Nintendo Revolution Leaked info

Post by Cyberblade »

Apparently, someone has already leaked info for the Nintendo Revolution, and from what I've read it's the same guy who leaked the DS info.

http://news.designtechnica.com/article6377.html
Apparently the same person that leaked information about Nintendo's portable handheld the DS, has also leaked information about the big N's next generation console.
# That Nintendo is building gyroscopes into the controllers, presumably to add some sort of motion-control aspect to games.
# The console will have dual processors and built-in broadband (we’re assuming Ethernet, but maybe also WiFi?).
# There are no plans to connect the DS to the Revolution, but there could be some integration with the Game Boy Evolution.
# The Revolution will have four controller ports, a hard drive, and support for high-resolution displays and Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround sound.
# The console will be backwards-compatibility with GameCube games, and in what would only be a swipe at Sony, its drive will use HD-DVD, rather than Blu-ray, discs.
# The console will launch with a new Mario game (of course), and there is a new Zelda game in the works.

I think Sam was trying to point out that you misspelled Nintendo.

I just hope they make it small like the GC ;)..........
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!

wow... those all sound.... not crazy. When I heard that the next nintendo system was going to use some revolutionary interface I was thinking "Oh my god I'm going to have to play the next zelda game with an eyeToy", I'm glad its a lot more sane then that. And GC compatability is a definate plus.

if you dont know the DS is not to Replace the GBA becouse it is not a true Gameboy becouse it only plays GBA and DS games the Gameboy is backwards compatable with older GB systems

Not true, they could have added the feature for the DS to play old Gameboy games but it would have required another processor, the Z80.

The DS is another system, the gameboy and DS are brother and sister rather than other GB models which are father and son.
