If the news turns out to be true, Revolution would be the first Nintendo console to not feature a D-Pad and the A/B button combo. Nintendo has long said that it seeks to innovate with new control mechanisms, as evidenced by the inclusion of a touch screen on the Nintendo DS.
Given the focus of setting the A and B buttons on the GameCube controller apart from the now industry standard four-button layout, it will be interesting to see what new setup Nintendo is planning to bring to the table.
According to Shuukan Diamond, the wait will not be long. The magazine reports that Nintendo will debut GameCube's successor at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles, May 2005.
None of the magazine's claims were substantiated by Nintendo, but given the publication's track record of accurate business reporting since 1913, we'd be surprised if Diamond's claims turned out to be false.
More soon.
That directed to me?Kairi said:I -do- have an open mind, and I?m not saying the innovations are poor. I don?t have the right, nor do you to say the DS?s are good. There aren?t enough games out yet to make that call.
They are however, risky, in the sense they?re very new and much different. And what this article states is the next Nintendo Console is going to tamper with the very fabric of gaming that has done so much for us over the past twenty years. Again?risky, and IMO not the smartest move.
The graphic style in TWW wasn?t an original venture. Others had done cel-shading before. ?Old-school? is part o Nintendo?s appeal, I wouldn?t think you?d condemn it.
Shinin said:Only losers thought that WW would be horrible. And it's not the best game on the GCN. It was too short.
