I think they are replacing Solid Snake in the next MGS with Yu-Gi-Oh

Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles scrapped for PSP and moved to DS and the Virtual Console?

Silent Hill: Deadly Silence?

The end of Yu-Gi-Oh GX? (Nah, that franchise is probably like a cockroach, able to survive a nuclear holocaust.)

DDR: Contra Edition?

A game based off of the Konami Code?

Seriously, though, it'd make my day if there were some major Virtual Console announcements, particularly in the Castlevania and Contra regions, with a dash of TMNT.

It won't be DDR for the DS. Even though I've never played DDR, I'm pretty sure the gameplay features sections where two pads need to be stepped on simultaneously. The DS can't do that.

no no, rainbowblack, zone of the enders 3 for the PS3 with a MGS4 demo!!! much like the zoe for the ps2 with the ms2 demo?

and either way, last year there was an interview with Hideo Kojima and Tetsuya Nomura where they talked about plans to collaborate and were talking about KHIII and ZOE3 on the PS3... maybe it's become a reality?

zoe is an amazing series!!! i hope they bring it to the PS3

I'm praying for MGS4 on 360.

MGS4 for the Wii and 360. PS3's version of MGS4 will be canceled due to programming difficulties.

It's obvious, the clue is right in the news blurb. Konami has created an earthquake device and will be using it to destroy the earth. Superman save us!

Maybe this could be the news that was never announced on the heavily awaited day of 1-11? And hopefully it is MGS4 on 360. Sony's done after that.

Agree with SP420, imma be pissed if its MSG4 on 360 I still hold out that PS3 is gonna surprise everyone in this console war, but if that happens they are gonna lose a major edge

Ha, leave it to Summa to only believe that it will be a 360 or PS3 announcement.

This post kinda smells of Joystinq. I just can't fathom the possibility of Snake on my 360. Still, even if they only announced a wireless DDR pad for 360 tomorrow, it's still another blow to Sony...

I really hope a new Contra game is among those, Neo Contra was cool and all but it left me wanting more. If they're gonna end the franchise, then they should at least let it end with a bang.

honestly, i think ZOE on wii would be awesome. mgs4 would obviously be ridiculously amazing, but i can't hope for that on wii. I really hope it's a kojima game for wii! :D

Earth-Shaking cannot describe it, I was close though with DDR on the DS. I wonder how they hype up for games that are actually good?
