Not to mention that it will most likely have:
CPU-729MHZ
GPU-243 MHZ
RAM-88

Doesn't sound much, but remember that the chipset and all that is being built from the ground up so performance could still be good.

Personally i dont think it will, they seem to concentrating on new technology more than new games such as the weird controllers etc. I think Xbox 360 and PS3 will storm away with it.

Same can be said about the ps3 and xbox 360. Both are concentrating more on technology (like HD, cell chip, graphics) instead of games. A sony CEO even said one time that the ps3 isn't a gaming machine, but a multi-media center, doesn't that tell you something? However, what I just said and what you said about the revolution isn't true or let's hope not

Yeah i can see what you mean but Microsoft and Sony want the new technology to push the boundries of game gfx etc Nintendo want to make the revolution a learning and unorthodox house entertainment system.

I guess it's only a matter of time till we find out if the revolution controller will benefit, hinder, or keep the gameplay the same. I will withold my judgment until I actually try it out for myself.

the controllers looked wacked up if u ask me. i think the revolution will be pretty good but i hate small controllers. i dunno why but i have also like the bigger controllers better then small ones

Re: Revolution Specs

I applaude them for trying something new and inventive but i think its to much of a change and alot of people are going to find the controllers to weird to use properly and are afraid of change.
