Rev Specs Revealed

wow...well i guess they're all about the profits. spend a little, earn a lot.

i guess PS3 and XBox 360 will be for the cinematic, high-production value games while Rev will be all about the interactivity. I would be lying if I said I didnt wanna see a new Zelda game with graphics that have trumped anything currently on the market, though.

Don't these specs undercut even the lower estimates of clock speed and so forth?

Final specs or not...... we all know now that Nintendo has willingly opted out of the next-gen war and it will be a Microny console war.

I find it clever that in the article they used 'new generation' with Rev and not next-gen.... In some ways it's true.

While Microny is heading into the next-gen of graphics and games, Nintendo is creating a new generation of gameplay.

Well met... I say.

It'll save Nintendo and the consumers money in the long run. It might screw Nintendo over for multi-platform games. I'm thinking Nintendo is banking a lot of faith in the Rev's controller that developers put emphasis into that rather then putting games on the Rev that are also on the 360 and PS3.

The Gamecube had sweet graphics.

in 4 years, i doubt anyone is going to praise Gamecube's ability to process 'sweet graphics' compared to the industry standard

Truth be told, this is a pretty bold move by Nintendo. But I said that back when Nintendo was like, "the rev isn't gonna be a power house it's gonna be 1.5 times the cube."

The question is will it appeal to the American market. I know Japan will eat it up.

I think something to remember is that Nintendo fans are some of the most devoted in the community. While I am aware that this is going to start a war, I genuinely feel that Nintendo fans are going to stand by the products. Nintendo has a great console concept coming out and I don't think they're going to lose out if the games are not multi-platform.
