Looks...bland. It looks like a router.

as long as it play's games i don't think people will care.

Out of the three consoles this one looks the best.

I really like the Gamecube for parties because of its size and games; it looks like the revolution will continue that.


Though my sense of aesthetics may be suspect. I really like the IBM Thinkpad designs... most people don't seem to...

[aldo_14]

Doesn't look very Nintendo-y, but it's that small I couldn't care.  It's an ickle box.... hella useful for taking over to other peoples houses.

[Flipside]

It'll have Zelda and Mario on it.... nuff said

[Rictor]

Erm, new Zelda game (for the GC) over yonder.

[Nuke]

they better not coe out with a stupid controller design this time

[WeatherOp]

Yeah, it's the best looking of the PS3 or X-box 360, but still don't look as good as the gamecube, but on the other hand, it's so small , the only problem I don't like so far is, that it don't use the little disks, tohse are cool.

[achtung]

I wonder how mario will look on that?

Well, it sort of does (GC games will run on it); apparently there's some sort of arrangement planned that'll allow Rev owners to download & play SNES & NES (maybe also N64) games, but I'm not sure of the details of it.

More wireless controllers...

the wavebirds are actually really good, so it's evident nintendo can make good wireless controllars.

I just don't like the idea of my gaming being reliant on me remembering to recharge the stupid thing every night. Because I barely remember to charge my cell phone.

That said, I looove the minimalistic look of the Nintendo system. But I'll probably be springing for the 360, and then in a few more years, the ps3...

The Wavebird runs on batteries. It lasts quite a while.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if the Revolution ends up dominating the Japanese market just because the PS3 is a monster and the Xbox360 is only a little smaller.

[aldo_14]

Somehow, I doubt the physical size of the console will determine sales in Japan of all places; the X-box's abject failure in Japan wasn;t because it was big, it was because it didn't have all that many games that'd appeal to the Japanese customer.

That would be awesome!!:D  I hate having to change to my SNES to play Super Metroid and Super Mario World, and then still play my NES games, and then play Mario 64. If that is the case then I'll have to pick this console up.

[Deepblue]

It was that and because it was big.

The games issue might take a turn this time... I think Msoft has been working harder on getting developers than anything else for the Xbox360.

This is probably just their way of fighting off emulation.
