Kola has sent us a list of quotes which Nintendo Chairman, Howard Lincoln, has said in the past few months. They may reveal some info about the 'Dolphin' and give you some neat ideas. Check them out along with my replies. Not only will the hardware be extremely powerful, it will not be expensive and software will also be competitively priced." Competitively priced? Is he saying the 'Dolphin' only cost about $99 or what? Nowadays, that would be a very competitive price! "Dr. Yen has assembled at ArtX one of the best teams of 3D graphics engineers on the planet." What do you mean 'ONE of the best'? Shouldn't Nintendo be the BEST!? "We are absolutely confident that Dolphin's graphics will equal or exceed anything our friends at Sony can come up with for Playstation 2." Equalling the Playstation 2 graphics may not be a good thing since they could suck. Lets just exceed them! "... a CPU that's second to none. The most powerful processor of any current or planned home videogame system." Okay, that sounds good...Prove it! "Only IBM has the technology to manufacture chips using copper technology. Nobody else in the world can do what IBM can do and, quite frankly, anything else in simply not state-of-the-art technology." Well, Is that a fact that NO other system will have chips using this Copper Technology? "The Dolphin software medium will not only be very inexpensive and quick to manufacture it will also be counterfeit proof." Yeah...And...? How? Explain yourself! "Dolphin's Technology will be intergrated into various Matsushita and Panasonic-branded DVD consumer electronic products, enabling consumers to play movies and music as well as Dolphin games published by Nintendo and their third party publishers." I think I remember hearing about that option being taken out...Did I hear that? That's Nintendo for ya, always doing something to disappoint you. At least they make up for it in another way. "We've lifted the curtain a little on Dolphin but we're not going to lift all the way... There are more technological surprises to come." Well open the curtains all the way! You want to get people interested in the 'Dolphin' don't you? Or is this your nice way of saying you have no more surprises. Remember, waiting only makes people angry and they may lose interest! Thanks to Kola for all the Quotes! |
