 -=> On The 10 Mar 98  20:34:04 Patrick screamed A Big Appology at All <=-
 C> I owe a BIG appology to ... euh.. fogot who, but the guy that was
 PC> saying that Capcom were making games for the N64.  Well, I was on the
 PC> WEB today, (trying tosee if he was right or not).. and he is RIGHT.  I
 PC> saw the Capcom titles at the list of games that are supposed to come
 PC> out for Nintendo 64 in the next X month/years etc..
 PC> As he said, Ghost and Ghouls 64, Street Fighter and MegaMan 64 are
 PC> going to be released but when??
When it's finished..  ID are releasing quake on PS but when..?  the game is 3 
years old now..!?!
 PC> If you want to check it out for yourself, check out: www.ign64.com (I
 PC> think). But what bothers me, is that it could be a holks, 1- It's not
 PC> an official Nintendo Site. 2- They didn't even put names for it, they
 PC> said that the Street Fighter, would just be called -> Street Fighter,
 PC> which I DOUBT very much, cause all the street fighters by Capcom have
 PC> like a 2000 name extension.  (I.E. Street Fighter EX alpha +)... So I
 PC> say it's just a holks. 
I don't really like IGN..  Not a bad site, but not brilliant either..  Try 
the nintendojo or if you want tech. specs dextrose..
What you have to try and understand is that capcom like most business' aren't 
interested in loyalty to one manufacturer, they are interested in money..  
Now in britain there are 2 million PAL N64 owners & another Million Import 
Machine owners..  Thats 3 Million N64's..  So if capcom release a game & say 
half of the owners buy it (& in britain at least that many would as there 
aren't many games being released..  2 this month, one for N64 & one for PS) 
Thats 1.5 million times #50 uk pound..  Around 30 pound goes to nintendo, #10 
pound on advertising & other things capcom would have to pay out..  but that 
still leaves #10uk pound times 1.5 million profit = 15000000..  Fifteen 
million pound..  Not a small amount..  And thats what capcom, like most of 
us, are interested in..  Maximising Profits..
 PC> Another thing that brings to the doubt, is that they have this section
 PC> Janitor's Report.  That's is the dumbest thing I have ever seen, saying 
things
 PC> like -> This guy order a pizza (at core designs) and as a payment, he 
let him
 PC> play Fighting Force 64. YEAH RIGHT! And they were talking about a Need
 PC> For Speed 64, and uh.. another 64 somthing of a game titles that made a
 PC> suces on the Playstation.. So, well.. it's dumb, they are just rumors,
 PC> and cannot be confirmed.
I've never heard of any of those games coming out, but if you want to be sure 
just e-mail Capcom, You probably won't get a straight answer, but at least 
you will have tried..
