Nintendo Revolution
Ok after being announced there have been numerous quotes and rumours about it bringing a totally different way of playing games to the fore. Instead of basing their system on the best gfx they seem to want to change people perceptions of how we play games etc.
so wot do u lot think will be there great revolution? will it be control pads with movement sensors or some kind of new display system? and also do you think Nintendo can actually pull off the rather difficult task of bring something interesting and new in that will genuinely enhance games play or will it be some shite gimmick which just wont be utilised by the games producers?
Well... From what we know so far? Nintendo will have it's own little revolution within itself. The Nintendo Revolution will not have a D pad nor A & B buttons; A first for Nintendo as it leaves it's trademark controls.

"None of the magazine's claims were substantiated by Nintendo, but given the publication's track record of accurate business reporting since 1913, we'd be surprised if Diamond's claims turned out to be false."

It's a Nintendo Virtual Boy. I also own Mario Tennis and Wario Land for it. Boy did I love playing for an hour and then having the worst headache EVER. Red and black hurts the eyes, too.

One thing for sure, Nintendo has annouced no online mode for Revolution.

Err... They kinda did, actually. In an interview with one of the higher-ups, it was made clear that Nintendo saw that the future of gaming was online. Expect Revolution to come with a built-in modem or broadband adapter.

Yea, I remember them emphasizing that the "community" will play an intergral part of the Revolutions success.
There's rumours going around that the controller will have gyro-sensitivity.
Also, apparently the DS is supposed to give a hint of what the Revolution will bring.
