I love the IGN board reaction... After everyone was busy laughing at Xbox360, now everyone's complaining about Nintendo's own press conference

Granted that doesn't mean the revoultion is gonna be bad, it's just that when Microsoft and Sony are really showing off what their next system can do, and people are blown away by at least one of them, you gotta show SOMETHING....

What are the graphics going to look like, what will the controller have that'll make it so revolutionary... A tech demo, a mockup of the controller, or even spoken DETAILS on what makes the controller 'revolutionary'... ANTHING...

Their only 2 real surprises were the GBA Micro, and the ability to download (supposidly nearly every) old NES, SNES, and N64 games... And both of those are sticking to things from the past, not moving towards the future and the "revolution"...

At this point I'm hoping for a Spaceworld 2005... If they don't spill the beans on it then, does that mean they wouldn't fully reveal it until NEXT E3? *strokes beard*...

Nono, that's not what they said. They said "nearly every game WE made". So at least first party games.

GB Micro.... what can we say?

WTF?

I just woke up about 20 minutes ago, strolled down to read up on some BADAZZ Revolution stuff, but where are the goods?

It is a sleek design, but where are the games? Tech demos? Mario 128?

GB Micro is nothing...Zelda, I've seen trailers and screens. Please tell me there's more than this, guys...

See that's what I initially thought when he brought up the downloading old games thing... But I coulda sworn there was a time when he said it in a more general way, implying that it goes beyond just Nintendo's games...

If it's just Nintendo's games that will be available, as good as they are, even that's a dissapointment...

And that design isn't even final so in actuality we saw nothing.

I didn't expect to see the console. Just a tech video. Got the opposite. Makes no sense.

I can't believe they would make us wait another year to see the controller.

That press conference was disappointing. I was trying to be unbiased this E3 and give each console a good piece of my time..... Now the only console for me seems to be the PS3 and MAYBE the X360...

Maybe they're gonna improve the power of the Rev before showing it again? Sounded like they weren't even half done making it when talking about their IBM and the like. Wishful thinking?

Well I don't blame you guys for the prospect, but Nintendo dug their own grave to the media when they speculated 3 times the power then the GCN... compared to what Sony and Micro said....

When it comes to how many times more powerful it is... I really could careless, I just know that I saw a wonderful display of power by the PS3. And Nintendo coming out with a ass number like 3 times more powerful.......... It's not bad, but when saying that to the media and press... you kinda dig your own grave.

Many forums are already shafting the Revolution because of that statement.

Why not? we had to wait till the last minute to see gamecube and its controller too.

I think at the first E3 sony and MS showed off thier stuff, nintendo ran a couple tech demos. had to wait till the year after to see the GC.

They're smart. By next year PS3 is gonna be old news. Nintendo has given themselves another year of fan speculation and hype.
