Rumor is that Nintendo will be revealing all on Wednesday. Matt Cassimina said so:

NoE said info will be revealed "very soon". Matt, who usually has insider knowledge, has said "it could be a day or it could be a week" about a week ago. Nintendo has revealed stuff about Gamecube on 8/24/00 and 8/24/01. This isn't a coincidence.

Here it is, the announcement you've all been waiting for. They all amounted to nothing but BS in the past, but finally we are treated with a revelation of epic proportions.

Mario on a snowboard, for the FIRST TIME EVER.

I believe Nintendo revealed info on the 24th of August those years because they had held Spaceworld on the 24th of August those years...

This year, no Spaceworld... And considering how many times we've had "SOMETHING-TON!" in the past year: this year, probably no info...

Oh. My. God. I've been waiting for Mario to get onto a snowboard for years...ever since I learnt that you could put characters on snowboards.

I'm the master at lazy SSX mode. I will beat all of you into the ground. Dylflon knows what I'm talking about.

It's revolutionary in the same two senses that controller rumble is/was revolutionary: first, it's kind of actually not a huge deal, but controllers will eventually all have it because it is pretty neat; and second, it involves revolving. Simply, the Revolution controller will provide resistance to being tilted. No doubt this is done by some application of a tilt sensor such as the one in WarioWare: Twisted combined with rumble technology.

Hmm... feels... illegitimate...

Crash · 08-23-2005, 02:54 AM

what its saying is that you twist it one way and the more you twist it, the more it vibrates, giving you a point of origin. and a feel that it sort of has resistance when tilting. ..... this could be true.

but that would seem to be more like

Nintendo Innovation

not nintendo revolution. unless the revolution is just going back to the beginning with the old school games. *shrugs*

But what would be the point of that? Like for tilt-sensitive games it would act as an indicator as to how much you're tilting it incase you're somewhat challenged and can't either sense it yourself or tell by how the game is reacting?

I DO NOT UNDERSTAND! >:<

Seems like a cool controller.

Jonbo298 · 08-24-2005, 07:29 PM

Wow, if thats legit then its gonna be pretty cool at the least. Dont know how well it will work in practice but I'm hyped if its legitimate.
