That was a mint time. Sat in a staff chat with John, Barry, JB and James and just talked about what was going on.
- SEGA Mega Drive and Hudson/NEC TurboGrafX consoles are on the Virtual Console of Revolution.
- Legend Of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass was announced for DS.
Those two pieces of news alone sustained us, which I find quite incredible to be honest. From a company and a console with so much mystery currently, to release just two pieces of information and satiate people is fantastic. The SEGA news got leaked a few minutes before it got announced (I believe we were one of the first places who caught onto it) and there was practically a verbal orgasm from all of us except James, who was typing up news, bless his cotton socks. When Zelda DS got announced as cel-shaded, the first thing I said was ‘holy…shit’ and everybody else followed the sentiments.
E3 cannot come quick enough at all. Vikki’s birthday is on 14th May…
Vikki: You’re more excited for that than my birthday!
Mike: …It’ll be a nice birthday present!
Vikki: That’s what you said last time!
Don’t worry. I’ll get her something nice.

Also known as PC Engine. It has Bomberman on it and quite a lot of old school, supposedly class, platformers and shoot ‘em ups.
