Revolution Easy To Port To

Posted by Zonk on from the hands-across-the-consoles dept.

Despite suggestions that the Revolution will not be as powerful as the other next-gen systems, 1up is reporting the system will be easy to port games to. From the article: "It's easy to see Nintendo's logic, though. Even though Revolution won't have the same memory bandwidth as Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, the familiarity with current generation development and tools that Revolution takes advantage of means most companies shouldn't have much trouble working Revolution into the mix."

    I suppose they won't look as good graphically, but that did't stop people from purchasing inferior looking games on the PS2

    Yes it did, anyone with an XBOX bought the XBOX version.

    Also anyone following the REV should've known this already, it simply uses the same chips in cube at a faster speed ensuring backwardsc ompatability, and easier development learning curve
