Forums · Nintendo Revolution Unveiled
Iwatched some 'live at e3' thing on the tv and they were complaining that Nintendo didn't do much. PS3 and xbox360 showed off their new cases, controllers and had tech demos of some of the games and such while all Nintendo did was go, 'Here's a case for the REvolution, here's a tiny GBA, and now we're going to show a small movie about Zelda 2 for GC, oh and we have an internet service coming.'
It was kind of brief.
I'm intrigued by Nintendo's new system and out of the 3 that's the one I'm most likely to get but I would still have lked to see a bit more. I know for a fact that there are some games already being made that they could have shown off, but I guess they did the right thing by not showing them in case they didn't pan out.

[quote] so..correct me if im wrong, revolution no longer uses those mini-cds?[/quote]
nope, its going to use full sive dvd discs, however, it will still be able to play gamebube game, and it'll have free wireless online! ;D ;D and you'll be able to download nes, snes and N64 games onto its flashi memory of about 516 megabytes, and you can add extra memory with SD cards, and it'll have wireless controls! and more... ;D

downloading nes, snes, and n64 games, etc will be nice to be able to do.. but is there an alternative if you dont have internet on your revolution console? I was thinking you could buy the DVD disc's with the data on it.
( then you could upload the games onto your pc for more emulation )

Internet is rumoured to be FREE so you're not going to have a problem.
It's all wireless. I don't know how Nintendo is going to do it but they plan to launch worldwide wireless service and do not want to be like xbox and charge people to use it.

Most likely they will be.
Nintendo knows that emulation for each of those systems is quite good so if they charge money a person looking to play can just download a game and play it on his computer. Nintendo has to give us incentive to download these games.
Also I was going to say that it was in fact free but I thought that I'd be a little careful cause everytime I post somthing in a factual way people tend to want to disprove me.

if the control is wireless, there will clearly be positives and negatives about it. I dont know much about this wireless control stuff, but if it was optional to pick between the two b4 you purchase Nintendo's Revolution.. then things would be okay. Although i reckon wireless controllers will run off of batteries and make things a little more annoying for us if thats the case.
I'd still rather use the wired controllers, but i may consider getting a wireless controller one day. What do you think of em?

it looks ok but i'd still rather XboX 360 or ps3 but with the wireless ones it is really easy for somebody to work in front of you and your controller loses recption and you can't do anything. as i have found out with the ps1 wireless controllers...
