Ok I'm in... So how much is revolution predicted to cost? I heard $500???
I bet it's not going to be over $250. Nintendo said they want their systems to be in the price range of most kids/teens. So I don't think they are going to go way out like $500 dollars.
I mean not even the PS3 is going to be $500 dollars (I was reading on GS and they said it will be priced below $427 dollars or something like that, round it off to an even number and it will most likely be 400 even like the PS2).

yeah, if we took all our posts and put them on pages, i think we would have over half of the current fan club XD (and not only because we post alot, but also because our posts are so long)
Our posts makes up 2 of the 5 pages, as well as 12 more posts added to them two pages. So yea both of us do make up 1/2 of this thread. XD

o yeah, compared to most of the other game fanclubs, this has done extrememly well.
I was looking at the NDS Fan Club and it took some times to get at least 5 pages. So if this club keeps growing as it is now then it will get large fast.

and there will be a good final fantasy game on the DS - crystal chronicles (which will be online :D ). Whoa - esp XD
Nintendo.com also said they are going to remake FFIII for the Nintendo DS. So that's another Final Fantasy game on the DS (even if it is an old one, but they are going to redo it a little).

In addition, I heard on CNN.com that the price of games for the 3rd Gen. systems will increase by $5, but that was only announced by 3rd parties, i have no idea about official Nintendo games.
If the games are going up then I think they would add an even $10 more to the price (like DS games, they are around 40 dollars where the GBA games are around 30).

Finally, i would like to post this somewhere where people can read it and know a little about the Revolution for themselves. ign.com compiled a FAQ for the Nintendo Revolution, including interviews, as well as ALL updated official announcements and the what not.
Here is the link:
http://cube.ign.com/articles/522/522559p1.html
Nice, I'll read it right after making this post (I saw something like this on IGN a few days ago but it's date was kind of old).

Arcanine, how did you make the button in your siggy a link? I guess making my button a link would attract some attention,
[URL=*(thread URL here)]the button here as well as the IMG tags[/*URL]
Just remove the stars.

Well I told Andy in a PM last night I would join so I am XD.
Well I guess you did stay with your word. XD

thats what i orgionally thought, but the major third party leaders said they would increase $5 (probably a little bit at a time; $10 would be a bit much; but it is wierd that they are using such an odd number; i would say they will just keep bumping it up a little at a time)

I know, 50 is like an even number for games. So to me it may or may not go up.

Q: Is 'Revolution' the final name of Nintendo's new console?

A: No. Nintendo confirmed at E3 2005 that the title 'Revolution' is a codename. A final name for the new console has not yet been selected. It should be noted, however, that the company said the same thing of Nintendo DS, which ultimately proved to be the handheld's official name.

So what do all of you think about this? I think the Revolution will be the final name but what do you guys think if Nintendo changes the name?

I guess i wouldn't mind it. Its much better than the Xbox360 (when the stupid thing isn't even a circle) and is more creative than the PS3. Its a pretty cool name and i wouldn't mind it if they stuck with it. I am more concerned with it living up to that name.

I guess people skipped over this in my super-long post, so i restating it to see what people think about it:
Guess what i saw on ebay? It turns out that if you were "in" with Nintendo that at e3 you got a free DS demo of The Legend of Zelda: The Twilight Princess!!!!! Its going on ebay for over $100 dollars. That is sweet.
kinda weird to quote myself, but i wondered how that would work on the DS. I want it, but there are only 2 copies on ebay and they're expensive. The DS must have better graphics than people think to be able to run it, though.

I hope they stick with the name, the Revolution sounds good and I would hate to see it go.

I didn't miss it. I just didn't reply to it. XD
I wouldn't put much hope in that demo on ebay. I mean here are a few reasons why.
1: ebay has this thing of people selling stuff just to get their name out there or just for fun. Like before the PSP came out someone was selling a PSP there for 1 cent, and it wasn't pics of the PSP they posted, it was the DS. And I've seen and heard of other fake stuff (people buying games and never get anything or getting a box etc).
2: Who in their right mind would sell a demo of a game where there are only a hand full of copies out there? And only Nintendo people could get it so I don't think they would sell it.
3: If Nintendo found out about it then they would contact that person. Because if they were giving out demos then there should be a line on the box that says "Not for resale". So all Nintendo has to do is come along and say "Read that line on the box that says "Not for resale", what you're doing is trying to sell the demo".

I might get NR, if the games are interesting.
And GBM...interesting, but no point of getting one for myself, I love my purple GBA too much to sell it for GBM.
Unless GBM can do something special.

You should get the Rev Austin, it will be good. And if you get it it will be like having all the big systems before it (since you can play all the NES, SNES and N64 games).

Welcome to the club.


And here is the VP of Nintendo talking about stuff from E3 as well as other things.

This is going to sound a little stupid, but what is a fan club? Do you just talk about it? I sort of know what it is.

Question to all: What is your favorite mini games out of all the Mario Parties? My favorite for each game:

1. Running of the Bulb
2. SkateBoard Scamper
3. The Star Boss
4. BookSquirm
5. Hockey
6. BasketBall

These are not for sure my favorite mini games. But it gives you an idea of which ones I like...

My overall favorite would have to be Running of the Bulb in Mario Party 1. But I still like number 6 better. But I remember how much I loved that mini game.

yeah, thats what I first thought, too. However, there were only two copies for sale, and they had a cover there and showed a pic of the game itself. So I searched around to see if they really did give them out at e3, and sure enough, if you were close (they didnt define close) to Nintendo, you got a free copy (I assume if you worked for them or sumtin). I dont know whether or not selling them is illegal, or if Nintendo just gave them away and dont care what you do with them. Point of the matter, though, is that having one of those would be sweet (even if it only was a demo). I would love to see how it looks on the DS. Wish I worked for Nintendo XD

This is going to sound a little stupid, but what is a fan club? Do you just talk about it? I sort of know what it is.
yeah, pretty much. Its a thread where a group of people who like something post about it, and chat with other fans. In the Nintendo Fan Club, we talk about Nintendo, their upcoming news, their systems, games, wish lists, etc. Pretty much anything that has to do with Nintendo.

I wish I could tell you my fav Mini-Game. But I haven't played any Mario Party game in years so I wouldn't know. XD

Well whoever selling the games is stupid then. I mean selling something like that is really stupid.


I just went to GameSpot and here is a little something they put up in their Weekly Rumor hing (here is the page for all the rumors this week).

RUMOR #2: The Nintendo Revolution won't be released until Q4 2006. Source: An article in the latest issue of UK game-trade magazine, MCV.

The official story: "Nintendo does not comment on rumors or speculation."--Nintendo spokesperson.

What we heard: When it showed off a prototype at its pre-E3 press conference last week, Nintendo openly said that its next-generation console wouldn't arrive until 2006. So the question arose: When in 2006? Sony said it is aiming for a spring release with the PlayStation 3, which left Nintendo in a strategic dilemma. Should it go toe-to-toe with the PS3's launch date, or should it wait until the all-important holiday season to build up a critical mass of launch titles? An article in today's MCV indicates that the company has chosen the latter, as it quotes a "senior Nintendo source" as saying, "We're currently looking at mirroring the DS strategy, so Revolution would release in the US first in November, closely followed by Japan. Then we're looking at March 2007 for PAL territories." If true, the MCV article would mean that the Revolution would hit the market six months after the PS3 and a full year after the Xbox 360, which is hardly an envious place to be.

Bogus or not bogus?: Though nothing is official, given MCV's integrity, this is looking like it's not bogus.

I hope it's not in Q4 06. That's way way way too long. I know Nintendo wants a little space from the other systems (when they came out). But letting it out then is stupid. It's going to piss off a lot of people (everyone has to wait till the end of 06 to get the Rev, play the next SSB game, download all the old games etc). I hope they don't let it out at the end of 06.

They won't. In the IGN FAQ, the President of Nintendo said that they would beat Sony's release date, for "it gave Sony an advantage that we were never able to overcome." As PS3 is set for release Spring '06, nintendo will do whatever they can to not be beaten by the PS3. Nintendo is not stupid.

That's what I was thinking. I thought Nintendo said they were going to let it out before the PS3 (then again they said they wasn't going to show the Rev at E3 this year). I hope that Nintendo lets the Rev out maybe Jan of next year. 2 months after the 360 and maybe 3 or 4 months before the PS3.

What does Q4 mean?

Well, what kind of mini games did you like, if you remember.
Q4 means the fourth [font=Verdana]Quarter of the year. Q1, 2 and 3 is the same (Q1 is the first 3 months, Q2 is the 3 after it, Q3 is the next 3 and Q4 is the last 3 of the year).

I really don't remember any of the mini games and I played all the ones on the N64 and 1 or 2 on the GC.

Bobby]So you gonna get the new nintendo or just start a club for it, Andy? XD
You mean the Revolution? Yea I'm getting it and I'll just use this thread (if it lasts XD).

well then, welcome to our little club.

New topic: What do you guys think the graphical capabilities of the Revolution will be? I think it will be as good, if not better, as the PS3. Or at least thats what i hope.

Welcome to the club Blaze.
And at least you got the money to get NP. XD

cmatz0: It's not little anymore. XD

I think it will be good. I don't know if it will be as good as the PS3 since Nintendo does tend to spend more time on the game play then the graphics of the game/system. But I wouldn't be shocked if it was as good as the PS3 (but that KillZone demo is hard to beat). I know it will be better then the 360 and that's good enough for me (being second is better then being last). But we'll see when Nintendo shows a game. It will most likely be Mario 128 to show the stuff it can do with the controller the system etc. I hope they show something other then Mario 128 for graphical power. Because we all know Mario games don't show the graphics of a system. You need something like the PS3's KillZone where you have "people" in the game. A short guy with a red hat, blue overalls and a big nose isn't really something you can say "WOW check out them graphics!", no offence to Mario and Mario fans. But we need something like a Resident Evil game to show the graphics (since Resident Evil made like 4 or 5 games just for the GC, and Resident Evil 4 is one of the biggest hit games, if I remember right it beat out Halo 2).

Welcome to the club (I think) David. XD



I was watching G4 today and they had a recap of E3 (I can't remember the name of the show). And they counted down the top 10 things at E3 they liked the best. I think the new Legend of Zelda game got 4th place, the 360 got 3rd place. And the 1st and 2nd they didn't want to pick (because it was a tie) so they asked people what they liked better. The PS3 or the Revolution. Well as we all know most people liked the PS3 better, but the Revolution got 2nd. So I think it would have took 1st if Nintendo told more about it and showed games that's going to be the Revolution etc. I beat out the 360 and we know very little about it.

Huh, not bad. Ill take 2nd place any day. Then again, after that horrible Microsoft show, it would be embarrassing to be beat by the 360. and that show (I believe) is the Filter: e3 edition (I wanted to see it but forgot about it XD )

Yea I think it was Filter. I myself was kind of shocked that Revolution got 2nd. Most game shows and game sites brush Nintendo off as a kiddie system. And we don't know much about the Revolution. So I didn't think it would get high, but it ended up in 2nd.

actually, g4 is very good in saying that the kiddie-Nintendo is just a untrue bias. they often give Nintendo fair ratings, and always tend to show the more mature side of Nintendo. I have been very pleased with them.
