Cube didn't get much 3rd party stuff to begin with. There's the extra "shell" for ported games.

I think it'll be alright.

There's not going to be any problems. There's a simple law of business that everyone knows and that's that people love to buy new, unheard of products. Develeopers will swarm around this device because they know it's going to be raking in piles of cash. Only a loser company wouldn't make it their first priority to make games Revolution compatible. And to those companies, I offer a big giant laugh followed by an "in your face".

At first I thought it would end up in the category of Gamecube/GBA compatibility - A few good games from famous franchises - but in the end not that much of a profitable run.

But now that they're starting this innovation from the get-go, I think it'll be like the Dreamcast. Except successful. Nintendo has the money to back this thing up whereas Sega didn't really, for the Dreamcast.

PS3 and Xbox 360 better be afraid. They're in the same class. There's going to be the Revolution, and the others.

Such is a revolution.

I'm hoping the controller will be like the iPod... the latest gadget that everyone MUST own.

The Revolution controller will become a common item, seen in subways on the way to work, in the backback of a young student persuing high education at his university, and even around the necks of older folks at the local swim club. Video games will be mainstreamed into everyday life. Wives will cut the family's dinner vegetables with a Revolution, dentists will clean their client's teeth with a Revolution, and local firemen will exstinguish a fire with the aid of a Revolution.

A console so fantastic, it will return Nintendo to the glory days of handmade hanafuda cards! Video games around the world will be tossed from their shelves and adopted by trash cans everywhere! Long gone will be the days of children's eyes being illuminated by the flash and bang of their TV screens. And in this wake of realization, the computer and internet shall fall as well. The joy of paper and toys returns! Down with electronics!
