my idea is that is will be a large touch screen so that, because the revoluton is so backwards compatible, it will need to do
NINTENDO
SUPER NINTENDO
N64
GAMECUBE
REVOLUTION (of course)
controllers.

Im inclined to think that the controllers will be somewhat customisible for developers.

ehh, it can't be back compatible more than the GC unless it actually has 3 different cartridge slots...

It doesn't look so revolutionary.

The PS3 looks much better.

why couldn't they have just put in a 40 Gig HD...512 Megs is worthless as far as downloadable content

and the PSgrill as you called it wil have hardware as its feature, Rev will have a controller, Oh...I am SO enthralled! Yay, a controller will some how make games that look like crap fun! Yay! :roll:

actually 512M is more than enough to hold any game from the N64...plus save files...it will most likely be upgradable as well...and check ign...your PSGrill is most likely going to cost more than $450...ill stick with the Revolution...

Blame the others. Heh. Anyways, I'll put it back if requested....

Yeah, the hardware may be a little crap, but, hey... they got the games, and the ideas.....

Hopefully they will do better than Sega! :drifter:
