing or effects and only achieved using triangles with equally sized edges.
The figures for Dreamcast and Gamecube (around 3 million and 12 million polygones per second) are what those systems can achive in game, while the PS2 will most likely fall in the middle of those two.
BTW, Sony also claims that the PS3 will be a thousand times more powerful than the PS2! Do you really believe that?
I think they also said that the PS2 will be 300 times more powerful than the PSX, which is rubbish as well.

Don't get me wrong, I have a PS2 myself (although not with many games, because there simply aren't that many high-quality ones), but Sony certainly is the king of marketing hype. So only judge what you can see for yourself and not what Sony tells you.
 
I thought it was hilarious when Nintendo came in boasting about their 6 million poly count, when Sony and MS were both boasting about their impossibly high specs. I just have a problem with morons who believe those specs.
