There's Japanese documents leaking left, right and center, and earlier today aparently, it appears someones come across the ones concerning Nintendo's 'DS' Handheld which has yet to have anything about it confirmed, apart from the fact it's got 2 screens, at least until now...
Here's a nicely typed out list of what the Handheld will have according to this "report". It's all unconfirmed though, you'll have to wait to find out whether it's all the real deal at this years E3...
An ARM 7 and ARM 9 processor, with the ARM 7 running at 33MHz (the GBA's ARM 7 runs at 16.8MHz) and the ARM 9 running at 67MHz
4Mb of system RAM, as well as 32K of processor RAM for both ARM 7 and ARM 9, and 656K of VRAM.
Compatability with GBA Software
Each screen will have a resolution of 256x192 (GBA= 240x160)
At least one of the screens will be Touch Sensitive
Powerful 3D Graphics being able to push out about 120,000 polygons per second!!!
The buttons are the same as the GBA's: D-Pad, A & B Buttons, R & L Shoulder Buttons, but also a possible X & Y Button to be added after a decision has been made. his will then make the controller similar to that of a SNES Pad.
Wireless LAN Connectivity, with the possibility of upto 16 Players connected at once using something known as 802.11
I Hope no mod closes this, because it might be alot of fun. anyway, we are just going to place ourselves in a small deseart, and beat the stuffing out of eachother with hosehold objects. I hope that everyone who posts here will have off the wall weapons. Now for the battle.
*With a small *pop* Vahn appears in the deseart next to a pool table. he lines up a shot and smacks it in the pocket as hard as he can.*
"It gose in with the Patented, KABLOOIE!" *Suddenly looks around realising that he's in the battle deseart. He pulls out a pool stick and a half Giant-Que-ball sheild.* "I'm Waaaiiitiiiiiiing!"
did you know what playing games like PSO over long periods of time (lets say till lvl 100+) can cause you to be more likely to go mad than a person who doesnt play repetitive games?
What do you think of Shadowhearts. I think it is absolutely class for an RPG from Japan!! Especially after the impressive start with Koudelka (although with Koudelka, you was only in one location and it also felt like Resident Evil, but without the zombies and other freaked out creeps). Also has anyone seen Shadowhearts II yet, I've looked on the Japanese website and it looks wonderfull!!
and you can see the characters in Shadowhearts II. I got a selection here:
(From the left is Lucia, Nicholas Conrad (the main bloke in the game), and Veronica Vera)
There at about 18 characters shown on the website. They are, Nicholas Conrad (main bloke), Kallen Koenig (main girl), Kurando Inugami, Urmnaf Bort Hyuga, Geppetto, Blanc, Joachim Valentine, Lucia, Anastasia, Jeanne, Rene Curtis, Veronica Vera, Roger Bacon (from Koudelka!!), Albert Simon (from Shadowhearts I ????), Pieerre Mazymell and Gerard Mazymell (both are homos, no offence to gays ), Edward Lawrence, Great Gama, Carla, Sarah, Ernest Seaton, and Edgar. (In total twenty-two people!! But most are probably non-playable characters).
