| Saturn's Last Stand: |
|
|
It appears as if Working Design's Magic Knight Rayearth may not be the Saturn's last game, or more
importantly, last RPG. According to Eclipse Gaming, both Dragon Force
2 and Shining Force III: Scenario 2 & 3 are both
virtually certain to come to the US. And then for the cherry on top of the sundae,
EG says that Grandia is still getting a serious look, and it
is being translated for the UK right now.
However, we would like to point out that Sega of Europe has reportedly said in the
past, that they had decided NOT to release Grandia in the UK, and this information can
only be considered rumor at this point in time.

A Lunar pics page is now available. Almost 50 Lunar: Silver
Star Story pics are up, along with about 25 from Lunar: Magic School. There are only a few
Lunar Eternal Blue Remix picsup so far, as screen shots have been VERY hard to come by, but when
the game comes out next month we will have more available.

| New Zelda 64 Information: |
|
|
IGN64.com has just translated an article from the
latest issue of The 64 Dream. The article gives some insight into what game data makes up Zelda64's huge cartridge. Here is the article:
In response to a reader inquiry in the latest issue of the Japanese
magazine, The 64 Dream, Nintendo's PR chief Hongo-san said that the extremely large
cartridge size of upcoming Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is principally due to the size
of the map (game world) and the boss characters.
Many players are worried whether Shigeru Miyamoto's next Zelda title will offer a large
enough quest to satisfy even the most hardened RPG fans. Mr. Hongo's statement raises
hopes for much gameplay and a world much larger than in most 3D adventure games.
In the Q&A, Mr. Hongo also commented that Zelda 64 would have better action sequences
than its predecessor and that the game features much variety due to the fact that Link
grows from a little boy to a young man as it progresses. Mr Hongo assures us that all will
become clear this fall.
