No revolution at 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!!!!
