[August 24/25, 2000]

          So much to do and so little time!  Well, it's almost time for me to head back to college, but with all the excitement surrounding Spaceworld 2000, I thought it'd be a good time to update.  If you've been to www.nintendo.com and various other gaming sites recently, I'm sure you've seen screenshots of the Gamecube and Game Boy Advance in action. In case you haven't, just take a look at these Gamecube screenshots of Luigi braving a haunted mansion!  ^_^

          These pics do not necessarily represent actual scenes from the next Mario game, but they do give us an idea of what to expect.  The clip (and  maybe game?) has been dubbed "Luigi's Mansion."  I like the detail in his shoes and overalls, and I thought it was interesting that his eyebrows and mustache are brown, like the rest of his hair, rather than the usual black.  The effects and fluid movement in this clip are simply amazing.  Try to see it in motion, if you can.  And if you can't, check out the pictures section for some more screenshots.  :)
          Now for the update...  As of 4:55 AM EST on August 25th, I've got the entire pictures section updated (for now).  Lots of new pics this time.  I've added some old favorites in with lots of new stuff.  As I mentioned above, I've got a whole bunch of screenshots of Luigi in the Gamecube demo.  I'll be watching out for any new info from Spaceworld.  :)
          I have some new sounds and links to add, but I'm afraid I'm gonna have to put them on hold for a bit.  Keep an eye out for them.
          Oh well, I really need to get a little sleep now...  Catch you on the message board.  :)
