GDC is here. And we open with a huge huge announcement.

Not only will the Revo be able to download and play NES, SNES, N64, and Gamecube games, but add to that Sega Genesis and Turbo Grafix 16 games as well.

Holy.

Crap.

This is awesome!!

Ugh..I love Nintendo and all, but they need to take a BREAK for a while. They've been coming out with so much crap all of a sudden, the DS, the "Micro.."

Sigh.

That's not real. GDC releases will be in English, not Japanese. This is a hoax.

Noooot to mention that Beth Llewelyn, NOA's senior director of public relations, said she knew nothing about it.

People that don't have a wireless router may have a bit of a problem.

Heh, I bought my model router (D-Link DI-624) specifically because it supports Nintendo Wifi. But for those that don't have a router, there is a $20 USB dongle.

its gonna be so nice lol
i think so for one reason
because they are actually inovating
they are changing game play
xbox360 just has really good graphics
and?
lets compare gamecube and ps2
game cube only has a measly 128 mb of ram
xbox1 has 512mb of ram
gamecubes processor isnt as good yet look at the games
they are right below xbox1 to me
gamecubes rendering is soo much cleaner and smoother
xbox has been getting bad with its rendering. Halo 2 has sooo many rendering problem. I dont have anything against xbox i actually like it(the old one) but anyways back to the point, revolution is a really cool system and i really think its gonna do very well. At least they will actually send out their system so that people can actually buy it(**caughs*Xbox360)

Wow, not too shabby indeed. It looks like if you hold the controller sideways, the gun turns sideways as well. Really nice. Can't wait to see what they'll do with swords now.
