Look's awesome. It's supposed to be 2 dvd cases wide, will be backwards compatible with the Gamecube and able to play online from the start, will feature wireless controlls, and you'll even be able to download games.

..and the new GameBoy micro

So cute. ^_^
This is not a new handheld, just a addition to the gba and sp. It'll feautre a customizable plate, and is much smaller then the sp and gba. Nothing new really.

...and new Zelda video!!! YAY!

The 360 looks even more like one, and well, the ps3 look's ugly.

I think the ps3 is pretty sweet, although I can't stand the new controller.

Yeah, it's pretty damn small... I can tell it's the Minish Cap though (excellent game by the way).

From what I've seen/heard of it, the Revolution is gonna be awesome... Especially downloading classic Nintendo games and wi-fi capabilities (and it's even been announced the new Super Smash Bros will be wi-fi enabled!

)

I'm really disappointed with nintendo. I've been playing NES and SNES for as long as I can remember, but the game cube sucked and what I've read and seen of the new system has not impressed me at all.

THe revolution will not be throughly revealed to next year sadly. But this is understandable.. since alot of other companies had copied them in the past.
D-Pad = Sega copied, Controller Stick = Dreamcast, PS2, X-Box, Rumble Pack = PS2, X-Box, HandHeld gaming = Neogeo, GameGear, PSP

Nintendo has pretty much carved out gaming and laid down the path for everyone else.

One thing that I love about Nintendo is their commitment to making fun multiplayer games that are easy to learn. Mario Kart, Mario Tennis, Mario Party... all great games for a group of people.

I think it's Reggie Fils-Aime who's holding it in that picture, and I believe that guy has got some pretty big hands...

That's probably how it will look in my hands since the GBA SP was just barely big enough to be comfortable for me. I don't see the point in making it even smaller.

Can't say I'm that into Nintendo anymore. When I was a kid I had NES, then GB, then SNES and thought Nintendo were the greatest... then I got an N64 and soon found myself playing far more on my Playstation.
