More Hints at Nintendo's Revolution

The Nintendo press conference touched on aspects of the Nintendo Revolution, but offered no details on what "the" revolution is. No word on the controllers or when the console will be released. One new tantilizing aspect of the console was announced, though: "The console also will have downloadable access to 20 years of fan-favorite titles originally released for Nintendo® 64, the Super Nintendo Entertainment System® (SNES) and even the Nintendo Entertainment System® (NES)." No word on pricing, of course, but exciting nonetheless.

    Where are all the guys that said that backwards compability was completely useless and that never saved any console and that was completely overhyped back in the Xbox 360 post?

    Ah! life is a mystery.

    Well since you are not posting anonymously (and I have nothing better to do right this instant) Ill answer. Yes I did looked at the article, actually (just like everyone else) Ive been reading everything about e3 all day. I haven caught at Nintendo press conference video though. But I did read the article that mentioned the "games download" as the "secret weapon" so .. what are you talking about? what anonymous poster comment? Its what it says right there in the freaking article. (and I did said "giveaway" with quotations, I know Is not a giveaway)

    And seriously guys, I understand you like Nintendo but why do you have to bow at every piece of crap they release or be considered a troll around here?

    I mean this is what you expected from a next gen 2006 console from Nintendo? downloading old games? you are willing to shell out hundreds of bucks for that?

    Imo, maybe you guys are the ones buying nice looking bridges close to the Manhattan area. Probably you are not aware of it, but you should.

    Peace.
