Live Nintendo Conference

Anybody else watching this at the moment? They have some pretty cool games coming out it looks like.
So far I have seen Resident Evil 4 (can't comment not really my series)
A new Pac-Man game that had an interesting connectivity concept that actually showed the GBA being useful and serving an actual necessary purpose.

No through Gamespot Live. Unfortunately some of the darker games like RE and Metal Gear are so dark on my monitor that I can't really get a good impression of the games. I tried brightening it, but it doesn't seem to help.

YES!!

The Pac-Man game!! I've known about this for a while in "secret" and they actually DID show it!!

It's supposed to be like this.. one player is playing Pac-Man on the GBA and the players on the Gamecube are playing the ghosts in a 3D version of the maze on the Cube..

Yeah it's actually a pretty cool idea. I just find it so funny that they introduce all their guests from different companies with the 50-cent song "If I Can't."

The idea came from Miyamoto apparently, he really loves Pac-Man.

Of course, what Namco of America has been doing to the holy name of Pac-Man in the last few years, should grant them instant access to hell.

Yeah I found that hilarious. Well everyone should be happy they just showed short clips of Advance Wars 2, Metroid Prime 2, and other games.

Also it was mentioned that the successor to the Gamecube is under development and the president stated that Nintendo will not allow the competitors to gain a headstart this time around.

Now is the Q&A and they seem to be choosing questions which many people on this board ask on a daily basis. The internet question just came up. Unfortunately they gave their standard Nintendo answer stating they don't see any killer apps, and are still currently looking at a different way of doing things in this arena, but have not given up.
