Now onto Gamecube

Animal Crossing
Luigi's Mansion
Mario Party 4
Mario Party 7
Resident Evil 4

Resident Evil
Sonic Mega Collection
Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness
Resident Evil Zero
Super Mario Strikers
Pokémon Colosseum
Star Fox Adventures
Mario Party 6
Paper Mario
Pikmin

Hmm...you're right. Nintendo needs to stop using Mario, Metroid, Zelda, and all their huge game series and just come up with some new ones like Microsoft. 🙄

first of all, mario parties 1-10 are basically the same, with minor updates, it doesn't equal up to be a new game altogether. I don't find anything amazing about Nintendo's game library, its just mario, mario mario over and over and over. and arcade compilations/anthology games don't count. anyways....XBOX360 IS ELITE, PS3 is 2nd place. that is all.

AND i find it funny that, gamecube LOST the last console wars, it wasn't even worth mentioning, it was all about PS2 vs. XBOX

Why even bring this in here. You're basically looking for trouble.

It's off topic and it has been said more than once already to keep this thread on topic.

Carry on. doped

anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

k sorry InnerRise, and whomever i offended

anyways!, Sonic vs Mario, now that is classic!!

360 is elite? PS3 is 2nd? I'd like to see you site your sources. The 360 has been out since '05 and has managed to sell 10 million units. The Wii has been out since '06 (incase you can't do math, which I doubt you can, that's a year's difference) and it managed to sell 6 million consoles (plus Wii sales have more then doubles PS3).

Face it, Microsoft will be second, Nintendo is on top.

Nah, no release date has been confirmed. All it said about a release date is fall 2007. Hmm...you know the characters will have to be "drained" of their powers for a lot of the events. I mean come on, the 100 meter race. Sonic would pwn everyone unless they zapped him of some of his speed.

and Mario would win the hammer toss XD!

ESB, Silverstein, please, leave it. If you want to argue console wars, do so in PMs.

Back on topic, Peach would win the long jump, unless her parasol was confiscated.

nah she can do that floaty thing...then again, tails can fly..would that be allowed?

Knuckles can glide as well, come to think of it.

yea, plus robotnik *cough*cough*cough* eggman has his flying thingy

Sonic can't swim so...yeah.

yep xbox360 owns, not just with the FPS. personally, i dont take PC's seriously when it comes to gaming, its just too expensive to be able to play games, you need a high-end computer. I haven't seen anyone at school w/ a wii besides 2 people, so i dont know where you're getting your statistics from. 🙄

Yea the 360 "owns"...if its not being repared by Microsoft for the umpteenth time. I'll say 360 is a good system once Microsoft starts making systems that WORK on a regular basis, until then it hardly "owns" anything except the Microsoft tech support who constantly have to repair them. And where am I getting statistics from? Go check IGN. Wii has been outselling both PS3 AND 360 on a month to month basis in 2007, troll.

Even with Peach's Umbrella, she's not particularly good enough a jumper to get enough air(high enough) for it to be of much use.

Long Jumping Contestants stay relatively close to the ground....unless this game isn't meant to be realistic in all of its events if any.

Mario has a good long jump (plus triple jump). Not to mention Knuckles' gliding ability and Sonic's homing attacking.

I doubt they'd allow them to use any of their powers in these events anyway, such as Gliding and Triple Jumps and Floating Umbrellas.

Did they allow any of that in the Mario Party Games? I don't know. Never played any.

I believe each character will do as good as the human person controlling it.

Maybe some will be a little faster or stronger or whatever, but nothing to the extreme.

im wondering if the "events" that they do are even going to be based on real Olympic events. Maybe nintendo is creating their own?

The game is set to take place at the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing, and will feature locations based on the official venues for sporting events during the Games.

Mario and team FTW!!!
