gamedaily.com — Is Nintendo's new console the freshest thing to (soon) hit electronic entertainment?My colleague saw it at TGS. He said he hasn't seen that much laughing and sheer enjoyment with videogames in years.People laughing, joking and not caring what is going on just for the sheer enjoyment of the playing.

I honestly think that delaying Zelda was a good move for Nintendo. I can remember people buying the Nintendo 64 just for Zelda: OoT, and having Zelda as a launch title is not a bad thing.The graphics will be great enough to survive on a next generation console as well.

aniseed - The thing about Nintendo is they have a history of hardware working correctly out-of-the-box even from system launch. I bought my GameCube back in May of 2002, about half a year after the system launched, and it's still working like a champ. It's only crashed on me once, but it was due to dust on the game disc, making it my fault, not the system's. Given all three companies, if I had to go with one on the basis of hardware working from the get-go, Nintendo would be my choice.And everyone else is right. At $200, plus the ability to play all your current GameCube games, plus the ability to download old school games, and brand new games that will be insanely fun with the new controller, this is simply a system that anyone on a budget looking for gaming fun cannot pass up. Being in college, and having to mind my finances, Nintendo's systems simply can't be beat. Hell, I know some kids in the dorms who still play Mario Kart on the N64!

The control scheme seems like an interesting concept and hopefully it will work out for the best. There are many skeptics out there and they have every right to be. However for the most part many developers have found working with the controller very pleasing. Hopefully the $200 dollar price point will become a reality.

Not to mention game prices won't be reaching any $60 marks -_-F YOU MICROSOFT! Those game prices are the EXACT reason I will not purchase an Xbox 360. It's rediculous to buy the fullconsole, let alone buy individual games for the damn thing.

popfrogs:"Companies developing or intending to publish games for the Revolution include: Activision, AQ Interactive, Artdink, Atlus, Blitz Games, Clover Studio, Crossbeam Studios Entertainment, Electronic Arts, Grasshopper Manufacture, Koei, Kojima Productions, Konami, Kuju Entertainment, Midway Games, Namco Bandai, Natsume, N-Space, Inc., Sega, Square Enix, Ubisoft, Tecmo, Pandemic Studios and THQ.",nintendo's games are still top notch. look at the success of the DS, its wifi, etc. the gamecube sold well... largely in part to the japanese market, but where the f**k are you getting your information. they're still making (as its been stated) more money than any other

What about Super Smash Brothers? That game was all about beating the s**t out of your friends. And it was really fun.

With all due respect, I can't see how you think that Red Steel looks like a current generation game. Some people speculate that they may even be renders!
