I just watched the live stream of Nintendo's press conference. They announced ONE new real game, that being the highly predictable Animal Crossing for Wii (coming with a microphone, "Wii Speak"). Other than that, casual shit as far as the eye can see. Wii Sports Resort bundled with the WIi Motion Plus); a Wii balance board snowboarding game; Wii Music, where you randomly press buttons or waggle around to make music play, GTA CHina Town for DS, which was brielfy mentioned and then ignored again; a Star Wars Clone Wars (the cartoon) comnversion, another Raving Rabbids game, a CoD and Pokémon Rangers 2.

That's it, I'm getting a PS3 this Christmas. Fuck you, post-Wii Nintendo. Fuck you.

They may be dead, but that doesn't mean people suddenly don't play them anymore. I still find myself going back to play the Pokemons and DWMs on the GBC, and I still have a bucket of GBA games I need to finish playing.

And I still think Asaph has a much better point than the one you're trying to make. People new to video games in those respective generations did play the GBC and GBA.

.............Ok, you have a point there. I'm still playing my Pokemon games for the GBA, and I wish I had a Gameboy Color so I can play the original Mario Tennis and Mario Golf. I lost the GBC and both of my copies of the game. But still, gta back then wasn't a big deal. I think what I'm trying to say is, is that gta today is too graphic compared to what it was back then.

You do know the GBA can play GB and GBC games, don't you?
EDIT: Oh, I overlooked that you said you lost the games as well, sorry.

I forgot about that.

Yeah, I was just about to beat the games when I lost them in my mom's ex-boyfriend's truck.
I was so upset.
