I wouldn't be surprised. 256 does sound kinda cool.

If Sony could pull off that chip, it would be pretty damn powerful... But I'd prefer to see concrete results first rather than "this is what we hope it'll do". I'm sure come E3 they'll have an idea - they SHOULD.

I guess I did overreact on the d-pad thing... Also, I'm guessing either 1: They don't give a crap what we know, just as long as some people think it's 128 bit, or it has to do with that Mario demo which had that many SM64 Marios running around.... I think it was 128... I keep thinking the game will have to do with Mario and a bunch of clones... it would be interesting if he started out with the SM64 model or even a 3d SMB1 Mario and regained polygons and bits and stuff as he regained more of himselfs. Yeah, like that would ever happen.

If you think about it games dont really need or even use D Pads anymore. With the D-Pad out of there they could make room for something....revolutionary? Im so clever

...heh, but with that logic Super Nintendo would be 32. No?

(it's 16 bits...)

Althought I think that tech demo was called Super Mario 128 becuse of there being 128 Mario's walking around on a globe. And yes I know there is a game in work with that name, but funny how the recycle names like that. (and yes I know SM64x2=SM128 but that's the only way it makes sense )

So the revolution is 255 by that logic?

And uhh... that it's higher in bits dosen't make it sure that it's better in perfomance. Mosts of todays X86 processors are 32 bits, yet they are stronger than a N64.

o.k i will explain how this stuff works

the nintendo 64 did have a 64 bit porcessor but it only had about twenty mhz. the gc has a 128 bit processor but only around 100 mhz. by the way the graphics are also dependent on the producer. gc have got ATI for graphics and the PS2 has Nvidia(not sure about Xbox) but the processor is not everything don't get caght out like i did. (tried to stick n64 prossesor into computer. when got it to work after overclocking only 120mhz)

Uh, the GCN PowerPC processor is 485 MHz... and the tech specs page says nothing about GCN being 128 bits.

I'd personaly like to see where the Pokemon series is going...though, I would rather not have many "new additions" to the current numbers...I'm already hearing that the next gens won't be compatible with the GBA games...so after we bust our ass to collect over 300 Pokemon, we gotta do it all over again, and probably with like 500 new ones ...if anything, I don't want another mess like what happened with the R/S series...they completly wrote the Gold/Silver games out of existance, and thought they mention various aspects of the Johto region, its more than obvious Nintendo is NOT going to run with the idea of rehashing Gold/Silver, and that REALLY bugs me...instead, they stick every redeeming quality left from the game into Emerald and send that out. Yay, now I can catch a 4th Ho-oh, just what I need and Sudowoodo? Its almost like they are purposly trying to avoid having to redo Gold/Silver, they've made it so that if they ever DID release it, it wouldn't have many original ideas...I hope I get proved wrong this year.

Well, a few DS games actually utilize a few things if you have the GBA game inserted. So maybe GBA combitality is possible after all.

I heard stuff like a few extra courses if you have the Pok

Exactly...hell, I missed them thanks to Ruby so much that I traded my awesome team over to stadium 2 and started a new game. I never got through it, and I have a subpar team that dosn't remotly compare to the generic yet awesome setup I had. Though my crystal is still intact, just collecting dust...that's why I want to see Gold refurbished so much. And why I've taken it upon myself to do so until a proper remake is officialy done

Kitten Yiffer I don't know where you're getting 255 but 128 * 2 != 255 ... last time I did basic math that is anyway.

as for my E3 predictions, Microsoft coming out with big stuff, Sony fucking themselves over with terribly engineered system design, and Nintendo seemingly idling in the No. 3 spot with nothing to spectacular, just waiting to pounce.

Feel the Magic has unlockables if you put certain Sega GBA cartridges into the DS.

I think the big race is going to be "Who gets their system out first?" I would not recommend rushing any console out just to compete with the others, but whoever gets theirs out first (is Microsoft the front-runner?) gets a big advantage with the early adopters.

Ok!

Microsoft: New console will cause a big wow since it will have on-line play right out of the box (WIFI enabled) and awesome graphics. Nothing too new further.

Sony: Will focus completely on the PSP. Many games will be announced, one of them being Final Fantasy VII. Only small details will get released of PS3.

Nintendo: Have many things to show. New Zelda for Gamecube is playable. DS gets many new games announced, one of them is a Zelda game. Further on they'll give some scarce details about Revolution, people still won't know what the exact purpose of the console will be.

Of course this is rough speculation...
