Ummm.... sorry. I'm gonna have to side with Big N on the cartridges. If you are talking about the N64, the speed of a cart was blazing compared to the craptacular speed of the PS1 cd-rom drive, and cart's dont get scratched. Their only loss in this case was pre-rendered video, but I'll trade better gaming graphics for cut-scenes anyday.

If you are talking about NDS, well.... I'll pit my DS's battery life against a PSP any day. I admit it though, I cry myself to sleep at night thinking about how I lost out on $25 UMD movies ):

You have GOT to be joking about missing out on UMDs.

Pick up one of these for $25 and copy your own DVDs to it.

You'll be watching any movie you own, (or rent) in no time.

I'm sorry, but where on that link to GameSpot does it say that he won't be showing off new products?

So your saying Nintendo was right about using cartriges instead of CD's? It sure didnt help them against the 32 bit PS1. These are the stupid decisions Nintendo makes that hold them back from taking any kind of console lead. By the way N64 was a failure, thought I should break it to you.

As for your DS battery life, if playing crappier looking games longer is a high point for you then enjoy.

I don't find it odd that he is speaking for the second year in a row. He is a very important person in the video game buisness, more so in Japan.
Despite your feelings of Nintendo not breaking tradition (you know, innovation aside), I highly doubt that they have control over who speaks when at the TGS.

So your saying that (arguably) the most powerful man in video gaming doesn't have some sort of pull at the Tokyo Game Show?

I think he is sought after to speak, not he seeks them and asks to speak.
He is one of the most powerful people in video gaming, which is why he speaks. He is important. Do you think the TGS wants the head of some random developer speaking as the key note speaker?

If there were any way to prove it I would put a bet on Nintendo's "revolutionary" controller still being on the drawing board.

Ray Hagerman.

That would be a little tough to prove, yes, considering Nintendo have physically shown some developers the controller...
