Interesting... now they're saying 104 megs of RAM (24 and 16 from the GC plus 64MBs more, not counting 'probably 3mb on the videocard' or the flashram), and power "one and a half to two times the power of the Gamecube"... and pretty standard DVD media size -- 4.7GB single layer, 8.5GB dual layer... plenty without HD textures...

Oh yeah, and if these rumors of the CPU and GPU basically being improved versions of the stuff in the GC, it'd sure explain how the Rev. will be able to do full backwards compatibility with the GC...

Anyway, whether or not this is true, it does look pretty certain that Revolution won't match Xbox 360 or PS3... which is too bad, if true (I'm taking all of these rumors not as fact), given that before this Nintendo has always had very competetive graphical power... I know they say 'graphics power doesn't matter anymore' and they are partially true, but you CAN see the difference, and people will. The question is if they can do on home consoles like they did with the DS and convince people to buy the thing anyway...
