Donkey Kong + 64 ???
16.9.1999


I've just heard that Rare are going to include the original Donkey Kong to the Donkey Kong 64, it already offers Expansion Pak with no extra cost (so they say), because DK64 actually requires Expansion Pak in order to work at all. Good for those who already don't have the EP.

A Perfect or a Dark christmas ?
16.9.1999

It's not unusual that a Nintendo64 game is delayed, but if it's about Rare's Perfect Dark what should we do? Be happy when Rare is putting in the finishing touches, so that it could become even better than promised ? I guess we should be, we can't let Perfect Dark to be released unfinished, can we? But it's happening anyway, and it won't come out for christmas. Now the release date is around April 2000. Currently they are optimizing the Expansion Pak support. And what I've heard there's a reason to it, see, when IGN guys played it at E3, there was some problems with framerate in the first level of Perfect Dark.

New Playstation2 info
16.9.1999

Even though this is N64 site only, I wondered would you be happy with some new info about Playstation2. It will support both CDs and DVDs, and it's downright compatible with Playstation. Sony says it will be out 4th of March in the year 2000 in Japan. It will weight about 2.1 kilos, good to know. The price will be about 370$. It will hit europe's shores during autumn 2000.
Because this is an N64 site, I must defend Nintendo and say that Dolphin (or the next generation Nintendo console, as it's called nowadays) is estimated to cost about 100-200 US dollars (because it won't play DVD movies). Next Gen Nintendo console will have a processor with 400Mhz clock speed, and Sony has confirmed that Playstation2 has 300Mhz clock speed. Those PSX-fanatics swearing my name should know I only take confirmed info to my news (usually).

New Link available. Oh, yes...
1.9.1999


Probably the best Perfect Dark-dedicated site has provided me with a picture of their logo, and I will use it as a link to their site, which is Perfect Dark Headquarters - pdhq.com - Please use it... It's on bottom of this page...
I'm exaggerating ??? Oh Yes, of course, but who cares...

64DD released this year ???
1.9.1999


Nintendo's new expansion to N64, 64DD, is planned to be released 1.12.1999 in Japan. It's a shame that 64DD is not going to be released in europe or US, for that Ura-Zelda is released only on 64DD.

Gameboy 2 four times better than the original ???
1.9.1999


Gameboy 2 (or potentially Gameboy Advance) will be 32-bit handconsole, which is four times better than the 8-bit Gameboy and Gameboy Color. You better remember that Playstation is 32-bit console too, but the experience will be totally different when played with about 2inch screen compared to your home TV. It will also support the new Communication Adapter. Release date for Gameboy2 is still uncertain, but Nova64 will keep you informed, whenever it's revealed. Stay tuned because Gameboy 2 is certainly the next generation of handconsoles.
