ET Warrior Posted June 12, 2004 Share Posted June 12, 2004 I read some articles on the Revolution, and one of Nintendos PR guys said "We're trying to cater to everyone: adults, kids, and women" I laughed that women don't get grouped together with adults Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StormHammer Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 I have to say I'm intrigued by how they intend to 'revolutionise' gaming. That's a pretty tall order when you take all factors into consideration. I mean...it's still going to require a TV or computer monitor to plug into...so you're still tied to a 2D graphical interface. I think what might have been revolutionary was some kind of portable virtual reality that actually works... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoxStar Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 Some Nintendo Dude Rumors abound indicated that Nintendo could separately be working on two systems and that ultimately one would be chosen for retail. System 1 allegedly featured a 2.7GHz PowerPC G5 processor, 512MBs of RAM, and a 600MHz graphics chip. System 2 allegedly featured dual 1.8GHz PowerPC G5 processors. 256MBS of DDR Main Memory RAM, 128MBS of GDDR3 Video RAM and a 500MHz graphics chip. Both systems allegedly featured a built in 15GB hard drive. As of this time, these rumors cannot be validated. @ Stormie I think that they're going to include free online service and something so that you can game with people wirelessly. Probably throuhgh radio waves? I dono, but its probably gonna be something that no one's thought of yet, and when it comes out people wll smack their heads and say, "Why didn't I think of that?"

Sam Fisher Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Great. Another console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerd_Annhilator Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 If you have to pay to DOWNLOAD the games from some service, screw that. Its like pay per view. I hate pay per view. (theres one system like that) and I hear someones making a PC gaming console.....w00t! The thing is though. I now know that the graphics on consoles aren't actually as good as you think. They look all nice and smooth because of the low TV resolution. Couple days ago, I hooked up my computer to the TV to play UT on the TV. Looked nearly as good as say...metroid prime.

ZBomber Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 My thought was its gonna be 3 screens, one for front view, others are side view.... but then I read it was used for computers (you probably couldn't add screens to that....) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
