artist mockup of revolution




Quote:
# n a Nintendo first, the Revolution will sport an internal hard drive. The Revolution will have a two-sided, 8mm disk with a 5.4 GB capacity.
# The Revolution will be powered by twin processors. Just like Microsoft, Nintendo will use a custom IBM central processor. The one created for the Revolution is code-named "Broadway."
# The graphics card will be supplied by ATI and is code-named "Hollywood."
# Games will come on HD-DVD format discs rather than Sony's Blu-Ray format.
# Nintendo will finally get in the game with some online gaming support. Nintendo is set to create a service like Xbox Live. The early version of this service is what Nintendo is using to provide connectivity to the Nintendo DS.
# The Revolution will not support connectivity with the DS but will link up to Nintendo's next handheld game system.
# Preliminary development kits have already been released to some game studios. Apparently work has already begun on three of the launch titles -- new Mario, Zelda and Super Smash Bros. games.
# The Nintendo Revolution will use IEEE protocol to act as a wireless hub in the home. This will allow interaction with other Revolutions in the area.
# You will be able to hook the Revolution up to a television or computer monitor.

No, if anything you're making the PS3 look that much better.

That's not any more credible than some random guy's mock up. The Revolution is hardly "Revealed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"


/me shrugs and walks away

Well, it's a nice sum of what we know so far, and some popular speculation. But that mockup is complete crap, ugh. Nintendo is the same company to bring us the SP and the DS - I expect the Revolution to look very, very sexy.

It looks very alien, like something you might find on another planet.
