NINTENDO's NEW CONSOLE
well the nintendo company has always been my favorite but now that xbox and playstation have been boosting up gaming sales, well from my opinion i dont know the true statistics, and i saw a rumor on the upcoming console for nintendo. its nuts all these new consoles. well i love nintendo and they have a change to BLOW everyone away because everyone is coming up with new consoles but there is a rumor for the new Nintendo console called "Nintendo Revolution." They have a chance to beat xbox and playstation and i hope they do cause nintendo is an all time favorite.

so has anyone heard anything else on nintendo revolution.???? this is where i found the rumor >>> click

speculations is that the Nintendo revolution is going to be unique in a way were the game is viewed in 3d and they had the first hearings of it at a panel. i dont know what they mean 3d but they said the controllers will mostlikely be all wireless and support a pda type touch screen.

this sounds juicy but these are all speculations.
i dont know but there is just so many things they can do now.

edit

here is another good link : IGN . COM

Yes. The Nintendo Revolution will in fact have controllers that are touch pads...in fact, the developers of games can modify the way the controller looks, according to the game. They can change the layout, functions, and everything they need in order the make the game more enjoyable.


Source? This is just a rumor. Nintendo did admit that the "revolutionary" concept will involve the controller, but this does not confirm a touch pad.

Personally, I have my doubts that 3d the technology in the above topic will be part of the revolution. This might be a bit expensive, which is not nintendo's style. But if they can pull it off, it will be BIG.

Nintendo has a big chance to regain the lead. Playstation's Cell processor will be tough to program for, so 3rd party support may be lacking in the beginning (unless sony releases some good devkits).

Also, something on the side...did you know that Gamecube was a 32-bit console, which is why they didn't have Mario 64? Haha!


No, the gecko processor is 128 bit. Certain operations executed by the processor may be 32 bit (and some are 64 bit), but the Gamecube is indeed a 128 bit console.

i cant see the video that you showed in that last quote of the link. i wanna see it.
and what are devkits.

and i still dont get this unique 3d quality of the games . i dont get how that works.

So thats the skinny on the Revolution.

The Xbox2 is a very intriguing piece of hardware however. It is suppost to contain 256 MB RAM, as much as the 600$ ATi Radeon x850 XT. How would they lower the price point on the entire machine if the graphics processor is going to be a beast like that?

The PS3 prospects to have the same kind of outlandish pricing, with a graphics processor that is "Courtesy of nVidia, and far more powerful than even the current (and obscenely expensive) PC powerhouse GeForce 6800 Ultra."

The next generation of consoles is going to be a big battle, and MS and SONY are bringing the big guns. But much like in, say, Halo 2, sometimes a rocket launcher doesnt do the trick, and a good ol' Sub Maching Gun can wipe out many foes.

All I know is that e3 is going to be some kind of show, and I guarantee that the industry will be changed greatly. I believe its going to be a big turning point in gaming. Will graphics win over gameplay? Will developers lose sight of the true objective, pleasing the player? Will Shigeru Miyamoto wear another Link costume?

All these questions will be answered, and alot more at this year's e3.

it sounds like its gunna have a lot of cool things. but wifi with the SP thats awesome but with wifi isnt it slow? like would it be as fast as regular speed as in your computer. i mean i know how psp's can connect through wifi but are they all that fast?

but yea i love nintendo as i said so im definatley buying this. but that makes me worry about buying a xbox 360.
