Yes but an i-POD is different. In a game console or hand-held certain software runs on certain proccessors so DS owners will be pissed because they can't play their games on the GBE.

Edit: Well, we've all been waiting for it and it's finally here, IGN has launched it's Revolution Channel, W00T!!!!

The console on the top of the page looks cool too.

You must've not see that PR just posted that XD

ZOMG! 0_0; My my mom JUST got home and ... I have a copy of AC: WW in fron tof me <33 And if I weren't sick, then I'd had to have waited until 3 to get this ;D But I didn't skip school so I could get it early <_<;

Because I'm excited, I'm gonna give you a little beginning play-by-play for 'ya. Now I just have to unwrap it XD

_ _ _ _____ First Impressions _____ _ _ _

Booting Up-
~~ Ok, well, I'm starting up my DS =D Get to the 'ol "control center" view...and Animal Crossing is in the DS card option...with a cute little green leaf, albeit there's a bite out of it. *click*

Starting the Game-
~~ Oooh! Acute little animal voice says "Nintendo" like in the GC version <33 'Touch to Start' *touch*

Getting Settled in-
~~ This little emperor penguin thing that walks around is asking me if I've come to play... Well, yes...yes I have! Heh. I select "New Game" from the menu.I find myself with Kapp'n in a TAXI?! Boy! He sure did have a career switch 0_0; And, so he starts asking me the time...and my name [Paul] which is quite 'burly'. Anyhoo, now you can of course use the touchscreen to type. And you can highlight/copy/paste text ^__^ That feature I hadn't read about~

Now I need to name my town .-. My GC version's name was "Plantore" but I need a different one now...Tokyo! Yeah~ I was gonna name it Japan, but no. XD

Now...after lots of questions and a long ride...I'm in TOKYO BABY!

The Town-
~~ Kapp'n pulled up right in the front of Town Hall, where Pelly talked to me. And showed me that my house is in the top right hand corner of the map ;O I miss the A1 type acres on the map ;~;

Once outside, it looks like I got Cherries in my town! Yum X3; now to walk over to my house... I like the graphics ^^

ugh. my house .-. It has a candle on a box, and a stereo XD Not exactly the best accomidations~ D; Anyways, I wanna play more indepth now...maybe I'll write more later ;D

I'm still wondering what they're going to call it.

I remember this year the last week before E3 seemed the longest to me, it was like an eternity!! And now I have to wait until May, I hope some details leak out before E3, it would be better for Nintendo to unveil it at E3 though to surprise and steal the show. Or we could make it work out for everyone and travel through time.

What do you guys think the secret thing Nintendo is going to unveil about the Revolution?

Bayleef: Yea you can join the club. Welcome to the Nintendo Fan Club.


Nice IGN page. It's about time they got one up and I wish GameSpot would also get one up.

I am far too lazy to reply to all them posts (shocking isn't it? XD).

I really don't know what Nintendo will show off. To me the best thing they could show off that goes with Rev is VR as well as TV (like I said, VR makes some people sick). The controller and a VR headset would be killer.

Ok here's a few links,
http://www.gamespot.com/news/6140790.html
^ We done know about that, but it also has something on Nolan Bushnell (Made Pong), Hideo Kojima (made Metal Gear Solid), and Toru Iwatani (made Pac-Man).

And this from RR.
http://www.revolutionreport.com/articles/read/211
It's about, LoZ: TP could be on the Rev.

Along with PR's Rev idea topic. I'd like to add... Do you guys think LoZ: TP should be on the Revolution?

Here's my views on it
Why it should be: It'd be a great starting game for the Rev. That as well as SSB would make a great jump start game for the Rev. Who wouldn't run out and buy a Rev just to play LoZ: TP?
Why it shouldn't be: TP was said to be the last great CG game. It'd go out with a bang with one of the best games on the GC (the GC came in with SSBM, it went out with LoZ: TP. Both great games). Nintendo will walk away from this gen not looking like a dead set loser because of no great games (the GC has good games, but there's a difference in good and great), and the last great game no one could remember (I can't even remember it).
To me, LoZ: TP should be on the GC. Give Sony and Microsoft one more good kick in the butt for this gen.

LoZ: TP has about 100:1 chance of being on the 'cube. There's no need to worry ourselves about that XD

To get it on the Revolution, they'd have to amp up the graphics [All new graphic models! =O] and subsequently rework the game to have extreme functionality on the Rev's controller. Hehehe.

I already paid off my AC debt XD But that means Nook's shop is closed tomorrow for upgrades .-. How sad~

This is why I think it should and shouldn't:

It should because: What Arcanine said.

Why it shouldn't: What he said........ again.

And this is why I think it won't:

It won't because they would have to make the game to make use of the controller and stuff and that aint cheap. Some of you guys might think "But what about the shell? We could just play it with that." But it wouldn't look good if Nintendo came out with this game and doesn't use the controller properly. Also they have already gave their word that it will be on the Gamecube.

This is my main reason why it shouldn't: WHO CARES!!!!!!

If it is on the Cube it will still be playable on the REV and you save 10 bucks because it's not a next gen game. Also, I heard Nintendo is already making a new LoZ game for the Rev and it might be a launch title.

First off the Nintendo games are not going to go up in price ($59.99) probably unless it is a third party game.

The reason the games even went up was because of rising production costs (because of making the games in HD). However Nintendo isn't a HD Capable system making it cheaper.

and Nintendo planned on making a LoZ Rev game AWHILE ago, that isn't just some "rumor". And LoZ TP probably come out the same time as Rev, that way people buy both systems :P

Pretty smart plan actually

What two systems are you talking about here? I doubt people will buy a Gamecube and a Rev just for one game(or two), unless they know nothing about the Rev other than it plays games.

I also doubt LoZ: TP will be released near Revolution launch and here is why:

1. Nintendo will be (fully) unveiling the Revolution on May 9, 2006 at E3.
2. LoZ: TP will be released some time after March 31, 2006 but still in the first quarter of 2006.

If you look at the two dates then you will see why I don't think it can happen. If Nintendo will be just unveiling the Revolution on May 9th then I think (rumors have also stated) that the Rev will be launched a few months later, if Nintendo does release TP near Revolution launch then the overall delay of TP will have been massive.

Original launch date for LoZ TP: November 14, 2005
Estimated Revolution launch: Thanksgiving 2006

If you look at that, the delay will have been over a year. I doubt Nintendo will keep us waiting that long since some people were already mad that TP was delayed until after March. I also doubt the Rev will be launched immediately after E3.

You know what they say though: "Never say never."

Wow I haven't been here in a while, what've I missed?

The Revolution Console I belive will come out VERY SHORTLY after E3. A month or so, but Nintendo cannot keep their little toys to themselves after they've been uncovered can they?
are you enjoying the time of eve?

rofl do you people not keep your Nintendo news up to date *sighs*

Nintendo Revolution will be released during the week of thanksgiving (as was with Gamecube when it was released).

Nintendo has already confirmed in will NOT be coming out by March (the end of Q4). Nintendo is all about driving sales, (i.e Gameboy Micro another resdesign of the GBA) so don't question that they wouldn't "put it out be Revo" just because of that. People don't buy systems because they got good graphics, people buy games for their quality (like LoZ).

Numerous people bought Gamecube just for Legend Of Zelda games, but of course that was your opinion which in the future will turn to be wrong, because you haven't been following Nintendo like have for all these years.

And also, Nintendo backed up LoZ because they wanted to perfect the game to a greater detail. Which is something no other Game Publisher would do (which is quite true). So believe me Nintendo would not put out LoZ during the summer when sales are basically at their lowest.

Most people buy games in the Winter (around thanksgiving) because it is cold, and you can't go outside to play for very long. So your quote of "Never say Never" is partially correct, because Nintendo has never done the normal thing since n64.

So expect LoZ TP to come out either September or October in 2006, along with the Nintendo Revolution coming out around November 23-26th, 2006.

^I heard the new yesterday, but did not bother posting it here. XD So you can not say that I do not keep up with the latest news. =P

Anyway, I am personally I little dissapointed by the news on the Thanksgiving release date, as I guess the back of my mind still expected a Spring release. Though, now at least I will have more time to save for Rev. games, controllers, et cetera. ^^

Actually, if you read on IGN Rev... Some think that the Revolution might actually be priced at a mere $99 dollars though I find it unlikely.

I doubt it. I am personally betting on a $200 price tag. But even so, the games are fifty dollars, and I may be purchasing multiple games, as wells as extra controllers, so the prices pile up... =P

I know all of the news, I'm just saying Nintendo won't release TP that late, they just won't.

Yes, I saw that 99$ statement from the developers and I'm sure they will release it at 200$, at least they make profit which will keep Nintendo alive longer than the other two, at least Microsoft, I know they have the cash but losing billions everytime is just crazy.

I think that since the DS is one of a kind, they are going to attack PSP.

Yes I think they are going to put in a analog stick, and 3d graphics.

They are going to make it like a mini Gamecube/n64. Maybe even make it a media player which is what PSP is like.

Nah, TP won't be out Q4. Nintendo wants most sells. But do they really need to put it out around Christmas (or a month or so before) to get tons of sells? I think not, I think they'd make way more having it out around May. And here's why.
The Rev will come out then, everyone will be going out and getting that as well as new games. TP will get lots of sells, but it'll be far less then if it came out around May. So Nintendo lets it out around mid of 06 makes a killing on the game (more people on GS want that game more then any other game) and that'll hold them over till the Rev comes out.

The Rev price will be around $200, at least I hope it will. Does anyone really want to buy a system that's 100 bucks? I know Nintendo has the lowest priced stuff, but it'd be like shooting themselves in the foot if it went that low.

And I have to disagree with Blaze's last post. I bet you it'll be more or less the same old DS. Just looks a little different and maybe a built in MP3 player. If they made it a mini-GC (it's already a mini-N64) then it'll have to play different types of games that won't work on the old DS so it'll just be a whole new hand held.
