June 25!!!?!?!?!

>

yea tell me about it I was hoping at least the beginning of June around Mario Party 8 time.

yes, the DS browser is coming...

June 4th is when the DS browser launches in North America?!?!?! Freakin' sweet! But the whole PBR being the first online game and its in June does not look well for online Nintendo gaming in 2007...

June 25th..**** @_@...

I think you're all missing the bigger picture here. Online is still months away, and I see at least a couple games that could benefit from online, but they obviously won't have it due to the fact that they're scheduled to release before Pokemon Battle Royale!

Although I'm glad to see that MP3 and SSBB, etc are not among those... *whew* There's still hope.

better late than never...

woah I made the portal! Yea I was hoping for some possible Mario Party Online but oh well. I guess that's why it's Mario Party. Anyway well at least it's coming and hopefully many games that release afterwards will have some awesome online capabilities.

That's the first thing that saddened me when I saw this. Mario Party 8 coming out before PBR so that means definitely no online play.

Who knows? maybe they will delay MP8 again and add some WiFi stuff. wishful thinking, with my luck it will be delayed again and have no online capabilities.

May 29th? D:
June 25th? Dx

Sorry, I can only edit, not make games release earlier.

What an average line up for the Wii... wow...

Thanks for the better lookin pic Kindrik. Well according to the new stuff from GDC Super Paper Mario should keep us busy for awhile. There is a fresh gameplay video here if anyone is interested.

D:

Super Paper Mario already far exceeded my expectations. After reading IGN's impression of it, they have guaranteed a sale from Ricky.

Definitely, but that and Pokemon are all I'm getting by the looks of it.

Not impressive, I guess its kinda avoiding the drought that Reggie said we wouldn't have to worry about.

oooooohhhhh wheree are mario galllaxy adn smashhhh
...and disaster ..and hammer... and all those suprises..?
I dont care when, just gimme ballpark so i know they ARE coming eventually! ... theyre further away then they were before the launch...! grummmble

...I guess i'll get paper mario and big brain and maybe something else...

but i wont like it. cuz i havent heard when those other ones are coming, and i dont wanna wait anymo...
