Nintendo/Revolution Press Conference

[Dyne]

At first I thought it would end up in the category of Gamecube/GBA compatibility - A few good games from famous franchises - but in the end not that much of a profitable run.

But now that they're starting this innovation from the get-go, I think it'll be like the Dreamcast. Except successful. Nintendo has the money to back this thing up whereas Sega didn't really, for the Dreamcast.

PS3 and Xbox 360 better be afraid. They're in the same class. There's going to be the Revolution, and the others.

Such is a revolution.

I'm hoping the controller will be like the iPod... the latest gadget that everyone MUST own.

[GameMaster]

The Revolution controller will become a common item, seen in subways on the way to work, in the backback of a young student persuing high education at his university, and even around the necks of older folks at the local swim club. Video games will be mainstreamed into everyday life. Wives will cut the family's dinner vegetables with a Revolution, dentists will clean their client's teeth with a Revolution, and local firemen will exstinguish a fire with the aid of a Revolution.

The revolution shall return Nintendo to the glory days of the SNES!

[GameMaster]

A console so fantastic, it will return Nintendo to the glory days of handmade hanafuda cards! Video games around the world will be tossed from their shelves and adopted by trash cans everywhere! Long gone will be the days of children's eyes being illuminated by the flash and bang of their TV screens. And in this wake of realization, the computer and internet shall fall as well. The joy of paper and toys returns! Down with electronics!

Look at this, looks legit, but I doubt it: http://www.playbomb.com/2005/11/01/1...t-vr-but-cool/

What do you mean by that?

Like you don't understand or you don't buy them?

It's all about the telephone.

I just dont really get how you're suppose to play the revolution.

[GameMaster]

The Revolution will be more of a free-form type system. In that actions and gameplay will involve the expression of hand and arm movement.
