Oh yes, quite a major one that! You'll notice Clawgrip isn't in the boss list for Dokidoki Panic.
The family in the game were the mascots from the advertising campaign for Fuji TV's Dream Factory - a series of upcoming shows and events. They weren't created by Nintendo, but just about everything else in the game was.

Super Famicom & SNES Section UpdatedYup, another update. This time it's the Super Famicom & SNES section. As with the other sections, there's new game lists and articles on cancelled games and hardware. Let me know what you think or if you find anything wrong or broken! Next up: Virtual Boy.

Virtual Boy Section has been Updated!A lot of the Virtual Boy section existed on old versions of the site, so not as much there to read... but who knows, you may not have read about all the cancelled games! Still not sure if that rotating Arwing demo counts as a cancelled game or not... Maybe worth a mention. Or perhaps when the main bulk of the game system pages are done I can include that often-requested tech demo page for each system. I still have a bunch of the old GameCube tech demo videos.

Yeah, tech demos would be much appreciated. And maybe test programs? (You probably have that one if you collect old ROM images) EDIT - Oh, and when you finally reach GC, look at all those ditched stuff they had! Melee looks complete, but the most others looked pretty unfinished / far away from the final product. |

Wow Fry! You sure are on a roll these days!
Just wondering, maybe we could try for real to get this site back working and updated! All pages were very interesting to read.
BTW... that just reminded me of that Marvelous-guide I had to make about a year ago. So sorry!!!! I still have the guide but it's still uncomplete.

Don't worry YL... Remember that NinDB was started at the birth of the GameCube, and so all of those forgotten games are still fresh in the memory. Watching that video, it feels like we've come so far with portable gaming devices in the last 10 years, but consoles have just stagnated. Compare first gen 3DS to first gen GBA and there's a huge difference in graphics, sound and gameplay capability... But look at the first gen GameCube games and stack them up against modern console games... I honestly don't see enough of a difference in quality, and there's certainly been minor improvement in sound or gameplay developments in the past 10 years. Oh well, bring on Project Cafe... I wanted to get some bits and pieces out of the way for the Project Cafe launch at the beginning of June and the site's 10th birthday at the end of June. Any ideas how we could celebrate the 10th anniversary of NinDB? Perhaps with a long rant about how games 10 years ago are about as far as we'll ever come  |

I'm not done yet! Nintendo 64 Section UpdatedThat was quite a slog. I knew there were a lot of cancelled games, but I didn't realise how many of the games had information uncovered in the past few years. It's quite an epic list. Anyway, that brings me up to 2001 and the GBA and GameCube. I feel like I'm making real progress. |

Just a question Fry: Once all the pages are updated, are you gonna continue to make guides for lesser known games like the text adventures again? Those were probably some of the most informative pages on here. And what of the pages for Game & Watch and Toys & Games?

I've been considering what to do next. The plan is to do the Game & Watch, Arcade and Toys & Games sections as part of this run on hardware updates, and I intend to flesh out the toys and games section a lot more.
Once they're done, I've been trying to work out what games I'd like to do next. The remaining adventure games can't be far behind. I'd certainly like to try and beat Time Twist sometime... but I'd also like to cover some of the older arcade games in more detail.

Game Boy Advance Section UpdatedAnd I'd really appreciate it if you'd go check it out and find all the errors, as I'm a bit dazed and not really with it, so there's bound to be some in there.

On the Gameboy Advance games by genre page, the tab headline is Famicom & NES games.

The link for E-Reader games leads to Games by release date.

Can't find any general errors now (other than the e-Reader thing), although there are game-specific issues. Polarium Advance nindb.net/game/polarium-advance.htmlThe outer grey areaa are by no means shortcuts. They're essential for most puzzles. Yoshi's Universal Gravitation nindb.net/game/yoshi-topsy-turvy.htmlI don't think the Egglings give Yoshi any special abilitiyes. They're just for collection (and satisfying the Cuteness Spirit's goals). |

I haven't touched the game pages. Continue to post errors for game pages in the NinDB Errors & Omissions topic and I will come to them shortly.
As for the other one. Dagnabbit! I thought I checked all o' them! I'll get that fixed later when I'm back.
Edit: Fix'd!
