Nintendo Revolution will lack 3rd party support?; according to Nintendo president, maybe.

So what are the chances of you dragging your Revolution there and playing for hours?

Hey Nintendo!

*Points to Xbox Live*

This is how you do online gaming for consoles!

The nintendo was going to go online. However they decided to let sega deal with it, and we all seen how well they set up the online capabilities for the dreamcast.

I was sold for the lack of lag on a 56k telephone modem while playing PSOv2.

..not to mention how fast you could download things to the card, and how fast the browser thing would load pages and stuff.

However I would like to add that I do think xbox live is a great idea and has been set up well. It is one reason why I would get an xbox.

It's one reason why I GOT an X-box.



To go slightly more back on topic, do we have a list of 3rd parties that ARE on the Revolution? (not exact confirmations probably, but so we'll have something)

The revolution will have 3rd party titles. the problem will be that they will be on every other console as well and poorly ported to the rev.

Well let's face it, one of the GameCube's genres should be "PS2 Port".

Oh Nintendo of old, wherefore art thou? The Nintendo that was bold, and... good, and a market leader in the US and Japan? Come to think of it, Ninty has NEVER been a real market leader over here. beaten by the Mega Drive, PS1, Dreamcast, PS2 and Xbox. Not the Saturn though, I don't think.
Saying that, in our UK the Gamecube is the fastest selling games console* in history, during it's first week. Look at it now....

*The fastest selling handheld is the DS.
