E3: Nintendo part two
Nintendo's booth also has a lineup of DS consoles where people can play multiplayer Metroid. If you've played the demo you've seen it all, but it is cool to be able to just sit down and bash heads.
On the tech side they're showing off DSpeak, an IP phone tech that seems to work really well. If you want, you can sit down and talk to pretty people via a vid conference setup (the voice is done with the DS). Fast and clear are the words of the day, but there's no way I'm sitting down and talking to these people. I overheard one of the models say "Nintendo will continue to change peoples' lives." Hey, it's okay for gamers to say that, but it just doesn't sound right coming from the mouth of an N employee.
Hey, Pokemon is here. Who knew?
Dancing with Mario can wear a girl out. They asked me to dance and I said no. Revenge at last for my high school years!
I?m going to go get some hands-on time with Yoot Saito?s Odama. Be back asap.
