Crepes

The new Nintendo system that is coming out soon supports old school game downloads. Nintendo has said all the games they published themselves would be available, although they also said it would probably depend on the popularity as to whether they make some available. The president said they are also in talks with third party developers to make their games available. Sega has said they are interested in making their library of games available for download. Streets of Rage on a Nintendo system. Never thought I would see that day. Since Sega is now strictly a software developer and do not make anymore game consoles it would make sense for them. I hope they do it because there are definately some good Sega games out there. And when I talk about making Sega games available I mean all their systems not just the Sega Genesis. I am talking all their systems before that and probably even a few of their older arcade games. Any game that Sega published could be downloadable and playable. Also Bandai has already signed on and Nintendo is in talks with other third-party game developers to allow their old game library to be downloaded. Since Nintendo is the only one with this service I can't see why any game developer wouldn't do it. Those old games are just sitting in their library and they aren't getting anymore money from them. The huge ROM scene is the only way people play them and nobody pays for ROMS on the internet. Still haven't seen system specs or game graphic demos of the Nintendo Revolution. Seens tons of things like that for XBOX360 and PS3 so until they come out they are boring. I wonder if some game company could come up with some game that uses 2 controllers at once on the revolution or maybe 4. A boxing game with two controlles would certainly be interesting and maybe quite intuitive. My god that was the queerest sentence I have ever written. I still want crepes.
Fuck what I am going to do this weekend. I know, work on websites, like I do every weekend, like I do everyday. Fuck I have to find something else.
