Nintendo puts sat. games in same circular file as DD: dailynews.yahoo.com Boy is Nintendo sucking...these guys have **** for brains. They haven't done much right in a long time, IMHO. If they would have quit the grand DD plan and gone with an inexpensive 8-16x cd they could have gotten back on top...if DD ever comes out, it will be too late. Going the CD route would have made games cheaper; good for consumers, better for developers and publishers who shy away from the system due to the investment/risk involved with a huge cartridge investment. Consumers don't want to pay so much, developers won't make games, and they have lost franchise titles like FF7 to PSX... The next gen systems are going to bury Nintendo...What the hell have they been doing over there?

<<My point is that we may actually see an earnings pick up in some sectors and a slow down in others.>> That's it exactly. This market is set up for a potential fall, but I'm betting that the news out of EIDSY and THQI is going to be good enough to offset overall market risks. The only other stocks I own are ones with major upgrade cycles beginning, AAPL and NOVL. I wouldn't think of having any stocks in my portfolio right now that aren't going to have a fabulous remainder of 1998. Appreciated your previous post on takeover value of EIDSY very much, Bleeker. Btw, CompUSA's Sunday flyer featured Deathtrap Dungeon at a reduced price of $29. Marc
