Hello,
I have the pleasure to announce that tomorrow(03/05/2010 - dd/MM/yyyy) the community will see the project that I'm working 1 week on it, that will do a revolution on how you see/compile your code for NES.

It will be a beta, version 0.3. The project will be called MarioLeaf, it wll combine modern things with old ones. I just need to tweak some performance things, ajust the final details, launch it, then start to improve it to make it alot more better than it already is.

The project image will be this one:


I will wait for you guys tomorrow at 7PM(GMT -3) at the NESdev main forum to see my project.

Best Regards,
Nathan Paulino Campos

Sounds cool! What is it?

You will see in some hours.

We're past 7PM already... Now what? =)

What hapened bud?

Lame.

Rule #1: If you're going through the effort to make an announcement, actually make the announcement. Making an announcement that there is going to be an announcment is rather silly.

Honestly whenever I see this the first thought is "another project that will never be finished". I'm not surprised the actual announcment didn't happen. In fact I almost expected it. It's pretty typical of these kinds of posts. But then again I'm very cynical.


Rule #2: Don't give yourself unnecessary deadlines. Especially if you can't meet them.


=P

I think this announcement was the project.

I mean, look, it's got Mario and a leaf, and it combines a modern thing with an old one. It's everything he said it would be!

hahahaha

Now that would be awesome.

Mario was created in 1983 I think, leafs were created very early in the evolution theory, which is certainly much much before humanity so before Mario.

Well guys, I really doubt this will be anything groundbreaking... After all, it's something made by a NES newbie in 1 week. But still, I'm curious because it might end up being something interesting at least.

Exactly, one modern thing and one old one!

Anyway I don't want to make him feel bad, I'm sure it's something he's put some effort into and I am curious to see what it is.

I think the opening line pretty much makes everything clear (especially the part of giving a date and then explaining the format the date is in, rather than just using an unambiguous format):

On another note, for a project called Mario Leaf, wouldn't the graphic of the leaf from Mario 3 make more sense as a logo?

Poor nathanpc, catchin so much flack for his non-announcement announcement.
