Revolution Horsepower Revealed

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the look-inside dept.

Revo writes "IGN.com unveiled leaked specs for Nintendo's upcoming Revolution console today. The system really is about twice as powerful as a GameCube and a far cry from the Xbox 360 and PS3. Of course, the focus is on the innovative controller and the affordable price."

    Any more than $150 and it's price gouging with specs like that... How much does the Xbox with comparable specs cost now?

    If you thought the third party support for gamecube was small...

    Poor little nintendo just cannot compete. Growing up with my NES glory days in my mind, I feel kind of bad for them, but what can you expect, unlike Sony and MS, poor little Nintendo doesn't have a 90% share of the PC market, or a 50% share of the Entertainment market to fund its little consol. So they must attempt to be different by using a gimmicky controller. Instead of just using 1 stupid controller, they should bundle the consol with a bunch of unique controllers, a cool light gun, powerpad, DDR pad, some other crazy motion controllers like a baseball bat/golf club, that would be really unique and be a lot of fun for the family.
