Now sporting over 100 hours of gameplay!  That's 40 hours added since the delay was announce to add new gameplay mechanics...

I wonder if they are releasing some wired version of the Revolution controller like they demoed at the Tokyo Games Summit using a modified Metroid Prime 2 build.  That could explain the "newly added game mechanics"...

Well, one can hope anyway...

Needless to say, the 'Cube is going out with a BANG!

Confirmed for 'Cube

When they announced the delay in August, they released new screen shots that were in something like 1024x768 or higher...these were posted on www.gamesarefun.com

what does that tell ya?

I was reading some comments about the whole HiDef issue on www.joystiq.com and someone said that they have yet to see DVD quality games in EDTV (720x480p)on even the Xbox so why the need to go to HiDef?  That was a good point.  If Rev...and Zelda running on Rev. can produces fluid animations with full anti-aliasing on a 480p screen to the point where round objects are actually round and I can't seen any polygons (no matter how good the texturing), I don't think anyone will complain about the resolution (or lack thereof).

If you read the source on Eurogamer.net, Nintendo didn't deny it, just said they never made an anouncement about anything so the NGC Magazine article was speculation.

You know, the more I think about it...since they demoed a wired version of the controller running on the Gamecube, maybe they will bundle that with LoZ:TP...  Just look at Mario Party 6 & 7 with the Mic and Donkey Konga  1 + 2 and Donkey Kong Jungle Beat...  So it wouldn't be the Revolution freehand controller, but a new GC wired controller...heck, it could even be a new Wavebird...

NGC Magazine stands by their statements saying a Nintendo exec. accidentally leaked the info to them.
