REVOLUTION IS AT HAND!!!!!!!!!!!
As we get closer to E3 let's post all the news on Revolution in this thread! A brand new console; but will it suffer like Nintendo's last two efforts? Can Nintendo pull it off in this day and age? Is this going to be Nintendo's last attempt to regain the #1 spot? Gah! We've seen pictures of the new Zelda and thought "holy god damn! it's uber photoreal!" but now a new hardware system is coming... will it actually... possibly... be something that doesn't use a TV? OMG!!!!!! 3-D glasses? a headset? Virtual Boy 2!?!?!?
Nintendo:
"The Revolution will be shown at E3"
"We have reached a point where games within the next five years will no longer be able to advance graphically. Nintendo needs to focus on style and gameplay; offering new ideas and innovations."
"The Revolution controller will not have a d-pad or A and B buttons. Some theories include a touch screen controller, voice activation or a wireless glove device simmilar to what they use in Minority Report. One thing is certain though, it will be anything but conventional."
"The next system we make (after project Dolphin/NGC) will be backwards compatible with all future Nintendo hardware and NGC (Nintendo Gamecube)."
Miyamoto: "Video games are changing so much, we want to make new experiences no one has ever thought of but the current hardware wont allow it... video games, as a whole, will change drastically with the next hardware. It will be completely new, like nothing you have ever experienced."
"The time is not right for Nintendo to go online yet. That time will come when the market is larger and more accecible. Wireless technology and the Nintendo DS is a venture in to that market... it will lay the ground work for home console online capabilities with Nintendo."
OH JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! E3 is 130 days a way!!!!!!!!!!
May 17th is the conference and may 18th is the first day of the expo! it's going to be awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111
