Next Generation asks the questions, Beth dodges the answers. We do know that the Revolution will cost less than the competitor’s consoles though and that should help them appeal to a larger crowd. [Source: Next Gen]

While the controller announcement floods the gaming news industry, there just so happens to be some select games out for all Nintendo systems. Here’s some of our picks and what to look out for on the radar. OUT THIS WEEK Ultimate Spider Man (GC, DS, GBA) DK: King of Swing (GBA) Battalion Wars (GC) Tiger Woods ’06 (GC) ON THE RADAR Fire Emblem (GC) 10/17/2005 FIFA 2006 (GC) 10/04/2005 P...

Even the boys at Business Week are impressed with the Revolution controller unveiling. Is it just me, or has the controller announcement high jacked video game news? Maybe even general news. Okay, not everything but it really seems to be infiltrating all the news networks and people are liking what they see. In addition to kind words, the article brings to light Nintendo’s recent PR mantra: ...

How will the Revolution controller affect your favorite franchise? Be it Mario, Zelda, Metroid, or DK, it’s sure to spice’n up the interface scene and changes should be expected. Although a lot of “conspiracy theorists” are saying Nintendo might play a trick-a-roo on us with Twilight Princess, I think it’s safe to say this game will be for the GameCube and it will use...

Not a lot of new information on the wi-fi service, but this is what Nintendo is sending out to retailers. It does do a good job of breaking down the benefits of Nintendo wi-fi; mainly free and easy use. Click on image to enlarge. What are you most excited about with Nintendo wi-fi?[Source: 4CR]

Games First has a nice Pro-Nintendo read on the innovative Revolution controller. Best line in the article: “Compared to the Revolution, the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 are simply expensive upgrades to existing platforms.” Innovate indeed, and that’s why they “get” it. [Source: Games First]

Mr. Iwata confirmed that Revolution users will be able to download demos for the Nintendo DS to the console and then transfer them wirelessly to their handhelds. Not sure how this would benefit a DS gamer unless he can preview it first on his Revolution. If not, just download it to your DS, right? We should learn more next month about the wifi service. Stay tuned.[Source: DS-X2]

More response from developer’s can be found on Next-Generation’s site. Most of them give rather good impressions. It would be nice to hear from Capcom, Konomi, and Retro as well. [Source: Next-Gen]

I might ruffle some feathers, but I don’t think we’ll see the Revolution until November 2006. I know the unconfirmed revo ad says otherwise, and we’d all like to play it right away but I just don’t think it’s possible given the fact that the Revolution has no working games (at least with the controller anyways). This doesn’t necessarily bother me though. I’...

The boys over at I4U News just might have proof that the new Revolution controller is tiring. The picture to the right shows an elder gentleman holding his elbow while “playing” with the new interface. This is totally a joke in light of our recent Don’t Make Me Move post. It’s not to be taken seriously. What’s more funny though is how some major game sites are still m...

Although the article disses my beloved GameCube console, the writer gives good props to the new controller, DS, and recent Nintendo first party games. Altogether, a quick and easy read and worth your time. It’s always nice to see the Big N on MSN. Read MSN Article[Source: MSN]
