Quote:In an interview with the Dallas Morning News (registration required, sorry), Anna Dolecki, Nintendo's Director of Public Relations, said that, "Showing Revolution this year will be very important to us in terms of making sure that our audience knows that Revolution is real."
She goes on to reiterate the other information that we've known, using three DVD cases again as the point of reference, as well as the ability for Revolution to be housed either horizontally or vertically.
This is the first word from anyone inside Nintendo that Revolution will be shown this year, but there is a small possibility that the quote was taken out of context, and that while Nintendo will show Revolution this year, it won't be at E3, but at another event. However, The Dallas Morning News did state in its story that "Nintendo won't reveal details of the Revolution's technical innards until E3", the first glimpse of hope that we'll not only see Nintendo's new "sleek" console, but we'll find out what's powering the machine as well.
3 Days Left ...
If this is true then it's going to be one heck of an E3!
The name is alright, I think. And it makes sense, since the princess looks to have a larger role this time around, and the whole twilight thing might mean that she turns into a werewolf at night... or something.
But the most exciting part? 2D Metroid!!
I hope this is real.
P.S. Battalion Wars is the new name for Advance Wars GC.
Nintendo is actually hyping up their new machine a few days before E3, on their own website. Unbelievable. Has Nintendo finally grown some balls and is willing to fight aggresively this time? It's starting to look like it...
Nintendo, the world leader in video game innovation, stated loud and clear that they are not to be overlooked in the next generation home console race with the revelation of several unique features of the company's next console system, code name Revolution, to key media outlets. According to the early information, Revolution will combine powerful technology and gaming-focused features in Nintendo's smallest home game console yet.
In its final form, Revolution will be about the thickness of three standard DVD cases and only slightly longer. The versatile Revolution will play either horizontally or vertically, allowing the user total flexibility in setting up a gaming session wherever they have a television.
Thanks to Nintendo's hardware development partners IBM and ATI, the small system will be packed with power that will enable it to wow players with its graphics. Nintendo's legions of loyal fans will be happy to learn that Revolution will be backward compatible, playing both Nintendo GameCube 3-inch disks along with its own standard, double-layered DVD disks in the same self-loading media drive.
In the next generation, the addition of the Internet will be important to all consoles and particularly important to Nintendo. Revolution will be wireless Internet ready out of the box.
There's much more to Revolution that will be revealed over the coming months, but the combination of its compact size, wireless Internet, backward compatibility, quick start-up time and quiet, low-power operation add up to the start of a great game system. Get ready for the Nintendo Revolution in 2006!
Perrin Kaplan drops some tiny details on Revolution the night of the Xbox 360 reveal.
By now, everyone knows just about everything there is to know about Xbox 360. Nintendo, on the other hand, has kept a fairly tight lid on the details of their next console, codenamed Revolution. All that has been known until now is that it will feature wireless connectivity, similar to the Nintendo DS.
Today, Perrin Kaplan (Nintendo's Vice President of Corporate Affairs) has divulged some info about Revolution to The New York Times. The article is mostly about Xbox 360, but Kaplan did give some interesting information on two facets of Revolution, including it's size, described as horizontal, and no taller than three stacked DVD cases. That's pretty small, but why use DVD cases as a frame of reference? The answer will make many Nintendo fans quite happy.
Kaplan: "Unlike GameCube, the new system will play DVD's", Ms. Kaplan said, "and will feature a wireless controller. It will play GameCube games as well as a new class of high-definition games, with new emphasis on online play".
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I could give a shit about the ability to play DVD's, I have a DVD player, but alot of people will see that as a reason to buy! I'dont understand what an 'HD DVD' is other than that it holds more info than a standard DVD, so hell's bells bigger DVD's YESSSSSS! Confirmed wireless controllers too!!!!!!! I hope they're not suck like XBox360's! But the best part is, because Kaplan was describing what the system looks like, that means it's FINALIZED!!!!!!!!!!!!!! there's no reason other than politics NOT to show it at E3! *everyone* is saying the XBox360 is a failure, even XBOX FANS! So Nintendo better effing go nuts at the show and show us amazing stuff like FUCKING METROID IN 3-D with GLASSES and THINGS FROM THE FUTURE THAT MAKE BUZZING SOUNDS And now.....
