Subject: [N64] GB Pak Ready for Dark / News from Ultra Game Players


Nintendo's Ken Lobb confirms that the
GB Pak will be available when PD is
out.

Speculation regarding the release of
Nintendo's GB Pak has run rampant ever
since Pokemon Stadium -- the game it
was scheduled to ship with -- got pushed
back to next year. With Rare's Mature-rated
GB Pak compatible Perfect Dark scheduled
for release this December, the question on
everyone's mind has been, when will the GB
Pak be available?

Nintendo's Ken Lobb answered the question
once and for all last week via Nintendo's
online Camp Hyrule update. The outspoken
Nintendo man commented, "The GB Pak will
be available when Perfect Dark's out." By
Nintendo release lists, that means December.

Using the GB Pak, Perfect Dark owners will
be able to take photos of themselves (and
others) and map the images onto their
character's face in the game. The
deathmatching possibilities are delicious.

Hey, I got a new video from Nintendo today. Same old cornball narrator and
stuff, but it also has extensive footage of DK64 and JFG, plus a couple of
short shots of various other games at the end. Pretty sweet.

From the computer entertainment release newsgroup...

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--August 24, 1999--

   Feature Film Quality Animated Spots Created
                Using Actual Sega Dreamcast Hardware

    Sega(R) of America today revealed the launch advertising campaign
for the much-anticipated launch of Sega Dreamcast(TM), the
superconsole with a built-in 56K modem that will bring the
most-advanced and realistic video gameplay ever developed to consumers
at its retail launch on September 9, 1999. The campaign was created by
Pacific Data Images, the creators of the award-winning animated
feature film, Antz, under the direction of Foote, Cone & Belding, San
Francisco. Utilizing models and assets straight from the Sega
Dreamcast hardware and software, the spots feature Sega's beloved
mascot Sonic the Hedgehog(TM), more than forty 1st and 3rd party game
characters and live-action and animated appearances by a range of NFL
and NBA stars including Gary Payton, Penny Hardaway, Brian Grant,
Allen Iverson and Randy Moss.

Part of a $100 million launch marketing blitz, the campaign will
break on August 30 and will air on more than nine networks. Sega
collaborated with PDI to create two-square-miles of fully animated 3-D
environments that are the backdrop for each of the five executions,
which feature live-action integration of digital game characters and
NBA and NFL stars.

"Sega Dreamcast completely immerses players in a world that looks
and feels so authentic, it blurs the lines between reality and game
play and we wanted to replicate that breakthrough experience in our
television advertising," said Peter Moore, senior vice president, Sega
of America. "No other videogame console could take this bold approach
because never before has there been a system with the technical
capability to produce graphics of such a quality that they could be
the focus of an entire 60-second broadcast spot."

"These spots are a true testament to the awesome quality of the
Sega Dreamcast system -- what viewers see in these television ads is
what they'll see when playing Sega Dreamcast," continued Moore.

Titled "In the Box," the series is the final phase of broadcast
advertising for the Sega Dreamcast launch following a trio of
15-second teaser spots and the action-packed 60-second mini-movie
"Apocalypse," which began airing nationwide as part of a teaser
campaign earlier this summer. "In the Box" continues Sega's
positioning of the "It's Thinking" tag line which refers to the
technology engine inside Sega Dreamcast that can respond to and
outsmart its human opponents. Each of the "In The Box" ads take
viewers into the Sega Dreamcast world where characters from games live
when they are not playing against their human opponents. In the
humorous spots, viewers see Sega Dreamcast game characters work out,
eat dinner, attend rave parties and advise one another on how to beat
their human competition. Spots include:


- -- "Opening Day:" Introduces the immense living and conspiring world
   inside the Sega Dreamcast console and features more than 40 game
   characters including an animated Brian Grant of the Portland
   Trailblazers.

- -- "Old Days:" Jim McMahon, former quarterback of the Chicago Bears,
   rants to Randy Moss of the Minnesota Vikings about what a privilege
   it is to be part of the Sega Dreamcast system versus when he
   appeared in Sega Genesis(TM) games in the `80s. In the background,
   more than 10 digital game characters and NFL stars are interacting
   at a Sega Dreamcast cantina.

- -- "Daydream:" Gary Payton of the Seattle Supersonics raps with
   Taka, a character from the well-known "Virtua Fighter"(TM) series
   and features Sonic the Hedgehog as a DJ mixing for more than 40
   other characters on the dance floor.

- -- "Sumo:" Allen Iverson of the Philadelphia 76ers seeks basketball
   playing advice from Taka of "Virtua Fighter3tb"(TM) and then
   applies it to his posting technique in "NBA 2K," a Sega Dreamcast
   basketball game, against "live" Penny Hardaway of the Orlando
   Magic, Juwan Howard of the Washington Wizards and Brian Grant of
   the Portland Trailblazers.

- -- "Drive In:" Jamal Anderson of the Atlanta Falcons interacts with
   more than 20 characters watching a movie of Sega Dreamcast game
   footage.


    The spots will rotate on nine different cable networks including
MTV, FOX, WB, UPN, ESPN, USA, World Wrestling Federation/20th
Century/Columbia syndication, ZDTV and The Box. On August 30, "Opening
Day" will air. "Old Days" and "Daydream" will air during the MTV Video
Music Awards on September 9th, along with a new 90-second version of
"Apocalypse." "Opening Day" will also be available for download as of
August 30th on www.sega.com.

Perfect Dark will get an 'M' rating? I thought it would get a 'T' like
Goldeneye.

Or it could mean that Perfect Dark will be delayed until March 2000.

Subject: [N64] Nintendo video

In case any of you don't get it, here's a short description:

    Nintendo has sent out another promotional video, as they are wont to do
before any major titles. This time the video features two of the three big
Rare games coming this holiday season, Jet Force Gemini and Donkey Kong 64.
Taking the form of a news program hosted by a guy named Steve who has a
tendency towards exaggerated facial expressions and breathless spewing of
Nintendo marketing hype, "Hot Newz 64" contained three short segments of Ask
Dan, of Nintendo Power Source fame, and of course the game footage. Roughly
three and a half minutes of Jet Force Gemini was shown, about half gameplay
and half cinema, including what appeared to be the intro cinematic inspired
by Star Wars Episode 1 and Star Trek. The gameplay footage consisted of
demos of the two shooting perspectives (running mode, lacking an aim,  and
targeting mode, wher you stand still and your character becomes transparent,
but you get an aiming cursor.). Many varied environments were shown off, as
well as quite a few huge insectoid bosses. The multiplayer modes also made
an appearance, in both 2 and 4 player variations. According to the narrator,
JFG features more than 2 hours of cinematic and 120 stages. The release date
they announced was October 13.
    The other major portion of the video consisted of Donkey Kong 64
footage. Lasting about three minutes, the video showed off the expansion
pack enhanced graphics, and the many stages, including several mine cart
levels, Diddy flying through some rings with a rocket pack on his back, as
well as a few boss battles, which seem to consist of you picking up an
explosive barrel in the middle of the stage and hurling it at the enormous
boss to damage him. Footage of all five characters (Donkey, Diddy, Tiny,
Lanky, and Chunky) was shown, and the narrator promised over 200 objectives
and 100 moves. Some of the mini-games were also on display, including a
fly-swatting game, barrel-blasting, and boat and car racing. A brief shot of
the beloved animal crates from the SNES games showed a 3D Enguarde the
Swordfish in an underwater level. The announced release date was November
24. Afterwards a commercial for the computer-generated movie "Donkey Kong
Country: Legend of the Crystal Coconut", a straight-to-video feature from
Paramount coming in November, was run.
    After the main portion of the video, short clips of other N64 titles
were displayed, interspersed with parts of Nintendo ads. These games were:
The New Tetris, Mario Golf, Starcraft 64, NBA Courtside 2, Pokemon Snap,
Duke Nukem: Zero Hour, Rayman 2, Gauntlet Legends, Armorines, World Driver
Championship, Shadowman, 40 Winks, Toy Story 2, NFL Blitz 2000, WWF
Attitude, Hybrid Heaven, Hydro Thunder, Nuclear Strike, and Re-Volt.

   I'm thinking about getting NFL Blitz 2000. I found last year's to be incredibly fun,
but was holding out for the 2k version with 4-player support. If not Blitz then it will
either be a cheap copy of Super Smash Bros. or I'll wait for JFG.
  On a different note, is anyone else besides me happy enough with their N64/PSX to not
purchase a DC? I still haven't beaten most of my games and the N64's fall/winter lineup
has a lot of games I'm consider buying. Even into 2000 there is pretty many games I'm
looking forward to (Super Smash Bros. 2, Zelda Gaiden, Excitebike, Perfect Dark, if it
gets delayed which I'm worried that it will and some more). And then hopefully by the
fall Dolphin will be out, although I'm not gonna be holding my breath. We all know how
Nintendo is with getting their systems out on time..

Dolphin will probably be out in fall 2000. In Japan. I bet it will be out in
America in 2001.

One thing that is keepin me busy right now is Baulder's Gate, what a
good game :)  There's so many different paths to take and the graphics
are FREEKING AWESOME!  And boy is it long, I mean, 5 CD's and about 140
or more hours of gameplay?!!?!  It will definately keep me busy for a
LOOOONNNGGGG time as well as beyond due to its emmense diversity.  Let
me just explain a few things about it for those of you who are clueless.

Baulder's gate is an RPG based entirely on a dungeons and dragons type
set up all in real-time.  You decide from 9 types of beliefs which type
of person you are, what your race is (elf, human, gnome, etc etc
etc........) what your specialty is (fighter, druid, mage (8 types)...)
To mix things up more there are multiclassed people and all your
attributes are taken into your hands as well (dexterity, charm etc.).
Your party has a reputation which you must uphold depending on your
belifs.  The whole game is non-linear and you can do WHATEVER you want.
Even kill a person who is crucial to your success.  The game has random
weather, ambushes, hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people to
interact with, LOTS of music, speech and the most realistic sounds
anywhere.  It even takes into effect how many people are in your group,
what type of clothing/armor you are wearing and makes according sounds
when you walk.  Why, just today my band of people in the game got mad at
each other and attacked each other because of their differing outlooks
on life.

In conclusion, I would just like to say that this game is another reason
why PC RPG's are still the best and I am a little too excited about this
game :)

That's exactly what I was thinking... it doesn't bode well for a December
release. I'm just hoping that the reason they didn't include it was because
it will be rated M or something.
