The Revolution Will Be Globalized

Posted by Zonk on from the remote-controllers-all-around dept.

Gamespot is reporting that Nintendo plans on a global launch for the Revolution. From the article: "Talking about the Revolution in an interview with Nikkei Business, Iwata stated, 'I can only say that it's coming out during 2006, but it will be after the current fiscal year. We hope to make it a simultaneous worldwide release as much as it's possible ... It [the Revolution] would be a complete failure if we didn't sell more units than the Nintendo GameCube'"

    Trusting the word of spong on a rumor is like trusting the word of the kid that works at Gamestop. Occasionally their right, but most of the time their full of shit

    The sooner it is released in south america, the sooner modchips will appear. Here (south america) you can't get original games.
    In a way, that is correct; here in Brazil, the cheapest (new, sealed) Gamecube games go for around the equivalent to U$ 60, and newer titles may cost over U$ 100. Blame our insanely high import fees and business taxes.
