20 Titles At Revolution Launch
Next Generation reports that NOA's George Harrison expects there to be 20 titles for the system at the Revolution launch. From the article: "The other thing we recognized is that you really make your reputation in the first year ... You've got to deliver software, not just at launch, but you've got to deliver software in the first six to nine months after launch. It has to be solid software. In GameCube, we didn't have that, we had kind of a drought for six months after it launched. By that time your reputation starts to solidify and it's hard to reverse that after awhile."
This means about 20 developers thought "Hmm... that's a cool controller. Wouldn't it be cool if you could use it to swing a sword... or something."
The games are:
I snaked this list off a power point presentation given at a recent conference to investors of the Big N. For just a few seconds we got a look at the long list but they flipped to the next slide to discuss all of the different colors the Revolution would be released in and spent about thirty minutes discussing that. Really odd, I thought.
Anyway, after the presentation I went up to the machine hosting the presentation and move it onto my USB jump drive. Here is the list of the 20 awesome release games for the REvolution that will surely make it the greatest launch EVER:
Mario Kart: Revolution!
Mario Baseball: Revolution!
Mario Tennis: Revolution!
Mario Soccer: Revolution!
Mario Golf: Revolution!
Super Mario Strikers: Revolution!
Mario Golf: Revolution!
Mario Party 7: Revolution!
Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix 2: Revolution!
Mario Beach Volleyball: Revolution!
Mario Versus Capcom Versus SNK: Revolution!
Paper Mario: Revolution!
Sunshine Mario: Revolution!
Paper Sunshine Mario: Revolution!
Mario Classic Arcade: Revolution!
Wario Wrestling: Revolution!
Mario En Espana: Revolutiones!
Mario Bowling: Revolution!
Mario World: Revolution!
I cannot wait for revolution to come out. With a launch lineup like this they are going to annihilate the competition!
One thing I never saw mentioned, and which I am curious about... what if the controller flies out of your sweaty hands while swinging that bat? I wonder how many broken tv's, windows, or fish bowls will result from this and how long it'll be till someone sues Nintendo after being accidentally thrown a controller at their head.
