E3: New Details on Nintendo's Revolution

Posted by Grace Aquino | Tuesday, May 17, 2005 1:59 PM PT

In conjunction with this week's E3 conference, Nintendo today unveiled new details about its next-generation Revolution console, a brand-spanking new handheld, a new Wi-Fi service for the Nintendo DS, and new GameCube games. Here's two photos of the Revolution looks like:

The first juicy detail about the upcoming Revolution console is its backward compatibility. It promises to play all Nintendo games from the current GameCube, as well as the ability to download two-decades-worth of Nintendo games, including classics that go all the way back to the original Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) , which was released in 1985.

The Revolution will be "about the size of three standard DVD cases stacked together," says Nintendo president Satoru Iwata. It will feature 512MB of internal memory, an SD media card slot, two USB 2.0 ports, and built-in Wi-Fi. It will support wireless controllers, too, using Broadcom's technology. But Iwata did not provide details on how the wireless connectivity will work.

Revolution will support two optical disc formats ? the 12-centimeter GameCube discs, as well as an optional attachment for playing DVD movies and other DVD content. As we've previously reported , the device will be equipped with an IBM processor (codenamed Broadway) and an ATI graphics chip (codenamed Hollywood).

On the games side, Nintendo promises that it will extend hits like Maria, Zelda, Donkey Kong, and Metroid on the Revolution. Iwata hinted at a brand new game from star game designer Shigeru Miyamoto, but he did not reveal any details. Nintendo is also working with Square Enix to bring the Final Fantasy series to Revolution. The company also expects to have two Wi-Fi games, although no details were provided. Nintendo expects to ship Revolution in 2006.

Game Boy Micro

Meanwhile, Nintendo's next biggest unveiling was a new, super small handheld called the Game Boy Micro. It is so small that "no matter how tight your jeans are, it'll fit in your pocket," says Reggie Fils-Aime, Nintendo of America's executive vice president of sales and marketing. Here are two photos of the Game Boy Micro:

It measures 4 inches wide, 2 inches high, and 0.7 inches deep. At a mere 2.8 ounces, the Game Boy Micro is about two-thirds the weight of Apple's IPod Mini MP3 player, says Fils-Aime. The Micro will offer the same processing power and will play the same games as Game Boy Advance SP units, according to Nintendo. The Micro will sport a 2-inch screen, a rechargeable battery, and Nintendo plans to ship the Micro this fall.

Other Nintendo News

At the end of the year, the company will offer the free Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection service on the Nintendo DS portable handheld. Powered by IGN's GameSpy technology, the service will allow DS users to play with each other using a Wi-Fi connection. New games include the adorable, raise-and-play-with-a-virtual-puppy title called Nintendogs and Electroplankton , which lets you create music by manipulating dreamy visual objects on the DS touch screen.

Finally, Nintendo announced new titles for the GameCube, including The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. The company also expands its Mario series with Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix (yes, he has the moves) , Mario Baseball, Super Mario Striker, and Mario Party 7.

Xbox 360 came out way too early.. It isn't going to do well... They didn't back it up with enough stuff. The PS3 I think will win the NextGen system race. I'm hoping the Revolution does though...

The gameboy mini looks cool enough, but its really nothing new. I'd say it is an attempt to take sales away from the psp, which is a good strategy. I can't wait to see the revolutions graphics. Go, Nintendo!

PS3 will cost a little less than 500 dollars. In Japan it will cost 465 dollars. The PSP costs 160 in japan and in US it is 250. i think its safe to say that the PS3 will be more than 465
thats alot. only hard core gamers will purchase this machine. So i think XBOX and NINTENDO have a better chance

You know what eats me, that Microsoft ripped Apple off in creating the xbox 360, its got a G5 Processor, when you click the xbox button on the controller it bring up a 'dashboard' of links (widgets) to different things the system can to, its got the same mac look, and they actually went out and bought some of Apple's PowerPC G5 Towers to begin programing the next generation games on. Microsoft is a parasite, anything good they create is stolen from someone else. Gates didn't even create DOS, he just bought it from his college room mate before he dropped out. Nintendo forever, Microsoft can go burn in hell.

Once again Nintendo Dropped the Ball. They will have to settle for a distant third in home consoles but since they generally see more profits on units sold than either Sony or microsoft they will manage. Too bad 3rd place isn't glorified!

xbox 360 and PS3 are so ugly, i really dont want them. its ALL about nintendo, he fct u will be able to download old NES games for it is tight, alos it plas cube games. it comes in loads of colours too.

game boy micro and SP are better than PSP because its arcade fun, suitable for car journeys etc. whats the point in playing an in depth game like MGS on the PSP? theyre so long kids will end up playing them in their bedrooms, so they might as well just get a PS2

Nintendo has a lot more great games than either Sony or Microsoft, and as long as it's considerably cheaper than the X-Box 360 and the PS3, i think it's gonna be the best out there. I'm looking forward to buying it.

Nintendo is the past, present & futures of gaming. If you want an Ipod/mp3player/dvdplayer/camera/whatever, why are yoy buying a gaming console? Most of the people tha own a PS2 (I dont know any one with an Xbox) never watch DVDs or listen to music on them. To me its one big triple tie that nintendo (in my case) brakes. NINTENDO IS THE BEST.

First of all nintendos new system will fail cuz it probably wont have a strong online support like playstations and 360's. secondly i fail to see how nintendos new system will put out at much power as the other 2 exspecially with such condensed space. its impossible. and it wont have the sweet media capabilities.

First off. SPORE! (From W. Wirght!)

Try looking it up some time. Depends. Will M$ force al the MP spore action (earlyto be on the net? If not.. I knqo qhw4ew my money might as well go.

Yes, a next gen console is great. BUT. It's hard to buy a PS3 for a free crappy game (or demo disc) and then play the PS and PS2 titles on it when my PS2 works

Second, I like this idea. NES game? Can you say 'Duck Hunt'? Can you say Super Mario? Yes! And the SNES titles too!

Xbox 360 looks awsome, but only if Halo and Halo 2 become cheaper, and then just if I can afford the 360. (For the ineviatable Halo 3.)

HOWEVER! I might not get the 360 soonish if the proce point riesed above the first Xbox much.

Lastly I REALLY want a Dreamcast for 'Incoming!' and Railroad Tycoon. I've always wanted the first sonic games, virtual fighter. was okish. Maybe a Genesis port on Saturn.

It all depends on price now. And can I buy a beefer holder for the revolution. I doubt that this has the survivab.. scratch that. Look at the GC. Still, under my bed is close to the consoles, so loss of console down there is a major possibility. Damn....

Lastly, I know the DC has little net support. I think all the servers are down. Still.. will another console has a modem, a keyboard and mouse (or better, a trackball?))?

That is something I will die for.

i hate all you losers on here who are all like PSP is better than micro. micro was not even created to combat the PSP. it's just for people who want a gba that is smaller and compact and people who have a beat up gba/ gba sp. everyone is already bashing revolution and they don't even know s*** about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!! plus playstation was created from nintendo. when nintendo was working on the n64 they wanted discs. sony tried to help nintendo and they wanted more than half of the profit. nintendo said no deal and sony staloe the tech for the discs and created the playstation. the rev. can play DVDs and is backward compatiable and can play NES/SNES/N64 games. the reason most nintendo games are E is becuase they want their games to appeal to everyone in the world not just people who 30 years old! Do you not listen? IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!

X box 2/360 is coming out to early. Ps3 is same time as revolution but PS3 is to expensive even for some hard core gamers I think this time the race will be to close to call just yet. the 360 will have a good start, ps3 awill have a great finishand Revolution will rock Japan but for here? who knows

First of all, I want to say that some people really need to learn how to spell.

But thats another topic altogether. PS3 is pretty ugly and way to expensive for me. Xbox 360 is looking pretty good, but it's not much different from an Xbox. Even the controllers are the same. I don't know enough about Revolution to say anything yet, so I'll wait on that.

I hope the GB Micro can play MP3's. That would be SO COOL!

specs of both the x box 360 and ps3 are the same so you can't compare them that way. what is true is that the revolution has not enough power to match them.
Nintendo is OUT OF THE WAY.

Now we are left with two consoles xbox 360 and ps3. both with the specs. both will have wireless everything but here is the BAD NEWS FOR XBOX FANS the xbox uses dvd roms each hold up to an imposing amount of 8 GIGAS. the poor ps3 can use dvds or b-discs, blu-rays, that can hold the minimum of 27 gigas and only a maximum capacity of 54 gigas. i mean with so little memory in the disc what graphics and detailed worlds can they hold.

I agree with a lot of people that consoles with way too many features (such as PSP) are needless... Also I don't trust Microsoft lol and the PS3 looks way too expensive... I'll just stick with good ol' Nintendo. I love their games, even if they're a little kiddy sometimes, and they have all the good stuff like Zelda, Metroid, Mario, etc. And Final Fantasy returning to Nintendo sounds GREAT.

Is that gay or what? After 8 years of Nintendo/Mario I'm pretty tired of Mushrooms and clouds with smiles, short guys with a mushroom cap, having a worst enemy that is a turtle, and happy little Dinosuars that you can ride on.

I'd like to say i never really liked sony. They feature a bunch of sleazy games. Nintendo and Microsoft have got the best of all. Halo 3 and all of the new games comin' out for the 360 are going to rock! I also expect Nintendo to have a lot of potential. The best thing would be if they would join forces and crush sone.

OK, I will admit that the new systems are looking pretty cool, but really why does anyone need a DVD player or anything else like that.

First I think that the idea of downloading NES, SNES, and N-64 is totaly awesome but I think they will kind of go back to the 7 year old kids games. I mean, they kind of disapointed me with the Nintendo DS. It was for my 8 year old sister!

Second XBox never really attracted me so I don't think that im going to buy the XBox 360. Although they are gonna have Tony Hawks American Wasteland and Halo 3 which will kill the market

Lastly, I've always stuck with Sony from the day PS1 came out. I think this is the sytem I'm going to buy because when PS1 came out, it rocked the gaming industry with Crash Bandicoot and Tony Hawk games, and it was the first to revelutionize gaming with the disc's. Also PS2 rocked!

Overall I'm thinking it over and i just might buy the Revelution because of the old school games like Super Mario Bros.

So you know what?........GO NINTENDO!!!!!

All I can say is wow! What is with you sony and m$ fanboys who are against nintendo. For you guys, a great game means an endless supply of weapons that each allows you to blow somebody's head off and make the blood gush in a different style. Does an E or T rating draw you away from the game? I assure you that if you were actually look for good games, a majority of them would be E or T. Mabye it's just the graphics on a game. It doesn't matter if the games for the system are ****, as long as it has a bigger hard drive than the other system. I assure you that if you played the Wind Waker, it would be your nomine for best graphics on the Gamecube. Also, Saruto Iwata doesn't create M games (not including Geist) because he knows that there are actual gamers in this world who play a game for the gameplay, and his games have all ruled from the start in the 80's. I for one, am looking forward to the Revolution's innovation, rather than some upgrade to what we already own.

p.s: That so-called gay Mario **** is the reason that all of you have your ps2's and Xbox's. If it wasn't for Nintendo, the industry would have crashed back in the 80's.

p.p.s: When I am downloading all of my classic games on my Revolution, I'm going to start a collection of all of the Mario, Zelda, Metroid, etc.
and have a marathon every now and then. YEAH NINTENDO!

Man, you guys are completely stupid. You should be praising Nintendo right now! They kept the video game industry alive back in the 80's, and you wouldn't even have your Halo or Jak and Daxter, or even Xbox or PS2 for that matter. All it really comes down to is the games, not the functionality. It seems that most mainstream gamers care about now is shooting stuff and graphics. That's where Nintendo wins all the way. They have the best video game franchises (And still do) and the best part is that they are still around. Don't tell me that you have never played any Mario game in your life, I know you have. You can call it "Stupid" or "Kiddy" all you want, but man, those games are extremely challenging! Have you ever played Super Mario Sunshine? Thought not. Anyway, what I'm saying is that most people abandoned Nintendo with the Gamecube because they wanted their idiodic blood and gore, and didn't even care about gameplay. That is extremely selfish if you ask me! I am almost 15, and still enjoy ALL Nintendo games. (Except Pokemon)

The revolution may be the greatest console on the next-gen market but Sony has the marketing thing down. I predict a win for Sony and the PS3

I don't think the revolution will be that impressive since Iwata keeps denying to put any specs out. This could mean two things the hardware for the revolution isn't even done or it just can't compete with the PS3 or Xbox 360.

Wow another game system. You know that even though it's really cool you're not really going to need it. Most people won't be able to afford it. When they can afford it something bigger better and more expensive will come out. It can be very useless trying to keep up with technology sometimes. Although it is really cool and see the reason it's desirable. But like most people I'm pretty much poor at the moment. Well bye.

Get the PS3 for POWER

Get the Xbox 360 for Halo (obviously) or cause it's first

Get the Revolution for trademark characters (Mario, Zelda, Samus)

and it's not worth getting both the PS3 and the Xbox 360

I think Microsoft and Sony are going in the right direction. If any of the three are going down its Nintendo. The PSP alone will keep Sony above the water, with all of it's gizmos and extras, I think they were the first to realize that we really don't need the smallest portable possible, we want features, graphics, and good games, all of which the PSP delivered beautifly. As for Microsoft, From what I've read they have so many special features and good games lined up for the new system that I don't believe they need their huge fan base to sell the 360. Truthfully, I don't like the name of the the new Nintendo platform or the X-boxes sequel. Oop, shoulkdnt have incorprated opinion so much. Anyway, The 360 isn't all peaches and cream, the upgradable memory storage, online maps and game upgrades, and interchangerable face plates all seem wonderfull, but, they come at a price, money. Special maps and upgrades are at your disposal if you fork over the dough. It makes Microsoft seem like a bunch of money hungry... guys.

If you idiot freaks had half a life you would go look at the stats before making a fool of yourselves on the internet. In a stark comparison, XBOX 360 wins by a long shot. Coming out early is a strategic genius, because the first taste is always the best. Please, to all you pathetic Nintendo and Playstation scum, look at the stats, and learn where the real action is at.

The thing is that by releasing the xbox 360 earlier they are doing what sony essentially did. By releasing their product before the others they can sell their product without competition AND have a wider fan base by the time the competing conbsoles come out. This gurantess a higher amount of sale. i know im going to buy the xbox because its cominbg out THIS YEAR. not in like a million years(minus 999,999 years). And you have to remember that sony, microsoft, and nintendo all promised GREAT features for their previous consoles but didnt deliver. The products that you are seeing are simply concepts. Although they play, to mass produce something of that cost is almost impossible. Only sony and xbox's product seem concievable. The Nintendo is to small for the processing chip it requires and the wireless controler ports. the xbox however is larger and has WAY more processing power that even a computer. Im still sticking with the xbox although i think ps3 will rock..i have no hope for the revolution.

Yeah...... The Revolution looks awesome. I think that Nintendo was caught by surprise, and did not have time to do the extra crap that the other companies have.

I'll probably get the PS3 first, which is the best well rounded system. The Xbox 360 is not concentrating on the gaming. I have that as my last choice.

As for the Revolution........... We'll see how it goes...

Most of you are idiots. Nintendo hasn't even said what their specs are going to be so why do you say that the Revolution doesn't have the power to compete with PS3 or XBOX 360? I bet you losers don't even know why the XBOX 360 is XBOX 360 and not XBOX 2. Microsoft says that they wanted a larger number so people won't think it is worse than PS3. Plus how do you know if GameBoy Micro is even going to be $100? You don't. GameBoy Micro is for people who don't have enough money to get a DS, for people with broken GBAs or GBA SPs. Just because the Revolution is small doesn't mean it will have less power. It is going to be the most funniest thing in the world when you see the real RevolutiON and play the real RevolutiON. Oh yeah, most of the people on this board WILL have enough money to get a PS3 because you will get it by going and selling your pot. And when you're playing the PS3 and XBOX 360, you will think it is so cool with its graphics that are less beautiful than the RevolutiON's graphics becuase you are on drugs.

the revolution kicks butt look at these specs:
The processor is manufactured by IBM. the G5-model with four cores wokring at 2.5GHz with (128KB L1-cache each and a shared 512KB L2-cache). Except that there will be seperate processors for sound and physical effects (PPU). The graphic is not to shabby either. A specially designed ATI-chip, RN520, with dual circuits linked with ATI's own SLI-technology. As memory it will use 16MB of eDRAM. The console itself will use 512MB shared between the processor and the graphic. The console will with this support HDTV-resolutions at 720p and 1080i.
The new XBOX has only three 3.2 GHZ processors, 512 MB of RAM, a single graphics card processor with 10MB of video memory, and it is a whole lot more expensive.

First of all, I just want to say how I am a huge Playstation fan. The PS2 controllers are small, all buttons are easily acessible and there are not many buttons. Alos, you don't need to play for online play for Playstation where XBox a fee is required. The PSP rocks because it can play DVD movies, songs, games and more. The display is big and crisp. There even an analog stick on it! The Nintendo Micro is small and has a mere two-inch screen! The graphics are probably horrible! This screen is comparable to the 2000 cell phone screens. I must give credit to the Nintendo Revolution though. I like the idea of playin NES, SNES, N64, and GameCube Games. Its size is cool too. This is a system to look into along with the PS3. Although I love my PlayStations, PS3 doesn't wow me. But, I still think its a better bet then the XBOX 360. I love the idea of it being fully customizable and the power button is on the controller but I hate the controllers! Their huge and have too many buttons that aren't that easy to access. If Micrsoft didn't come out with the Halo series, XBOX would have went bankrupt. PlayStation2 has so many more and better games. Just wondering, did anyone ever see the new PS2---its so small and is already internet-capable!!!!! I love it!

If they made Halo for any other game system, Xbox would be obsolete. No one would buy it.

Anything else besides Halo on XBox isn't worth getting.

PS3 : GTA - excellent game, Gran Turismo-best driving game after NFS, and Crash - fun as hell!

I think that people are missing the point of video game consoles. Remeber back to the days of atari and really bad graphics. We still played those games religiously. I remeber spending hours on the first final fantasy, battletoads, megaman, and sonic. They were all great games. No one cared about how good the specs of the system was going to be. We looked for the games, the ones that were most enjoyable. So what if X-Box 360 has badass processors and spectacular graphic cards. I haven't seen much of anything to play on it from the first X-Box except for Halo. We should look at all the systems and see what would be the most enjoyable. For me, I'm already making my list of all the old nintendo games that I would download if I got the revolution.

1: I have a psp and DS. The PSP has a lot or cr** on it but i like the fact u can store music. the DS has WarioWare Touched wit the touch screen and its awsome.
2: I had PS and have PS2. PS2 is great wit the DVD's and all, but the xbox only plays dvd's wit the [1] on the back. PS2 plays all DVD's. Oh, i have Xbox. I like PS2 better, personnally. I don't play xbox a lot.
3: I would love to get the Micro and Revolution. The PS3 will be too expensive and 360 too. I'll jus get them 4 Christmas. I could get the Revolution and micro on my own. When I first played Mario, i wanted to beat every mario game they came out with. I'm still trying. Zelda,Metroid and other NINTENDO games r kewl too.
4; I don't really care bout the stupid graphics. Theres games that interest you, and games that are retarded and boring. I'm not a big fan of Blood and gore, but i dun mind a good shooting game now and then. But not every gamer is a 20 year old who is gonna play gorey games. some people like simpler games.
Overall: Nintendo should release more specs on the revolution and micro. XBOX 360 and PS3 better watch their prices. Not everybody wants a lot junk on their gaming systems and handhelds. I could just have an Ipod or cd player and a gameboy. So........
GO NINTENDO!!!!!! ( no offense to 360 and ps3)

Ha Ha you dumbys. Everyone should know Microsoft basicly is a company built on lies and stolen tech. i dont care much for sony, it is ok but wheres the fun in the games. the best game on there is probly the gta seris, which get pretty old in a couple weaks of blowing people's heads off and stealing cars. half the ppl who own that game are mostly to young or are on drugs.i know what u guys are going to think next... o another nintendo nerd. maybe i am . a reason why i would be is for the good stupid fun that is on all there games. look at the wario wh games for the gba, ds, and Gcn. there great get toghter games with your friends that you all can laugh at and have fun with, same goes for the mario party seris, kart, and other games. Look at smash brothers melee for gcn. it freakin rocks! the fact you can be ganandorf and kick the crap out of a pokemon! come on you have to admit thats funny! or being link and slice and diceing bowser in stead of ganadorf. Even chars from fire emblem and Earthbound from the snes! and it just a game where you and your friends can get to gether one night and pound the stuffing out of em with chars everone knows, loves, and even hates! Name a game sony and Microsoft have that can give you AND your friends a good time and a laugh. yeah halo is cool but you can get it for your comp (if you own one) you can even get your blood spreaing gta on there too. most Greatest hits on Xbox xome out for the comp and they sometimes cost 20$ less! For all of you xbox lovers and Playstation lovers out there just think to your self, dont you get board of the games in a wile. i have had smash bros melee ever since it came out and i play the crap out of it still today! ask some one you know who loves nintendo and i bit they would say the same too! about any game on gcn. I know all of you know who mario is but ask your selves who are Xbox's and playstaion's chars?? Maybe you should consider giveing smash bros melee or even mario kart dubble dash a try, and dont tell me you diddnt have fun?!? i bet you your life you did! but dont get me wrong at the end here sony is a great company microsoft has to many bad inconters of stealing ideas and programs, just to run there competion out of there area! i say if you were going to buy a system go with ps3 or Revolution. but also ask your selves when you are going to get a ps3, What games would keep you entertaned of a life time?

If any of you gamers out there have a head on your shoulders with a brain inside. Give nitendo a chance. there games are easy to rember! you know why? It was great Stupid FUN! i mean who gets tired of seeing a pluber smashing a walking mushroom in his head.... its funny stupid and You rembered why it was so easy to rember.. who says nintendo is just for 5 year olds, if you do go check out a gcn game your self.

Rember a good game dosnt have to have the best graphics. It has to have its fun factor.

OK FOR THE ONES WHO DONT LIKE NINTENDO, I MYSELF AM A VIDEOGAME GURU. OK FIST OF ALL NINTENDO WAS THE 1ST TO EXCEL BEFORE ALL OF THESE NEXT GEN CONSOLES, ANALOG CONTROL 1ST CAME OUT WITH THE N64, SO SONY, AND X-BOX COPIED THAT. MARIO WAS ONE OF THE 1ST SIDESCROLLING GAMES WHICH INCLUDED FREE MOVEMENT OF GAMEPLAY WHICH IS COPIED TODAY BY NEXT GEN CONSOLES EXCEPT FOR NINTENDO. OK I LOVE SONY BUT NOT X-BOX, AND SONY DID COME AND KNOCK ON NINTENDO'S DOOR, IF THESE TWO WOULD OF MERGED THEN I GUESS THERE WOULDNT BE NO X-BOX! WHY DOES THE NEW RESIDENT EVIL GAMES COME OUT ONLY FOR GAMECUBE AND PS2 AND NOT X-BOX! HERE'S WHY THEY SAY X-BOX IS THE MOST POWERFUL SYSTEM OUT OF TODAY'S NEXT-GEN CONSOLES AND THAT'S ACTUALLY WRONG, GAMECUBE'S GRAPHICS RATES JUST EDGE X-BOX THEN COMES SONY WHICH ALSO EDGE X-BOX. MY 1ST SYSTEM I EVER HAD WAS NES, THEN SNES, THEN N64, PS1,GAMECUBE, AND ALSO PS2, NO X-BOX CAUSE ALL OF THEIR GAMES STINK EXCEPT FOR ANOTHER COPY CAT GAME ORIGINAL FROM NINTENDO NIJA GAIDEN, AND (HALO)(1&2), SO IF ANYONE HAS ANY QUESTIONS OR HATREDTATIONS TOWARDS NINTENDO AND SONY THEN YOU HAVE ISSUES 1. SONY OUSELLS 2. GAMECUBE AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST(YEAH RIGHT COMES X-BOX COMMING IN 3RD IN SALES. IF NINTENDO NEVER CAME OUT THERE WOULD BE NO MORE SYSTEMS FOR ALL OF YOU HATTERS OUT THERE NINTENDO WAS THE COMPANY THAT SAVED THE CONSOLE OR CONTINUED IT TODAY.

This is three or even four reasons why the Nintendo Revolution will not only beat the XBOX, but also the PS3

Christopher
June 10, 2005
8:18 PM PT

1.Cost: Nintendo is the only videogame/console company that truly profits, even to the point of being one of the most profitable companies in the world making 75 billion to Sony?s 80 billion (ALL OF SONY!) That is amazing; with only 10% of the market, Nintendo has been the most profitable. Why? Low production costs coupled with conservative fiscal policies allow them to gain more money with less. It only cost Nintendo close to a $100 to make a Nintendo DS, so they gain $50 per sale. It costs Sony $275 to make a PSP, which sells for $250, thus loosing Sony money! This is what happens when X-BOX is made: Microsoft looses money, not gains, looses! The same will happen with the PS3 and the XBOX360, they will loose money due to enormous production costs. Think people, it costs $375 dollars to make and XBOX, how much do you think it?ll costs to create systems 10 to 30 times more powerful. And this brings us to our second issue, graphics.

Christopher
June 10, 2005
8:20 PM PT

2. Graphics: Let?s say I give you two glasses of plain water, both filtered, same temperature. Can you truly say there is a distinct difference between them? No you can?t! The differences are so microscopical that your senses are far to weak to distinguish between the two. Now, if one cost 2 dollars while the other cost 4 dollars, which would you choose? THE CHEAPER ONE (hopefully, if you have a brain)! This what will happen with the NRV and it?s competition. Anyone that has played Resident Evil 4 or likewise, knows how good the Gamecube?s graphics can be. Imagine 3 times that! But you might say, ?The PS3 and XBOX are have 10 to 30 times better graphics than their predecessor!? I?d say, ?Yeah, but the graphical differences would be so microscopical that your naked eye would never be able to distinguish between the two.? The difference, Nintendo achieves that graohical quality with less, as in only one expensive graphics card. The PS3 and XBOX360 graphics are overkill. They do nothing but increase production costs, and thus sales costs. ?But, the PS3 and XBOX360 will have better games,? you might say. Well... on to my next point.

Christopher
June 10, 2005
8:22 PM PT

3. Third Parties and the Online Connection: The real reason that the Gamecube did not have numerous 3rd party games was simple: no online access. Look at every XBOX and many PS2 games, they almost always have online playability. It?s not that they don?t like Nintendo, which is probably the most respected game company, but they couldn?t make their games on the GCN, because most people bought games like ATV offroad simply for the Online gaming. Thus by the NRV having superb internet access, and lower costs than Sony to publish games (Nintendo and XBOX360 (which will be beat by Sony) use HD-DVDs while Sony uses Blu-Ray DVDs; HD-DVDs are 50% cheaper to publish than Blu-Ray DVDs (which Sony will have to use because they make them; what kind of signal would it send if even Sony doesn?t use it?s technology?!) The NRV will also be able to integrate games that publishers make on the Nintendo DS. And because the PS3 and XBOX360 have microscopically better graphics, it will cost more money and take more time to make PS3/XBOX360 games. Only giants like EA will be able to make games on the PS3/XBOX360, while smaller developers will make maybe one game on them. This will make the NRV more appealing for third parties. Why make a game on the PS3/XBOX360 when you can make a game that?s just as good, with better internet acces, NDS connectibility, and is cheaper to publish, and thus more profitable, on the Nintendo Revolution? It truly could be Nintendo?s Revolution.

Also, the PS3?s controller is gay and both the PS3/XBOX360 look like shit compared to the slick ass Nintendo Revolution.

Nice post, Christopher. As time goes on, I feel Nintendo is the only console company left that realizes many people don't want to spend ridiculous amounts of money every 5 years to enjoy the latest in gaming. I'll be surprised if both Microsoft & Sony hit their proposed price points on their new consoles. Even with economies of scale, all it means is they lose less money per hardware sale. They are still acquiring debt for the sake of market share. Nintendo on the other hand routinely understates the specs. of their consoles at a given price point until release. I wonder if anyone remembers that the gamecube initially had a cpu listed 405 Mhz during development which was later upgraded to 485 Mhz. This was done without affecting the price point of the console. One day MS & Sony may find that they have developed consoles that are priced beyond the scope of the existing market.

Huzzah to Chris. That boy has done some serious studying! I agree that Nintendo, whether they are winning or losing, employs much sturdier policies than the others. Also, Nintendo seems the most balanced of all. I also think it's pretty smart that Nintendo is able to sell a Gamecube for $50 less than a PS2 with a faster processor (if my memory serves me correctly), better graphics (mostly in my opinion), and still make a profit.

Also, Nintendo may have made a slight mistake by not going to disc, but the reasons they didn't prove how wise they are. I, for one, will not stand for obnoxious load times. With Gamecube, I hardly notice them. My experiences with the original PS and the PSP in particular have been painful when it comes to load times.

Not that I dislike the other companies, (although I have a default grudge against SONY for all the people with SONY superiority complexes) just that they don't have the right fit.

The Revolution truly will be a revolution...no other gaming company is smarter than Nintendo, financially and technologically. They truly understand the saying "Less is more" We have to understand that Nintendo is THE pioneer in home gaming thus receiving the most respect, it paved the way for other gaming systems which had to double on everything to try and outbeat the power that is Nintendo. I am a loyal fan and will stick with Nintendo until the day I die. In the end, no matter how much we move forward and how much we advance along with everything else we always return to the basics and Nintendo has that clearer than anyone else. Nintendo will revolutionize and will stand tall against any competition that comes its way now and always...

(that's if I have enough money,at my age(13)it going to be a hard journy but I hope I can get a revolution. But one thing I hope is that nintendo will do there best and surprise us with a new function,Or something similiar.Also if the graphics are awesome and still not realistic(which they probably will be)I'll give it a "BEST THING IN THE WORLD AWARD!"

So Playstation3 is going to come out on top.

Everybody knows that the PS3 will come in first, espescially if Halo 3 is released on it, i mean, c'mon think about it: If you put the top-selling system (PS2) and the top-selling game (Halo 2) together it would kick ass. It would kick even more ass if Halo 3 was released on the PS3. I'm just hoping that the Revolution will pull into second.

Xbox 360 is out far to early, with nothing good to back it up.

PS3 wont do well if priced at ?500, no-one wud buy it.

Revolution will do awesome. it comes out later, seeing what their opponents ware doing first, then judging their move by their opponents. and with online SSBM and able to download older game like Ocarina of Time and Goldeneye? theyve won already if this is true.
I bet Sony and Microsoft are crappin their pants. Nintendo will eclipse them this time.

Handheld wise i think Nintendo is going to loose its monopoly with the new psp out. Once the price drops on that i know many friends of mine who desire it. But i must express the stupidity of gameboy micro.... Why so small... i remeber i had to get a body armor for the SP because it was too small from my hands and without a little more grip and size my hands got cramps because i couldn't comfortably hit the buttons. Now with a 2 inch screen you can barly see and not to mention i will loose that thing so easily... what is the thing with that. Nintendo better pull it off with the revolution or get a better hand hend out there or there future is gone.

The Scoop:

I work at Ciruit City so I can tell you plenty more about these systems then most internet searchers. as of today (sunday nov. 20) the Xbox 360 will be arriving on Tuesday the 22nd. Microsoft will only be shipping about 1 million to the U.S., and then NO MORE will be availible until AFTER CHRISTMAS (unless they really pump up productions, which I doubt can be done more so than now). Nintendo Revolution hasn't been issued any release date execpt that it will be released next year... for all we know it could be this time NEXT YEAR. Playstation 3 is being released in the spiring next year (probably because people get their income tax checks as one factor, and they want to have a large game library/ acessories availible). Despite xbox 360 having a faster processor, it means nothing in performance. apple processors run @ nearly 1/2 of pentium's speeds and yet they run at an equivalent performance rate. Basically, if you have a previous Xbox os PS 1/2, go with the same company so you have some games. With either however nintendo is good because it has the largest possible gaming library. I personally haven't decided which to buy but i want to stress PROCESSING POWER =/= PERFORMANCE.

The scoop for gba micro:

I would also like to mention that the GBA MICRO is merely a small venture by nintendo. The PSP's comparable product, as mentioned by nintendo, is infact the nintendo DS. GBA micro is simply a small gameboy capable of playing ONLY gameboy ADVANCE titles that also has many diffrent faceplates.
Also the reason DS is competition is that while it lacks high quality graphics, it has a new and easy to use interfaxce as well as a price that is 1/2 that of the PSP. Incase you haven't realized the trend, nintendo ALWAYS attempts to be the most affordable system.

EVERYBODY is buying Xbox 360's for Halo! if Microsoft doesn't keep it alive Xbox sales will crash. Only people with spending money will buy the PS3. I am going to get a Revolution because I think the controllers are sweet. ('nuff said.)

I think the people that post some of these statements really need to go through the 4TH and 5TH grade again because they dont know how to use grammer. and i think "playstation" is alwright but i like the Revolution and 360. and the micro is a rip off, its just like the GBASP. and sega SUCKS:) DREAM CAST IS CRAP

I just had a view at the proosed contoller for the revolution. FOr those of you who are unfamiliar, it is going to be in a "remote control" style. I suggest you google to findo ut more, but it seems very nintendo.

Nintendo kicks ass! I can't wait to play online Super Smash bros. ...even though it looks like it may be hard to play with that controler.

P.S. Gimp 4 life!

You cannot take anything away from Xbox's Halo franchize, you can say all that you like about how people like blowing up stuff and blood and M rated games, but the Halo games are good all around games, not just good graphics and blood and gore, great gameplay and especially multi-player. That said I am still a huge Nintendo fan, I like millions of others live for Super Mario Bros, but halo's multi-player is better than Smash Bros could ever be. Nintendo has the best games of any console despite what most people think. They have franchize games with good gameplay which is truly what makes a game great. PS3's specs are amazing, it has some power I can give it that much, but what good is it without good games, in my opinion useless. I cannon stand sony fanboys who buy there products simply because of the Sony name, learn to think for youselfs. Nintendo has many great things, people just use the fact that they have kids games as a reason not to buy there products, that is ridiculous and incredibly ignorant. An Xbox 360 is worth buying just because of how great the Halo games are, and wait until Halo 3.

Xbox 360 Rocks!!!
Nintendo Revolution Rocks!!!
Playstation 3 sucks!!!

Xbox 360 - customize, Xbox Live Gold (pay subscription) & Xbox Live Silver (free subscription) - best online gaming service, Gamecard, download trailers, demos, keep game scores, unlocked achievements, HD-TV, Best Graphics, 4 Wireless Controllers, Media Remote Controller, HD-TV Games, DVDs, Original Xbox Games, connected to a digital camera, itunes, and a Windows Media Center PC.

Nintendo Revolution - you will play all of Nintendo GameCube games, and downloadable access to all the classic games for Nintendo 64, the Super Nintendo and even the original Nintendo. 4 Wireless controllers - When picked up and pointed at the screen, the controller gives a lightning-quick element of interaction, sensing motion, depth, positioning and targeting dictated by movement of the controller itself and it also allows for a variety of expansions, including a ?nunchuk? style analog unit offering the enhanced game-play control hard-core gamers demand. Self-contained attachment for playing media content, including DVDs and WiFi - free online gaming service.

Playstation 3 - just a boring online gaming service, HD-TV, HD-TV DVDs, CDs, Blu-ray Discs, 7 Wireless Controllers, PS One, PS2 games and Good Graphics same as Xbox 360 does. The PS3 Controllers are terrible and they are worst than the PS One and PS2 Controllers were. Also you can?t connect a PS3 to a Windows Media Center PC. Woo wow, I am not impressed with PS3!!!

Xbox 360 and Nintendo Revolution offer more than Playstation 3 ever will.

I am an huge Xbox, Nintendo, Atari, and Sega fan and I will always be. My Xbox 360 is awesome and beat ***. Xbox 360 and Nintendo Revolution would eat PS3 for breakfast. I can't wait when the release of Halo 3 and Resident Evil 5, especially the release of Nintendo Revolution.

Go Xbox 360 and Nintendo Revolution!!!

Live Long Atari and Sega!!!

Go Mario, Luigi, Princess Peach, Toad, Yoshi, Link, Princess Zelda, Donkey Kong, Samus, Kirby, Captain Falcon, Star Fox, Pikachu, Mega Man, Mega Man X, Jill Valentine, Sonic, and Master Chief!!!

The evil Playstation One, Playstation 2, and Playstation 3 are parasites and murdered Sega Dreamcast!!! :D :-P
