Shiz.. at the rate that PC chip speeds are rising.. a 5000 mhz chip isnt that far off....So by 2005 to put something like that in a console wont be too expensive...

Anyway.. my thought.. a successor cant sell cubes and if there is a megaton this isnt it.. like someone said in this topic

Wow, what a bunch of BS.

Though, creating your own ROMs would be fun

Wasn't N64's code name Virtual Reality or something?? They wanted to name the machine Ultra 64 but left the Ultra out.

What if the next console has some kind of cable with multiple adapters for old cartridges. Like the one you see for power supplies.

SNES |_|N64
.........NES

capich?

Didn't they announce Project Dolphin quite early though? I remember Rare had acknowledged it in Donkey Dong 64... and still, that was near the middle of it's life.

announcing project dolphin is far from releasing info like this.

pretty much all the pro. dolphin announcment was... was nintendo saying they had teamed up with IBM to make a next generation 128bit console.

all the specs for the gamecube were kept hush hush untill the spaceworld like a year maybe in advance?

They announced Project Dolphin 2 years before at E3. Big reason was because the first console of that generation was coming out in a couple months over in Japan. PS2 was also coming out early that next year in Japan. Can't let you fall behind.

So far all we have heard officially is that there will be another console from Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft. None of them are giving details, because if information like this was true, it gives competition years to develop better hardware.

Default WHA!?

Either this thing is true and Nintendo is going to put all the other platforms in their place or whoever made this up is gonna get hunted down by angry fans.
Keep in mind Nintendo managment has changed recently and maybe the new presisdent is as cunning as his predecessor.
