I'm starting to lose a lot of faith in Nintendo's ability to stay afloat with the competition, if it is way to early to show the Revolution it just means that Sony and Microsoft are going to leave Nintendo in the dust.

The DS is a good handheld, but being able to play online only if your in a wireless hotspot may not appeal to people. What would cause me to go out and buy a DS is if they showcased some kind of palm software and media player at E3. Until then portables don't realy appeal to me.

I would at least like a final name for the console out of them. And maybe a logo. That would appease me.

Nintendo Has 2 Mysteries: DS and Revolution

Sony Has 1 Mystery: PS3

Microsoft Has 1 Mystery: Xbox 2

if you tack down DS as a 'mystery', then it would only make sense to add PSP to Sony's list.

only if you thought logically, though...

Back on topic? Zelda? This is about the Revolution not being at E3....But they said more info would come out so basically I think Nintendo will reveal specs, and maybe it's real name.

lol i just posted in the wrong forum.

Sorry for the confusion..........back to the topic..........

Yes I hope there is revolution @ E3....

Can't remember where I heard this (probably some IGN Board), but this made sense too me. E3 2005, they will talk a little about the Rev. Maybe show off what is so great about it. Then right before the launch, E3 2006 they will show the actually machine with all the launch games. Kind of what they did with the GameCube. Personally I think that is a good game plan.

Not a good game plan at all when both its competitors are showing thiers playable a year earlier, and one is releasing a year earlier. Nintendo would need to get the hype up a little before its competitors launch, so right before MS releases, give out a whole bunch of info. then right before PS3 launches show the whole thing. E3 06 might be too late, everyone might of already made up thier minds by then.

I'm forced to agree. People need to know now what Revolution is about. Otherwise they will be sucked into the Sony or MS camps.

Well, XB2 won't be out until december this year and E³ is already in May. They might as well fully reveal the Revo in August (Revelation of Spaceworld?).

But I still hope they will reveal what the technology is... although...

without games, it might be a very poor demonstration.

1 thing I don't understand, can't they come up with some good tech demos / play demos before E³? It's 2 months away!!!!
