GreenMonkey Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 http://mozlapunk.web-log.nl/log/2574674 There's some cracked out rumors going around about the Nintendo Revolution that Nintendo is playing games with a guerilla hint campaign (pretty popular these days, eh? Ilovebees anyone? I didn't post it in the main Nintendo Revolution thread 'cause this could all just be B.S. Interesting read though. The author and a bunch of people are talking about the weird occurances (like the crazy helmet video from IGN). Interestingly, when you go to http://www.nintendoon.com it redirects to the cube.ign.com link to the revolution mockup is a fake story... http://cube.ign.com/articles/613/613578p1.html But IGN doesn't say why it is fake...? They say "it is not real" but don't state any reason why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogbert Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 The video is fake because the guy who made it, who also made the cool 3D Mario video from a while back, came out & said so. I've seen this conspiracy thread on GamingAge, and I think it's a load of bollocks to be honest. There's not going to be a big Nintendo announcement tomorrow or Friday because it's just not the way things are done. They've had their press conference, they've revealed what they want to reveal for E3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMonkey Posted May 19, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Hehe These guys have a better and more coherent page going on it... http://nintendonow.com/index.php?categoryid=27&m_articles_start=&m_articles_articleid=2635&com_action=displaycomments#comments And here, about the quote taken straight from nintendo.com: http://nintendonow.com/index.php?categoryid=26&m_articles_articleid=2646 ""Word has it a secret alcove can be found deeper within the creature which houses the precious Nintendo Revolution. But gaining access to the Shangri-la of tomorrow?s video game generation is to remain an electronic dream."" Obviously some sort of game is being played by someone.

ChoiceStriker Posted May 19, 2005 Report Share Posted May 19, 2005 Wow, this is interesting. I kind of doubt anything will come of it, but today's supposedly the day, right? I'd love to see Nintendo drop a bombshell... but I expect nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMonkey Posted May 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2005 I don't expect anything either, and I suspect 75% of it is just silliness. But there are bits and pieces that interest me, and it's amusing to see the Nintendo fanboys going all whacko on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
