The Plan l Getting a group of us to go Nintendo only for a whole year and see how many people can go through with it. We'll have weekly updates with Game Clubs and maybe even a podcast. I've got no idea why I want to do this, but re living the old days of sticking with just one system is fine with me. You can play third party games, but they need to be on the Wii or DS.

The Start Date l 09/09/09 (gives you time to celebrate the dreamcasts birthday)

The End Date l 10/10/10

The Rules l The rules are pretty simple

You Can Play

NES
SNES
Nintendo 64
Game & Watch
Gameboy(s)
Nintendo DS
Wii
Virtual Boy

You Can't play

Anything else


Those Interested

Captain N

Those Not interested

Everyone else? (I hope not)

Normally I'd be down but I just got a decent PC and have some PS2 games I want to beat soon. I pretty much did this until I was 18 and started making enough money to support multiple platforms.

I am in 100% support for this. A great year to appreciate Nintendo, too(NSMB Wii, Metroid: The Other M, Super Mario Galaxy 2, etc).

Gonna need a lot more than etc to fill a whole year.

Good luck Captain N.

No Crackdown 2? Q1-Q3 2010 are loaded.

Nintendo fans have reclaimed the throne as craziest.*




*if any actually go through with this.

uh...I'm PSP-only but I'm going to be seriously tempted by the Vista version of Minesweeper on my wife's new laptop.

Eh, I only own nintendo consoles so I don't have a choice, but why not get great games on all consoles?

Just cause I don't have the time/cash to own all consoles/play all the games I want doesn't mean I have to be a douche to make people try to see the 'brilliance of nintedno!'

Good luck dude. More power to you. I could not do this. I love my systems too much to choose one.

Edit: Dammit, I suck at spelling.

I could drop this generations systems, but not past generations. Then no PC is going to be a huge downer, I say nay.

Ive already done this, unintentionally though. Never planned on it, but it happened. I damn sure wont be doing it right now, with tekken and bayonetta coming.

...wait, I played in arcades, does that count?

Fuck that. If I didn't know better, I'd say this thread's a trap.
Knowing better, it's still a trap.
