no _wii_. it was the very first famicom. it had the port on the bottom so you could hook up a modem and then do the aformentioned features. ive studied the history of nintendo extensively so i know exactly what im talking about. if you have one of the early nes from the american launch you also have the port.

30 points to anyone who can name how many people were on the 3rd r&d team for nintendo when donkey kong was made, and the names of the people who made it as well. points are redeemable for nothing lol

who else?
who handled the music?
and bonus points if you can explain how mario got his name.

yeah, I knew that already. they didn't name him until "Mario Bros." in DK and DK Jr. he was "jumpman"

well its not here yet xigger. read page one and it shows how youll be able to in the future.

Let me explain it to the....er.... "less intelligent" among us. In a game called Animal Crossing, which has been on the Nintendo 64, Gamecube, and Nintendo DS, you can get clothes, hats, and other accessories for your character. In Animal Crossing for the Wii, your Mii will be your character. As you collect more clothing and other accessories, they will be added into the Mii channel to add to your Mii, so you can use those clothes in other Mii games like Wii Sports.

wow thats cool! Talk about a more interacted game! and by "less intelligent" you must mean "less informed" right?....... :-(

hey _wii_, hate to burst your bubble but dk was where mario got his name. it started with them trying to get a huge arcade title. they focus tested a game called radarscope with good results. arakawa, the head of noa at the time then ordered 2000 units. when they finally recieved them radrscope was boring in the public eye. this left them with 2000 radarscope units noone wanted to play. when arakawa phoned yamauchi in japan (the then nintendo pres of japan) who immediately chewed him out. yamauchi told them since the roms were interchangeable hed have someone ship another game to him and all they have to do is swap them out. so he told them he was giving the task of the game to save noa to an untested producer who had never made a game in his life, arakawa on his last leg asked who and got the name miyamoto. the game roms were then shipped to arakawa who saw the roms and realized it wasnt about killing things or futuristic stuff and admitted defeat. they decided to translate and package the game anyway, during translation of dk mario segalli came in and railed on them for not having the rent and promptly left. so when they needed to name the hero they simply remembered the landlords name and boom mario was born. incedentally noa had nothing to worry about with dk because they left one dk machine in a pub nearby and came back the next day to find 28 dollars of quarters in there. keep in mind this was the time when 1 credit = 1 quarter so that means 112 quarters were played which means 112 games were played which was remarkable for one day. noa would not exist as profoundly if it werent for miyamoto and donkey kong.
