Sega Sammy posts loss, job cuts imminent {Joystiq}
May 14th 2008 2:31PM ¥52.47 billion (US $501 million) loss???
If SEGA didn't have it in the first place how can it be a loss??? If they first acquired it THEN someone took it you could call that a loss. Saying you lost something you never had seems a bit conceited to me.
Miyamoto: Ocarina of Time could have been in first-person perspective {Joystiq}
May 11th 2008 6:51PM I am a Zelda freak. I often ponder getting a Triforce tattoo on my hand, or, a little more extreme, a full Master Sword that runs the length of my spine. So I know it's practically suicide to already be anticipating THE NEXT Zelda on THE NEXT Nintendo "console."
I say "console" because the last "war" really changed how the major companies will play the game (pardon the pun) next time around, and what will be brought to the table probably wont be a console at all. The many who waited the long 2.5 years to hold their own copy of Twilight Princess know how torturous it was. All that hype over the Revolution, desperately searching for scraps of new info every day, weeding through all the speculation for real answers took its toll.
This video still brings tears to my eyes.

You know your life is pathetic when the happiest time you can remember was speeding home very early in the morning right after the Wii launch with that white box in the gift bag on the passenger seat.
I have enjoyed all the Zelda adventures and so I say to Iwata and Miyamoto, you know the fans are there and will accept what you produce as long as you remain true to Zelda ideal.
I think the next title should be "The Legend of Zelda - The Origin of Magic." Up until now it's been about the Triforce / Sacred Realm, good and evil, dual worlds, etc. While these are integral to their respective games the magic element seems to have been taken for granted. Where did this magic come from? Why is it available to the characters? Surely, it's worth exploring first-person or not.

Johnny Lee's Wii-nnovations blow TED's collective mind {Joystiq}

I'm sure Nintendo is well under way with the Wii's successor and I'm wondering if they were aware of these new developments and will be incorporating them or is it a quick scramble back to the drawing board.
One thing's for sure: The next console war will spawn some blown minds!!!

No thanks.
Today's most familiar video: LOST gameplay footage {Joystiq}
Jan 25th 2008 1:57AM So...
Obviously the game's finished if it debuts next month. I bet it was originally intended to tie in with a FULL season of Lost. Now that the writer's strike has destroyed that possibility I'm wondering if the game will reveal secrets ahead of its sibling TV show. Everyone who had a part in making this game probably knows how the show will end. How could they do it without knowing? How will the game end? Time will tell.
