I just drove by my local movie theater to get breakfast. There were people standing in line for some reason. I made a U-turn, rolled down my window and screamed out, "What are you doing? Are you not aware of Thursdayton?!" Amongst the blank stares and "huh?"s, one guy screamed out, "oh shit!", ran from the line, and got into his car.

It was all worth it, saving just that one soul.

Where will YOU be come the angelic trumpet's blare?
IMO, this was the funniest post of the thread, I literally started laughing out loud. I hope you didn't make this scene up, it just seems so awesome, it has to be true. :D

You won't see your girlfriend for four months, but if you didn't stay today, you wouldn't see Thursdayton for a whole year.

You made the right call.

Wow that sucks, I'd never ever sacrifice spending time with my girlfriend for anything video games. It looks like you will be punching your computer screen since it's not true.

These patents were filed a long time ago, but they all just showed up on the US Patent site on the 17th, Tuesday:

http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-...0&Query= isd/5/17/2005+and+nintendo &d=ptxt

1, 2, 4, and 5 were submitted by Nintendo.

3 was submitted by Immersion Co., but had to have come up relating to Nintendo because 'Nintendo' was in the search...

...that patent sites these references, some of which sound VERY interesting:

"Force-Feedback Cursor Control,"
"Commercially Viable Force Feedback Controller for Individuals w/Neuromotor Disabilities,"
"Evaluation of a Force Feedback (Haptic) Computer pointing Device in Zero Gravity,"
"Implementation of Stiff Virtual Walls in Force-Reflecting Interfaces,"
"Perceptual Design of a Virtual Rigid Surface Contact,"
"The use of force feedback to enhance graphical user interfaces,"
"Application Areas for a Force-Feedback Joystick,"

Hmm...

Quoted from commenter on the mozlapunk blog:

"Augmented Reality Immersion Entertainment System (ARIES)

The Revolution will project holograms, or rather, mix the virtual with the real. This fits with everything that's been said about the Revolution, and speaks to the ability to make your own games - literally create your own physical levels and have game characters interact with them. Holy crap."

http://sonix.sdv.fr:8080/ramgen/arte/tracks/20040603/immersion.rm

Immersion... the name of the company that came up with patents involving Nintendo and the 'force feedback' stuff.

This looks exactly like what was going on in the Metroid part of the Nintendo ON video.

Double Hmm...

I just drew my arms in to my sides, flapped my hands like a drunken hummingbird, and squealed "Oh My God" in a repeating burst until I dry heaved!
