Nintendo Revolution Details Emerge

Posted by Zonk on Sunday May 15, 2005 @03:33AM from the you-say-you-want-a-revolution dept.

Pyrohazard writes "Nintendo has posted some details on the Revolution to their official site, finally giving us some insight into what the console will be like. From the site: 'It will be about the thickness of three standard DVD cases and only slightly longer.' This makes it the smallest Nintendo console yet! It will also be able to stand up, similar to the PS2, and the Xbox 360. It will be backwards compatible, and it will also play '12cm optical disks in the same self-loading media drive'. It also states that it will have a very quick start-up time, and be very quiet. It finishes by stating 'Get ready for the Nintendo Revolution in 2006!'" C|Net has an article up arguing that Nintendo is making an error in missing the 2005 Holiday season.

My PS2 can play DVD's? I thought it was a video game console!

and if you wanted to legally own your own computer, you'd also have to use a pc.

since you are not the legal owner of the processors in your console computer.

have a nice day citizen.
