You can see a wrap-up of the RECENT Tokyo Game Show at ign.com here:
http://ps2.ign.com/news/25459.html
also, http://www.coremagazine.com/ has good coverage in general, but shitty proofreading skillz.
Here's the.nfo file from their last release that spells it out. Also - not sure where that emu reference came from - there's no emulation involved here.
The formatting is trashed but I don't want to link to where this is;)

Proudly Presents Game : Ganbare Nippon Olympics 2000 (C) Konami Sports Origin : JAPAN - NTSC Filename : KAL-GO2K.001 Released : September 2nd, 2000 CDs / Rars : 1 CD / 7 RARS Platform : Sega Dreamcast (DC) Format : CDI (DiscJuggler
Sega has offered us stock options to stop releasing DC, so this will be it, our last release. Thanks to all who have supported us throughout our stay in the DC scene. Take note this is NOT a joke. We are really stopping all DC operations with this release. We will continue on with the PSX. Bye Game Info: Ganbare Nippon Olympics 2000 is the successor of the previous Track and Field games on the PSX. Check out a whole lot of 12 events such as Pole Vaultor and the compulsory 100m dash. Be impressed by the superb motion captures of the Athletes and the true 3D environment. Music and sound matching perfectly to the Olympic Atmosphere
Nice to see console stories on/. but this is from Saturday, and you guys should maybe take time out from those FPSs sometime;)
I just had a similar experience with a Lexar smartmedia card - the blisterpacked box could easily hold the digital camera! and the plastic is about 9x7 for a product the size of half a credit card! - and these products are always behind the counter to avoid theft - I'll check out the CR site [thanks] and make a complaint too.
"The Microsoft Applications Company drops all support for the Macintosh. They view it as a fringe platform that can't generate enough revenue to justify continued support of Internet Explorer, Outlook Express and Office." They can't drop Mac support until the 5 year deal runs out [late 2002, I think], and I still doubt they would, 10% of the market is still alot of $. I think linux support would have to happen eventually too - just to keep office everywhere. "They needed to be able to point to the Macintosh as proof that Microsoft did not have a monopoly on desktop computer operating systems." Actually, IE on Mac proves it isn't part of the OS and blows one of their defenses. - It was also another Netscape-kill move. The shareholders would also demand PalmOS support [80% market share] and that would kill off WinCE/PocketPC for good;) - even though only a handfull of Palm owners [comparatively] would buy MS apps since they would be so late to market - could be a nice scenario!
Slashdot Mirror
Um - then why wouldn't they let the Gay Games be called the Gay Olympics? bunch 'o' goofs! Let's all just boycott!
It's not a CD3 - It's a 1.5GB mini-DVD.
