With the mass success the GBC is having (as well as the tons of games coming to the system) not a lot of us staffers are all that surprised. Dissapointed, but not surprised. Let's just hope the Dolphin sticks to it's Winter 2000 release in Japan. (please gawwwwd please!) Here's the juice.

Star Wars for all!
Due to today's release of Star Wars: Episode One on video, I will be out most of the night. I would highly recommend the purchase of this fine video. Get the widescreen! The extra money is worth it, and you get a cool art book and movie cell as well. The box is even nice. ;)

I want one, do you?

That's not a typo, come August you'll be able to get a Dreamcast for free. The catch? (there's always a catch) You have to sign up with their ISP, Sega.com and... Read more...

Duh.
Yes, our stories on Saturday we're in fact April Fools jokes. I figured most of you out there would have realized it. Unfortunately, a couple of you didn't find our jokes funny. So from now on, we are going to be completely serious, and not poke fun at anything anymore. We are going to be stale, boring, and not a whole lot of fun. :)

Again, the Planet proves itself the premiere source for awful puns.
Yahoo! Yahoo! A pirate's life for me .. OK, corny pun. Ever been through the Pirates of the Carribean at Disneyland? Too close to resist .. sorry .. sue me, I have no assets.
Anyway, it seems that Nintendo, Sega, and EA are filling a lawsuit against Yahoo! for aiding and abetting known software piraters. And rightly they should! I'm sure you've heard this already, but here it again in glorious audio at the link above.
