I don't think anybody's posted these yet. The pictures have been floating around IRC today.

These will be here for just a couple hours, so save them now.

That looks cool as hell.




Killer instict would be awsome if they made it.

I am foaming at the mouth to play all of Nintendos new line up. That Mario game looks awesome.........I am such a Nintendo fanboy I make myself sick.

[spoon]

Wow, Looks like mario is now in scale. He truly looks to be Super. But, I spy a small Fire Mario. Games looks sweet. Any new 2-d Mario is a welcome addition.

@Dave-I was waiting for you to make a topic about this. If not, I was gonna.

[buttasuperb]

This is the kinda stuff that would make me a Nintendo fan again.

[tholly]

looks awesome...i cant wait to get one of these systems in my hands....

:eek 2: :eek 2:

MY GOD!!!!!! This will rock! 2d/3d Mario bros. is like a dream come true!

[optic_85]

Im not trying to be a bubble burster or anything, but these pics look fake....And with all the fake pictures of the DS going around im not going to trust any screens unless they are released by NINTENDO....But if these are real, than this game looks awesome!

[Crush Crawfish]

Nope, It's real!

:Resumes frothing at the mouth:

[davidbrit2]

These came directly from nintendo.com (I saw the page). I would stake money that they are real.

[Rev. Link]

I hate to be nit-picky, but if that is indeed real I'd rather it be straight out 2D.

Still, it looks awesome none-the-less, and I'd pick it up on launch day.

[Ayce]

Ok I'm very excited. I have been wanting them to go old school with mario again on the cube but with a 3d look like Super Smash Brothers. But this will definetly do.

This screenshot, in particular, is super badass.

Those are some great screenshots!

I like what I've seen of the new SMB... Seems like Nintendo's giving it the Metroid Zero Mission treatment!

[Captain Wrong]

Why do we need the second screen again?

Those shots do look nice tho. That's what the GBA should have been like. Of course I'll be double impressed if it actually looks close to that good running on the hardware.

OK, I'm done with the grumpy comments...for now. ;)

[Ze_ro]

It's a good thing Nintendo didn't try to do this game on a machine with only one screen. It might have sucked. :roll:

[brandver3]

Wow, so freaking awesome.

Take that PSP Death JR.

[Bratwurst]

I can't wait until it's emulated. :D

[Half Japanese]

I think we can excuse the double-posts, in this topic anyway! </cheese>

Looks nice, hopefully they'll deliver enough compelling experiences at a rapid enough pace to make it worth our while. *cough*Gamecube*cough*

[Jasoco]

This really makes me want to be a Nintendo Fanboy again. That's it! I'm selling all my Sega, Microsoft, Atari and Sony stuff!

Just kidding. Do not PM me. LOL

I can't wait to see this thing come out. It's gonna be a hell of a ride.

[Cmosfm]

:D

OHHHHHHH boy, E3 you cease to amaze me this year. I am now so excited about the DS that I don't give a rats ass about a second screen! PSP's gonna rock too! Man, I can't wait to get ahold of these new handhelds.

[ManekiNeko]

Wow, so freaking awesome.

Take that PSP Death JR.

Huh, my ears are burning. And it's not because I stuck a flaming Q-tip into them this time...

Sorry, but my money's on the Nintendo DS. See, I like to have variety and freedom of choice in my video games. Pretty, pretty graphics aren't that important to me, but if they are to you, the PSP is right up your alley.

[kainemaxwell]

Holy crap those are lovely screenshots!

[EnemyZero]

I had a feeling the DS would rock, but im totally amazed, im SO gonna be in line on release for this bad boy, unless i have to work, then i wont have to wait in line :P, PSP has nothing over this, because its just gonna be an overpriced piece of junk, anyways back to DS, WOOOO kicks ass :)

[Jasoco]

:D

OHHHHHHH boy, E3 you cease to amaze me this yearActually, you mean "You never cease to amaze me.." ;)

What you said means you weren't impressed at all.

Anyway, frankly, I think that if Nintendo had decided not to go GB compatibility, the DS would have flopped. The backwards/sideways compatibility is what till sell this. People like to know that they will have games already to go and won't have to sit and play one new game all the time until they can afford another. In essence, the DS has a REALLY big library. Even Sony's launch title count could never compare. This will go well with parents and kids alike.

I will definately buy this on launch day. If my store gets them, I will get it there discounted. if not right away, I will reserve it at GS and not get the $15-20 off. I can't wait! Any date set yet?

[Rev. Link]

Q4 2004 for US and Japan. Q1 2005, I believe, for Europe. That's all I know.

[NintendoMan]

This is the kinda stuff that would make me a Nintendo fan again.

What the hell drove you away from not being a nintendo fan anymore?
So this stuff still isn't good enough to make you a nintendo fan again?
(Cause you say only would make you a nintendo fan again)
:D
