Welcome to the Panasonic Jungle

[Jim]

So... apparently a large consumer electronics company will be teasing/revealing a new videogame-related product tonight (self site-pimpage, sorry) on MTV on Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory. The episode that airs tonight at 9:30PM ET/6:30PM PT.

Can't really say much about it yet except that it's something sort of unexpected.

I'm sure there would have be some sort of thread afterwards, so getting it out of the way now. I'm pretty curious to see the NeoGAF reactions, hah. Should be interesting.


Edit: Panasonic Jungle has been revealed: http://www.gaming-age.com/news/2010/10/4-6

Not much to go on with this, but I'll begin:

iGame

 

[noirebanana]

Final Fantasy VII remake? Shenmue III?

Spoiler

[water_wendi]

Not much to go on with this, but I'll begin:

iGame

My guess as well.

 

[ZealousD]

Wow.

A completely non-informational announcement of an announcement!

I love how this meta-game is playing out. What's the next step?

 

[Zeenbor]

So you mean Mattel will finally release their new Voltron Gamescom Handheld??? COUNT ME IN!

 

[AceBandage]

Since it's MTV, I'm betting it's some new music something or other.

 

[twinturbo2]

If Rob Drydek's involved, it's either a new Skate game or some more Dirt 3 info.

 

[Air Zombie Meat]

New nyko intercooler?

 

[Seda]

some new peripheral, probably skateboard or music-genre related.

 

[Mama Robotnik]

Can't really say much about it yet except that it's something sort of unexpected.

Mario and Duke Nukem at the Commonwealth Games.

 

[Mad_Ban]

I bet it's going to be the mother-of-all letdowns (I get hyped too easily).

 

[Stabby McSter]

Ew, Fantasy Factory. Dyrdek is a kook.

 

[Gospel]

Why would Sega use Fantasy Factory to reveal the Dreamcast 2?

 

[AceBandage]

It makes no sense that it's being revealed on the show, so don't think that logically.

:lol I thought this was a parody thread.

His interactions with Peach are what cemented the R-rating, don't let anyone tell you it was the gore.

 

[ultron87]

Launch of a network for showing competitive gaming. I'd love that forever.

 

[Drkirby]

Lets make baseless speculations of off beat choices!

I am placing bets on ether Panasonic, AMD, or IBM trying to make their own game system. Double bets on AMD though, since they have all the tech under their roof to do so.l

Or it could just be the new PSP

 

[Regulus Tera]

:lol I thought this was a parody thread.

It is not?!

 

[Gomu Gomu]

When I first read the title, I though this is gonna be a thread mocking the whole "announcement of an announcement" trend :lol . Anyway, I'll bring my popcorn. I recon this might be interesting.

 

[Suzzopher]

SEGA to announce an online gaming service, much like Onlive.

[cosmicblizzard]

MTV? Eh, probably not interested.

 

[Vinterbird]

Harmonix/MTV made skateboard rhythm action music game.

 

[AceBandage]

It makes no sense that it's being revealed on the show, so don't think that logically.

So, it's a Wii game...
Something with animals...

 

[Scrow]

yep, Apple iGame is my guess too.

 

[spats]

Samsung coming out with a tablet-based console that launches with remakes of FF7-9 and Crysis 3.

 

[twinturbo2]

Wait, maybe they're going to announce a Jersey Shore video game...

 

[Jim]

When I first read the title, I though this is gonna be a thread mocking the whole "announcement of an announcement" trend :lol

Oh I wish it was! :lol

Pro-tip: Don't set your expectations high, though it's definitely something I wouldn't have expected.

 

[water_wendi]

Maytag's finally dipping into the video game console scene.

The current gen consoles wish they could tout a figure like the Maytag Repairman.

 

[I <3 Memes]

Resident Evil 5 on xbox 360!


But anyway, sounds like you know something Jim. Is this on the megaton level?

We need a thread announcing an upcoming thread.

 

[MrNyarlathotep]

[Geek]

Oh, it's probaly PSP2.

Set your expectations lower.

 

[twinturbo2]

Play as the Situation as he tries to figure out how to use a door?

I shit you not, I thought up of this a couple of weeks ago. I was thinking more of a beat-em-up like the Scott Pilgrim game, where the guidos fight to take back the Garden State from Trash Bags and her gang.

I'd pay money to play that.

Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory

Yes, this will almost certainly be one of the things mentioned in this thread.
