Next Mario to be Stereo…Scopic?!?!
NOTE***: The following post is SPECULATION and EXTRAPOLATION based upon available information and industry connections. Please do not take what’s written below as FACT or GOSPEL…otherwise, you do so at your own reputational risk 
Well, after reading through yesterday’s posts and seeing that a couple of you were already pretty damn warm, I figured it was time to put an end to ‘dancing the cooch’ and just give up the goods. As you’ve read in the last couple of posts, I’ve yapped with journalists and developers who are pretty confident regarding some of the Revolution’s features. I had been hearing about these bits and bobs for months, but as a diehard Nintendo fan there was nothing to really spark my passion - especially considering the Cube’s lacklustre software showing several YEARS into its life cycle. But, for the sake of the lazy multitudes, here’s a quick feature recap:
GYROSCOPIC CONTROL: Several sources have suggested that the new control scheme will SUPPORT positional shifts a la Kirby’s Tilt ‘n’ Tumble. This means that not EVERY game will require you to pull a Pisa, but that Nintendo is championing the integration of this feature into at least one of their launch games. Talking with several developers, we agreed that this could work well for navigation games and maybe some sports experiences…but it’s nothing they’d be eager to program for.
TOUCHSCREEN INTEGRATION: I’ve heard from more than one reputable source that either a DS style touchscreen or an actual proprietary PDA device with be part of the new controller. As you discussed yesterday in COMMENTS, this makes sense with Nintendo’s technology partners, the creation of the DS, and Nintendo’s push towards ‘tactile’ experiences. Not a hard thing to program for and most likely a smart move, as Microsoft and PS3 will almost assuredly support some sort of integrated screen/handheld configuration.
WIRELESS: I popped up some clues yesterday regarding what I’ve heard about their wireless plans, and can most assuredly state that the unit will ship with wireless controllers like X-Box 2. But as IGN and others have pointed out, Nintendo’s pushing hard with their wireless technology and partnerships, and my sources support that it will go well beyond mere controller connection and into the realm of some serious data transfer: touchscreen/pda and machine, player-to-player, Rev to DS, Rev to PC, and Rev to Rev (both in-home and with locally based wireless ‘tribes’).
Okay. No major revelations there, but I bet its got you thinking about future game design and interactive potential, yes? Yes…but for me, the first twinge of excitement regarding this machine didn’t come until the final pieces of the long-rumoured DISPLAY puzzle fell into place:
- the IGN boys posted this regarding a patent for Nintendo’s upcoming display technology, which I linked to a few days ago. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to glean that this conceptually portrays a form of 3D image projection.
- at a major film conference called ShoWest just last month, a panel featuring George Lucus, Robert Zemekis, James Cameron, Robert Rodriguez, and a satellite feed from Peter Jackson has studio reps, journalists, and theatre owners seriously jazzed about their plans to integrate cheap digital stereoscopic 3D (like recent IMAX features or the oldschool Captain EO experience at Epcot) into ALL major chains by 2007. Lucas even showed several minutes of the original STAR WARS with remapped visuals that popped off the screen and hovered in front of audience members. When an agent friend of mine was chatting with Rodriguez (there to pump Sin City and discuss his experiences with Spy Kids 3D), he mentioned how they were aware of a game machine beating them to the mainstream 3D market.
- the next day, I contacted another strangely influential industry pal/pundit and shared my thesis purely for fun’s sake (and perhaps some extremely lame bragging rights). The final shiny block of tetrisy knowledge slid into place when he excitedly shared the following - that the Big N had shown a real-time 3D add-on for Gamecube behind closed doors…AT LAST YEAR’S E3. It has since gone MIA. This is the sound of four rows dropping.
More details and potential software discussion to follow…for now, I’m eager to hear YOUR thoughts. How will stereoscopic 3D gaming usher in the ‘Revolution’ that Nintendo has been trumpeting? Will it end up nothing more than a Virtual Boy style gimmick, or will custom 3D glasses become the big fashion accessory of 2007 and beyond? With graphics chip codenames like Hollywoood and Broadway, does this signal Nintendo’s plans to make more cinematic games that mimic the upcoming 3D theatrical experience? If (and, from what I’m hearing, this will be a VERY big IF) Nintendo shows their hand at this year’s E3 by giving everyone at their annual press conference a pair of 3D glasses to wear, will players care?
April 24th, 2005 at 12:07 pm
Im the first ???
Soooo, that was it ??
Im still waiting for the god’s real Revolution Revelation, hurry up
April 24th, 2005 at 12:11 pm
By the way, Iwata san said that Nintendo was developing a way to control ways that would also captivate a mother i.e. making her want to try the system.
I don’t see where is the really atractive thing on your revelation.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:14 pm
Interesting. A lot of people have speculated those Revolution things, but I guess this brings those rumours closer to the truth now.
So that add-on for the GameCube…is that how they’re going to extend its life until the end of 2006? Because right now it seems like Zelda is the last title to come out for the system, unless they have big surprises at E3.
Thanks for this.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:15 pm
OK, well I’ve heard the rumors about the touch screen and the gyroscopic controllers and all that stuff already, so no big suprise there. The 3D add on thing is an obvious suprise there, but I cant get too excited about it until I know more about it. The wireless controllers/wireless connectivity is an excellent idea to make things more efficent and easier. There will still be no telling if this system will be a success for failure until it is completley unvieled and all its features are discussed. All of us Nintendo fans must pray that this system works, because in my mind after the failure of the Gamecube and the lackluster of the DS, this is Nintendo’s last chance to stay off the streets and stay in the home console race.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:17 pm
Sooo…a Cube add-on instead of a completely new console? Hmmm…could be just a demonstration of the technology of course since the rest of Revolution was far from finished by then.
It all sounds cool. Not all that revolutionary (at least not yet), but its got some nice ideas. Although I had hoped that the gyroscopic part would’ve been a bit more advanced instead of just being able to turn and twist the world of character, the complete package might turn out succesful.
It’s a bit worrying to hear that developers aren’t really eager to develop for it though(at least for the gyro part).
April 24th, 2005 at 12:19 pm
That sounds interesting… the touch screen sounds the most promising, as it gives a near unlimited array of control configurations for programmers. I just hope the controller doesn’t come out looking too clunky… I’m looking forward to E3.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:19 pm
Sorry…(and yes, this is the real Brooke) - I made an edit to clarify that the GC 3D add-on has since been shelved…in favour of the Revolution core display system.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:23 pm
This definitely cold be a step in the right direction folks..Think about it… A 3-d game displayed in quality 3-d that is controlled by physical movement…..Does that not sound like a major step towards our science-fiction fantasies of true Virtual Reality??? BTW…Nintendo has tinkered with this concept well before the Virtual Boy..Anybody remember Rad Racer for the NES?
April 24th, 2005 at 12:23 pm
Ah, so it’s for Revolution instead. Well that’s pretty cool and new then. I’m interested.
Only 23 days until the big conference…
April 24th, 2005 at 12:23 pm
Ah right.
BTW, I was kinda planning to posting this on the videogames site I work for, but how can you prove to me that this is all fact and not simply made up? I know you guys are developing a next-gen game, but next to that…it all sounds a bit rumourish to me. Otherwise I could just post these revelations as rumours of course instead of factual information.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:25 pm
Question:
you’d need an add-on to do stereoscopic display? Wouldn’t that be purely a software issue?
Second, with regards to the Lucas et al Digital 3D demos, I believe they didn’t require glasses? They weren’t stereoscopic, IIRC. Though I guess you weren’t drawing direct comparison..but no machine is “beating them to it” in terms of the same type of 3D, unless Nintendo includes a digital projector in every revolution.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:26 pm
sounds good on paper, but we need to see it in action. The REV TO PC is kinda official since one of the nintendo official said so a long time ago. Now, since i have a wireless router, i still don’t imagine the benefits. Could you guys help me to figure it out.
Thanx brooke, there was never a bomb BTW jeje lol
April 24th, 2005 at 12:27 pm
dude the way you tell it it makes it dissapoitning but anyways here you go some clarifiing:
If its touchscreen we’ll have to look down at controller during play makeing it terrible if its gonna be three d we willneed projectors set up everywwhere i mean if its on the machine itself: behind the couch, nope. in the vcr shelf, nope. i heard that the pic they showed there actually is something to do about how we see the picture its self and that they plan to do something using that to make the graphics better.
im quite a fan and noone can convince me that crap like that is gonna be made. unless the japanese really have lost it….
Cheers to the future of gameing!
April 24th, 2005 at 12:29 pm
I like the gyroscope idea, it’s got potential. So does the touch-screen, I guess, although I have more trouble imagining uses for that. As long as both innovations SUPPORT a more traditional control scheme instead of REPLACING one, I’m happy (since the Revolution will be backward-compatible, the controller will have to be mostly conventional). Tech specs matter, so does the wireless stuff- but after staying faithful to Nintendo through four hardware generations, none of these revelations make me less likely to finally stray into the Sony or Microsoft camp.
The 3D projection idea is intriguing but not overwhelming- it’s hard to get excited w/out seeing or experiencing any of these things- the games, and how they use this technology, are what will matter- if third parties balk, and if Nintendo persists in creating increasingly gimmicky software, all the cool hardware in the world won’t make a difference.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:33 pm
Sounds like it could be great for gaming, but like you said yesterday, think the gaming public’s ready for this?
I personally doubt it.
I love Nintendo and I wish they could be on top of the market, but I can’t see the gaming public embracing this right now. To the average Joe gamer, seeing XBox 2 on MTV is going to be a hell of a lot more attractive that some gyroscope/touchscreen/wirless system you need to put 3D glasses on to enjoy.
I give Nintendo mad props for going out on the limb and trying to innovate - but to have your innovations work in the long run, you’ve got to embraced by the general public. If you aren’t, you get no money, third party games aren’t made, and the decline from SNES to N64 to GC will conitnue…
I’m crossing my fingers this won’t happen, but I just really don’t think the Madden-centric gaming community in the US is going to go for this… assuming this is the real deal of course.
Let’s hope I’m wrong.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:41 pm
im gonna go ahead and pray they will still have buttons and triggers, but hopefully add the touch screen in the middle, if you look at the wavebird there is room in the middle, so lets hope for another z button by the L trigger, same a,b,z,y button layout, change the c-stick into another analog stick, and an unlimited amount of buttons on the touch screen, the 3-d is pretty cool as long as the games dont have to be 3-d. the gyroscope is definatly reason enough to develop games for, it just adds another thing to do besides simply pressing buttons. connecting to a pc…damn….the revolution will be a beatiful thing for suuure. but one thing i hope they tell us at E3, that it will have a hard drive.
oh, and GAMECUBE DIDNT FAIL YOU FUCKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 24th, 2005 at 12:42 pm
It sounds futuristic
Nintendo only need to do same Microsoft does in their propaganda:
Telling the people :”this is what you want”
I am in.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:44 pm
Gyroscopic is for Game CUbe, the other futuristic concept is sure for the Revolution,
April 24th, 2005 at 12:52 pm
When did Nintendo stop making the NES?
April 24th, 2005 at 12:52 pm
Nintendo is already in deep trouble,now they want to change how people play videogames?
Why not stick with the same formula that Microsoft and Sony we’re using and will be using with their next-gen consoles?
it won’t be appreciated by the gamers,that’s for sure…
April 24th, 2005 at 12:56 pm
I wouldn’t count on a touch screen on the controller. Iwata already confirmed that it wouldn’t have one back in June.
http://cube.ign.com/articles/522/522136p1.html
And, just to be sure imaginations don’t run in the wrong direction, Iwata stated “We have no intention of making a two screen console akin to the DS.”
The other idead do seem very likely, though.
Have you seen this patent? It’s a Nintendo pattent that, though in illustrations looks like some kind of alternate version of the DK Bongos, in it’s actual patented idea seems like something that would mesh very well with the Gyro idea.

April 24th, 2005 at 12:57 pm
I’m inclined to agree with your friend when I say “sounds good. but…”. I mean, who wouldn’t want to play games in 3D? Imagine how immersive that would be! As Revolution will be backwards compatible and the 3D imagining system was originally conceived as a GameCube add-on, I’m also equally excited by the prospect of being able to play my existing GameCube games in 3D (assuming the technology works that way). Metroid Prime, Resident Evil 4, and the upcoming Legend of Zelda, anyone?
However, at the same time, this 3D imaging system doesn’t exactly change the way we play games as Nintendo has been boasting. It only changes the way we experience them–the way we perceive them. After all, GameCube games don’t offer ‘a new way to play games,’ and this system was originally designed for them. Maybe it will only take one Revolution game demo to prove me wrong–Nintendo’s a clever company when it comes to game design. Who knows how 3D imaging will influence their game development? Another worry, however, is how does this imaging system work? I’m dreading the possibility of glasses, to be the truthful. Just as gaming is starting to come into vogue, I don’t really want Nintendo to make gaming ‘nerdy’ again by requiring players to wear bulky or unfashionable glasses. But then, again, this technology might not even require such monstrosities.
And then there are the other features. Touch-’screen’-like controller function. Sounds cool. Wireless controllers and network. Amazing. Gyroscopic control? I’m a little distressed that no one is really getting exciting about the possibilities here. Brooke said that the developers he had talked to weren’t exactly jumping for the joy over the feature. That it would be good for navigational and *maybe* sports. Yeah, certainly. But what of first person shooters? What if we were to control movement with an analogue stick and ‘looked’ with the controllers tilt sensitivity? Even great dual-analogue FPSs suffer from a lack of precision when compared to PC games such as Half-Life2. The tilt controller would make aiming so much more intuitive, and I suspect that it could ultimately have great benefits for other genres as well. I wouldn’t underestimate gyroscopic control.
But yes, it’s just one feature of many isn’t it? That’s what really excites me, I think–that Revolution could be far more than the sum of its parts. 3D? Wireless? Gyroscopic control? Tactile feedback? By themselves, these are all interesting and ‘cool’ ideas, but if you put them together, you create something very immersive. The 3D puts you in a world, the controller fuctions allow you to interact with that world in a more intuitive way, and wireless lets other people be there with you. Sounds great. But again, as Brooke has continually pointed out, it’s about the games. What Nintendo does with this technology *could* really be revolutionary. Or it could be a joke. We’ll see.
April 24th, 2005 at 12:58 pm
To regain the video game industry from its competitors, Nintendo will simply redefine the video game industry! While Sony and Microsoft will offer “traditional” game machines, Nintendo will offer a “modern” or even “futuristic” game machine!
I’m a gamer; I’m interested. Please, don’t speak for me.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:01 pm
I have to see how all this works. It really bugs me how the gyros and touch are added features. I thought the gyros could be used as some advanced vibrating pack whre you turn the car using an anlogue stick and the controller turns, or if you crash you fell the controller swing around crazily. The touch aint a bad idea, that is just an xtra little thing, and rightfully so. As for this whole 3d thing, it really depends how it works, how the games use it, and what nintendo does. I dont wat to have to wear glasses, but if i do, maybe they can be sleek and comfortable? not just crappy paper glasses. And the games better be good.. IM still leaning to the xbox360, I have to see the rev in action
April 24th, 2005 at 1:10 pm
So about the steroscoping…. the Real Revelation of this entire blog. How in Nintendo’s good name, are they going to get the thing to work without putting evryone in 3D glasses? I say it the REAL REVELATION, because no on seems to undrestand exatly how cool this is going to be. I was messing around with steroscope rendering on my Lightwave 3D program, it is by far a cool intergration to the camera output of that program. This type of thing will add life to existing game forn the Cube if true. HD steroscoping. I smell rereleasing of many spectaular visual films.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:10 pm
I thought this sort of 3D application required a special type of display. I am cautiously pessimistic on this one until I research more about it.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:10 pm
I THINK IT IS A GREAT IDEA! If guys in the movie-business are thinking about using this kinda technology in movies…then I think it will work for gaming also! If there is anyone that can pull it of, I think it is Nintendo! It at least makes them unique as opposed to Microsoft and Sony! I really do not hate having Sony and Microsoft in the marketplace, but it´s the same thing over and over again! Not very willing to take big chances. Tough Sony did come with the Eyetoy…..mad props for that one! If Nintendo can make this work for them….even if it is just the hardcore Nintendo fans…then bring it on. I loved my N64, even if it had a big lack in the 3rd-party games. It had some of the best titels in that generation…and beyond.
Brooke, please post the rest, of what you want to share, quickly…because you are the only one willing to talk about the Revolution, at this point. And E3 is looking to be low on the revolution end! Sorry to kill your social-life just to be in the know
And what are your ideas on what Nintendo is cooking? I mean, you want to know what we are thinking…but what about you? You may have more information…so is it at least worth getting excited over..or should we start thinking about a market-place with no Nintendo?
Do some of you here also think Nintendo dropt the gamecube in favour of the Revolution? They stopt making games for it al long time ago! OK, we have a new Zelda coming…but if you think of it…the N64 had a better support from Nintendo than the Cube has!
April 24th, 2005 at 1:13 pm
This whole thing is a lot of cool things in one. Now, my take on this.
- I don’t believe the stereoscopic thing will work with current video technology. If it’s something that can simply be plugged into your TV and played, then someone would have heard of this by now. The Rev. will either be a portable or semi-portable system. Wouldn’t you think that a projector would be needed for that?
- I don’t care terribly for the idea of gyroscopes in my controllers, but that’s just me. I grew up on Atari, NES, Genesis, SNES and more recently have had N64, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, Gamecube, plus all of the GB, GBC, GBAs, a DS and a PSP. I’m used to my buttons. I like my buttons. Though the bongos are good for a spin once in a while, I’m not ready to give up my gaming heritage for twisting a controller just yet.
-Wireless internet just means that I’ll have to buy a wifi router. I work in IT and am a security freak. I use wired internet for a few very good reasons.
-While Crystal Chronicles and Zelda : 4 swords were awesome games, (and some of my favorites Cube games), I don’t like the idea of having to LOOK at my controller while playing. We’ll see where this goes.
-Backwards compatibility is always a good thing. I probably wouldn’t have gotten the PS2 or DS without it.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:13 pm
My gut feeling is that the Revolution “controller” will actually have two parts…one discrete “node” for each hand with a gyroscopic motion sensor, analog stick, and analog trigger. So the motion control won’t simply be tilt left, tilt right, blah blah blah…the Revolution will track the RELATIVE changes in orientation and acceleration between the two nodes. With two sticks, two triggers, two gyroscopes and full-on wireless (not to mention this supposed 3D), the Revolution really will be amazing.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:15 pm
Well, i just didn’t get the 3D thing. When you guys say that we may need a special glass, are you talking about expensive glasses with special built-in displays or glasses like those of the sega master system?
Plus, the controller with a built in screen sounds to expensive too and just remember that it didn’t work with the Sega Dreamcast.
I was expecting that Rev should feature some sort of revolutionary wi-fi technology, and i still waiting for that, but this time, i don’t think that it’s gonna happen. (sorry for bad grammar)
April 24th, 2005 at 1:19 pm
That shit sucks you fag.
There’s a number of things wrong with your “theory”
Aside from Iwata already stating that touch screens won’t be part of Revolution’s controller, how much do you honestly think this is going to cost?
Jesus, you fanboys will believe anything, won’t you?
April 24th, 2005 at 1:22 pm
Yeah, uh, this is pretty silly.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:25 pm
Morons…this is “speculation” its not proven fact. The only thing tastier about this than one of our theories is that this dude is on the inside of things and has a slightly clearer view of what to expect. Don’t rip em apart for it..For some reason 3-D never crossed my mind even though it seems totally feasible. Also don’t forget that this feature, if a part of it at all, is only 1 of a few “revolutionary” features. Taken alone..yes it seems like a gimmick..but put them together and allow some wiggle room for exactly how Nintendo will design their games around this stuff..and potentially you have an incredible gaming experience. The only thing that sucks is… even if they provide a tech demo of this..How are we to see it w/o actually being at E3.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:26 pm
NOTE: in http://www.snkplaimoreusa.com exist a poll, and rhe question is…
What next generation system would you like to see SNK PLAYMORE games developed for?
if you se the results.. Nintendo Revolution is kicking the ass to PS3 and XBOX360….
and the NDS win to PSP
April 24th, 2005 at 1:28 pm
sorry… i write the site whit an error…

April 24th, 2005 at 1:29 pm
I think that something like this http://www.stereo3d.com/img/aeye2000med.jpg wouldn’t be to bad. Technically wouldn’t it be possible for a fps game to have some type of targeting system on the glasses? Add this to the already immersive idea or gyroscopic aiming and you have a truely different experience. I think that the touch pad could work if they had a fully programable “touch area” to suppliment a traditional button and joystick system. The wireless network would be a much better version of the whole gba-cube connectivity debacle. I just hope they have a recharger for the wireless controls and not just AA bateries.
I can definatly seeing nintendo getting much more “buzz” releasing a semi-virtual reality system than if they just made a system with better specs. And this could potentially attract new users to the market. Just think of all the people who see a revolution at best buy and try on the glasses. WoW it’s 3d. People love futuristic sci-fi movie crap and want to try it.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:34 pm
Why are people uptight about wearing glasses while you play games… Like sitting in your living room playing video games doesn’t look nerdy as it is….WHO CARES?!?!?!?!?! If wearing dorky glasses makes a game immersive…then who cares. Wear the dorky glasses..its not like youll ever wear them out of the house.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:35 pm
I’m pretty sure Nintendo already stated a touchscreen would not be on the controller (although I suppose that could change).
As far as the screen that IGN showed from Nintendo’s patent, I honestly don’t think it’s stereoscopic 3D.
After reading the patent it simply sounds like it’s for improvements on the in-game camera, which zooms in and out depending on the positioning of key figures. Just a way to keep all the main characters on screen at once. Certainly nothing that screams 3D in the stereoscopic sense.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:36 pm
On a rethough, that means that the NRev must have a headset device like the Xbox, only with glasses instead of just the ear peice, and mic.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:42 pm
Didn’t Iwata come out and state that the Rev will NOT include a screen of any type on the controller?
Also, it might be a good idea to actually READ Nintendo’s patent filing instead of making a wild guess based on a single concept sketch.
Read Nintendo’s patent, and see that it makes absolutely no reference to 3d imaging or goggles. Instead it mentions several times that the patent is to help give better perspective when gaming from a standard 2d television.
Sorry, but these guesses seem just as wild and baseless as what every fanboy on every messageboard is saying.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:44 pm
A gyro works essentially like a trackball inside the controller you control through tilting and turning (the turning part is key as tilt sensors are not gyros so they can not sense turning), but I was hoping that the controller would follow the slogan “touching is good, but feeling is better.”
http://www.demo.com/demo2/demonstrators/video/novint.asx
I was hoping for something revolutionary, though this 3D stuff is nice, it is only evolutionary. There must be something else. And it must be related to gameplay rather than the display.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:47 pm
I have my faith in the Big N. It is nice to see they are trying something different. In a way, when it comes down to it, this system may not even be comparable to PS3 or 360, it may define a new field of its own which would be good! Changing how we play games is a good idea and I cant wait to see it (or whatever it turns out to be) at E3.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:50 pm
If this is indeed what revolution will be..and if it is *that* awe inspiring..Then this is exactly what Nintendo should do to make a splash worthy of the type of impact only a tsunami could inflict. So x-box is getting its big MTV debut..big deal.
Nintendo should friggin mail a set of cheap paper 3-d specs with every major newspaper publication around the globe. Also hold a huge block party in times square worthy of New Years. Then simultaneously around the world via satellite feed… Just beam their 3-d demo straight to the masses to see first hand what this could do. I can see it now… A packed time square with nitnendo 3-d streaming out of every megatron digital display with 10,000 people with their hands in their and jaws to the floor. Like I aid..if this is real quality 3-d..I guarantee no one will talk about anything but revolution right through to release. It could put Nintendo right back in the #1 spot over night.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:55 pm
Listen, I think you guys might be confusing Touch screen with Touch pad, which are two very different things altogether.
April 24th, 2005 at 1:57 pm
SnsoryOverload– all kidding aside, that would be a sweet idea.
April 24th, 2005 at 2:00 pm
Ok, let’s just pretend for a minute that Nintendo intends to utilize all of the inovations that Brooke has mentioned.
If some sord of headgear is required, say glasses or whatnot, wouldn’t it make sense to get rid of the tv all together? That would be a great leveler wouldn’t it? Everyone would have the same size screen, and that screen would be a human being’s maximum field of view.
You could put the gyroscope in the visual display device (the glasses) and the movement of your head could dictate what you are looking at. That’s not to say, however, that you’d have to crane your head 360 to look at something behind you. You could always control your actual movement with the hand-held controller.
The funny thing about all this (my) speculation (about virtual reality) is that it’s already been done. You can go to any mall arcade and play virtual reality games using the same technology.
I understand that Brooke hasn’t said anything about virtual reality in his post, but I think that the above suggestions would be more plausible and offer a more immersive gaming experience than just having things “pop off the screen” at you. What about those of us with smaller tvs?
Anyway, I’m none too excited about the whole idea of stereoscopic 3D. 3D glasses make me sick, and 3D motion pictures died out during the 80s (with the exception of Imax, Disney, and Spykids 3D).
What I AM excited about are Nintendo’s future wireless capabilities. I think this will have an enormous impact when the DS goes online later this year. Many gamers aren’t located near hotspots, and allowing them to bypass these would be most appreciated. Apparantly Nintendo has pulled their heads out of their behinds about the whole online gaming thing.
Brooke’s revelations make alot of sense. If they do turn out to be true, the Revolution could have some serious Virtual Boy potential-just as Brooke pointed out. Let’s just hope Nintendo’s learned from past mistakes.

Its not like its out of reach for nintendo to do..they have an untapped 8-billion dollars in the bank..Its about time they start getting in the marketing arena with sony and microsoft. The only reason why Nintendo is behind is solely because of marketing. Theres this common misconception that Nintendo is some tiny little compant compared to the other 2. In truth, Nitnendo is as big as sony and microsoft have ever been. They just don’t flaunt it..its time they start.

Another thing I forgot to mention: 3D stereoscopic games have been available for the PC for a few years now. The googles just keep getting cheaper and cheaper.
But there are reasons why it hasn’t taken the world by storm.
•Most people don’t want to put on a headset every single time they play a game.
•More importantly-turning a game onto stereoscopic modes cuts the framerate in half because it has to keep two different camera views in the framebuffer at all time.
This means in order for Nintendo to make their games run smoothly in 3d mode, they will have to downgrade the graphics considerably. Considering that the XBox 360 (and possibly the PS3) will be more powerful than the Rev, then that will push the big N’s graphics back a further notch from the competition.
April 24th, 2005 at 2:03 pm
What we can completely know for sure is that Nintendo is doing something excitingly different. Despite alienating itself from the rest of the industry, Nintendo is doing something that sets the stage for the next level of gameplay.
Just imagine at this year’s E3 or next - rather than Iwata or Miyamoto introducing the new Nintendo, Mario himself being invited outside of his world and into ours in a way never really thought possible. I revel at the thought.
I understand that this is extreme foresight but, it is at least more plausible now with what we’ve come to know. And third party support? If you were a third party and you knew that you could create a game where the level of interaction is much greater than whats out there now, you’d capitalize.
I think videogames have become an ostracized niche in today’s entertainment industry. Really if you think about it, it makes sense that gaming will herald in a new form of entertainment: Interactive entertainment. Nintendo has been around for quite a long time, and despite sales dropping because of content - you’re bound to see the company show off something different. I welcome that, and I think we should all just anticipate something that delivers an awesome experience.
April 24th, 2005 at 2:05 pm
I would bet that they have more than 8 billion. I believe that is what their(pas t 5 years) console only has mearly made them. There is alot more money than just that.
April 24th, 2005 at 2:13 pm
Whats with all this talk that the revolution wont be as graphically capable as the others. Nintendo has already confirmed that the revolution will be able to output the same quality graphics the PS3 or Xbox360 would. The point they’ve been trying to get across is that graphics alone won’t enhance gameplay.
April 24th, 2005 at 2:15 pm
Nintendo said that there would be no touch screen on the controller.
April 24th, 2005 at 2:15 pm
Just an afterthought:
I believe the reason Nintendo has become so distanced from gamers today is because of their dedication to this project. The reason Nintendo did not endorse online gameplay earlier was because it did not want people to pay for such a service. Wireless networking has come to a point now that it could possibly be facilitated with ease, and a gamer need just turn on his/her Revolution and get online right away. That I think is what any gamer would want. Instant free access. The Nintendo DS is an example of such an endeavor.
The same goes with interface. When the GC was released, its controller received many great reviews. Obviously, a lot of technology and thought went into that product. Even the creators of Xbox used the controller as inspiration for their interpretation of an input device. Well, Nintendo can’t provide any less quality a product.
Time and time again, people in and around Nintendo have stress that graphics are not the only thing left to be improved on the next generation of consoles. And I don’t believe Nintendo intends to forget about graphics. It is important to the whole idea of immersion which is what Nintendo seems to accomplish. As an example, there was a rumour that the next console may utilize a dual core processor. Obviously this is definately a move they would make to output something on a graphical equivalent to the competition and a little something more.
All in all, Nintendo is dynamic, and its evolution is one that aims to improve on what it has already shown. Yes, Nintendo has made some grand mistakes, but under new management its going to be really interesting to see how Nintendo caters to a cynical generation of gamers and a dis-enfranchised group of Nintendo lovers.
April 24th, 2005 at 2:18 pm
As I stated on a previous post, the patents shown do not scream stereoscopic 3d to me. IF it turns out to be 3d then I would be extremely happy…but the thing that concerns me is how would they get it to work on all of the various types of television sets.
Even Imax glasses are not perfect with an obvious flicker on on occassion, and you still get a ghosting effct from time to time. On a television set it will be even harder to get a quality image.
You can get imax style shutter glasses now for home 3d viewing but they have even greater limitations. Once again there’s the annoying flicker/ghosting and just as important, they won’t work on a large number of tv’s .They won’t work on plasma screens,100hz sets or any sets with things such as line doubling. They will only work on a old standard tv.
Hopefully “IF” 3D does come to Revolution then it will be far better than what has been seen before, because anything less than perfection would be off-putting.
Personally I think if we see 3D on any system it will be the next gameboy. Nintendo will need something different to the PSP and a built in 3d screen (without the need for glasses) would be the obvious choice.
April 24th, 2005 at 2:18 pm
That was stupid. You told me in an e-mail that this news would be worth the couple days of wait. Plus I believe Nintendo has stated there wouldn’t be touch screen control. The idea of gyroscopic controllers does sound interesting, though. I wouldn’t suppose Nintendo would stray too far from the current way to play games. I would think that they are trying to add something to their console that will make developers wan’t to make games for the Revolution and have trouble porting to other consoles.
April 24th, 2005 at 2:34 pm
I though that the reason that steroscoping did not catch on in the computer gaming sector was because the devices were bulky?
April 24th, 2005 at 2:36 pm
Wow, what a waste of time. Another gimmick that points to uselessness. Way to pump up useless information that may or may not be true. So how many extra hits did you get to this worthless webpage? Congratulations everyone fell for your clever ruse to pump up awareness of your lame Broken Saints franchise… Why don’t you go stick your head in the toilet and flush.
April 24th, 2005 at 2:37 pm
if you’ve got this right (and from the ign patent it seems pheasable) this could be the most dagerous step in nintendo’s history. It could either see the enormous leap forward in the world of games we all hope for or the end of the only company that has the ability and the courage to make the industry progress. I’m very interested to see how this whole thing turns out i’m also very excited about the prospect of the 3d star wars(went a little off topic at the end there)
April 24th, 2005 at 2:54 pm
Yesterday i Re-read (and listened to the podcast) the word of Iwata at GDC. And, IF all this stereographic thing it’s true, I really don’t think how this would be related to the points that Mr. Iwata mentioned in the conference.
-One thing he said was that “in revolution, the biggest ideas, not th biggest budgets, would win” I think a that a llamative stereographic game would necesarilly have a great budget, because it needs to re-create a great athmosfere, a surrounding enviroment, and good graphics. This thing goes tied with another words of Iwata, I think that he said them last E3 (or maybe wasn’t Iwata, but was on latest E3) when he said that tha level of today graphics it’s great, so, it’s worthless to keep putting the effort on them (By the way… I wasn’t very suprised with MADDEN NEXT GEN… sure, it’s better, but… it’s what we really wanted… in that way i’m with Iwata).
-The other idea was simplicity. Nintendo wants to apeal not only the harcore gamers, also the none gamers (DS’s Nintendogs or Electroplankton). He said that the company wants to create a machine that can make mothers want to play it, not just watching. With that, i would say that this idea is not very llamative for people that is not gamer. For me, that i’m a Nintendo whore, it’s cool, but for others, it’s kind of complicated. Worse if they should use glasses.
Considering that, I’ve got two kinds of feelings: Stereographics it’s way too cool and wonderful. Just imagine an sport game that shows you the whole court and players running like real life… a Zelda that get us into Hyrule like never before… a Metroid when we could actually BE Samus and shoot the hell out tons of space pirates… or a Resident evil, with zombies popping out the screen!!! holy macaronni!
On the other hand, this is far too way of what nintendo has been saying: the “nerdy glasses”, the relatively high costs of this, the Virtual Boy attempt (would they step over the same stone again?), that by the way, means that they are not reinventing the way of playing…
My bets on revolution are har to explain. In some way, are similar to what Oracle said. If I had a free host to upload an image, I would inmediattely draw my idea, because I think that get all Nintendo’s ideas…
Finally… reggie once said that this console, unlike GC, will be “very sexy” in terms of design. What’s the sexy part on cheap cardboard glasses?
April 24th, 2005 at 2:59 pm
Erm, I don’t know about this. I tend to suspect that this is just a way to get more people to visit your blog.
None of this is at all new. It’s just totally recycled from various news sites.
In addition, Iwata has specifically mentioned that Revolution won’t feature a touch screen.
I am personally tired of seeing the same old rumors. Let’s just be content to wait for more details from Nintendo.
April 24th, 2005 at 3:09 pm
i hope everything is true except the touchscreen
April 24th, 2005 at 3:13 pm
Well…if this was just some average Joe’s blog..I’d be quick to scream scam with the others..but I found my way here through IGNcube which is the most reputable source I know of. Needless to say..An endorsement on their front page deserves credibility. I for one believe you.
April 24th, 2005 at 3:13 pm
A few of the ideas sound promising (especially the 3D display)….but the touchscreen controller is scaring me. I dont know about anyone else…but I like to feel the buttons on the face of the controller when I’m pklaying so I dont have to look down.
April 24th, 2005 at 3:29 pm
How on earth does one arrive at stereoscopic 3D from that patent? It doesn’t sound like anyone actually bothered to read it.
April 24th, 2005 at 3:34 pm
you dont have to look down, you could bring the controller up to your face you know!!
and to everyone thats mad, this is all speculation with higher then usual probability of being true.
off the subject, i want a DS, id much rather have a ds then a psp, simply because it has 2 screens, 2 screens!!!! 2 SCREENS. TWO. SCREENS. THATS TWO FOLKS.
christmas 2006???????????????????????? FUUUUUCK THATS a lot of months away
April 24th, 2005 at 3:59 pm
Well I think that the steroscoping part has to be inglarged expained. The blog says that the five directors were talking about a digital steroscoping device, that would rebreath life into their movies of the past and of the future, and also offer an edge in experince over HD TV sets. but when I went to the site linking from the blog, Lucas had said that he would have loved to redo his EP III movie in 3D with this tech, untill he found out that it would add 5 million to his budget. Guess he’ll wait for the return off of the movie, he has a year after all. Another thing the site was talking about was that the industy would not be ready untill 2007, and aparently, this device is something that is cost effetive and cheap to include. That
would go with Rods commments that a Game machine may jump the gun ahead of them and implement the tech in their next machine -before 2007. So it the way the tech works that has to be explained, ‘ cause my limited imagination can only think about glasses. Jaws 3D… get it.
April 24th, 2005 at 4:07 pm
I’ve got my awful drawings ready!!!!111!!!1111!!11!!1!!!1
I need to upload them into a freeserver, i think that they’ll be ready tomorrow… my model incorporates a gyroscope AND a touch pad… not a touch screen. With touch pad i refer to a fully customizable touch screen, but jsut to arrange buttons, that will be touched by your fingers… It’s no so difficult… come on, you don’t need to be watching all the time… I don’t need to see the button “A” when I have to press it. It’s just matter of memory and putting your fingers in the good direction.
Just wait until i can show you my horrible drawings and you will all understand
April 24th, 2005 at 4:09 pm
poopy thinks nintendo needs more than 3d. 3d colision detection based on and i toy like camera and controler would be nicer. Poopy know this.

April 24th, 2005 at 4:10 pm
The patent merely describes how to draw the screen for different viewing angles. Ever see 4 people huddled around the N64 playing Golden Eye? Now if Revolution knew where the controller was relative to the screen, it could warp the quadrant view of that player so that even though he is 45 degrees offset from center, his view would be straight on.
Put it all together.
Also, a touch pad doesn’t require a screen. Touchpads have been around since atleast the 70’s. A touch pad overlay to a screen is what the DS has. You don’t need a screen underneath. So you could have the touchpad move a mouse pointer that would show up on the screen. That would fix FPS aiming. Nothing new there.
Put it all together.
Also, a gyroscope could turn a controller into a steering wheel. That would save you the money there. Heck a flight-stick.
Put it all together.
A wireless headset. Ala XBOX Live! A simple addon.
Put it all together.
Broadcom features seamless wireless security across multiple devices.
Put it all together.
What is revolutionary is the presentation not the technology.
April 24th, 2005 at 4:23 pm
well, it sounds cool but I still don’t understand how you could apply this to typical games. It just seems so weird to think of yourself being in a Zelda game and fighting bad guys. How could digital, made-up things become virtual reality? I’ve also heard about the Revolution being able to feel things at http://www.demo.com/demo2/demonstrators/novint.html it all looks pretty cool, but how could they ever make it into RPG format?
April 24th, 2005 at 5:10 pm
The 3D display idea has always been around Nintendo, but has never really hit off, as much as i’d like to see it, i personally can’t see it happening (not right now anyway), there’s still a long way to go before 3D display will be capable with a decent display and not being mega expensive.
Nintendo’s problem is that they don’t listen to what people want and they try to force things onto people (and not always being right about it). Gamecube failed because it wasn’t a multi-media system unlike the PS2 and Xbox. Online gaming was ignored because they thought it wouldnt be popular. Bad judgements which cost Nintendo. This time around they have to follow the market, give people what they want whilst also adding new elements, not forcing people a new concept and nothing the consumers were looking for as extras.
I’m afriad to say it, but Nintendo need to make their consoles easy to mod. I’m no fan of piracy, but it’s hard to ignore the fact that easily moddable consoles sell more (PSOne, PStwo, Xbox etc.), it was even rumoured that Sony themselves brought the idea to the public that modding the console was possible (some people think far fetched, but it’s certainly helped them win the console wars)
April 24th, 2005 at 5:14 pm
You’re a hack, this shit’s fake.
Iwata has said we’ve been thinking too hard about it.
Also it’s supposed to be “old technology that’s never been applied to gaming”
WAY TO SCORE MORE FREE TRAFFIC TO UR SITE D00DER.
April 24th, 2005 at 5:36 pm
FYI, a couple of you keep talking about this being a ‘traffic grab’…well, considering that we already average 5K visitors per day, what’s the big whoop about doubling that for 3 days with folks who we’re well aware won’t be hanging around long afterwards?
April 24th, 2005 at 5:52 pm
hehehe, looks like the admin just pWWned all of your stupid asses.
I believe you Brooke, there is no reason not to. However this is America and over, way over, 50% of Americans are blind rats and only follow the sent of cheese…stinky downright devilish rotten cheese.
I am excited to see how this pans out, I called one of my contacts to see what was going on and the damn bastard had gotten fired so that really set the tone for my day.
I really truly hope that all of this is for real, to those who have problems go ahead and have your problems all i know is that I will be enjoying my self and be deeply immersed into my games.
April 24th, 2005 at 5:53 pm
John G, Iwata never said those things. Ever. They were said by some random person on a nintendo board. WAY TO GET YOUR QUOTES MIXED UP D00DER.
April 24th, 2005 at 5:55 pm
Nintendo has already said that the console will be able to connect to a computer monitor and that there wont be any touch screens on the controllers.
April 24th, 2005 at 6:06 pm
So Brooke, the question is: If your guesses turn out to be correct, would you have any intention of developing for this thing? Or would the whole “brave new world” bit be too much of an incovenience?
April 24th, 2005 at 6:17 pm
How about everyone just shuts the hell up and stop sounding like a bunch of idiots, and just wait until E3 so we can see whats true and whats false.
April 24th, 2005 at 6:33 pm
Wow. Nothing like speculations on a popular topic to bring out the ever-so-skeptical assholes. ^_^ Note the words ‘SPECULATION and EXTRAPOLATION’ right at the beginning of the post. The man got some insight, pieced the puzzle together in some very probable scenarios, and wanted to share his thoughts (which hold much higher merit than the tactless commenters in here, you should know who a person is before you bash them). There’s nothing wrong with that.
I am glad you shared your thoughts, Brooke. ^_^ I think that all the ideas sound interesting. Personally, I would love to see the gyroscope worked into the controller. Just think about how much fun it would be playing Mario Cart with the paddle acting as a steering wheel. I’m definately one who moves the controller around while I play, and this idea would make it all the better. ^_^
I’m also really liking the thought of it going wireless. The less cords to get in the way, the better. There might also be a possibility then of having more than 4 players to a system if you don’t need to worry about ports. (Not sure on the technicals behind that, but it’s an interesting thought.) I’m hoping to make my laptop wireless eventually, when I can get some money. (Right now, when I hook everything up, camera, tablet, printer, etc, etc, etc… there’s so many wires and gadgets it’s like Raimi’s home setup. lol ^_^) I’d also really like to see the Big N tap into wireless internet play, especially if they can do it without charging monthly fees.
For the 3d thought, I’d like to see it happen. One of the above posts made mention of having glasses that showed the individual player the play field from their point of view. Now that would kick ass. And I’d imagine that it would be possible. They already have the games on the GC that integrate the GBA to show separate POVs of the field, so if they master the 3d technology without falling back into the Virtual Boy area, then I could see it as a very intriguing possibility. And for the glasses…I wear glasses everyday, who cares? If it makes the gaming experience more enjoyable, pass ‘em over!
The ideas are great, and hopefully the games will meet the technology. Can’t wait to see if you’re on the mark, B! ^_^

Nintendo never said they wouldn’t include a touch screen on the Revolution, they said it wouldn’t be a system like the DS, which could mean anything, including to quench the potential Revolution portability rumors.
April 24th, 2005 at 7:10 pm
That’s right Mgobue… I also remember that somebody said that the DS should be a clue of what we should expect from Revolution, so the Touch pad it’s my secure bet… Just wait until the moderartor accepts my prevous post, an then you will see my Revolution idea.
April 24th, 2005 at 7:15 pm
So, it hasn’t been ruled out yet to have a treadmill-like device attached to it. If you can add depth perception, what stops you from having to walk, jump, or silly walk your avatar through the game? As for the gloves, that would have been great to translate some of the interactive aspects for Myst 4 like trying to pull on chains to calibrate a machine or turning the pages themselves would be sensitive on how much torque you could apply with your mouse.

PLEASE BARE WITH ME AS I AM ONLY USING MY VERY LITTLE KNOWLEGE OF THINGS TO COME UP WITH A THIN OUTLINE FOR WHAT COULD BE REVOLUTIONARY”
While I am no expert, I do remember my IT days in the Navy. Nothing the sort of 3d gaming ever came up in my training. However I do remember a technology called “Tempest”, which allowed infomation to be pulled from a screen (computer or Tv) using the screens frequency and then rebroadcast in some kinda flux. Since all Tv’s and Monitors use a freq. of 60hrz for the screen, Imagine if you will a full duplex transmission between the tv and the Revolution on the freq of 60hrz:
Revolution hooked up to the TV using Traditional methods, i.e. RCA, s-video, Componet Cables:
Now Imagine another signal from the Tv srceen in 60hrz that the Revolution picks up and then Retransmittis 0.005sec later that the Tv tries to pick up:
Last, insted of glasses, you would use a special light bulb that you could pulg in to any light fixture to see the second image being sent from the Rev. back to the screen on the same freq of 60hz only a tad later and in flux, kinda like a hologram and BAM, 3D gaming on a regular Tv with no glasses.
Now I know that has many, many holes and I’m probably missing some key facts to using “tempest” but with the limited info and rumors we have, this is the only crap I could come up with. Feel free to inject sense into this maddness of a post.
PLEASE BARE WITH ME AS I AM ONLY USING MY VERY LITTLE KNOWLEGE OF THINGS TO COME UP WITH A THIN OUTLINE FOR WHAT COULD BE REVOLUTIONARY”
April 24th, 2005 at 7:31 pm
well the spaming has started so I’m out. thankd brooke for sharing your thoughts. I don’t know how it could all work together to make a truly unique gaming experince, but then again I’m not the brightest upto date man in technology. I just hope that whatever Nintnedo delivers it special. I want to leave you all with a comment Iwata say a while ago.
“…There is the TV set, here is the controller, (held) in both hands. We should not hesitate to crash through the system Nintendo itself created…”
- Satoru Iwata
April 24th, 2005 at 7:36 pm
WOW! You know how to copy and paste! Now that’s revolutionary!
(Ohhhhhhh, can you smell the sarcasm?)
April 24th, 2005 at 7:56 pm
Nintendo has confirmed that there will not be two (or more) screens (or touch screens) for the revolution either on the controller or on the system.
As for the Gyroscopics, the possibilities are endless. Imagine a FPS with dual wielding. You walk by tilting, and aim each gun individually.
April 24th, 2005 at 7:57 pm
ALL OF YOU STOP.
Nintendo is a company.
They are releasing a product.
You either buy it or you don’t.
If you have emotional attachments to companies’ products then see a phychiatrist.
Thankfully Nintendo CEO’s don’t read this blabber.
Most of you will eventually buy a revolution if you do or don’t like the ideas presented now.
Play some games now. Stop looking into the future, and it will come sooner than you think.
April 24th, 2005 at 8:09 pm
That’s just great. I hated those 3D two colour glasses when I was younger because they wouldn’t work right if I put them in front of my real glasses. I don’t want the next system to be unplayable because I am lacking in perfect vision.
April 24th, 2005 at 8:17 pm
3-D……more like 4-D, I heard that nintendo is creating a new dimension just for their new console. Now THAT is a revolution!
April 24th, 2005 at 8:24 pm
Interesting. Very Interesting. I don’t think that it is gonna be a gamecube add on, but an entirely seperate system. Maybe the addon was an initial idea, but scrapped to be later put in a new system. If the 3D is what the big secret is, then nintendo better package it right, cause it will either sink or swim. It’s gonna be very interesting to see what they do for games. I don’t care what anybody says, I’m excited. Oh, and just some food for thought, remember that the revolution is going to be backward compatible, does that mean my gamecube games would be in 3D? Hmmm…..
April 24th, 2005 at 8:30 pm
…4-d is the three dimensions of space and 1 dimension of time.
As for my reaction to the news Brooke posted… i find some of it doubtful… but I still find it interesting. And it is just something that happens this close to E3, or have people not noticed that from previous years?
Assholes who have to rant and act like morons because it makes them feel superior need to just not use the internet… it would make all of our lives easier and more enjoyable.
Also… if you’re going to quote something on any forum… please double check your facts before you misquote someone. For instance, no Nintendo official has ever said “It’s nothing “new” technically speaking. It’s just something that hasn’t really been applied to video games yet.” That was a ‘inside source’ that someone claimed to have on a forum.
April 24th, 2005 at 8:49 pm
One more thing…. about the gaming. If infact we will see 3D, that does not necessarily mean geaky red/blue glasses. There is a style of 3D that uses speedy alternating dark/light to allow the viewer to see a quality 3D image. Check out eDimensional.com for further details. Everyone can say what they want about it, but it’s all speculation for now. If this thing does hit real big, especially at E3, then 3rd party developers are gonna be all over this like white on rice, on a paper plate, in a snow storm. The posibiities are endless. 3D - The tackles in Madden, the explosions in StarFox, the monsters in Zelda, Three-Dimensional, Dolby 5.1 surround sound. Think about it people. I already have goosebumps.

April 24th, 2005 at 9:16 pm
Not to burst anyone’s bubble… since this is just my opinion, but…
I REALLY hope that 3d glasses are not incorporated. I don’t care so much about looking nerdy as I do about feeling dizzy, getting a headache, or just having that overall disoriented feeling. If anyone’s sat through a 2+ hour movie with 3d glasses on, you know what I mean. After a while you get fairly used to the 3d effect, but then when it’s time for the glasses to come off, getting back to normal vision takes some adjusting. I know some people won’t be bothered by this kind of thing at all, but personally I hope 3d glasses won’t be part of the equation.
As towards the “nerdiness” aspect of 3d glasses… I’m sure a lot of people will be turned off by this. I don’t think that image will help bolster sales for Nintendo at all, unless something truly extraordinary beyond what we’ve speculated is done with this idea.
April 24th, 2005 at 9:20 pm
My name says my position on this. Anyways…would we really need glasses to veiw 3D?
What if Rev. sent out some sort of light eg. Artoo-Deetoo’s holographic message recorder style(or imagine a projector). and when that light hits the T.V, it creates some sort of projection infront of the T.V? The projection is about the same size as your T.V (or maybe bigger) and it lays it infront of you, so that you can have people seeing what you see but in 3D.
I only thought about this because it seems to make sense if you can see the thing’s going on from any veiw (the 2D veiwing patent) and it presents unparrelled vewing options. You can rotate the hologram using a camera stick, and instead of the limited veiw of the T.V, it rotates the 3D hologram to your liking.
I probably havent explained it as well as I would like too have, but just imagine the console aimed @ your T.V, the two lights (console and T.V) hit each other just infront of the T.V, and you see a 3D veiw of the screen, so that you can see something behind you, or infront, or to the sides.
BTW. I am aware that for this theory i probably ignored or bent every law of physics or light or whatever, but hey, it’s only a guess, right?
April 25th, 2005 at 12:08 am
One thing that Im a little worried about is the fact that as of right now Revolution will likely come out about X-mas 2006. So that leaves more than a year to go before we are blessed with a new system and yet it seems like the only big game on the horizen is Zelda. Unless Nintendo has some big things to unveil at E3 than we are looking at a serious drought ahead of us

well, I once saw a technic that made from 3D images real 3D figures. So if you look to your display and your special glasses are pointed at the transmitter you wil see depth in you screen, but that kind of glasses kost over $1000
April 25th, 2005 at 2:51 am
There’s no good reason why nintendo should make handcontrollers with tilt sensors and touchscreens. And do you know why? The more technology the HANDCONTROLLER posess, the more expensive the multiplayer experience will be.. and I don’t think anyone would like to pay, let’s say, a good 60-90$ for a handcontroller.
April 25th, 2005 at 3:52 am
I really think you should keep your mouth closed. We must wait for the games before starting to say “this can’t work”…because that’s what Sony and Microsoft want. Until it is reveled, we just can’t figure what this is really gonna be, so AT LEAST give them a chance.
Do it for Nintendo; don’t feed pro-Sony’s propaganda…
April 25th, 2005 at 4:12 am
This doesn’t jibe with what I’ve heard. I guess we will all have to wait and see.
April 25th, 2005 at 4:25 am
Yeah,, if this is it.. I’ve gone from optimistic to depressed in one hell of a hurry.
April 25th, 2005 at 4:56 am
it’s fucking awsome!!!!
you get 3d asses 3d boobs and with novint falcon you can feel them
o fucking yyyyeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh
nintendo is the power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they rule the fucking world all you sissies: what if what that it doens’t work
fuck you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 25th, 2005 at 6:36 am
I don’t like the way you built this up into something big that you got people waiting for, just to get more hits on your site I suppose. You could have just posted your “speculation” first up.

I don’t know why you guys think that glasses are needed for this. Sharp has released several LCD displays that project 3d images and holographic technology has been developed over the years and has been projected to be used in the medical field as well as other areas. This could be possible to use in the console. Its not impossible to project a 3d image its just making sure it can be see from a variety of angles.
April 25th, 2005 at 7:58 am
nintendo said that they might alienate publishers for their next system. This might be true. It could be that the next publishers for the revolution would first come from hollywood studio’s such Dreamworks, Disney, Fox, Lucast Arts ect ect. hence their chips names Hollywood and broadway. Hollywood studios would take full advantage of the 3D stereo scopic technology. It would only be later when the rest of video game publishers will follow suit. what do yall think good idea or bad idea?????
April 25th, 2005 at 7:59 am
The author of this article needs to read the original Nintendo patent more closely, or have a technically apt friend look over it. There is no mention of 3D projection technology. You are basing your speculation on something very tenuous and frankly incorrect.
The patent details code that allows a 3D camera system, like you’d see in just about any modern game, to keep multiple players on-screen at the same time. This sort of system is already used in stuff like Mario Party where you have multiple players controlling multiple 3D characters on screen at once, and the camera shifts to keep them all in the frame.
If this signals anything significant for Nintendo at all - which I doubt - it might mean they’re developing a new franchise, maybe a Diablo-like game where players run around Gauntlet-style.
You seem to have dismissed the truly significant feature, which is gyroscopic control. In addition to racing games, a tilt control can be used to control a first person view, a third person chase camera, or move a PC-like mouse cursor much more easily than you can with an analog stick. If developers honestly can’t think of anything that would be useful for, they get an F minus in game design.

The most revolutionary things are first skepticized, then realized, modernized, then taken for granted.
The Revolution is ALREADY a success, and has yet to make its debut.
Nintendo will ALWAYS play a part in the console wars. Unlike Sony and Microsoft, Nintendo paid their dues, and are debt-free. GameCube didn’t fail, and it’s not over yet either, just because it hasn’t done as well as other consoles, doesn’t mean they didn’t profit; they just didn’t profit as much as they had hoped.
With every Revolution comes an Evolution…
Starting early next year, the video-gaming experience will never be the same.
.r.e.v.o.l.u.t.i.o.n.
April 25th, 2005 at 8:45 am
Err…I didn’t read this whole thing, but first off, Nintendo said there will be NO touch screen on the controller. Second, the thing is backwards compatible with NGC, so it will have at least that many buttons. As for the whole gyroscopic thing, I think he’s just feeding into the hype that’s been building over it. Just wait until e3 people, it’s not that far away.
April 25th, 2005 at 8:57 am
whoa kiddies and john goats, i think you guys pretty pethetic. get out of here and go to you xbox and ps blogs, if ever a thing exists that is most intruiging and has loyal fans that are as compasionate as us nintendo loyalist
April 25th, 2005 at 9:14 am
I’ve been a Nintendo fan for more years than most, yet if this is the REVOLUTION we have all been waiting for, color me disappointed.
April 25th, 2005 at 10:26 am
wow, i’m really feelin nintendo. I just watched the Next Gen Madden and all i could think of is “that’s it!” sure the graphics were ausome, but thats it. Nintendo is on par on where next gen of gaming should be, graphics are good, but gameplay is what matters.
April 25th, 2005 at 10:36 am
I think Nintendo still keeping quiet on some stuff that could be what is really revolutionary. I personally have to say that gaming has gotten boring. Games are all the same and need to be refreshed. You play one football game you have played them all, same with all the other genres. This is why Nintendo is trying to innovate because in time the industry will become stagnant. Just look at the crap the movie industry has been giving us. Rehash after rehash and they are starting to make less revenue over the years. Nintendo is doing the right thing the problem is that gamers are too stupid to notice any differences in games. They just take what is “cool” so just slap some porn or ultra slick violence and no gameplay into a game and you have a winner. Just look at GTA. Personally I think its a stupid boring game where you just do same thing over and over. The only reason its popular is cause of the braindead public that thinks it is cool to steal cars and kill people. They are so ignorant to the fact that if that happened to them that they would become mentally unstable.
April 25th, 2005 at 10:58 am
Holy crap. So many messages I couldn’t even freak’n read through them all. Ok, the gyroscopic thing sounds cool, but I’m hoping it won’t be the main feature. It’ll work great for some games, but it just simply won’t work for others. If SEGA made a Super Monkey Ball game using this technology it would be great. But can you imagine trying to play Zelda like that? And Nintendo said there were no CURRENT plans to put a screen on the controller or console. Since they’re still tossing ideas around it could still end up in the finished product. The thing that has me most interested is the whole wireless thing. Although I hope it won’t require a wireless router, because I have dial-up.
April 25th, 2005 at 11:05 am
@tomic unless its WiMax then you are gonna be outta luck. I don’t know of any wireless technology that can be used throughout the world meaning no limits to how far you are unless they plan on using some sort of high speed radio frequency or something though I am not expert in wireless technology.
April 25th, 2005 at 11:21 am
@tomic, using a gyroscopic controller to play Zelda would work fine. The camera adjustment you’d normally do with the C stick / C buttons can be done by tilting the controller. Your right thumb would never have to leave the face buttons, and you’d have to fiddle with camera controls a lot less.
Pushing or pulling crates in dungeons could use tilting as well. Honestly people, it doesn’t take that much imagination to understand how this would improve upon existing control schemes.
April 25th, 2005 at 11:29 am
umm boner. ok well i think that will be sweet. and thats coming frm an unbiased opinion. im sick of the “norm” in games and i think old nintys going for something new which is cool. i hope theres like Super Mario 3-2 or Super Mario 6 considering it`s the sixth mario game. i am such a bad ass. like a remake of 3 would be great in 3d. screw the cap, the coon tail and crap is fine with me. and i liked 64 but no fire power, just kick it old school Shigeru!!!
April 25th, 2005 at 12:03 pm
I can’t even watch 3D movies, they give me a headache. They are just hard to focus on. Anticipation for Revolution = cut in half.
April 25th, 2005 at 12:25 pm
i have to agree with max. FPS games already give me a freaken headache thats why i only rent them
April 25th, 2005 at 12:37 pm
Well, if you guys are so disappointed with Brooke’s speculations (I’m not), then why don’t you guys make up your own speculations? Why not do some fancy sketches and Photoshop them? Jeez, stop whining. If you don’t like the Revolution, then don’t buy it.
People were disappointed too when they found out about Metroid Prime being played through first-person….then look at how it turned out.
Chill and Cheers
April 25th, 2005 at 1:00 pm
Sounds interesting. Resident Evil would be cool game to play in 3D. Zombies popping out nowhere right in frint of yours an shit…lots of possiblities…
April 25th, 2005 at 1:50 pm
3D - As stated above, the tec. is not related to 3D. Could be possible but don’t think it would make your mother ask you to try that shit (as stated by nintendo).
Wi fi tec - Fact
Gyro - Could be
Touch screen - Iwata said no (thanks god)
“Feeling” tec. - http://www.demo.com/demo2/demonstrators/novint.html Could be… in line with “….feeling is better” statement
April 25th, 2005 at 2:30 pm
Interesting… especially that bit on a peripheral for cube… Iwata was speaking about a peripheral that could have increased tha time-life of gamecube…. mmmh….
April 25th, 2005 at 6:23 pm
Did anybody ever see the video kicking around the net that showed off 3d objects projected into a real space that had been rumored to be connected to Nintendo? Seems a tiny bit more relevant now…. interesting stuff. Curious how much of it pans out.
April 25th, 2005 at 7:37 pm
i’ve read somewhere about something that could project 3D objects without the need for glasses. if so then the revolution would not require gamers to wear one. horayyy
April 25th, 2005 at 9:06 pm
Now connect all of that up with small gyro chips and wireless transmitters in the 3D glasses that allow you to have full motion head tracking. NOW you have a Revolution.
April 25th, 2005 at 9:09 pm
I really don’t know what to think about the concept of 3D, but I have some ideas why if it were to be true, it wouldn’t require glasses.
1. Added expense
2. Something to lose/break
3. Spectators would not be able to enjoy the action “on-screen.”
I’m surprised only one person mentioned this, but Sharp has already developed computer displays (initially used on their laptop LCD screens) that can project 3D without need for any sort of glasses. And anyone who’s read The Bible (aka David Sheff’s Game Over) knows Nintendo has connections at Sharp running all the way before they hit it big in the home video game industry. Intriguing, ne?
The only thing I’m willing to swear by is the matter of touch screen/pad controllers. Nintendo is ALL about intuitive control, and these control methods provide no tactile feedback. Remember how much it sucked to use the virtual analog stick on the DS? Completely unintuitive. If they are, in fact, intending on providing a customizable control scheme, I predict it will be some sort of flexible membrane where bumps can programmed to rise upward, forming buttons. For a makeshift example of what I am talking about, think about those “executive toys” with the hundreds of little pins that you can press onto your face/hand/etc and leave an imprint.
April 25th, 2005 at 10:14 pm
as long as they bring Pilotwings back I’m Happy.
where is the info on that phrase you mentioned “touching is good, feelin is better” who said that?
April 26th, 2005 at 12:20 am
Just for shits and giggles; my interpretation:
There is a technique to create 3D on normal screens without the need for a polarized filter (glasses, etc.). My understanding (and forgive me if I am wrong) is that traditional 3D techniques have an interlaced image that is filtered by glasses to create depth. The red and blue glasses filter the interlaced image so that each eye sees a different picture, causing the brain to combine the two perspectives creating 3D.
A way to create 3D without using filters is to quickly (not just quickly, like double the norm, so I assume 120 fps) flicker between two images from different perspectives. This confuses your brain into seeing 3D, and I believe this technique works within the realms of Nintendo’s vague patent. If there is 3D, I imagine it will be done like this.
Why is this not already used in movies? I don’t know, but it could be that film projectors do not have a fast enough frame rate to support it, which would explain the digital projecter that Lucas and company used. Why not on DVD? I would also guess that the DVD standard is not capable of such high frame rates, nor the additional space needed for the frames. Add to that the incredible cost of shooting a film from two perspectives, or digitally creating another perspective.
In gaming though, this could incur no additional development cost. The hardware could just render the 3D image in two different ways, which could mean that it would do it for gamecube titles too. That could (okay, maybe this is more of a stretch) explain the reasoning for a dual-processor system, so that it would have a processor for each perspective.
The gyro controller sounds very likely to me. Since the claim is to use old tech in new ways, I expect this won’t be the same as Kirby Tilt & Tumble, though it may have that functionality. I think the gyro-related link above is right on target. I remember hearing about an enhanced ‘rumble’ function, so the gyro could be used as a feedback more than a sensor, or both. I’ve never played with a gyro scope, but I remember a millinium falcon toy from Taco Bell that had one in it. When you would spin it, it would cause the falcon to balance on one point. If you held it and tried to tilt it, you felt noticable resistance. I think this is going to be the primary function of the gyro. Nintendo’s new controller philosophy seems to be based around simplicity, so I think it is likely there will be no buttons or very few.
A while back I remember a patent by Nintendo for a some sort of positioning system, perhaps it was GPS, maybe I made this up. I’m not sure. Either way, I think a possibility for the other special wireless technologies is a sort of positioning system for the controllers. The angle of the image and could change to reflect your positon in the room, or the individual postitions of each player in the room.
Most of the features of the system I envision would be simple in action. A controller that you tilt and move to affect the game, and consequently it moves back at you. Not 13 joysticks and 42 buttons, just simple movement and perhaps a couple buttons. The postitioning system would be transparent to the end user, and the 3D would just work, no glasses. You wouldn’t think about it, it would be natural. Raise your hand if you think this will be crap for fighting games and other button-freak-outs? [I'm raising mine].
Nintendo is doing something fundementally different, so while I may be wrong, I think I am on the right track. It won’t work like other game systems, so don’t expect to play the games you’re used to. Nintendo rarely gets the cross-platform games anyway. It won’t kill Sony or Microsoft, it doesn’t need too. It will have its own market. Most gamers have 2 or more systems anyway. So in the end, will you buy PS3 and the all-too-similar XBOX 360, or will you buy one of those and the completely different Revolution? In a sence, Nintendo is providing the hardcore gamers with something different while providing the non-gamers with a game system that they are capable of playing. Please stop saying that Nintendo is losing, it’s not just incorrect, you are hurting my poor fanboy feelings.
April 26th, 2005 at 1:04 am
Honestly, I hope it’s not something as simple as more frames-per-second. Obviously, I don’t have any experience with it, but that really does sound like something that should be one (admittedly small) game’s gimmick - not a whole machine.
“Ooo, it kinda looks 3D-ish” is not what I’m looking for here.
Something that actually looks as though it’s coming out of the TV, though, or something that actually “does”… Now you’ve got something I’ll take out a loan for.
April 26th, 2005 at 2:14 am
I really, really, really, don’t want to wear 3D glasses.
April 26th, 2005 at 4:00 am
I have personaly never seen 3D technologies in person before. And when it comes to looking at the idea that an ultra high framerate coupled with mind bending effects could produce the effect of 3D, it rules out the usage of commong computer screens and telivision screens. 90% of T.V’s out there only bother to refresh their own screen 60fps, even high end HD tvs would have difficulty working with this ultra high frame rate. The perception of the human optic nerv can only really handle between 47-66 frames per second. at 32 frames per second we are even fooled into thinking something is moving. But at this high frame rate, It is understandable that when one adjusts their possition to the platform upon which this 3D system is working, the motor coordnation within the optic nerve and the translation we eventually get in our brain will assume that that the repossitioning of the object in our free space has occured. think of it this way, the intensity from one angle changes to the other angle. look at simple holograms on flat pices of paper, when one moves, ones perception assumes that that object upon that flat survface has moved in either responce to you or as a change in perception. Now looking at the technology aspect of it all, how can there be an implication of such a technology into a home? It would be quite difficult due to the fact that a seperate medium (from that of telivisions and computer screens) would have to be intorduced. What us Sci-Nerds call a half box (take the top and two sides off of the corner of a cube, its hard to explain) would be nessasary, or an abundant floor base containing thousands if not millions of tiny mirrors shaped like pyramids
April 26th, 2005 at 4:04 am
from my quick read through this, it doesn’t look like it was mentioned so….
the Revolution controller will NOT have A or B buttons or a D-Pad - this has been officially announced
that said, i’ve also heard that the controller could be entirely pressure and touch sensitive, letting developer’s map out their own buttons
as for the display, i’m all for it. it makes sense, u only focus on what you need to…like driving. you can watch the road, then when u want to check the mirror or speedo u just change your focus a little and glance in that direction. except it will all b in front of you, whereas now your looking at a flat plane with the appearance of depth. kudos to nintendo for bringing us a step closer to full VR
April 26th, 2005 at 4:35 am
Cont… This abundant base technology would be able to progect upwards from the floor (a small base being one ft square) and progect towards three different intense points due to the pyramid. and with the progection off these three angled surfaces, when one adjusts their position around the base, they will move from looking at either one face of the pyramids to seeing two at the same time. the reason the high intensity of this frame rate is important is to fool the eyes, when looking into this platform, one will be baraged with the images off both mirrors or off a collective surface of mirrors focused in one direction. Enough said about this, it only gets more complicated from here, but this technology is only in a fledgling state, I belive that the largest base created for this form of eye twisting technology is only five inches square. thus it would be very difficult on nintendo’s part to present a lifted 3d image. But don’t give up hope! there are ways to create negative space on a flat surface. One does not need an image to exit the surface to progect a 3d image. Again, what us Sci-nerds call a flat surface 3D renderign. thats squishing a 3D image upon a flat surface such as a telivision screen. But with technology that creates negative space, It would be more like looking into a mirror. When your perspective changes, so does the image, and that is the real revolutionary thing about this concept of 3D. I figure its all about perspective, negative space on a computer screen or on a telivision screen or even progected on a wall would be astounding. because of motion tracking technology. one would wear a pin or a sticker that a camera would recognize and adjust the image upon the wall in responce to your movement. But rather than reacting like a flat surface hologram ( I know some of you fear the wonky effect of a hologram) it will process the image apropriatly and smoothly for your movement. Here’s a little expriment any of you should try if you have a camcorder or a web cam. Hold the Camera at arms length and point it towards your face, and keep it in a relativly static possition regarding your head. now move around the room and adjust your body without moving the camera from that static possition in relation to your head (alike attatching the camera to a pole, than attatching the pole to your head with the camera looking back at you) If you do this and see the cool effect created, than you can imagine the image progected on a screen or a wall doing this very thing, your head the object in the game and the camera your vantage point. Maybe this is a little hard to twist your head around. so I will close with the reasons why i think nintento will be able to do this 3D thing successfully.
-firstly, looking at technologies such as negative space and how easliy rendered they are upon flat walls and screen, it would more than plosible to process this within a console even as dated as the nintendo 64, It is really not even that hard, I can create the illusion of negative space myself by using my cheap camcorder and putting it on the tv, as long as there is a focus point in the static posstion and the camera reacts directly to the focus poit (as i tried to explain earlier). This basis of game controll is already the fundamental vantage point for all video games (say the first person)
-movement recognition technologies developed for simple items such as a web cam or a sony eye toy would allow for the express illusion of changed perspective when the player stands up, shifts their possition or walkes from one side of the cameras vantage point to the other.
-And finnaly, the projection upon a screen or a wall would be quite clear and crisp colorwise due to advanced rendering technologies. that is why this wasn’t available when Game Cube came out, this negative space idea has been used since the cold war in flight simulators. But for the graphics that are boasted by nintendo, sony and microsoft, it would take quite the processor to achive a seemless movement recognition for such demanding games-graphic wise.
I hope the scheptics out there see that there are many ways to achive this 3D thing, there is the multi million/impossible way. the old 1950’s bi-color lens way, and there’s the simplest way of all, the use of negative space (the space found in the reflection of a mirror, or a highly rendered 3d image.
April 26th, 2005 at 5:13 am
i was also thinking the same thing what carl D was trying to say about the controllers. the whole controller would just be flat surface untill you push the power button on and then the controller starts taking shape in the way carl D discribed
April 26th, 2005 at 5:52 am
People, read the patent:
http://appft1.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&p=1&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-bool.html&r=15&f=G&l=50&co1=AND&d=PG01&s1=Nintendo.AS.&OS=AN/Nintendo
There is NOTHING there about 3D holographic projection. All of what’s described takes place on a conventional, 2D television / monitor display. The only “3D projection” takes place in the game code.
It’s totally ridiculous that the author of the article has fueled speculation with such an inane and frankly inaccurate leap of logic.
April 26th, 2005 at 6:15 am
I agree with Squaracter and i just want to say to PETER HUNT, shut your fucking mouth and put your XBOX 360 into your GYROSCOPIC RECTUM!!!!
April 26th, 2005 at 6:20 am
I think the fact that Nintendo are trying to produce innovative games and gaming technology is fantastic. Whether or not it will work remains to be seen, but I’m personally not even going to think about it or start forming any biased opinions on the matter until I’ve seen what they’ve got at E3.
The way I see it is the video games industry has become stagnant, let’s face it. Sequels, prequels, revamped graphics engines, more buttons…it’s all just making gaming more complex in the hopes of making each generation of gaming more interesting. On the other hand, innovative technology (like those Virtual Reality set-up’s we were able to try out at games shows in the past) are exciting and different. I would see people ditch all the other stands showcasing traditional rehashed games so that they could go and queue up to play on these innovative VR systems.
Now, consider for a moment that this “Revolution” that Nintendo promises could produce fully 3D realised environments, like in those VR games, but now with X-Box 360’s graphical capabilities, and a control system that reacts to your actual hand movements, etc. Isn’t that a infinitely more interesting a concept than more rehashed racing, fighting, platform, and puzzle games? When I think of the Revolution, I try to picture how I would want to play FPS games - in FULL 3D (like those VR systems) with a simple controller with a trigger that can be held in just one hand like a gun. Your targeting systems would go where you physically aim with the gyroscopic controller, and if the Revolution had some kind of VR headset, your camera perspective would pan up in real-time, just from you actually looking up. The problems of moving around could be solved with a single analogue stick under the thumb, or as mentioned previously, a touch sensitive touchscreen-esque sensor.
Racing games would in the same fashion, with the triggers acting as analogue sensitive accelerators, and steering simply controlled by tilting the controller from side to side. Someone pissing you off to your left? You could physically turn your head to the left to check out their position.
Now, I know Nintendo hasn’t made any references to any form on VR gaming, so don’t even bother trying to tell me I’m wrong because I’m not saying that I’m right. Call me an optimist, but these are the kind of innovations I want to start seeing in my gaming experiences. And until next month’s E3 festival, I’m going to hold out for something special, because I want to believe that there’s more to the great future of gaming than just pressing buttons to interact what’s being displayed on a solo screen. If Nintendo let me down too much, I’ll just get the X-Box 360 and pray for a more innovative future. But ultimately, who wants to keep paying to play rehashed versions of the same games forever? I know I don’t.
April 26th, 2005 at 7:15 am
Something like that. There is no definite revolution yet. The actual N5 probably won’t even determine it. But what I’m sure what we all would like to see for the industry is one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes.
April 26th, 2005 at 8:41 am
Squaracter,
I read the patent but don’t really understand the principle. Can you shed some lamen light on this?
April 26th, 2005 at 8:58 am
I’ve been following this blog for awhile now, and I must saw I find it quite misleading. Is this a publicity stunt? For the record, I can 100% guarantee that the Nintendo Revolution will NOT use 3D images a la Spy Kids 3D.
I worked for NOA for 5 years, and I am now currently working with a major 3rd party developer who happens to be working on all three next generation consoles. I’m not going to give out the company name, due to obvious reasons.
The next generation hardware will bring about a total change in the way we view video games. You already know about the power of the Xbox 360 (Huxley is a great example), but the PS3 and the Revolution are going to blow you away. All three will be at E3, don’t worry. I knew the PS3 was going to be a very capible piece of hardware, but I didn’t image it would be as powerful as it truly is. Microsoft ran around telling everyone how much more powerful the Xbox was over the PS2 and GC. I wonder how they are going to market the Xbox 360, since in will be the weakest next generation console.
I’m going to reveal some details about the Revolution, as well as give out some hints. I probally won’t reveal the “revolutionary” aspect of it, though. Nintendo has a enormous suprise waiting for you all at E3. You won’t believe your eyes.
April 26th, 2005 at 9:15 am
go on then - you exNOA guy - spill the beans! Tell us what you know!
April 26th, 2005 at 9:26 am
yes tell us or i will hunt you down ex nintendo dude
April 26th, 2005 at 9:29 am
Derek:
The patent details code that allows a 3D camera system, like you’d see in just about any modern game, to keep multiple players on-screen at the same time. This sort of system is already used in stuff like Mario Party where you have multiple players controlling multiple 3D characters on screen at once, and the camera shifts to keep them all in the frame.
The specific focus of the patent is to specify how such a camera system could be used to create a consistent focus point, rather than one that moves and shifts constantly (as, say, the camera in Gauntlet might). This allows you to keep your eye on a relatively fixed point on the screen rather than darting about constantly.
That’s it. Smarter camera code. Nice to have, but NOTHING TO DO WITH 3D STEREOGRAMS / HOLOGRAPHIC PROJECTION / ETC.
Gamesradar has picked up this story now, and it’s all because the author of this article didn’t bother to read what the patent was saying.
There are going to be some disappointed fanboys at E3, but in this case it won’t be Nintendo’s fault. Hooray for lazy journalism.

Squaracter,
Hmm. That’s pretty much what I thought. The text in the patent paragraph was overly technical. That said, a ’smart’ camera system is NOT what Nintendo will be showcasing at E3.
I’m sure Nintendo has something up their sleeves that will blow us all away.
April 26th, 2005 at 9:39 am
I was pretty much just speculating stuff I like to dream :). I do remember holographic technology that is starting to come around. I believe a company where I live (Rochester, Ny) was developing units for holographic projection. Then again it was for medical purposes. It still would be cool. Either way I am a die hard Nintendo fan and will get the Revolution and I am still excited about it.
April 26th, 2005 at 10:19 am
oh wait there is two dereks lol hey derek #2
April 26th, 2005 at 10:20 am
sup g.
April 26th, 2005 at 10:25 am
irrespective of this being a case of confusing patent descriptions, mightn’t it be possible to have the projection unit in the controller or at least a separate one for each player?
April 26th, 2005 at 11:53 am
3D gaming? stop building up our hopes! lol
April 26th, 2005 at 2:14 pm
You guys are still talking about the 3D angle of that article? Check the date of the patent in question. This has already been used in a game that’s out right now. I would suggest you pay attention to IGN or N-Sider more.
Like I said, I’m going to give out some details on the next gen hardware, especially the Nintendo Revolution. You guys already know a lot of information on the Xbox 360; you guys have already seen the specs of the system. Gamespy released them around GDC. I was at GDC, and I’ll fill you in on some stuff that IGN can’t talk about. Specs and details on the Nintendo Revolution were given out to developers during the conference. I can verify that my company as well as EA and Midway received them at GDC. I’m positive other publishers received them as well.
From what I’ve heard, Capcom and Namco are sold on the Revolution and are currently playing around with the development kits. I don’t know whether they are actually making games for it though. I was suprised to hear that Square Soft has a game in development for the Revolution. It will be at E3 as well as some other next gen titles for the PS3.
I’m currently working on a game for the Revolution as well. I can’t guarantee that it will be at E3 though. I think people are going to be very suprised. When I worked with Nintendo, I was able to see the earliest builds of the system. It has come a long way, to say the least. There are a lot of graphics whores out there who feel the Revolution will be a weak system. They will be very suprised come E3. Microsoft is banking on stealing the show, but I think they will be upstaged by Nintendo as well as Sony. It’s going to be very funny to see them trying to get people excited about Perfect Dark 0 when both Nintendo and Sony will be showing off Halo killers.

Aries = liar
April 26th, 2005 at 2:57 pm
@Aries
Though I really don´t know if I can truely believe the things you´re writing, you made me curious! So, maybe you´re just another freak, or you relly know something. Just tell us, what are the specs of Revolution? And what about the pads?
April 26th, 2005 at 3:06 pm
He’s obviously douchebag with no connections what-so-ever.
He still says Squaresoft…
Who doesn’t KNOW if their game is gonna be at E3 (wtf)
The Revolution won’t have 3D - BUT - We ‘wont believe our eyes’.
I’m just a game tester and I probably know more than him.
April 26th, 2005 at 3:28 pm
I am a liar? I’m a gamer just like you, Dood. Now, I get to be a gamer and work on them as well. It’s a great thing.
I’m not going to share specs with you because they aren’t really that important. I think Iwata said something like that when asked the same question. All three consoles are going to be very powerful, trust me. I’ll give you some information though: it will be more powerful than the Xbox 360. Much more powerful. Many gamers seem to think it will be as powerful as the GBA or something. That isn’t the case at all. From what I saw during my time their as well as our game, it will be very capible.
But having the most powerful console doesn’t guarantee that gamers are going to buy it. Software sells the games. And if that statement holds true next generation, the Nintendo Revolution will be very popular.
In my next post I will “spill the beans” on everything I know about the Revolution. I’ll give you some hints though. All the rumors out there are not mere rumors. Some are planted by people who are working on the consoles. In fact, Nintendo is doing this right now with the information they’ve released on the Revolution. You are going to see why Nintendo hasn’t just come out and said confirmed that the Revolution is going to be very powerful. You’re going to be punk’d by them in a couple weeks. Pay attention to the boards, especially Nintendo’s board. It’s much better than OurColony.
April 26th, 2005 at 3:29 pm
Dear Aries
Don t know if you really work on Revolution, but can you tell me what is the game your are talking about?The one which already use the 3D angle stuff…
April 26th, 2005 at 3:29 pm
Dood, keep in mind that things change at the last minute. If I remember correctly, Miyamoto was supposed to show off Mario 128 at last E3, but at the last minute decided not to (that whole paranoia thing.) I still say Squaresoft
Also, a system doesn’t need to have 3D to blow us away 
On that note, I’m also sorta skeptical on you, Aries. Nothing personal, it’s just that you don’t have evidence to back your claims and you can’t provide any (unless you want to get fired, of course.)
April 26th, 2005 at 3:42 pm
Well, Sean, of course I can’t give out everything. You’re right; I don’t want to get fired. If I confirm the game I’m working on, we’ll all get in trouble.
Amuroray, I think you know already. The game is for the Gamecube obviously. I just can’t believe people think it has anything to do with next generation hardware.
April 26th, 2005 at 3:52 pm
Aries, what company do you work for? And why do you keep saying “ylu’ll spill the beans in my next post”. Are you stalling for time to think of what the rev rly is?? I want to believe you, I just somehow need to know who you really are. Maybe you can provide your name so I can sopmehow see if this is true? Because if it is, this could be huge stuff you’re giving us. However, it could just be an elaborate hoax, and frankly, ive seen enough of them
April 26th, 2005 at 3:53 pm
So how accurate is Brooke’s speculation, Aries?
April 26th, 2005 at 3:56 pm
Ok thank you…About The Revolution, we going to see it very soon..(if they dare to show it…)So I can wait until E3.
April 26th, 2005 at 3:58 pm
Aries sounds legit. Just hear him out, and form your own views.
April 26th, 2005 at 4:01 pm
Fine, if hes lying, though, Ill be really angry
April 26th, 2005 at 4:04 pm
Maybe He will give us only Hints or clues….
April 26th, 2005 at 4:24 pm
so……………Aries spill the funkin beans dude. Just prove your for real, you dont have to tell us anything confidential.
April 26th, 2005 at 4:32 pm
As far as I see it (because I’m too trusting) Nintendo has the resources to do way better than their competition. I know the age old rivalry between Sony and Nintendo used to be the focus back in the day, and lately it has been a so-called beat down on Nintendo in the last four years. But with Gamecube and its reportedly so poor sales and a situation with the developers which looks totaly bleak, there is a feeling that Nintendo is indeed the underdog (at least for us North American Fanboys). And with that status (eventhough nintendo steals the show at most of the conferances they are at) Nintendo not only as a firm but as an ideology (ideology because I too have mistakenly enraged a fanboy by making a wayward glance at an X-box) that those who have supported and in some cases suffered for nintendo the last four years have now come to a crossroad. There is much excitement in the air for us, Look at this blog, If a sterile perspective were to come into this blog, they would say that we are all building castles in the sky, and some are trying to tear them down. however, if this is true, that dozens and dozens of ninteno Fanboys around Northamerican have become so enamoured with this new console as to make post after post defending, almost violently, defending against the slightest critic. and one should not be angry for this statement, because it proves one thing that nintendo has that sony only has a little of, and microsoft has almost none of (Jhon Cherry moment here), Nintendo has our hearts and minds. enough said
April 26th, 2005 at 4:37 pm
ok….i’m still waiting for Aries to proof his claims………………………..
April 26th, 2005 at 4:41 pm
Here you go:
Brooke got some things right, but much of it is flawed. I don’t know whether he just made up a lot of that stuff, because many of the points have been disproven before. For instance, Game Informer wrote an article on the next generation consoles in which it claims the Revolution’s controller will have one giant touch screen. I’m thinking this is where Brooke got that idea. The Revolution will not have a touch screen. Iwata has stated this before. The controller will be quite normal in the sense that it will have a d-pad and buttons. Like I said, I’m not going to tell you the revolutionary aspect of the system. Nintendo has some cool pre E3 plans for that.
First off, the 3D visuals he mentioned have nothing to do with the system. Nintendo isn’t crazy.
It will also have gyroscopic controls, but like Brooke said, not all the games will use it. For instance, earlier I mentioned Nintendo has a Halo killer in development for the Revolution. This game will use the gyroscopic controls for aiming as wel as other things. Our game isn’t using this function.
The controller will be wireless; he’s right about that. As you also know, the Xbox 360’s controllers will be wireless as well. Where do you think they got this idea? That’s why Nintendo is still trying to determine what to show at E3. From what I’ve heard, they will show the design of the system as well as games. I’ll tell you about the software later though.
The controller will also be pressure sensitive. The pressure you put into it will determine certain things, such as movement. This is another optional capibility. Someone on Nintendo’s board mentioned this months ago. They said that “touching is good, but feeling is better.” This may sound strange, but it provides great controls. Racing games will really be helped by this control setting.
The Nintendo Revolution will also include voice control more advanced than anything seen so far. Nintendogs is just the beginning. To achieve this, Nintendo sent us headsets (similar to ones you can use for Xbox Live) that are wirelessless communicating with the console. Imagine being able to merely call for an airstrike or reload your gun by giving out commands orally. So far, we have put this feature to the test the most; as you can see, I’m excited over this feature.
From a graphical perspective, the Nintendo Revolution is very powerful. Many people seem to think this won’t be the case, but rest assured. The games I saw while working at Nintendo were very beautiful. I’ll tell you about those later.
As Nintendo has stated before, the system will be online. In my eyes, the online system they have set up is the most revolutionary part of the system. While Sony and Microsoft are busy turning their systems into trojan horses for their other electronic devices, Nintendo is going to use the Revolution for direct communication with gamers. The only way I can describe it is as an internet service. Imagine turning it on and checking your mail on the system. You see previews and demos of DS and Revolution games that you can download. A magazine similar to Nintendo Power will be exclusive to the system, and you will be able to access it on the Revolution’s homepage. As you check you mail, you will also see various invitations from gamers on your buddy list who want to play you. There are so many other ways this is going to be used. Once the Revolution comes out, there will be no reason to hang out on message boards. Message boards as well as chat rooms will be available on the Revolution so that gamers can discuss and challenge each other all day. And the best thing is that the entire thing is totally free and easy to use. Why play Madden on Xbox Live when you’ll be able to play it for free on the Revolution with much better services?
That’s all I’m going to reveal for now. There are some very interesting games in the horizon for the Revolution; I’ll talk about them later.
April 26th, 2005 at 4:46 pm
Hmmmm. Wasn’t it already reviled officially that there would be no D-pad on the controller.
April 26th, 2005 at 4:48 pm
I believe you, but certain things trouble me. First of all, what is the big “revolutionary” feature. Youve named quite a few things, all of which have been rumored before, but nothing new or so revolutionary. What could the real revolution be? And, you said the feature you are most excited about is the microphone/voice commands. That doesnt sound too good, if that really is the thing you are most excited about.
April 26th, 2005 at 4:49 pm
Sorry, revealed
April 26th, 2005 at 4:52 pm
How does that shit prove you are who you say you are.
April 26th, 2005 at 4:58 pm
Well……….stop making claims you cant support.
April 26th, 2005 at 5:04 pm
Like Brooke said, console ideas are nothing without good games. Once you see the games, you will understand. I would go as far to say that the Revolution isn’t as revolutionary as Nintendo is saying. It should be called the Nintendo Simplicity, because every aspect I mentioned greatly simplifies the gaming experience. For instance, the pressure sensitive grips on the controller make racing games much easier to control and play. Wave Race (yes, it will be at E3) is going to be very impressive because it will use this function. It will be sort of like controlling a game with one of those stress balls. You squeeze it and you go faster. It’s hard to explain though.
Don’t expect to see too much if any of the controller at E3 though. Nintendo is still trying to decide what to show and what not to show. The games will be revealed, as well as specs and the system design. But the controller is still being considered.
To Jesus: when you see the voice controls, you will be blown away. Go back and watch some sci fi movies with voice controlled vehicles (such as AI or I am Robot).
April 26th, 2005 at 5:05 pm
well if u think about it voice commands is advanced ai. What if Revolution could recognize 20,000 words of the english language and respond accordingly? Wouldn’t that be revolutionary in itself. I was thinking about the hardware and I think that maybe it is possible that the revolution will use a 64 bit dual core processor that ibm is developing for the system. I think a lot of this seems like stuff that nintendo would do and couldnt just be pulled outta thin air.
April 26th, 2005 at 5:12 pm
Derek, you are very, very close. The online system they are creating isn’t just for communication and online play. It will be able to download specific software in order to upgrade. This will allow for downloadable dictionary patches that will allow the system to understand even more words and phrases.
To Jesus: How do you want me to “prove” that I’m right? Should I give you my name and company? You must be crazy. Wait until E3. It’s only 20 days away. So in 20 days, you will know almost everything that I know.
April 26th, 2005 at 5:14 pm
Aries just saw your other post. I am fully supporting you because this is a lot of stuff I myself have thought they might be doing. I just thought it might be something that would be as an add on or something. To integrate it is awesome.
April 26th, 2005 at 5:18 pm
haha you are posting just when i am typing aries. This is all stuff I have dreamed of pretty much cause Nintendo has always been that one place for me to escape everything and spend time in another interactive world. I have always though about the idea of creating a game that could understand everything you said and not just certain catch phrases. I mean if you can do it in voice to text for the computer how much harder can it be. If a system can respond to even half the stuff I say(including the swearing) then I would love it.
April 26th, 2005 at 5:25 pm
Interesteing views Aries. We will see in 20 days for sure. I am trying to decide who to believe, you or Brooke. IGN says he is in the postion to know. 3D viuslas can be done, and affordably. The patent, as far as I remember, was supposed to be about REV not about an existing game. I may be mistaken. Thanks for the info.
April 26th, 2005 at 5:27 pm
Aries… one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes. A perspective that will change gameplay from seeing to experiencing. The perfect control.
DATK
April 26th, 2005 at 5:27 pm
Hey Aries,
You’ve really helped me gain more confidence in the upcoming Nintendo console. I was afraid that Nintendo was digging deeper into it’s own grave but now im confident that there is hope for Nintendo to gain back it’s share in the videogame industry.
I was wondering, you said earlier that
“But having the most powerful console doesn’t guarantee that gamers are going to buy it. Software sells the games. And if that statement holds true next generation, the Nintendo Revolution will be very popular”
Does this mean that Nintendo already has more 3rd party support then the Gamecube? And if so, why haven’t any companies gone ahead and shown their support for the machine similar to companies that have shown support for the xbox 360?
And if you don’t mind me asking, what genre is the game that your studio is developing? And what functions do you guys plan on utilizing from the whole set that Nintendo has to offer with it’s next generation console?
April 26th, 2005 at 5:43 pm
Compadre te las estas mandando, sigue con la informacion que me estas convenciendo.
April 26th, 2005 at 5:48 pm
Monkey C:
Interesting questions. From what I’m hearing, the Revolution will have some impressive 3rd party support around launch. EA, Capcom, Namco, Konami, Majesto, Squaresoft (sorry, I still call them that), and my company are supporting it so far. I’m sure others are working on stuff. For instance, I don’t see why a game like Soul Caliber III won’t be on the Revolution. Squaresoft has a game ready for E3, as well as Zoonami. So yes, it looks like it will get better 3rd party support. But this could change if the system is unsuccessful.
I’m currently working on one Revolution game. Right now, we are still in the early stages of development. We have alot of concrete things down, but not enough to show I don’t think. Of course this could change if our publisher wants us to show our hand at E3.
We are working on a 3rd person action game. It is a recreation of a classic series that I felt could have been one of the most successful IP’s of the 1990’s. It will include the pressure sensitive controls I mentioned, but they will be optional. We are also using the voice controls for weapon and vehicle customization as well as AI controls. Since the game will be online, we are putting the online function to the test. Right now it’s going to provide 40 person multiplayer battles, but this could change (and increase) in time. We are also excited about using the revolutionary aspect of the system to create new ways to experience the genre. It will be like Halo and Ratchet and Clank 3 mixed.
Heck, here’s a hint (if you get it, I’ll tell you who I work for):
Master Chief wasn’t the first galatic hero to don green.
April 26th, 2005 at 5:56 pm
gyroscopic controllers, pressure-sensitive, wireless controllers, sophisticated (built-in?) voice recognition, online connectivity, the tech specs to outdo the Xbox and compete with the PS3, and probable launch titles from EA, Capcom, Namco, Konami, & Square? AND there’s another unrevealed feature that’s even more impressive?
why doesn’t this square with the lukewarm hype/buzz around the Revolution?
April 26th, 2005 at 6:02 pm
U work for SEGA right!! are u talking about vectorman!!
April 26th, 2005 at 6:06 pm
I thought about vectorman too but i thought sega gave up on that franchise haha oh well….
so mr sega, what else does the company have in production for the big N?
April 26th, 2005 at 6:21 pm
Ok, I believe you Aries. Just answer me this question: Did you reveal the big revolutionary feature?? If you did, whcih one is it. What is the defining feature of the revolution. And, if you didnt reveal it, tell me if its impressive andif its really so great?
Green Lantern?
April 26th, 2005 at 6:24 pm
The first thing that came to mind was vectorman. In fact, thats the only thing that I can thing of. Since we are on the subject. What other classic 90’s games would you like to see make a comeback. I would say “shadow run” and hmmmm…. “smash t.v.”
April 26th, 2005 at 6:26 pm
Revolution == Simplicity ???
April 26th, 2005 at 6:29 pm
Revolution == Kicking Sony’s and MS Candy ASSES ?????
April 26th, 2005 at 6:30 pm
I don’t believe a person who is part of developing a game that may show at e3 would have time to inject this blog with insight all day, even if there is no solid e3 connection, I presume that people who work on games would be bussy all day doing their job… But there are lazy/bored people out there who would find a way to jerk around at work (unless this is your day off aries)
April 26th, 2005 at 6:34 pm
Is “Wanda & The Colossus” the game that uses the Perspective feature thingy ???
April 26th, 2005 at 6:45 pm
Well, you guys are a smart bunch. I don’t work for Sega, but they are letting us work on the Vectorman IP. We are developing it for them. So, I have given you our current publisher, but I’m not giving out the developer stuudio.
To Jesus: No, I haven’t revealed the revolutionary aspect of it. I just don’t want to give it away. Like I said, Nintendo has a great idea for introducing it to the world. It’s going to be very cool, and I’d hate to spoil that. It will be the ultamate prank. Watch “The Game” with Michael Douglas. It will be that cool.
I think it is impressive, but not as revolutionary as they are saying. For instance, there was no hype about the analog stick when it was revealed. It just made games easier to control. This aspect of it id very easy to use like everything else in the Revolution. Everyone will be able to understand it.
April 26th, 2005 at 6:46 pm
can u elaborate on what this revolutionary function does? or how it helps enhance the gaming experience or in other words simplify it?
April 26th, 2005 at 6:48 pm
Madrid, you are correct in many ways. My job is very stressful. But I am on break this week, so that allowed me to catch up on this blog. We read IGN and the other sites all the time. I’ve hung out with guys from Game Informer on many occasions. Next week, I doubt you will hear from me too much, if at all. So this week I will fill you all in on what I know. Tommorrow I’ll give you details on the Revolution’s games. I want to wait and hear what Brooke has to say about this as well. He said he’s going to reveal some software information. Let’s see how accurate it is.
April 26th, 2005 at 6:50 pm
nintendo Revolution suck ass it sucks sucks its the Mac of conssoles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! poeple think think
April 26th, 2005 at 6:50 pm
Aries… all this stuff is true…???? i mean…
Square have a Revolution Proyect… and we gonna see it in E3????
if that’s true… that’s why FFCC was the only game for GCN for Square….
April 26th, 2005 at 6:59 pm
Thanks for the info Aries!! i’ll be sure to tune in tomorrow.
April 26th, 2005 at 6:59 pm
Hey Aries,
When and should I say how will Nintendo present this. I have seen “The Game” before it is a crazy psychological movie. Can you give hints just to HOW they will release it to the public? If it is as simple as an analog stick (you would think gryos fit that description)
Also will the revolution part be a part of the controller, the hardware or neither? Is it a brand new part that is coming into video games like the dancing pad for Dance Dance Revolution?
April 26th, 2005 at 7:10 pm
I hope the 3D projection system isn’t painful to look at, like the virtual boy was. That gave me quite a few headaches.
April 26th, 2005 at 7:13 pm
Hey Aries,
Do you work for Pseudo Interactive? and how come the new vectorman game is slated for a ps2 release and not a next gen release?
April 26th, 2005 at 7:13 pm
Hey Aries,
I heard a rumor that square is working on “Chrono Break” as a rev launch title. Could that be the game square is working on.
April 26th, 2005 at 7:16 pm
Apparntly sega is working on a NiGHTs game for the Rev too.
I just found a huge release list of sega games for next gen….
http://forum.pcvsconsole.com/viewthread.php?tid=14231
April 26th, 2005 at 7:20 pm
You work for Silicon Knights. I know I’m wrong.
April 26th, 2005 at 7:34 pm
mmmmmmmm
You work for “Pseudo Interactive” ??? What say you !!!
April 26th, 2005 at 7:36 pm
I haven’t heard anything about a new Nights game, which is sad; Nights was a brilliant game. I have heard talk of a new Virtual Fighter though. Just talk though.
Vectorman isn’t coming out for the PS2. Sega was going to bring it to the current consoles, but the plan was scrapped. And no I don’t work for Pseudo Interactive. Or Silicon Knights. Funny you bring them up though. They will have one of the best games at E3. Outside of Zelda, Nintendo’s FPS (developed by Rare), and PD0, it will be the one of the best showings of E3.
I don’t have details on what game Squaresoft is working on. I know that it will be at E3 along with Final Fantasy 3 and FF:CC for the DS.
I’m not going to give out the secret. It’s going to be very fun; wait until E3. Nintendo is going to roll out a trojan horse: something that looks innocent and weak and them bam, it will be unveiled. Just don’t make up your mind on the first day of E3.
There is not a Sonic game in development for the Revolution. It is an exclusive Gamecube game. This one is totally seperate from Shadow the Hedgehog, which will be multi console (and should hit the PSP as well).
That’s all for today. I will be back. Hopefully Brooke will update his site by then. I want to hear more of what he allegedly knows.
April 26th, 2005 at 7:40 pm
Hey aries,
how can rare be developing a game for revolution if the company is owned my microsoft?
newayz im excited for e3… i think now that nintendo may continue it’s trend in totally dazzling consumers at e3.
And btw you still have to tell us where you work cause we guessed vectorman!!!
April 26th, 2005 at 7:41 pm
An FPS from Rare for the Revolution? I believe in many things, but that sounds totally absurd!
April 26th, 2005 at 7:42 pm
Did you just say “developed by rare”? Microsoft bought rare from nintendo. Therefore, rare developes for microsoft only. Now I’m getting real skeptical.
April 26th, 2005 at 7:47 pm
Developed by Rare ?? Please correct that.
April 26th, 2005 at 7:48 pm
dude i was totally ready to believe u, but c’mon!! Rare developing for Nintendo? No a chance in hell
April 26th, 2005 at 7:49 pm
WHOAWHOAWHOAWHOA. Nintendo is coming out with a Rare-developed FPS? I thought Rare went bye bye!
April 26th, 2005 at 7:51 pm
Hmmm i thought Rare went bye bye too…
Hmmm it’s nice to see that a gamecube game is gonna get a lot of spotlight at the show… might be able to help garner support for Nintendo and their next gen console… i think it would be awesome for nintendo to have some sort of zelda next gen sneak peak just to get crowds excited for the machine like they did at previous shows with zelda
April 26th, 2005 at 7:53 pm
I´m also wondering how you would know about all those games. Good connections to other developers is one thing, but your kind of connection seems too good to be true!
April 26th, 2005 at 7:54 pm
It was fun while it lasted.
April 26th, 2005 at 7:57 pm
I dont understand how its being developed by rare. Please, elaborate on this. This statement makes all this info seem less real than I thought, since I cant see any way of rare doing this, unless MS is stupid enough to let them.
And, this revolutionary feature, will it ADVANCE existing gameplay like the analogue stick did, or will it be like the touch screen and offer something completely NEW. I hope its the former.
How the hell do you know all this great info, Aries, you certainly are being really helpful. Maybe I wont be getting an Xbox360 afterall…if this is all true, well have to wait for E3. I dont see how you could make all this up, even though the rare thing seems a bit far-fetched
One more question: Is your game using the big feature, and does it impress you more than the mic. You saif the voice recognition software is what impresses you most, but do you mean most impressive out of the features you listed, or most impressive of all features - including the big one?
April 26th, 2005 at 7:58 pm
I was thinking,
Technically speaking, Nintendo has potential to pull of the best show ever only because we’re not expecting anything from them. Nintendo loves to be secretive about everything they do and hence them just surprising the world with the Nintendo would get everyone so excited for the show… it’s the perfect marketing plan for a machine like that.
And a lot of the stuff Aries has stated can be taken for nothing or everything. I’m pretty sure that he’s hitting the nail on the head with his information. If he isn’t then hey what the hell we find out in two weeks any way. BUt for now everything he’s telling us is enough to keep us interested in the machine, something that alot of people arent right now.
April 26th, 2005 at 8:00 pm
The reason im nervous is because all this info looks VERY positive, but if its false, it would be such a downer. I still cant believe rare is developing for nintendo. Aries, where did you get this info?
April 26th, 2005 at 8:02 pm
Yeah the rare story is kina far fetched but im looking for info online for it just because anything can happen in the gaming world haha but im sure that it wont be true unless just out of nowhere it does turn out to be tru
April 26th, 2005 at 8:03 pm
For starters, Revolution no matter what it does or looks like, will be as powerful as Xbox 360 and PS3, this has been stated. The GameCube is way beyond the PS2 and just below the Xbox. 3D visuals adds a new dmension to the way we play games, if it’s true and it’s done well Nintendo will be considered as gods trust me.
As for e3 2005, we probally won’t get much info this year, we’ll have to wait until the end of the year or early next, Nintendo is too paranoid trust me.
What we realy need is some new games announced for GameCube as after Zelda there is NOTHING… Hopefully something will be announced soon to tie us oiver for Revolution.
April 26th, 2005 at 8:04 pm
Well, Just a few months ago, Rareware released a GBA game. Mr. Pants i believe. So just because Microsoft has rights over the once glorious developer. there is still a little cross platform development going on
April 26th, 2005 at 8:07 pm
The reason rare developed that game was because it was for gameboy and at the time Microsoft wanted to buy nintendo. There is no way that microsoft would create competition for their own console by letting their own company make games for a competitor. That’s like sony making a game for nintendo or xbox… newayz, i think that this e3 is going to showcase Revolution, what it’s about and what to expect. that’ll keep ppl talking
April 26th, 2005 at 8:12 pm
Rare has made a few GBA games, but this isn’t a case where Microsoft has, say, a 30 percent stake in Rare- they own the entire company. There is absolutely no reason why Microsoft would allow their in-house studio to develop a ‘killer app’ for the Revolution launch. It would be self-sabotage.
Almost definitely this is a hoax, then, interesting and mostly plausible but still a hoax.
April 26th, 2005 at 8:18 pm
Don’t know about the Rare thing, unless it was a typo, but I like the weak then bam part. I’ll be awaiting E3 in 2 weeks.
April 26th, 2005 at 8:20 pm
The fact that this is a hoax worries me. If he got this wrong, maybe the whole article is rubbish
April 26th, 2005 at 8:37 pm
Maybe he just meant to say Retro, you know a simple slip of the tongue or in this case the fingers. After all, Retro was working on some new IP’s for Gamecube (namely the game Raven Blade but they also had a football game in development) until Nintendo asked them to focus all of their attention to the completion of Metroid Prime. But, on the other hand it could be a complete fabrication considering he calls Square-Enix Squaresoft, Virtua Fighter-Virtual Fighter and he says that Rare is developing for Revolution, even though i think he meant to say Retro.
April 26th, 2005 at 8:39 pm
How can this be a complete fabrication tho??? No one has an imagintaion this insane
April 26th, 2005 at 9:13 pm
I guess will we have to wait until the morning, until he can clear up Rares invovlement will Nintendo (unless it was a typo)
………It all seems more credible than 99.9% of the rumors and speculations that are on the web. Im personally just going to wait until E3.
April 26th, 2005 at 9:18 pm
More credible because he’s saying what you WANT to hear?
I could’ve posed just as easily.
April 26th, 2005 at 9:20 pm
True, and that was why i initially figured he had just mistaken Rare with Retro, but ah well E3 is in 20 days and if what he says is true (and i hope it is) we are going to be blown away. Now, on a different note i had forgot about this myself, Nintendo was going to release a peripheral for the Gamecube that was supposed to “increase the life of the system” and anticipated showing it at the last E3 along with the Nintendo DS. An article supporting this can be found at: http://cube.ign.com/articles/505/505413p1.html
So, considering Nintendo planned on showing a Gamecube peripheral at last years E3, this gives a little more credibility to Brooke’s contact who said Nintendo showed off a 3D add-on
behind closed doors and because this peripheral did not surface it gives a little more credibility to Brooke’s assertion that Nintendo opted to build this technology into the Revolution. Hey, it makes a case for why Nintendo decided to make the Revolution backwards-compatible since add-ons typically do not fare that well. And, to those who will say that the bongos were the peripheral that Nintendo was alluding to in that article, i ask you this do think that the bongos are going to extend the life of the Gamecube?
April 26th, 2005 at 9:29 pm
Silicon Knights will have one of the best games at E3? Really? Good for them!
Is it Too Human?
April 26th, 2005 at 9:34 pm
ok ok ok..settle down folks. Now that the cat is almost out of the bag here..I will take it one step further and quench your thirst for information. Everything my colleague has said seems accurate from where I stand in the industry. We are on separate ends of things so we are viewing everything from different vantage points, but all his information does follow along with everything I have been allowed to see. I have had the oppurtunity to see this revolutionary feature at work and I will reveal it to you. First off..Nintendo does have a special event planned for this unveiling which is remarkable original and intriguing. I urge you to wait for that and not deprive yourself of the surprise..However..if you cannot wait…scroll down and I will hand you your instant gratification on a silver platter.
*************************************************************
DO NOT READ FURTHER UNLESS YOU ARE SURE
*************************************************************
********************************************************
The revolution is going to feature a capability known as “Bio-Force Feedback” technology. You will have the option of clipping on a small sensor similar to the ones used on treadmills to record heartrate. I cannot say exactly how this will be applied to the specific games because I have only seen it as it was applied to a simple tech demonstration which consisted of a falling block puzzle.
Similar to tetris, the idea was to prevent buildup of blocks along the height of a column by placing specific shapes and colors into certain slots. Here is where the Bio-Force Feedback came into place. If you became nervous and your heart rate increased…The blocks would begin falling at a much faster rate. So all while trying to move quickly to place these blocks into their slots…your other priority is to keep calm. It was quite a thrill to say the least.
As I said, I do not know how this will be applied to actual games. Hopefully well get to see more at E3.
*************************************************************
April 26th, 2005 at 9:47 pm
WHOA. That sounds…cool…
April 26th, 2005 at 9:49 pm
Deepthroat, I don’t think it’s good for you to be lieing to people.
The secret lies directly with the visuals, but it is NOT full 3D. Jesus, E3 is not far off. Just wait till then. You will all be happy. Oh, and also expect a Devil May Cry game at E3 for Revolution.
April 26th, 2005 at 9:53 pm
I think all those talks are getting out of control…
April 26th, 2005 at 9:53 pm
hey Aries, did you meant Rare is making a game for the Revo’ or did you meant Retro? and that biofeedback is old. that’s from a n64 game called “Tetris64″ so booyah!!1!!
April 26th, 2005 at 9:54 pm
Heh, good thing I didn’t read that spoiler, then. So now your name links to Retro Studios. Does this mean you meant Retro instead of Rare, Aries?
April 26th, 2005 at 10:06 pm
For the Rare game for N5, I think Aries mean ZOONAMI. Remember there’s ex rare member over there and the producer of Goldeneye and Perfect Dark founded (sp?) that company. Althought they haven’t make any games for this generation, I think their saved it for N5!!! Zoonami is the perfect company to produce an HALO KILLER FOR NINTENDO.
Have u see the news scans of zelda from egm…………..SPEECHLESS?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
P.S. sorry for my english I’m a french canadian (*_*)
April 26th, 2005 at 10:28 pm
Aries I suggest you come to the IGN boards it would be great to share some info there at the Gamecube General Board.
April 26th, 2005 at 10:42 pm
Aries why in your last comment you put Retro studios website?
April 26th, 2005 at 10:45 pm
You work for Retro Aries?
April 27th, 2005 at 12:11 am
I have top secret information as well from a friend in the industry. I asked him about all these rumours, he to could confirm that 3D wouldn’t be happening, not full 3D. Aries is right. He had more to say but that is all I will reveal for now.
April 27th, 2005 at 12:58 am
All this talk of a ’simple user interface’ by Nintendo made me think about the message boards stuff Aries mentioned.
It would be nice if (due to a lack of keyboard) you could speak your replies to a message board; so what you wanted to post you would actually say and the voice recognition typed it all in.
Hmmm
April 27th, 2005 at 1:35 am
I think Aries is working for Silicon knights. He said that he worked with NOA for 5 years. Silicon knights WAS a 2nd party developer for nintendo, but then broke out with nintendo and became a 3rd party developer. Remember the news which surfed on ign that silicon knights is working with sega on a new project for next generation consoles.
http://cube.ign.com/articles/598/598290p1.html?fromint=1
This project must be Vectorman for REV. But they are working on other games For PS3 and Xbox360 as well, thats how he knew about all of the next generation systems.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:38 am
I would be extreamly disappointed if the system doesn’t feature a form of 3d projection now, sorry to say, I hope you are mistaken Aries (or just lying). As someone who works in games development, my mind has been going into overdrive thinking of the sheer number of possibilities that would be offered by a former of 3D Stereo Scopic Projection.
The level of immersion would be incredible. Also given Brooke’s info about a similar device being demo’s for GC, I’m inclined to believe that they are just keeping the feature secret.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:39 am
seems like a good guess, but that article says *new* franchise
damn, e3 can’t come soon enough can it
April 27th, 2005 at 3:03 am
Revolution or N5 will be a GC add on..
April 27th, 2005 at 3:43 am
Did I say Rare was developing the FPS? Sorry guys, my mistake. As you know, Rare is Microsoft’s property. I meant Retro. Once again, sorry about the typo. Another thing: this isn’t another Metroid sequel I’m talking about. More later.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:25 am
alright thanks for clearing that up and would you really get fired if they find out? if so that sucks
April 27th, 2005 at 4:35 am
That’s the thing I’m suspicious about. Aries, why the hell would you risk your job for this? What do YOU gain from telling us this a few weeks before E3 turns around? It’s not that you want us all to know, I mean, in a few weeks we will all know according to you. So what is the purpose of you risking your job? I’m starting to doubt your credibility. Nothing personal, it’s just hard to buy it.

I did not post that, nor did I link to Retro Studios. Someone is either playing a game or trying to discredit me. Like I said, Capcom has development kits for the Nintendo Revolution. I have not heard any information on what they’re doing. According to EGM, they are working on Resident Evil 5. I have a feeling that it will be for the Gamecube and/or the PS2, but I may be wrong.
Once again, I apologize for the Rare typo. I meant Retro. I know they are working on a Revolution game, which will be a FPS. I’ve seen it, and I can verify that it will not be the third Metroid Prime. It will be an original IP. I do not work for Retro. When I was with NOA, I visited their studio many times. Outside of the FPS, they are working on a DS game. As N-Sider pointed out months ago, Retro were once working on a car combat game to challenge Twisted Metal Black. This game was scrapped for the Gamecube, and they were given Metroid. They have expanded greatly since the success of the first Metroid Prime, and at E3 they will reveal some of their work.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:48 am
>>Oh, and also expect a Devil May Cry game at E3 for Revolution.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:48 am
That was supposed to say: “Sounds like a load of BS. :)”
April 27th, 2005 at 4:53 am
If I felt I was putting my job on the line, I wouldn’t be here. I still haven’t revealed who I work for, so I doubt this information will get too far. Apparently someone posted my information of GameFAQs, but that’s been the only major site so far.
More details later today.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:56 am
Still haven’t answered why you would share this with us. Why are you telling this to us?
Moz
April 27th, 2005 at 4:57 am
So Aries, do you know why (exactly), Silicon Knights split up with Nintendo?
What was the real problem behind the split?
April 27th, 2005 at 5:06 am
In my opinion, the split was do to arrogance on the part of Nintendo. As Matt from IGN has stated many times, both companies view games very differently. Silicon Knights games were not selling well on the Gamecube, and Nintendo was not treating them with respect. I really think this was a terrible mistake. You will know more about the break up before E3 hopefully. They have some stunning software ready for E3. They aren’t playing around anymore.
April 27th, 2005 at 5:08 am
But is that stunning SK software for Revolution?
April 27th, 2005 at 5:12 am
Thanks Aries, but would you happen to know of any possible major mergers or acquisitions that might be taking place soon?
April 27th, 2005 at 5:16 am
And why the hell dont more people in the industry, share their knowledge like you?
I know I would if I was part of a big game company
April 27th, 2005 at 5:18 am
Good inside intel
Thx Aries but can we have more about the controller, that intrigues me most
April 27th, 2005 at 5:19 am
Well, you can be fired for one…
Personally the Ninty/SK thing still confuses me…Obviously the tensions between the two companies isn’t that great considering Dyack was caught making his way to a Nintendo meeting at last E3 and SK still has the Nintendo logo sitting nice and pretty on their front page…
April 27th, 2005 at 5:21 am
Well, there are pretty good reasons why they wouldn’t share- their employers don’t want them to. That’s why everything that’s being said here (no offense Aries) should be taken with about a billion grains of salt until any of it is confirmed. There’s always a ton of noise, and plenty of people that will spew rumours just to spew rumours and mess with people.
I’m not saying that you’re doing that, Aries- lord knows this looks more authentic then your average “NINTENDO IS THE ROXORS!! PROJECTION 3DDD!!!!”- but this kind of thing generally turns out to be bogus. People in the industry- any industry- don’t tend to reveal secrets they shouldn’t.
April 27th, 2005 at 5:24 am
Just Random thoughts….
I wont burden you with the task of answering these questions.
1. If you have to squeeze the controller like a stress ball thingy, where do the buttons go?
2. People speak different languages, have different accents, different voices, how on earth is this voice implementation thing going to work? (and for free)
3. Re5 for this gen and not the next? (ok then)
4. How Nintendo will have all those features online and still be free, is beyond me
April 27th, 2005 at 5:26 am
The only thing I think we’ll see out of SK is, hopefully, Too Human. Provided it wasn’t scrapped, I’d say it’s about time for them to show something. It’s been a good while since their playstation visual demo thing.
I do hope it’s at least multiconsole and also on Revolution to say the least, but I’ve heard around that it will be an xbox 360 game, yadda yadda, but of course nothing is at all confirmed regarding too human.
April 27th, 2005 at 5:34 am
Ni modo, tendre que tomar clases de ingles para comunicarme con la consola.
April 27th, 2005 at 5:40 am
Aries how are you doing today. I would like to thank you for dealing with everyone’s crap. I am glad that a lot of the stuff I always wanted is coming true hopefully.
April 27th, 2005 at 5:47 am
i think mastermind was saying that he hopes he doesn’t have to take english classes to communicate with the console (from what i gathered from babelfish anyway)
Nintendo had a free online network back in the days of the NES, it was all funded by advertising. i’m sure they’ve found something similar, or using some of that 61 billion yen (i think thats right) mountain they’re sitting on. Nintendo has the money to do truly awesome things, they’ve just been a bit afraid to use it.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:01 am
I think Nintendo knows about the language differences. It is possible to program understanding into the various major languages. I wouldn’t worry so much. It would prolly be just a simple option to turn on spanish, french, german, japanese, chinese, etc. Hell what if and this is me just thinking crazy… Nintendo used this communication and made it decipher your language so everyone else who had their Rev set at a certain language..making it so you can understand whoever you play with across the world. One huge global harmony communications wise. The full ability to play with everyone else without having a common set language.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:08 am
Youre so right Sebbo.
Here in my country the spoken english level is relatively low. In fact I’m really doing a great effort writing here and trying to be understood by you “ANGLO” spoken guys.
Did you know Robbie Williams ran away from a chilean T.V.show because of the interviewer (a famous chilean singer) didn’t have an acceptable english level. It was really funny to see the interviewers face right when Robbie said good bye because he didn’t understand what the guy was saying. You had to be there XD XD .
Well then, Nintendo hear me, latin american market hopes to be considered in the plans of your voice recognizing controls plan for the Revolution.
Si no pos que se le va a hacer. A tomar clases intensivas.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:09 am
“You see previews and demos of DS and Revolution games that you can download.” I take it that that confirms there is connectivity between the DS and the revolution(or is the demos only for revolution?)?
April 27th, 2005 at 6:10 am
Silicon Knights is not developing for the Nintendo Revolution right now. They will show off some Xbox 360 games at E3; I can confirm that. Matt saw the game, and he knows what they are up to. Once he is able to talk about it, he will reveal his information to you.
Like I said, I know as much about Resident Evil 5 as you do. I would guess it is going to be a current generation game. If Capcom could have it ready for the holidays (to combat the Xbox 360), it would come out then. But that’s just my own speculation (and hope; RE4 is amazing).
I can confirm that Nintendo is currently working on many Revolution titles. Most are just in the planning stages, but I have seen video of seven. I’m sure at least three or four of these games will be at E3 in video form. Perhaps more; we will see at E3. Outside of our game, there are six 3rd party games that I have heard of. As I mentioned earlier, Square Enix (happy now?) is developing a new game for the Revolution. EA, Sega, Zoonami, Namco, and Activision are currently working on games.
3rd party information:
EA is playing around with the Revolution’s capibilities, implementing them into another Madden game. This isn’t really news though. From what I’ve heard, they are really going out of their way to make this more than just a port. Voice controls are being used to the max in this title. Calling out audibles will be used this way. The wireless capibilities of the system are also going to be used. Like I said, there will be no reason to buy Madden for the Xbox 360 when the Revolution version comes out.
Sega is developing three games for the Revolution that should be at E3. I’m not going to reveal too much on what they are up to for obvious reasons. The three games I listed does not include the game we are developing for them. You will be very suprised at what they are doing. I’m sure you have heard of the Xbox 360 title Condemned that they are working on. This game is something that many wouldn’t expect Sega to make; you won’t expect what you will see at E3. The other game they have is a typical, quirky Sega game. It’s very interesting in the sense that it uses all the system’s capibilities.
Zoonami has already given out some hints on what they are working on. I have always felt that Sam Fisher is a much better character than Solid Snake. Zoonami just might have some characters that are better than both of them.
Namco is working on a Revolution game, but I don’t have details on it. I am sure that it is not a Soul Caliber III port. I don’t see why they just won’t add online play and Link and Ganon to the game and release it as a launch title. That would be a very smart move.
Activision is working on some ports for the Revolution. You will see what they have for the Xbox 360 at E3. At least one of these games will be ported to the Revolution for its launch.
On 1st party information:
Like I said, I have seen seven Nintendo titles, some of which will be at E3. When the DS was launced, it had one sub par 1st party game. This will not be the case with the Revolution’s launch. If they were to release all the games I’ve seen at launch, it would easily be the best launch ever for a console.
I can confirm that Nintendo is working on a new, orignal Mario game. In my opinion, the last few Miyamoto games havn’t been that interesting. This will change with this game. Like Mario 64 for the N64, this game will introduce all of the capibilities of the console. It will use the pressure sensitive controls mainly, but the voice controls as well as gyroscopic controls will be used as well. From what I saw, this game will use mini games to introduce many of these schemes. All of these mini games could be released as stand alone games.
A new Super Smash Bros. Melee is in the works as well. This game will demonstrate the online functions of the Revolution. Nintendo has added many new things into the game, included a deeper combat system. Many more special moves are included as well as some very cool suprises. The levels will include some destructible environments, and the characters will be fully customizable. Want to play as Mario in his 80’s outfit? Or would you prefer the 90’s look? It’s your choice. The most innovative part of the game is the different modes. In previous games, you were allowed to play in giant mode, metal mode, small mode, etc. That has changed. You will be able to choose to play in a “Paper” mode (a la Paper Mario), a cel shaded mode (Wind Waker), or Viewtiful Joe-esque mode.
As I said earlier, Retro is working on a Halo killer. This game is going to be one of the best games at E3. In my opinion, StarCraft was the best RTS ever. This game is going to use some similar ideas. In most FPS, you play as a hero trying to save the day. In Retro’s game, they allow you to choose which storyline you want to play, just like StarCraft allows you to play as Terran, Zerg, etc. Biological weapons will play a major part in the game. Imagine fighting in a chemical plant, where toxics are stored everywhere. By shooting them, you emit the toxic. If you get hit by this stuff, many different things may happen. For instance, you may lose sight on the screen, your controls might be inverted or slowed down, etc. Or, if your character gets the fever, the controller might get hot. Very hot. The alien races are very interesting also. You will be able to switch to 3rd person in order to move faster (similar to running in Odd World: Stranger’s Wrath). You will be able to “impregnate” human players by grabbing on to them for a certain amount of time. This will implant a NPC in them, which will burst out at your command, instantly killing the human player. You will then be able to use voice control to command the NPC.
I will reveal what I know about the other four games later.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:13 am
Alike a Fanboy on Wareoware I find myself shaking after a good run through this blog. I read a lot of desperation in your comments, and why? when armagedon comes six weeks after E3, will you all feel satisfied if the most wonderful conclusion to this topic is uncovered? that nintendo has invented a computer inplant that we plug into our skulls and expirience videogames like a drug. wouldn’t that be wonderful? I know I could certainly use a Hit of Crack-wareoware-alla-techwars high. and this free online deal is so we can all mind frag eachother with the new metroid game…only about sixty years untill this happens, i can promise that!
April 27th, 2005 at 6:17 am
Im sure that the supersmash bros online play alone is going to be awesome. Wow, this launch seems really good so far, it looks like i have to buy all the games u mentioned so far for the launch.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:19 am
Mandrid the cerebral neural system you describe has been recently patented by Sony.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:20 am
I’d like to finally see what Zoonami has up their sleeve, if it’s this or something else. We’ve been waiting way too long for info.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:22 am
Once again, the things you write Aries is awesome, and I’m not asking you any guaranty that you are telling the truth cause you can’t give any.
I’ll just hope. If it’s true though, Nintendo will have a great E3.
And is one of those 7 titles another Zelda? Could it be…?
April 27th, 2005 at 6:24 am
I don’t think Nintendo is going to show any Zelda Revolution glimpse at E3. That would eclipse the Gamecube title.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:26 am
1) I am dissapointed there won’t be a Too Human showing for a nintendo console, but oh well.
2) I think that ‘Mario 128′, which they have at times said to be for cube, will probably be for revolution - unless there are actually two seperate Mario games in production, one for cube and one for revolution. Care to touch on this at all?
3) I’m thrilled about smash bros, any information about SSB is much appreciated, and I want any more you’ve got (even if they are rumors, etc)
4) That FPS sounds interesting, but I’m more of a fan of the perfect dark/goldeneye style of games, with more ‘down to earth’ bits, but who knows. You said, though, that the controller can get hot. I don’t think this is economical from battery life’s point of view, as it will suck em up like nobody’s business!
Can you touch on how far any of these are down the road? How are they visually? Are they far enough to be a realistic expectation for launch?
April 27th, 2005 at 6:27 am
well if there is a zelda in the works for revolution, i think it may be windwaker 2 as myamoto(sp?) said there will be a sequal to it. But anyways, i doubt they can complete a whole new game by that time. I rather them wait and work on it and make in online ^^. (BTW i may be wrong with the sequal to windwaker thing)
April 27th, 2005 at 6:28 am
Like Reggie said, Nintendo is changing. They aren’t going to sit around and let Sony and Microsoft steal all of their marketshare. I think they are going to do very well next generation. But it won’t be a cake walk or anything. I still think the PS3 is going to win the next generation. It is alot closer to completion than many think, and at E3 they will show off some amazing stuff as well.
I will tell you guys about the other four titles later. Zelda is not one of them, although I have seen some preliminary designs for the new one. Go look at the Elder Scrolls: Oblivion pics, and then put Link into those environments. A beautiful sight indeed.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:33 am
@mastermind: no I wasn’t saying they would show a new Zelda at the show. Indeed, that would be a bad move.
@Aries: I think you’re right as far as PS3 is concerned. I think that if Nintendo does things right next generation, they might have more sales the generation after that one. But next generation still belongs mostly to Sony, the way I see it. I don’t think Microsoft will get a lot more marketshare then this generation. Maybe a bit more because of the early launch.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:37 am
Hey people, I can’t believe you’re all spending so much time talking about the Revolution when the real news this year will be Unintendo’s Devolution platform, a console that offers all the power of the 1984 Intellivision - and then some. It will be backward compatible with text-based adventure games as well.
My super-duper-tip-top-secret industry-ultra-insider contacts have hinted to me that the machine will also feature the new smell-feedback system… imagine those first-person combat games in Smell-O-Rama, and you are beginning to get an idea of what we’re talking about…
are we having fun yet?
April 27th, 2005 at 6:37 am
Hey Aries,
Was your co worker right about the revolutionary function of the machine?
April 27th, 2005 at 6:43 am
Monkey C: He’s not my co-worker. I don’t even know him, unless of course someone else from my studio is on this blog. That is an interesting idea, but not close.
With respects to the Mario game, it is not Mario 128. Mario 128 is a Gamecube game, and it should be shown at E3 this year. The Mario game for the Revolution is still in development, and right now Miyamoto is just using it as a tech demo so to speak. There is a story and everything, but the game is far from finished. I think everyone will be very impressed by it.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:43 am
One thing I want to mention is that I plan to post pictures of Wave Race for Revolution in a couple hours. These are renders of levels, characters, etc. It’s something to look out for.
I really do believe that the next gen graphics will all look the same. On the other hand, it’s all going to come down to one thing. What system will you get the most power out of? It surely won’t be the Xbox 360. Xbox 360 will look nice for the first couple years, but then you’ll ask yourself, “So wait, that’s it?” You’ll see what I mean.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:44 am
Mario 128 a GameCube game? Man, you’re saying everything Nintendo fanboys want, that’s what so scary about it. It also makes it slightly unbelievable. But I’m not judging. I’m waiting. Waiting….
April 27th, 2005 at 6:47 am
Wave Race pics eh? Aries you just making this day better and better. Want a cookie?
April 27th, 2005 at 6:49 am

Whoever is trying to inpersonate me is a joke. I am not going to reveal any screen shots; that would be suicide. Besides, I don’t have any of Nintendo’s games.
Moz: Remember, Reggie has already confirmed that it will be for the Gamecube. I’m not the first one to say that. I don’t see where it fits though. Zelda is coming out in November, and I doubt Nintendo will release Mario 128 at the same time. But does that mean it will be released early next year? I doubt that. We’ll see I guess.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:51 am
I don’t doubt that Aries is a developer, but I also think he knows less than he lets on and is enjoying being looked up to by fans who are frankly starved for information. There are other developers on here besides him, some of us just do a better job of keeping our mouths shut until we know facts from fiction.
If Nintendo is indeed planning to do something “clever” or “tricky” with the Revolution announcement at E3, I’m curious as to why anyone outside the company itself would know anything about it. It’s quite possible for such things to leak, but 3rd parties are generally not in the loop like that.
Also, speaking just as a game mechanics designer, I have my doubts about pressure sensitivity being a good throttle control for racing games. The GC controller has pretty good pressure sensitivity on its L/R triggers, yet F-Zero doesn’t use those for acceleration for the simple reason that people’s hands get tired from squeezing something hard continuously for too long.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:52 am
IF you’re going to show Wave Race and the pics look well enough… then man, you’re really a respectable source. And a bit of a party pooper since ya telling everyone what’s going to be on E3… only kiddin
But one more thing: It sounds like quite a few important development teams are working on Revolution (you’re not from Ubi Soft or Free Radical are you?), which means they’re at least interested in the Revolution. Do you hear opinions about Nintendo’s new console? What’s the general vibe surrounding it? Are developers satisfied, impressed even? What’s the opinion at your work?
And do you know if Revolution will be the final name?
Plus, thanks for sharing all these things that may turn out to be true, heh.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:53 am
Are you sure someone is ‘impersonating’ you coz they are doing it very well
April 27th, 2005 at 6:54 am
Oh, Wave Race pictures was fake.
Anyway I still want to hear your answers on my question Aries! If you have the time. Which you seem to have right now.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:56 am
“Also, speaking just as a game mechanics designer, I have my doubts about pressure sensitivity being a good throttle control for racing games.

thats stupid. last time i checked, its harder to press down the L or R button completely than it is to slightly depress it. using pressure sensitive controls of course is a good idea. If it’s done right it’s not like the xbox’s triggers which can be much too stiff.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:57 am
Yeah I figured that was a fake too cause showing pictures would be suicidal.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:58 am
Aries is making this up
April 27th, 2005 at 6:59 am
He has been freestyling this whole time.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:59 am
“Aries is making this up ”
As long as you haven’t got proof of that, it’s as valid as what’s Aries saying. That means: not valid enough.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:00 am
No one is impersonating aries
thats just him making things up and then realising his inconsistencies.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:01 am
He is a great story teller though
April 27th, 2005 at 7:02 am
No, I don’t work for Ubisoft.
I would say the development world is very excited about the next generation of consoles. As I talk to people, I get the sense that everyone wants to explore this new territory. Everyone wants to make the next Super Mario Bros. With respects to the Revolution, there was some hesitation to develop for it. Now, everything is different. As you all know, the development costs for the Xbox 360 are very high. The same can be said of the PS3, although it is easier to develop for than the Xbox 360. But with the Revolution, everything is cheaper and easier to navigate. All the features I mentioned greatly expand what we can do with games. People are looking forward to this machine, don’t worry.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:03 am
@Wings: I have to say, that is a theory I also have, since the ‘impersonator’ sounds exactly the same.
But it doesn’t matter. I’m staying here till I find out if it’s true or not. That means till E3. If Aries will be shown wrong coming E3, then we will be able to say to him: “Harhar, you were wrong. You faker!” And then… yeah… well… yeah. Then I’ll crawl away silently.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:04 am
I’m sure if Aries posted shots/renders from Waverace, then this would confirm his integrity and we can get on with being excited.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:05 am
How can development costs be cheaper when graphics are supposed to be even better?
April 27th, 2005 at 7:05 am
But how can the costs be lower for the Revolution? Since you’ll have to learn to inplant these new gameplay elements and you cant do simple ports (well you can do, but you said yourself that companies like EA want to do something special)… those things make costs higher if you think about it with common sense.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:06 am
I mean for the revolution
April 27th, 2005 at 7:07 am
Will we be getting better graphics on the revolution, with cheaper development costs?
April 27th, 2005 at 7:11 am
“Cheaper” could easily just mean “Cheaper than deving for the 360 and PS3″ as the Rev will be using the Gamecube developer tools…
April 27th, 2005 at 7:11 am
oh wait, i think that was the ‘impersonator’ again
April 27th, 2005 at 7:13 am
Nintendo has alot of money, and finally they are throwing it around. As Reggie stated once, Nintendo actually paid for the development kits for the DS and sent them to certain developers. They are doing the same thing with the Revolution. Many aquisitions are going to be revealed at E3.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:14 am
Well, if all this isn’t true, I hope Nintendo are taking notes
April 27th, 2005 at 7:14 am
“thats stupid. last time i checked, its harder to press down the L or R button completely than it is to slightly depress it. using pressure sensitive controls of course is a good idea. If it’s done right it’s not like the xbox’s triggers which can be much too stiff.”
Read what I wrote again. If F-Zero used L/R for throttle, you’d be pressing it down completely almost all the time (as you want to be traveling at top speed far more often than not). And that’s a fatigue-causing action. With a comparable pressure-sensitive throttle control, you’d be exerting maximum pressure for long periods of time, and that’s not smart ergonomics.
Pressure sensitive control is better for specifying a value within a range and then releasing to commit or leave it engaged… like, say, the L/R inventory navigation in the Metal Gear games, or the difference between a “quick tap” Mario jump or a long hovering one.
I don’t doubt that someone might actually USE the pressure control in an un-ergonomic way, I’m just saying it’s stupid and you can bet Nintendo wouldn’t do something that will tire out people’s hands, on what is supposed to be their most accessible system ever.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:15 am
Now that is just outlandish
April 27th, 2005 at 7:16 am
na, i disagree. F-zero machines are so powerful that holding down the accelerator would be suicide.
in racers you either accelerate at max speed or don’t. in future racers with real pressure sensitive controls if you hold down the accelerator the most you can, your tires should spin and you should lose control.
sometimes it could be used poorly, yeah, but they could easily implement it properly without that kind of concern.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:17 am
I know your in the industry and everything, but how would you know about any acquisitions?
Why hasn’t Matt hinted on anything you have said?
He must know at least something, and if he did, he would have hinted it already
April 27th, 2005 at 7:17 am
man thats all bullshit. your just some sony fanboy cow who wants to make all nintendo fans feel really bad. the first few posts where from the real guy but this stuff about Waverace revolution is complete turd unless you can prove it with screenshots. and we all know that the next gen consoles will be hell better so we expect those waverace pics to look hell better the blue-storm.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:23 am
Aries,
For the most part, I believe what you are saying. This info has got me exited about a Nintendo system . I havent been this interested in nintendo since the release of the N64 years ago. Enough about that. My question is, do you no anything about A Super Mario 128 or any other first party release software? Another question is, if Nintendo has a big show planned, why wait so long to release the system? Rumors say Holiday 2006… Is there any validity to those rumors?
April 27th, 2005 at 7:24 am
He said it wasnt from him god get a grip. Developing could be cheaper if perhaps Nintendo provided a preprogrammed framework that made things much easier on developers. Don’t ask me what it would do though cause I don’t have a clue.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:25 am
Derek, what would it do?
April 27th, 2005 at 7:26 am
i just dont want to be screwed over by some sony fanboi.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:26 am
Please delete my previous post as I completely forgot to refresh this page and see Aries’ new info. My apologies
April 27th, 2005 at 7:28 am
OK……….I think we scared him off
April 27th, 2005 at 7:29 am
people need to chill out.
the WORST possible scenario is that everything here is a complete fabrication, and we find this out in less than 3 weeks, along with real information about what’s going on. take it easy people, come on.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:36 am
More on the games:
As I mentioned many times, a new Wave Race is in development, and it should be at E3. Many people wrote off the Gamecube as a weak, baby console, but the Wave Race game on it proves that it is very capible. The water effects in that game are amazing; they still look very good today. With the new Zelda and the water in it, Nintendo is again showing how good they are at what they do. But I think this Wave Race is going to top everything out there in respects to graphics. It is going to be the GT of water racing games. You will be able to around in many different levels, all of which will sport many obstacles for the player. For instance, one early design I saw had a racer avoiding enormous cruise ships, which could destroy your speeder if you got too close to it.
One of the more interesting games I saw was a totally new IP. Outside of Geist, Nintendo has never really worked on a “mature” game. This all is going to change. They are working on a 3rd person action game that is very, very interesting. When Ninja Gaiden came out, I remember hearing that Aonuma was really into the game. I found this very interesting, but I didn’t take much interest into the story. Later, one of my co-workers showed me what he was working on. Nintendo, along with Hideo Kojima, are working on a futuristic action game. There is a reason why Kojima isn’t directing the next Metal Gear game. He’s been working with Nintendo on this game. In many ways, it reminded me of a apocolyptic, futuristic version of Zelda and Ninja Gaiden mixed. The earliest ideas I heard involved a cult of humans (humans are near extinction) who are menacing a cybernetic country. In the game, humans were almost wiped out by a race of higher beings, who then created cybernetic humans to take their place as rulers of the planet (not earth). The main character is one of the synthetic robots. Very, very interesting. I only got to see this one time, and I pray it will be at E3.
More later. I haven’t been getting the amount of sleep I thought I would during my break. I will talk about a couple more games later. I’ll also clear up some rumors floating around about Camelot and what they’re up to.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:39 am
stop bullshiting us. nows not the time to make jokes about this shit. if you are a hoax admit it now.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:40 am
Alright this is getting too much. This is reaaaally pushing it to the edge. I don’t know, it’s a little too much to be believable.
And I also dont understand why you post everything in short bursts. Would it hurt to post everything at once? Or do you have to have some time to make all this nonsense up?
April 27th, 2005 at 7:40 am
Nintendo Revolution will be teh Megaton. TLHBO!
April 27th, 2005 at 7:41 am
I really admire this guy
April 27th, 2005 at 7:42 am
Oh no, now even the Gamespot System War goons have found this place *points at the Lemming basher*
April 27th, 2005 at 7:43 am
hes a fakeboy. the first few posts of Aries might of been genuine but now someone else is using his name to bullshit everyone. if he’s real, im sorry but its more than likely hes a fakeboy and is really a cow.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:43 am
GameSpot System wars, prolly from System Wars II, should have guessed.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:44 am
sorry
April 27th, 2005 at 7:44 am
See there is a fake Aries those last two posts were fake I think.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:44 am
That was the impersonator again
April 27th, 2005 at 7:45 am
Take a nap so you can keep on spoiling.
Thanx for the info, hope all of this is true !!!
Gracias hermanito !!!
April 27th, 2005 at 7:45 am
Takes one to know one.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:46 am
What the hell is wrong with this site anyway?
Why is it so easy to take someone elses screen name?
April 27th, 2005 at 7:46 am
Its just a blog, it’s not used to so many people wanting to impersonate others.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:46 am
The last 2 were from me
April 27th, 2005 at 7:47 am
“Its just a blog, it’s not used to so many people wanting to impersonate others. ”
LOL
April 27th, 2005 at 7:47 am
“Nintendo Revolution will be teh Megaton. TLHBO!”
Idiot. I think I have given you guys a lot of solid information, and on May 17th you’ll see that I have been very truthful. Like I said, I will post more information about games later. There are a lot of hateful people out there who can’t stand Nintendo, and I think that is being demonstrated by these impersonators.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:47 am
your going to have to do better than that aries, prove that your not an impersonator little cow and tell us something that is very believable. show us that waverace pics for sure and dont give us bluestorm pics.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:48 am
I dint like waverace on GCN and I wont like waverace on REV.Idont like the waverace series.My humble opinion. Ok?
April 27th, 2005 at 7:48 am

April 27th, 2005 at 7:49 am
Aint brooke supposed to be saying something today?
April 27th, 2005 at 7:52 am
meh.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:54 am
kentank just chill out and shut up about wave race. The pics comment was from the imposter so chill out and let him type. If you don’t like it go read something else.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:07 am
kentank’s obsession with cows scares me ;_;
April 27th, 2005 at 8:09 am
Right now I´m sure that Aries fooled us all the whole time! I just don´t think, that he would know so much about all the other games in developement.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:13 am
Everything Aries says sounds like a Nintendo fanboys wet dream. I’m not sure what to think. Oh well, e3 isn’t much further away.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:13 am
one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes.

April 27th, 2005 at 8:15 am
Once again, you will see at E3. I think this year’s E3 is going to be Nintendo’s rebirth. The Revolution will suprise many, many people. On many occasions, Nintendo has stated that the DS is a great example of what they want to do with the Revolution. This isn’t the best example in my opinion. Both systems do have voice control, and the online systems will be somewhat similar, but outside of that they are totally different.
The Revolution, Zelda, and the DS announcements are going to make this E3 Nintendo’s. Sony also has some very interesting tricks up their sleeves.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:16 am
Hell, someone even tried to fake me, with just posting a dot… who in their right mind would want to act like ME? Haha. Some people, I tell ya.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:22 am
Don’t you think this is all…. a little TOO good to be true?
Doesn’t seem that almost everything that is being said is EXACTLY what Nintendo fans have been longing to hear?
Hmm
What booth are you going to be at E3?
I’m going to be there, if your right… I’ll come by and shake your hand. If your wrong… well, that’s just bad sport my friend.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:24 am
haha I can be Aries too.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:25 am
I guess one thing that I’ve noticed is Nintendo has been awefully quiet lately. Zelda is the only thing we’ve seen on the horizon for GameCube, so Nintendo and their 1,000+ staff are obviously working on things we don’t know about.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:25 am
why would he tell you the booth he will be at it could give away his company.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:28 am
one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes.

April 27th, 2005 at 8:30 am
FUCK YES! Except I beleive nintendo stated that they would not have a screen on there controller. But an inresting piece that someone did throw out there was having the joystick be a pad that tracks you thumb movement. Anyway its all hush hush and roumors so we wont know till E3.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:31 am
This guy is full of fuckin shit, I’m a big Nin. fan and this shit is too good to be true. Anyone who believes him is going to be very upset at E3, and what about Brooke you think he pulled his theory out of his ass.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:34 am
Yes Brooke pulled his theory out of his ass, he said it himself, he’s just analysing. It can go either way.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:34 am
Aries knows what he’s saying, or at least the real one at that.
one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes.

April 27th, 2005 at 8:35 am
Paladin: You are very correct. Nintendo is known for being very secretive. I felt that hurt them this generation, but in 19 days you will be very happy. Last year, they suprised everyone with the new Zelda game. No one knew it was in development. The Gamecube has some more suprises up its sleeve, including Mario 128. Although many people may be disappointed by it, it is a stunning game.
With regards to the Revolution, many people still don’t expect it to be anything. As I have pointed out, it will be very impressive. Although it isn’t as powerful as the PS3, it still is capible of many things not seen in gaming before.
The DS has also seen alot of bad press lately, and rightfully so. Nintendo dropped the ball on the launch. But once you see some of the stuff they have lined up for this year, you will be very suprised. I love the PSP, but the DS just will have superior software out on the market first. Of course, I don’t know much about what Sony will show at E3 concerning the PSP. Whatever it is, I doubt it will be more interesting than Mario Kart, Metroid Hunters, and some of the suprises Nintendo has ready.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:35 am
Anyone, do you know Aries? And why are you repeating that sentece the whole time?
April 27th, 2005 at 8:38 am
I’m not trying to descredit you or anything, but let me try this from another angle.
Nearly the minute any leak regarding the XboX 360 hits the web, its picked up by nearly every minor and major game news site. And all things consider, even when the systems launch is only like 6 months away, there hasnt been a TENTH of the information leaked in all this time about the Xbox then what is going on here with the Revolution. And Nintendo is said to be the most tightly-lipped company out there.
What I’m saying is, how come there are no wide spread news reports on what is all being said here? Granted, this may be so much information and too recently for reporting, but it just seems odd to me.
Also, even with the leak of one small picture, Microsoft is up in arms looking for the leak. You can bet punishment will be delt swiftly when it is found.
The information disclosed here would surely, insantly get an NDA issued, or get you fired. It isn’t hard at all to trace who you are if you by the people in the know if they wanted… how many people could possibly be working on a Vectorman for Sega that worked at Nintendo for 5 years recently? It would be in your file, on your resume, etc.
Unless you had nothing to fear and we’re just making this up.
I’m not saying you are. I mean, this information is so indepth, it’s just its so much so fast, I feel like I’m choking on all of it, which makes me suspicious.
Either way, thanks for the good time, ha
April 27th, 2005 at 8:40 am
Aries: any hints on the new DS stuff?
April 27th, 2005 at 8:42 am
I don’t know Aries but much of his company and the relation. The sentance states where the industry will go. More later.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:47 am
Aries, do you know if Nintendo has 2 mario games planned. One for the GC and one for the Revolution at launch?
April 27th, 2005 at 8:48 am
I really hope all this is true. It does sound too good to be true, though. Aries, I don’t remember if you said it or not, but did you say what disk format the Revolution will be using? What about load times, etc? How does Nintendo expect to have a wireless controller with all those features without putting significant drain on the battery? Lastly, any rumors about a new Metroid for Revolution?
April 27th, 2005 at 8:52 am
Hesitant, you make some good points. I feel I haven’t released enough details to violate anything. You still don’t know who I work for. If my company is upset, I’d be very suprised.
Most of the leaked information on the Xbox 360 is false. Spong has been working overtime to release as much “info” that they think they heard, and they hit a home run every now and then. They got it right about the wireless controllers for instance.
Nintendo is very secretive. But even when posters revealed the DS to the world, they didn’t do an investigation or something like that.
If I revealed the “revolutionary” aspect of the console, gaming sites would take notice. Nintendo would also take notice, and they would probally find me. So far no one has come close to discovering Nintendo’s secret weapon, which I find quite interesting. I’m not the only guy out there revealing information on the Revolution. But I think most people don’t want to ruin Nintendo’s plans. If it was revealed, E3 wouldn’t be as interesting.
Because I work for a developer, I am connected to many different people who know more than I do. We are all waiting for E3 like little kids wait for Santa Claus. Once it gets here, the flood gates will be opened. There are many sites and magazines out there that know a whole lot about what’s going on, but they can’t reveal it yet. For instance, Matt from IGN has a lot of details on Silicon Knights as well as their game. He just can’t tell you guys yet.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:56 am
I believe you about matt. I remember he spent about a weeks time at silicon knight’s studio.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:58 am
So Aries, what is going on with Camelot?
April 27th, 2005 at 9:02 am
After E3, I’m sure many people will dust off their DS’ and start getting excited. Like I said, Metroid Hunters and Mario Kart are very good games. NST gave people a mere glimpse into what they are doing with the Hunters demo. The final version will be very different and much better
As you know, Nintendo will release details on the online plans for the system. That will be very interesting.
Nintendo has three Mario games in development. One for the Gamecube, one for the Revolution, and one for the DS. Like I stated earlier, Mario 128 will be a Gamecube title. The Revolution game is early in development, but it will be shown at E3 in video form. Once Mario 128 is completed, I’m sure Miyamoto will go back to work on the Revolution followup.
Retro isn’t working on a new Metroid. The game I mentioned earlier will be their first Revolution title.They are also working on a DS game.
I can’t comment on the disk format, because that would give away far too much. All I’m going to say is that the disk format will play an interesting role in the “revolutionary” aspect of the console. The battery issue is also involved with this part of the console, so I won’t comment on that either.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:02 am
so what is the media being used? HD-DVD and BRD recently announced an alliance…will they go with that? **hopes**
April 27th, 2005 at 9:03 am
Do you know if the system will have a hard drive?
April 27th, 2005 at 9:04 am
I hear Panisonic’s been working on some new type of media format. Could that be it?
April 27th, 2005 at 9:05 am

Yea, right.
You sound less and less believeable by the minute.

Camelot is not working on a new Golden Sun game. They are not woring on the DS either. Before I left Nintendo, they began working on the Revolution. They are working on creating a new RPG to combat Final Fantasy, which is strange. Square Enix is working on an RPG for the Revolution’s launch, so I don’t think Camelot’s game will be a launch title. If Square Enix leaves Sony (which is not a big if), they could possibly rejoin with Nintendo. Or they could wind up with Microsoft, but I doubt that.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:06 am
I see a lot of people from the IGN boards are here…lol
April 27th, 2005 at 9:09 am
Cardridges? Download stuff and just save them on gigantic cardridges, like the N64 DD?
A few things:
- I could’ve told anyone that Matt knows more about SK. Duh. He said that so many times. He said when he went to see SK for a week. Or was that cancelled… I dont know that anymore. Anyway, it’s not important for this discussion.
- I can only guess about the secret thing Nintendo has in store for us, but Im sure youre not going to say to anyone he’s right, even if he’s right.
- From the things you say, I get the feeling that we’ll be playing Nintendo’s game this E3 show. We’re even playing it now. Nintendo is playing with us. You said just watch the movie ‘The Game’. Are the going to fool the world with their pre-E3 press conference? Or the entire E3 right till the end? So that the first days Zelda and DS games can catch some press coverage, and safe the best for last? Are they deliberately going to say they aren’t showing any Revolution stuff? And then at the last day still do it? Has Nintendo made up that rumour a few weeks back that hit the net, that there would be no Revolution? All these questions… pfew.

You doubt that? Welcome to the internet, my friend.
Oh, and why hasn’t Brooke commented here? Does he know this discussion is going on here?
April 27th, 2005 at 9:16 am
Nintendo owns a good portion of stock in squaresoft actually as well. It is possible that they could buy back shares and take a majority holding in it.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:16 am
I have seen jokes on the internet, but none this big, even if it is one.
Most of the stuff he’s been saying has to be true. You can’t just pull stuff like that out of your ass without knowing some things.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:17 am
What is wrong with you people? I can’t believe you are all falling for this rubbish! The only reason you are all believing is because it’s what you WANT to hear! If he had made the same claims but with stupid game ideas, NONE of you would believe it. He’s baiting you because you all love Nintendo. Think about it, less than 3 weeks ago, even Satoru Iwata said he had no idea how they were going to unveil Revolution at E3. Second, I can GUARANTEE you that NO ONE knows about their E3 plans other than the exectutives of the company. They don’t even let their common employees know about it, let alone a developer from another company. Thirdly, all of the “useful” information is the exact same stuff that Matt from IGN talks about every day in his mail section. If I were you, I’d take a better look at Matt’s mailbag, because all the stuff that this guy is saying that you are all falling for, is the near exact opposite of what Matt says every day.
Aries is playing you all like a fiddle and you are letting him. Accept it, you are all believing because you WANT to believe him. Just let Nintendo show its own hand. You are all setting yourself up for one HUGE disappointment if you believe all this. Sorry.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:18 am
Aries,
I hope you’re not making this up- it would be great to see Nintendo learn from its mistakes and summon all its resources and creativity to make a great console launch.
That Retro FPS, though- the controller can get “hot”? What’s that about?
April 27th, 2005 at 9:20 am
Hey Aries,
U said that the revolutionary aspect of the console is related to the disk format. I was wondering, i’d read earlier somewhere that theres a new, more efficient, and faster way to read disks. This involves the lens rotating around the disk where as right now disk’s spin inside a cd drive. Does this relate in any way to Nintendo’s Revolutionary feature? And i’ve heard that the format of the disk is dual sided mini dvd’s that can hold a max capacity of 5.4 gigs? is that any where close to what they’re going to be using?
April 27th, 2005 at 9:20 am
Dude, stop the preaching, like, only a smart portion of the people here are really, REALLY believing it.
I’m not falling for it, just speculating. At least there’s discussion here, which is interesting.
There probably are a few people here who believe in it… that’s their problem. Just accept nothing and you’ll be fine.
That doesn’t mean that I think Aries is LYING… I’m just not placing any bets.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:23 am
I don’t know about the hardware aspects he’s said so far, but certain things have backing. For example, Nintendo working on 7 games for Revolution. They’ve been very quiet for at least the past year or two. With all those dev studios it’s hard to believe that they’re just sitting there twiddling their thumbs
April 27th, 2005 at 9:23 am
Aries, I would like to talk to you about this over e-mail. I have a few questions to ask you.
Here’s mine if you wish to send me yours:

@derek: do you have a better suggestion? Why is it that everyone has to go with either YES or NO. If you don’t mind I’ll decide if he’s wrong or right when I see it with my own eyes at the E3 show. What’s so wrong with that, huh? Is it better to already believe in him now? Way to get your hopes up. Bravo.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:32 am
Wait a minute… I asked the guy if he worked for Ubi Soft or Free Radical…
he said he didn’t work for Ubi Soft.
Ehm…?
April 27th, 2005 at 9:35 am
I can see free radical working on a vectorman 2 game. Especially after he said that it would be online with 40 players at once. Sounds like a fast paced shooter like timesplitters.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:37 am
Glad I have a last name lol. I like this ideas here either way.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:37 am
Plus, Free Radical has a lot of good words about Nintendo in interviews I read. Plus ties with Rare. He talked about Rare.
Again, just speculating. Nothing wrong with good ol’ rumours.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:37 am
Moz,
Who cares where he works? He’s not going tell you, and quite frankly it doesn’t matter. The information he posted is pretty thorough, so stop asking questions and pretending to interrogate a suspect.
We’ll all know if he’s lying in a couple weeks.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:37 am
Convert: I’m not that crazy. The last thing I need to do is send out an e-mail.

Jeez Derek, you’re really passionate about ANYONE not agreeying with you huh? What about opinions. And I can tell you stories that look thorough, c’mon man, it’s not that hard.
I agree on the part where you say that we’ll know he’s lying in a couple of weeks though. Since that is precisely what I said a few posts earlier.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:40 am
He wouldn’t tell us either way even if we guessed right. lol I don’t wanna know where you work Aries keep it quiet and that way you can keep talking.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:41 am
You called me Convert T_T
April 27th, 2005 at 9:41 am
I think Aries has more credibility and has given more realistic information about Revolution. The rest about 3d projection is too far fetch and is not practical right now. Nintendo is probaly leaving the 3d projection to the movie industry. No point in losing huge amounts of money in technology that has not yet been proven to be like by everyone. I really hope for a succesful launch for Revoluotion. I will get PS3 and Revolution, Xbox 360 does not interest me at all, it does not bring anything new.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:43 am
Even though Aries is liyng, he’s building up the hype around the console. Personally, I’ll wait for E3, to se what Nintendo has up their sleeves.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:45 am
Aries, since you know so much about whats going on with Nintendo.
Explain what happend with this peripheral.
http://cube.ign.com/articles/505/505413p1.html
This backs up what Broken Saints was saying about 3D.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:45 am
Hey Aries/Brook, if you two could talk to each other somehow and then maybe Brook could confirm if this guy would know what he is talking about? Since Brook was in the industry.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:46 am
Aries- Do you know when Nintendo is planning to launch Revolution?I know it will launch after Xbox 360, MS is so confident about launching before everyone else and winning the race. I believe it might end up like the DreamCast.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:46 am
You know, I am trying to you (Aries) the benefit of the doubt, but how can you put your faith in someone that cannot spell “capable” correctly?
You failed to do numerous times it’s scary.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:50 am

April 27th, 2005 at 9:53 am
This pretty much means one thing:
We’re in the period right before E3 where anyone can post something on a message board (or in this case blog) and get tons of attention. E3 rocks every year, baby!
April 27th, 2005 at 9:54 am
I would really like to hear something from Brooke about all this stuff Aries wrote.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:56 am
Well, true or not, there’s been some interesting spec put forward here. While I’m doubtful as to how and why a worker for a 3rd party developer knows so much about the inner plans and workings of so many other developers, I have to say it’s been a very good read.
And yeah, i’m here from the IGNB as well.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:58 am
The only journalist I trust is Matt from IGN. Now there’s a man with connections, honesty, and journalistic integrity. Long live Matt!
April 27th, 2005 at 10:00 am
Matt, please, stop posting under falls identities.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:01 am
The peripheral shown at E3 2004 had nothing to do with 3D functionality. Brooke’s points on that were pure speculation. I can confirm that a peripheral was shown there.
http://cube.ign.com/articles/542/542655p1.html?fromint=1
“Earlier today, Nintendo confirmed that Mario Party 6 will employ a microphone, settling a prolonged bout of speculation. Nintendo fans have been spouting rumors across dozens of message boards ever since Nintendo publicized its desire to introduce a new peripheral to the marketplace. Fans entertained all sorts of ideas, the most bizarre of which saw Nintendo releasing a re-vamped Power Glove.
Well, it’s not a Power Glove. It’s a microphone.”
So does that convince you? Brooke didn’t look into that information enough.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:02 am
you still havent answered my question Aries? am i far of from the truth or close?
April 27th, 2005 at 10:03 am
Well, for one thing Aries, the entire Internet message board community is following you. Good job on staying low
April 27th, 2005 at 10:03 am
Maybe the secret peripheral was a head-set for voice recognition…
April 27th, 2005 at 10:05 am
Aries i find it very hard to believe you. I want to, everything you say seems possible and probable but even if you are making vectorman or whatever i have never heard of that game untill today(ive been with nintendo since the original never messed with sega) but even if you are working on that game how would you know so many details about so many nintendo and other company games. It seems like you are just saying what you want to be true. This is a dumb argument anyway because i know we all will find out soon enough but dont give people false hopes. Then they will be dissapointed when e3 comes. But if you really do know what you are talking tell if raven blade coming back oh and kid icarus.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:06 am
The link I just provided discredits Brooke’s assumptions about the 3D peripheral.
Monkey C: I’m sorry, I can’t remember what your question was. Could you repost it?

Dylan, he already answered that question:
“Because I work for a developer, I am connected to many different people who know more than I do.”
April 27th, 2005 at 10:09 am
Aries, have you seen PDZ and is it amazing if you have? b/c PDZ is my most anticipated game
And do you know if Criterion’s FPS Black is coming out on next-gen console(s)
Also, the N64 was a great console and had alot of great games, but the Gamecube was very very disappointing so much that i got rid of it last year, but if what your saying about the Revolution is true then i might get one, along with Xbox360 and PS3
April 27th, 2005 at 10:12 am

April 27th, 2005 at 10:20 am
I second that, Derek S.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:22 am
No, I have not seen Perfect Dark Zero. I really can’t wait to get my hands on it at E3 though. I haven’t really paid much attention to Criterion’s game.
I’m about 90% sure that Raven Blade isn’t in development. As the N-Sider article on Retro states, the code for the game is still around. So, you never know. While I was at NOA, Raven Blade was not in development.
Kid Icarus…interesting. Read some stuff on IGN. They did an interview with the creator of Viewtiful Joe, and they asked him that question. He sounded like he knew something. I don’t know anything about that game though.
Woodman: You better go buy another Gamecube. Zelda, Pokemon, Fire Emblem, Mario 128, etc. Wait until E3.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:23 am
As much as I want to trust Aries, I trust IGN more. Here’s an excerpt from the mailbag from April 19th, 2005, only last week.
“Coming back to the Revolution side of things, you’re right in that there’s not much interest in the console right now. Developers just don’t seem to care. It’s kind of depressing. I call up some publishers and I have to explain to them that Nintendo has a next-generation console in development because they have never heard of it. Meanwhile, they can tell you all about Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. As someone who was here for the launch of Nintendo 64 and GameCube, I can tell you that comparatively speaking, the industry at large was much more hyped for these machines than it appears to be for Nintendo’s next console. That, any way you slice it, is bad news….And talk about Revolution within the industry is nonexistent.”
Let’s hope he was wrong.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:23 am
hey aries,
still no reply to my question?
hmmm maybe im close and you cant reveal anymore about it?
April 27th, 2005 at 10:26 am
Haha, first Anyone, now Touch… what are these riddles. Are these Nintendo employees trying to get the hype started, or just Nintendo FANBOYS.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:28 am
Well, now we’re talking about IGN, if Nintendo has something planned similar to the movie ‘The Game’ like Aries said, maybe theyve found journalists to co-operate?
What if Nintendo is trying to under-hype the whole industry, to make the E3 showing even more effective??
April 27th, 2005 at 10:29 am
Am I the only one who remembers an article posted by one of the gaming websites stating that Square Enix was going to be helping Nintendo with it’s online service? Or did I imagine that? I must’ve imgained it.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:29 am
Monkey C: I really can’t answer that question. It would spoil a lot of thing. But I have a question for you. Where did you hear that?
Hollywood: No, haven’t heard anything about Rockstar working with Nintendo. I have heard some interesting rumors about Rockstar though. They are showing a PSP GTA at E3; I’m sure you all know that though. But I’ve also heard that they might move the GTA series to the Xbox 360. This is just a rumor of course, but it makes sense to me. I’ve never liked GTA.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:30 am
Aries, I don’t know if you’re telling the true, but if that isn’t the case then I have to say that you have an outstanding imagination XD. You should be contracted by Nintendo immediatelly and give them all your ideas.
I hope that all that was true, but I prefer not to expect nothing, and “not hype” myself too much.

April 27th, 2005 at 10:32 am
Yeah. Squeenix’s PlayOnline service was going to be used with the DS. Most likely, it’ll be launched with FF:CC DS. However, that’s purely my own speculation. It would be absolutely awesome if Nintendo was having people under-hype the console. I really, really want this to be true, but I don’t know if I can believe it. And, no offense to Aries, there is no way that we can validate who he says he is. If you could give us a date for the “The Game” thing, that would make you more credible.

Just like in a real army soldiers do not agree with their leaders, but they listen. You might not agree with him, but are hitting the refresh button on this site every minute. Just look at the number of responses. The buzz is growing… look at the other message boards. This is exactly what they want. A form of advertising and hype. Hit the hardcore gamers first.

I think you have revealed enough Aries. There is no need to continue. most of our faith is renewed in Nintnendo. Can’t wait till E3.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:35 am
Ha, I knew I didn’t imagine it. You’re right, Squre Enix IS launching a similar PlayOnline service (like on their website) for the DS. If anything was to be validated today, I’d say that’s one piece of great news!
April 27th, 2005 at 10:36 am
Aries, can you please tell me if my ‘The Game’ analyses holds any truth. You know, Nintendo trying to under-hype their new console until E3? Maybe even under-hype it ON the E3 itself and at the end of the show go out with a bang?
Jeez, look at me being the info-hungry journalist. Oh well.

That’s a website posting everything from this message board.
Is that what ya’ll are hinting at?
April 27th, 2005 at 10:38 am
hmmm I feel special cause your asking me a question now. haha
No but in all seriousness I read about this new disk stuff online somewhere. I dont have an exact source. But I know for a fact that I read that new disk drives comming out in the future would be able to read double sided disks and instead of having a disk spinnning while being read by the lens, companies were making it so that the lens would rotate around the disk. This would help bring disk reading speeds higher. This is because at a certain speed while the disk is rotating, it can start to damage itself due to the speed. Im not sure if what im saying is totally correct but it’s the basic concept about what I read.
And the reason im thinking that NIntendo maybe using this concept is because it’s planning to use dual sided disks for the Rev and for that to work, they would need a drive that would be able to read top and bottom at the same time…. this would need the machine to have two seperate lenses reading the information from top and bottom but at the same time the lens would rotate around the disk as both lenses would be reading two seperate pieces of information of the disk. Hence the disk does not move at all.
Sounds kinda crazy but I really have a feeling that this theory is sound.
Anyways what do you think? Is it possible for you to help me know if im correct on this or not? cuase i have a feeling im kinda close to what they’re doing which is why you cant really say anything but you havent really said that my theory earlier was wrong either so im thinking…..

April 27th, 2005 at 10:48 am
“it’s planning to use dual sided disks for the Rev and for that to work, they would need a drive that would be able to read top and bottom at the same time”
That set my imagination off! If it could read the disk from both sides, and the disk would not have to move, add gyroscopic technology and the fact that the disk method used is part of the ‘revolution’ How about a hand-held gyroscopic console where the controller and the console are part of the same device. The disk is read from within the device while built-in sensors detect movement, pressure, etc and translate all this wirelessly to a reciever in the TV.
I have no idea what the advantages of this would be but to me it sounds cool. [/spec]

April 27th, 2005 at 10:53 am
At first I was instantly convinced by what Aries is saying, but the more and more he posts, I am more and more convinced that he’s just making it all up.
For instance, in one of his last posts he said that Nintendo are to make many accuisitions. I mean comon. He’s telling us EXACTLY what we want to hear.
Think about it. Combine all the suggestions and hopes of Nintendo fans all over the world from forums and such, and you get this blog.
It sounds like this guy just reads messageboards and come up with stuff that he knows we’ll love.
He’s probably trying to teach us some kind of lesson. Something about instant gratification and stuff like that.
I want all of this to be true. I really do. But all of this can’t possibly be true. If all that he wrote was true Nintendo are on easy street.

Whoevers doing the Aries impersonations…chill your beans out dude…you are majorly screwing around man
April 27th, 2005 at 10:54 am
Aries I hope you noticed that no one really responded to him we are starting to figure out who the imposter is luckily. Would brat-sampson have a good idea and combine it with what i said like it being a power glove or something fully controlling everything in the game ala minority report or something.

Here is the big Nintendo Revolution secret
You know how there is very little official info on Nintendo Revolution. How everyone is mad frustrated and angry ? Well thats because we are looking at the wrong place. Becuase all the Revolution infos are right below our nose , in plain sight. You know how the next Xbox is names Xbos 360 and 360 = one revolution. They are one and the same !!!
XBOX REVOLUTION !!!
April 27th, 2005 at 10:55 am
My guess is Adrenium Games?
April 27th, 2005 at 10:56 am
salt should be made mandatory with all revolution discussions.

Aqw, that was the most original news I’ve heard in two days. It’s about time something made me smile.

I know someone’s mentioned this already today, but I’ll remind you. Make sure you all see the next issue of Electronic Gaming Monthly. The stuff they have on Zelda is absolutely goose bumpingly good. The scans I’ve seen are amazing.

I don’t have them, I found them on another message board. Here, give me a few minutes, I’ll find them…
April 27th, 2005 at 11:04 am
Another reason why i believe that the machine will be using mini dvd’s is because it’s backwards compatible… and the way a gamecube disk is manufactured, it is read from the outer rim to the middle. And regular dvd’s roms and drives read from the middle out. Nintendo wouldnt stray away from this as it would be more difficult to make the machine backwards compatible. so for now i believe that the dual sided mini dvd’s are the format being used by nintendo :0) Not a bad ting if they have the whole twin lenses readin the disk… imagine a gamecube game with frustrating load times, this may actually make it possible for that game to start up relativly faster
April 27th, 2005 at 11:04 am
“Maybe monkey c monkey doo is on the right track. What if the lens is the one that spins(or makes revolutions). ”
How does that change the way we play games?
How does that make development costs cheaper?
How does that simplify our controls?
If that is true, it will increase the size of the revolution
(Think Xbox x 2)
April 27th, 2005 at 11:05 am
Monkey C: You are very smart; that is all I’m going to say regarding the disk formats.
Super Hitman: I’m not telling you what you want to hear. Nintendo has been dropping the ball time after time, but with this console they are finally getting better. Sure, many of the things I said sound very good. I have also mentioned some things that don’t sond so good. For instance, I mentioned that the “revolutionary” aspect of the system isn’t what Nintendo says it is. I have said Mario 128 may disappoint a lot of people. I feel that Miyamoto hyped this game up far too much. I have said that Rockstar is not working on the Revolution. I confirmed that Raven Blade isn’t in development. Many of these things don’t sound good, Hitman, but I still mentioned them. Overall though, I believe Nintendo’s future plans are very good.

April 27th, 2005 at 11:10 am
This is all too good to be true. I wish it all was, but I just can’t believe it.
Iwata said earlier in an interview that the Revolution may turn 3rd party developers away or they weren’t expecting to get that much support, something like that.
And now Aries is saying how everyone, except SK, is going to be developing for Nintendo. I am not buying it, just too good to be true.
Another thing, you have to be violating NDAs and the like, saying all this stuff. Someone will find out and you will be in hot water Aries.

April 27th, 2005 at 11:11 am
well, if MonkeyC’s disk info was reasonably accurate then what I said might make some sense. I can’t see why else they would want a stationary and secure disk if it wasn’t going to be shaken around. (Unless this sort of disc would hold a lot more info, I’m not too sure about this stuff. I know you said it would increase disk-read speeds but if it’s purely for the sake of information capacity why not just go for next-gen dvd technology (whatever that turns out to be now the HD/Blu-ray debacle is over))
April 27th, 2005 at 11:12 am
Just because the major companies are developing doesnt mean much. There is still a lot out there. Activision, and Vivendi havent been named for example.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:13 am

Any truth to the rumors about the Rev launching this year? Ive seen rumors that it will launch Q4, someone even posted a date of Nov 19th on a forum a few weeks ago…
April 27th, 2005 at 11:13 am
Does anyone remember the rumors about a portable gamecube level handheld. Maybe the revolution is it since it does play gamecube discs.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:14 am
BTW, Aries, about your line of work, what exactly do you do?
How long have you been in this industry?
What do you plan to do next?
April 27th, 2005 at 11:14 am
I doubt it. Nintendo said they are launching at the same time as PS3 because that’s who they see as their competition. They could care less about Microsoft. They see Sony as the main target
April 27th, 2005 at 11:14 am
Actually, Iwata said that 3rd parties would support nintendo.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:15 am
Thats because Microsoft has no chance in Japan.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:15 am
Hd dvd’s are going to be expensive, same with blu - ray. Nintendo has just found a way to lower production costs of their games. By manufacturing a dual sided disk. Also im pretty sure that because of this new reading technology, it is possible to store a little bit more information on each side of the disk. if you compare, a gamecube disk only holds 1.8 or 2.2 gigs on the disk. This new dual sided format hold 5.4. Thats more then double. Im sure theres more to this new revolutionary function nintendo is talking about and it is now obvious that this is linked to it in someway or another.

April 27th, 2005 at 11:16 am
So lets recap…
- New partnerships, Nintendo & Hideo Kojima
- Square onboard?
- More powerful than Xbox360, almost as powerful as PS3.
- gyration control - more FPS games
- Online gaming, downloadable demos, surfing, chatting
- Grip sensative handles
So all of this still isn’t including the “revolutionary aspect”? That all sounds new and revolutionary enough for Nintendo alone. How much more can be crammed into this thing to make it profitable?
yeah, sounds too good to be true. I can’t even imagine a developer being privy enough to all this information, especially since you haven’t been with NOA for a while now.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:16 am
I have a question for Aries or Monkey C about this new way to read disks with the disk moving and the lasers moving around the disk……
Can this still play DVDs? Cause if the Rev can’t read DVDs like GC, they are going to lose again to XBOX 360 and PS3.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:17 am
Derek: If anything a portable GCN will be the next GameBoy. Just imagine, it already has small discs and a large back-catalogue. Stick the hardware in a very small box, wrap a controller around it and jam a screen on the front and your done.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:17 am
Aries… Do you know something more about Square Ravolution game???
And.. What happend to Retro???… No Metroid Prime 3????
April 27th, 2005 at 11:18 am
Its hard to believe that nintendo is going to answer Sony and Microsofts home console with a super handheld. The revolution will have to be a home console. Plus, they’ve already said that the machine can be played of a computer screen as well as a tv.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:18 am

Here’s a question for you Aries, is NRev capable of 1080i? HD?
April 27th, 2005 at 11:20 am
I think that portable gamecube thing was the Gameboy Evolution rumored a few months back. Either way, most industry experts agree it’s far too early for a new handheld for Nintendo. They just released the DS, the Zelda later this year, and Revolution next fall. If they create a new gameboy, it’ll just confuse everybody. However, most people are in agreement that Nintendo will be unveling a new form of the Gameboy Advance at E3. Not a new gameboy, just a new form. You know, kinda like the SP is a different form from the original.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:20 am
Haha, would Aries is Matt? Riiiight. This just gets weirder and weirder. It’s like Megaton all over again, everyone just adds a liiiittle bit more to make it that much weirder.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:21 am
Im not to sure what nintendo is doing as like u im a gamer not a developer like aries. But im sure that nintendo doesnt care that their machine doesnt play dvd’s. Nintendo makes machines for one reason only. To play games. The online portion of the revolution that Aries described was nintendo helping people play games with more people around the world. I dont see nintendo adding a the convenience of a dvd player in a machine or any machine in the future at all because truly, thats not what they’re making the machine for. but then again im a moron and it could happen haha look at the ds, it has a play yan ting for mp3s

April 27th, 2005 at 11:24 am
I have a question for Aries. If the controllers are wireless, how could they support screens, heat, and gyroscopes without having negligible battery life? It sounds great, but technically, it seems like it can’t be done.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:25 am
I just wish they would add the DVD playback feature.
My friend worked for Nintendo customer service in Redmond, WA, and the #1 call she would always get, “Why can’t my GameCube play DVDs?” The average Joe out there isn’t as hardcore of a gamer as we are.
I think it is just sad that Nintendo will skip this feature when so many ‘average’ gamers out there ask for it, or use it now on XBOX/PS2.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:25 am
Yeah? System Wars? Man, even the fact that I remember names from System Wars is offensive for me as a person. Haha.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:26 am

April 27th, 2005 at 11:26 am
So you do/do not work for Adrenium Games?
April 27th, 2005 at 11:27 am
Yes. Iwata, back at E3 2004, confirmed that feature.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:28 am
Nintendo has indeed stated that it’s machines are for games, not DVD’s. But don’t forget the number one reason for all of Nintendo’s thinking…money. Nintendo is absolutely notorious for cutting corners just to save a few bucks and make their things cheaper. That’s why the Revolution can’t be TOO revolutionary, technically speaking. They want to create a new gaming experience, but they won’t do it at the expense of the consumer. Whatever Nintendo has decided for their console, it will have to be cheap (in comparison).
April 27th, 2005 at 11:29 am
Actually there are several ways to have a screen work wirelessly. There is fuel cell batteries of course or there is a technology that has been in the works that powers devices through sending a wave length through an outlet to power a device wirelessly.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:29 am

April 27th, 2005 at 11:29 am
Yeah, the rev will connect to a pc monitor. And system wars is on the gamepot message boards.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:30 am
I am a college student, having a system play DVDs (I have an XBOX as well as a GC) is very nice, saves me money on a DVD player, I don’t care how cheap they are, and this goes for many college students.
Nintendo’s biggest audience, kids. ‘Oh, I’m sorry honey, my and dad are watching TV, you can’t watch your Spy Kid ‘X’ movie right now.” Oh wait, you can, just watch it on your Revolution in your room (most kids nowadays have their own TVs in their rooms).
Also, having a system that you can plug into any TV or computer monitor that can play DVDs is a very nice feature.
From a Mr. Joe Schmoe standpoint, not including this feature is just a disappointment.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:30 am
Do you know of any wwe games coming out for revolution. I would like to see one launch with the console but thats probably wishful thinking. It would be cool if they used the pressure sensative controller for it like when you squeeze the controller you grab on to someone that would be tight.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:31 am

Monkey C:
It’s called holographic versatile disk (HVDs).
Can hold an insane amount of data.
The lasers spin around it, it isn’t really a “disc” its like more like a cartridge.
Look at that keyword: Holographic.
Maybe THIS is where all the holographic 3D rumours are coming from, ehh??
April 27th, 2005 at 11:35 am
A colony of ants will be in greater numbers.
But an army of people will have better Tech
Ants however can sneak up. While human weaponry can’t.
If these Revolution rumors are true why aren’t there any other sources?
I dont think Aries is/was lying about this he sure knows what he is talking about. But he cant say everything he might lose his job if he does.
The mario Rumor is true i believe it. Miyamoto is also acting strange these day’s lately he told that his only project concern is Nintendogs while that game was almost finished.
If we combine the posts of Aries and Brookes we will get our answer to what the Revolution really is.
Touch! however remains a history to me…
Maybe reggie in disguise? However Reggie doesn’t know shit Iwata does…
April 27th, 2005 at 11:36 am
for all of you out there who seem to already discredited the whole 3-d aspect, in discovers december issue theres a small blurp about a company making cheap 3-d tvs that dont need glasses of any sort and in the magazine it sates”surgeons could evaluate medical conditions using lifelike visualizations while games could become more fully immersive”. When i first read that i automatically though of the nintedo rumor about displaying things on the screen @ different angles and such. i advice anyone whos sceptical to check out http://www.opticalitycorp.com im not saying this is true im just saying its more possible than people think
April 27th, 2005 at 11:36 am
These are numbers I only can dream of.
Well, I’m not thát desperate.
Tell you what Aries, you should post some stuff on MY blog. Haha.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:36 am
I’m not going to tell you what I do. I’ve given enough information about myself. I don’t plan on staying with this developer for long, to tell the truth.
I left Nintendo in 2004, but I never heard anything about a concrete launch date. From what I’m hearing now, Nintendo is watching Sony very closely. The Revolution will come out before the PS3, but I don’t know exactly when thay will happen. I am pretty sure that they will battle it out during the 2006 holiday season. That would give developers (including us) more than enough time. I can confirm that they will not be released before E3 of 2006. The Revolution won’t be on the E3 floor this year.
The portable Gamecube rumors are not credible at all. There is no “Gameboy Evolution”. I’m sure Nintendo has some plans for a new Gameboy, but it won’t be out any time soon.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:36 am
Ok, I plowed through everything new written, heres what I have to say, and ask:
Aries, I am leaning towards believing you, since no one would be so pathetic to go through all this just to insult ninty fanboys. That’d be insane. But, I doubt your credibility. Why would oyu make a rare typo when you meant to type retro? They’re very different words, and it seems like you were just trying to stir up some controversy. I will still believe you, though. If this is all lies, then at least say so at the end to put us out of our miseries. Also, you said DMC would be on REV. While this might have been an impersonator, you never corrected it. I really doubt DMC going to REV… Anyway, here are my questions
1) How do you know all this info?
2) What part of the console if affected by the big revolutionary aspect? How is it related to the disk format? ANd please jsut tell me if ninty will be re-using the same minidisk format. If the answer is yes, than all my hope will evaporate…
3)Heard anything of a new handheld, the GBE. What about it. I certainly love the ds, and I hate traditonal handhelds like PSP and GB. I just dont think they add anything new to gaming. Sadly, I dont think the ds will win against the psp, even with loads of software you say it will be getting. Thats why I hope they release a GBE that plays GC games, so ninty can sell 2 handhelds, but only has to support 1 (since GBE will already have laods of games). This would boost GC support, as well as give nintendo a direct competitor against the psp. So, is there a new GBE in development. When will it be released. Will it indeed play GC games?
4)Whats the online plan called, and what system does it effect?
5)Are nintendo going to FINALLY expand and make NEW franchises?
And gta isnt overrated, its very fun
April 27th, 2005 at 11:36 am
I have no idea what the “paradigm shift” is. Obvioiusly, it’s Nintendo’s way of generating hype for the system. But none of us here know right now what they have planned. It could be as great as Aries says, it could be as bad as other “fanboys” would have you believe. Right now, I’m hoping Brooke was right. I think 3D is a fantastic idea.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:36 am
Nah, Brooke is prolly feelin ashamed and embarassed, his claims got rubbished on his own site.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:37 am
I think that’s what they’;re called but if u look at the pic on that site from the search, the HVD is a disk not a cartridge
and if nintendo plans on making mini hvd’s for the rev, then making it backwards compatible for gamecube games shouldnt be too hard
April 27th, 2005 at 11:40 am
If the Revolution won’t be on the floor this year, will it be shown at all? And, is there any way you could validate your identity? Obviously, if you said “I’m Denis Dyack”, it would be pretty stupid, but if there’s anything like, “Nintendo will announce the name of its DS online service on May 10, just in time to build up hype for E3″, or tell us what would be at a press conference, we might have more belief in what you’re saying. I want it to be true, but obviously we have no way of knowing.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:41 am
“I’m hoping Brooke was right. I think 3D is a fantastic idea. ”
Nah, Aries claims are much more interesting than 3d.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:42 am
Nah, I was just kidding with the whole Ign thing, but as easy as I did someone else could do it, Aries`s info just sounds less far-fetched than Brooke`s, the only part I dont bite is the “great 3rd party support” thing.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:44 am
Of course it sounds farfetched now, after almost every multi-platform game is for PS2 and Xbox, but if the Revolution is as good as we hope it is, I could see it happening.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:45 am
According to him, only 6 devs are on board. Thats not too great. While devs are interested, theres no flood of games like with XB360. There may be in the future, but not now.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:46 am
I don’t believe it really has to be round-shapped like a disc.
The data can be stored on mutliple layers, and since the laser can read it from mutlipe angles, whats to stop it from being cubed-shaped?
You can store more data on it that way.
I’m not saying it will be though.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:48 am
Hesitant
where did you find that lnk for onefishtwofish…etc.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:48 am
I think using the mini-disk format was one of the reasons GC failed. It wasnt a dvd player, and it simply looks much less appealing to the mass market to use a seperate format
April 27th, 2005 at 11:49 am
I think I’ve heard just about every rumor under the sun. I can’t wait till e3 is done and overwith. I’m spent on all this speculating. Iwata is right, we’re all thinking too hard about the NRev.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:49 am
Like I said, the Revolution’s design will be shown, as well as videos and specs. The controller will not be shown.
My credibility will be proven on May 19th. I have already given you a hint about what will happen in the next few weeks. Pay close attention to some of the Nintendo related stories that will begin to pop up. So far, many have already been reported. Pay attention. And on the 19th, don’t automatically try to write me off. There is a big suprise in store for everyone. I’ve said that 100 times, but I can’t stress it enough.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:50 am
Like I said, it’s ‘The Game’… Nintendo is setting us up through news items and stuff, right? Ive said it 3 times now and you havent responded to it.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:51 am
Aries, 1080i capable or not?
April 27th, 2005 at 11:51 am
Answer my above questions, Aries, I need answers
And I believe you.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:52 am
the lens doesnt read it from multiple angles, the thoery was that instead of the disk spinning, the lens would just read the disk by moving itself on the flat surface.
having the lens read at all angles would make the machine have the disk docked in a gyro type thing which would let the lens freely rotate around.
That would truly be the most expensive thing in the world haha
April 27th, 2005 at 11:53 am
hey aries, since you used to work at noa is the school digipen still located on the first floor of the building connected to noa?

Just speculation, but I’m guessing the big surprise will be at E3. Nintendo won’t specifically say why they pulled whatever they did, but it will keep us talking until they decide to release some new info. Either way, I’m really looking forward to E3.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:54 am
It has begun.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:54 am
Is that a test question jeremiah? good job
April 27th, 2005 at 11:54 am

I actually found it somewhere on the GAF boards, heh.
Aries,
no to Adrenium Games, or should we stop trying to figure out where you work?
And HVD…?
April 27th, 2005 at 11:55 am
I think Touch! is some form of troll.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:56 am
“The Game” is a very interesting movie. Like I said earlier, check the movie out. If you want to understand what’s going to start happening in the coming weeks, watch the movie.
I am not answering any questions relating to the disk format.
On 1080i: that’s an interesting question, but I do not know the answer to it.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:56 am
Aries u said that there are articles in the news already? can u give me a few examples of some or a link to these articles as I havent heard anything about nintendo in the last few days let alone anything that was out of the ordinary
April 27th, 2005 at 11:57 am
Well lets look at the psp for an example. They are using an off beat format and are doing well. Does anyone notice that Nintendo has been a little more vocal about their new console than they were with gamecube. I think they are up to some marketing efforts.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:57 am
On 1080i: that’s an interesting question, but I do not know the answer to it.
Your NRev devkit docs don’t say anything about it?
April 27th, 2005 at 11:57 am
Now, if he said, “Check out some recent trademarks”, or “See what Nintendo has patented recently”, that would be a good clue. If they had.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:57 am
Yeah I already said Ive watched The Game tons of times, they create a movie, an adventure around you. Around the player.
So that can mean various things:
Nintendo is creating a lie around us to surprise us this E3
or
Nintendo really hsa something that makes an adventure around us
Something like that :S
April 27th, 2005 at 11:58 am
Thanks hes
And Touch! might just be a troll. Like the ones in the movie Willow. Horrible creatures.

April 27th, 2005 at 12:03 pm
So that can mean various things:

I can already think of one instance where Nintendo did that to us…Zelda.
We all thought we were getting Wind Waker 2, then BAM, realistic Zelda.
April 27th, 2005 at 12:06 pm
If your trying to hint to us about an ILoveBees style ARG (Alternate Reality Game, look it up
) Then that would be great. Something to keep Nintendo fans occupied while OC goes on.
April 27th, 2005 at 12:08 pm
This is gross speculation. I don’t understand why you people bother doing this. This is just creating rumors and hearsay. Is it really all that hard to wait until E3? It also defies logic that you listen to this fool claiming he’s “on the inside.” There’s certainly quite a few people “on the inside” when there’s a dearth of information for rabid fans.
I think building up your hopes to catastrophic levels could just leave you disappointed come E3 if Nintendo really doesn’t have this crazy Revolution they claim to. I, for one, think that it really won’t be an insanely “revolutionary” thing, but merely a few new features to add to games ala Nintendo DS. It might add a couple of new elements to gameplay, but as far as revolutionizing the industry, that I’m not so sure about. It will probably much more original than the PS3 or XBOX2 (especially having seen some of those less-than-inspring Next Gen Madden screens), but I seriously doubt it’s going to completely revolutionize gaming.
You really need to just wait and see before you up the hype level so high that you create a giant let-down for Nintendo fans.

Isn’t that what Aries just said? it’s not really that revolutionary, just adds new features?
April 27th, 2005 at 12:12 pm
Is the game bionic commando? If so, that would mean you work for Capcom. That’s the first game I can think of that had a hero who wore green (not including Nintendo properties like Link and Luigi). Or is it something even older?
April 27th, 2005 at 12:12 pm
Paladin…
I was thinking something like that… but yeah, only bigger. Already starting now, like Aries said. False news items (Nintendo maybe leaking info that Revolution WONT be on show… a few weeks back, anyone remember?)… maybe some more false newsitems in the coming weeks. Even at E3. Then when its almost over… bang, we were joking, har har har.
And Captain, we’re merely speculating. If there’s one thing fun about E3, it’s that. I’m never dissapointed because I know that nothing here is certain to be true.
April 27th, 2005 at 12:13 pm
Jazzman… you’re about 5 hours late dude.
April 27th, 2005 at 12:13 pm

we have already guessed it was vectorman. Plus he said 90’s not 80’s. Also said space soldier.
April 27th, 2005 at 12:18 pm
am i the only one who is seriously questioning aries due to the fact hes not answering my question which should be real easy if he actually did work at nintendo

If you want to see next-gen graphics look and Unreal 3.0 engine, that is just the beginning of what next-gen consoles can do
And the Madden Next Gen commercial wasn’t even in game. First off, what you’re about to see, and what you’ve been seeing in screenshots are not actual gameplay. It turns out that the commercial and all visuals released are actually an artist’s interpretation of what Madden could look like on the Next-Gen systems.

April 27th, 2005 at 12:24 pm
Maybe he’s just busy?
I mean, he’s been posting here what, an entire DAY straight already?
He’s just a man (soothsayer or liar) after all, you know.
And besides, there are 5 new posts here every 7 seconds.
Its REALLY hard to keep track of all of it, and especailly if one person is being asked a specific question 3 out of 5 posts.
I havent had questions answered either…. like Aries working for Adrenium Games
…… but don’t beat the guy up over it.
Besides, he’s prolly an intern for NOA’s marketing department, and, since we all know Nintendo reads all these boards and websites, is posting ideas for us to see how we react, spread news, start rumours = really cheap publicity/advertising.
But I jest anyway. Just trying to lighten the mood till new info comes.
April 27th, 2005 at 12:25 pm

I work for the army and we are using the new rev. interface to train soldiers. I have not signed any ND so I can spill the beans. The Rev. will actually hypnotize the player so they play the game in there sleep. That is why it does not need to be technologically advanced it is merely some strobe lights and a text based adventure spoken to the player in the hypnotic state. The graphics and play control are completely picked by the users’ mind.

One thing I want everyone to know is that they shouldn’t be too disappointed or wishful with the next Mario game for Revolution. The Mario game coming out for Revolution is a new way to look at games in general. It isn’t a 100 percent traditional Mario platform game. People should realize this before getting their hopes up.
Also, don’t expect as much support from Capcom as with GameCube. But do expect a sequel to a Dreamcast fighting game from them. I will not say what game.
Anyways, with the game I am working on, I am not even sure when it will be released. We have a lot of elements in the game that needs constant tuning and perfecting. We hope to release it close to launch, but definately not launch.
Right now I feel like I am in the middle of all you guys. You’re all trying to suck me dry of information. I will give you a hint to the revolutionary aspect of the system, but I won’t tell if you are right or wrong.
Hint: Begins with an S, ends with a T. Ten letters. Think about it.

April 27th, 2005 at 12:32 pm
Aries is just an attention whore. No matter what company he works for he can’t possibly have ALL this information. If he’s working for a major 3rd party developer, where’s all the other console news. If all this crap was real he would have broken heaps of NDA’s by now. Nintendo isn’t an information slut to 3rd parties.
You said you were a former NOA employee, if your working for a 3rd party I doubt they’d just trade secrets other 3rd parties. Your just going to spew the obvious sequels, drop some names and hope that your right.
He’s a little attention whore who’s just trying to get his 15 minutes of fame by hi-jacking this blog. At least BrokenSaints were speculating…

This is not my post. If all you can do in life is impersonate other people, you don’t have a life.
I’ve given a lot of details. The hints I have provided are very good ones, and they aren’t that hard to understand. But like many have pointed out, I can’t just sit around all day posting answers and rebuttals every 10 seconds. After this week you won’t hear too much from me.

how works the nintendo revolution online mode? is a server? it has dhcp? it has a ethernet card?
i think this is very important to know, cause this is the only way that the consumer (us.. :D) can use the online mode, as you say, very important in the nintendo revolution….
well, i wait for news
thx
April 27th, 2005 at 12:47 pm
“On 1080i: that’s an interesting question, but I do not know the answer to it.”
Aries, this is suspicious. If the Rev supported 1080, 780 or just 640, you would know that from square one. Games that run acceptably at 640 will tank at 1080, it’s one of the first things a programmer would have to know if he were to sit down and code a renderer for a new system.
So should you, if you’re a programmer or a designer. If you’re an artist or a QA tester, well, maybe that exonerates you.
If you’re an artist, I’m curious as to what 3D packages devs are using to make content for the Rev.

Hey Aries, why isn’t Capcom support Revolution like they did the Gamecube? Not that it matter, 4 of those 5 “exclusives” turned out to be ported over to the PS2 while the only exclusive game turned out to be crap.
So all we are getting from Capcom is a fighting game?

Once again, this is getting annoying.
If you all were thinking that question would “expose” me, you are mistaken. It was a pretty weak try. All I am trying to do is share some information with youu. I am not disrespecting anyone. I am very excited about the Revolution as well as all the other systems. Everything I said hangs on May 19th. When that date arrives, you will see the truth. Before then, you can choose to refuse to belief me if you like. It doesn’t matter to me. There are many people out there who know what I’m talking about.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:00 pm
I have a suggestion for Aries, to deal with this stupid impersonator who obviously is wanting attention. Aries (the real one), why don’t you make a free forum or something to continue this? No stealing of names there.

I do not work for Pseuduo Interactive.
I have no information on what Capcom is doing on the Revolution. I know that they have development kits, and it isn’t that far fetched to assume that they could be working on next gen software for the Revolution.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:04 pm
I think all this is just a product of Rare employees trying to kill time, and show the Nintendo fanboys a thing or too.
Geez, you would think they would at least try to make the X360 launch date with PD0.

i mean wher people can’t pretend to be you, my mistake
April 27th, 2005 at 1:12 pm
Aries, I’m slowly walking towards the side of believing you in this whole thing. At first I thought you were just another Chad Paulson or those people, but I honostly think you’re telling the truth now. Don’t worry about those fake Aries’, I can clearly tell a difference. And the people who are giving you a hard time about believing you? It’s understandable, as denial is always the first step for rumors. For example, when the new mature Zelda was first being talked about (before E3) nearly EVERYONE shot it down. And in truth, Chad Paulson wasn’t really lying either. Don’t worry man, I hope you can put all these crappy comments aside and realize that you have tons of peoeple excited.
May 19th can’t come closer. Any other information you can reveal would be very much appreciated, but I understand if you can’t.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:13 pm
one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes.
This is the game interface. The N5 won’t deliver it, but it will come with time, that I can guarantee. I’m confident that Aries knows and does what as he says but if not he’s a damn good guesser.
This is good for the game industry but perhaps not for society. It will soon spread to all technologies and soon they will control us rather than we control them as long as we permit. Call me crazy, but the existence and obsession of virtual reality interfaces we hear from sci-fi is possible and extremely likely. Such an interface is even now available in different forms with integrations of existing technologies and those being developed in ways never imagined, such as wave map rendering. People will want it, after all what life or entertainment could be better than complete and perfect control with the perfect perspective.
I’ve been developing a project for a few years now and still with many years to go. I considered starting a studio for it but the industry has grown too complicated for a small development team to carry out such a task. Eventually people will seek lies to follow their dreams and avoid responsibilities. Man always wants to experience something and can only understand what they experience.
Well if that’s how it’s going to be, then why not give them something to experience?

Paladin69 just pitched strike 3. Lets see him get out of that post..
heh, I’m not trying to be a smart ass, but considering this is Xbox360’s most touted feature concerning their “HD era”…you’d think Nintendo would be up front right away and make sure developers knew that NRev can also support 1080i.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:16 pm
May 17th
April 27th, 2005 at 1:16 pm
don’t worry aries im just messin with you
I truly believe you
April 27th, 2005 at 1:16 pm
“Aries, I’m slowly walking towards the side of believing you in this whole thing. At first I thought you were just another Chad Paulson or those people, but I honostly think you’re telling the truth now. Don’t worry about those fake Aries’, I can clearly tell a difference. And the people who are giving you a hard time about believing you? It’s understandable, as denial is always the first step for rumors. For example, when the new mature Zelda was first being talked about (before E3) nearly EVERYONE shot it down. And in truth, Chad Paulson wasn’t really lying either. Don’t worry man, I hope you can put all these crappy comments aside and realize that you have tons of peoeple excited.”
Haha, that or Jadrule
So many things I could say about demasked…:|
Anyway, here’s not the time or place for that, but I have to say, I’m really a lot more hyped about the rev, whether or not this stuff takes place or not.
Right now, I’m not planning to get a rev directly at launch, UNLESS there’s an online SSB. Now if Aries is right, I’ll get it at launch.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:17 pm
sort of off topic, but Aries, is it true that in order to get into the gaming industry you basically have to know someone on the inside?
April 27th, 2005 at 1:17 pm
Aries if you are lying I will hunt you down and rip your heart out!!!!
If you’re right I’ll by you a Coke.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:19 pm
It’s time to acknowledge. I am sorry, all that I said is false.
Very sorry,it was fun for me.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:20 pm
lol
April 27th, 2005 at 1:22 pm
Maybe the key is in Aries’s chosen name.
Aries, in FFVII, was someone who inspired people, and brought hope and peace. She made everyone fall in love with her.
And then she was killed. She failed. Brutally.
So what is it Aries…. are you just trying to sell us flowers?
Or when all is said and done… are we going to kill you?
Haha
April 27th, 2005 at 1:22 pm
Wow, that was really believable, fake Aries.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:23 pm
Paladin: I perfectly understand what you are trying to do, and I don’t take offense to it. Like I said, I do not have that information (Concerning 1080i). Nintendo is playing around with many different things, and we still don’t know everything. I have told you all many of the things I know, and they will be backed up at E3.
I can undertand that many people do not want to be let down. Before I began working in the industry, I was just a gamer like you. I used to sit around and read stuff as well. although all of the systems are cool, Nintendo has always hada special place in my heart. The Legend of Zelda is my favorite series. If someone had come out and said Nintendo was going to reveal a realistic Zelda at E3 2004 and they didn’t, I would be very upset. So trust me on this. The information will start circulating in 19 days.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:24 pm
I’d like that Coke, man. I’m bookmarking you on that.
Happy now?
April 27th, 2005 at 1:24 pm
Why is Aries saying May 19th? Isn’t the Nintendo conference on the 17th..?
April 27th, 2005 at 1:24 pm
Hello everyone. It’s been a lovely day hasn’t it. The truth is i am playing the part of Aries. You may have guessed that i have spoke out of his mouth a few times but what you do not know is that i am all of you… The free will that i created you to believe in is working splendedly. But truthfully i am in control of this whole “Chat”. I am merely having a conversation wih myself. Please continue i am verrrry much ammused…Heh..heh……..hehhhhhhhhhhhhhh
April 27th, 2005 at 1:26 pm
I am SO going to do this marketing for MY website. I mean, it works great. 600 replies? Wow.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:26 pm
He’s saying 19 days. Not May 19th.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:27 pm
@Imposter wow…that was pretty sad
April 27th, 2005 at 1:27 pm
Sad but true
April 27th, 2005 at 1:28 pm
19 days from now is May 16th
April 27th, 2005 at 1:28 pm
“Why is Aries saying May 19th? Isn’t the Nintendo conference on the 17th..?”
I believe it goes with his statement that nothing will be shown at the actual nintendo conference but at the last moment (on 19) explain/show vids of revolution as a suprise.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:29 pm
Man, the media surrounding this is wicked.
Like BanY… he’s posting all this crap on GameSpot. Haha, its everywere. There’s even an I love Aries thread. How cool is that.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:29 pm
“Why is Aries saying May 19th? Isn’t the Nintendo conference on the 17th..?”
Supposedly it’s going to be a bait-and-switch thing, reveal some stuff on Zelda, the DS online, mention a bit about the revolution, let everyone down, and then BAM! on the 19th let everything go, and blow everyone away.
Best case scenario, anyway
April 27th, 2005 at 1:29 pm
Ya brooke is probably having 100x more traffic than ever because of this whole revolution fiasco
April 27th, 2005 at 1:29 pm
errr i may be wrong i guess lol
April 27th, 2005 at 1:30 pm
my job is done here
April 27th, 2005 at 1:31 pm
Moz La Punk.. like I said, it has begun.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:32 pm
What about my comment earlier. And I quote
Based on what you know about the 3 systems, which do you think will win? And it seems from what I’ve read that the Revolution’s Online service will be ALOT like the Phantom, am I wrong?
April 27th, 2005 at 1:34 pm
these guys are all bull@hitting
April 27th, 2005 at 1:34 pm
I’m starting to believe this more and more. Now I’ve also heard from a guy who has sources that he recognises a lot of what Aries says.
Man
April 27th, 2005 at 1:35 pm
As i said before the revolution will draw the era nearer if successful.
one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes.
This is the game interface. The N5 won’t deliver it, but it will come with time, that I can guarantee. I’m confident that Aries knows and does what as he says but if not he’s a damn good guesser.
This is good for the game industry but perhaps not for society. It will soon spread to all technologies and soon they will control us rather than we control them as long as we permit. Call me crazy, but the existence and obsession of virtual reality interfaces we hear from sci-fi is possible and extremely likely. Such an interface is even now available in different forms with integrations of existing technologies and those being developed in ways never imagined, such as wave map rendering. People will want it, after all what life or entertainment could be better than complete and perfect control with the perfect perspective.
I’ve been developing a project for a few years now and still with many years to go. I considered starting a studio for it but the industry has grown too complicated for a small development team to carry out such a task. Eventually people will seek lies to follow their dreams and avoid responsibilities. Man always wants to experience something and can only understand what they experience.
Well if that’s how it’s going to be, then why not give them something to experience?
April 27th, 2005 at 1:36 pm
Based on what you know about the 3 systems, which do you think will win?
Well he already said he felt PS3 will win on name recognition alone, but NRev should do much better than how Cube performed this gen. He made it sound like Xbox360 will be the big loser this time around if Nintendo does things right.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:36 pm
I really hope nintendo and sony don’t release the consoles way too late, i think if i heard that nintendo wasnt relesing revo till the end of 2006
:( 
i might have to just go ahead and buy an xbx360!
April 27th, 2005 at 1:37 pm
Haha man on some forums they’re also saying this:
“Ha! That bio-thing is fake! Tetris64 used it!”
Laughing out loud! That’s already proven to be fake here. Those guys should pay attention.

Interesting. It is true about Sony though, I mean look at the facts
PS2 Sales - 81,000,000
Gamecube - 19,000,000
X-Box - 18,000,000
Those are rough numbers but it shows why PS3 will win the next round.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:41 pm
Please come back Aries. *hopes*
Maybe a logical question to bring him back other than crappy one sentence posts.
Aries, how do you forsee the next generation in terms of sales? Do you think a lot of people will jump ship to the Xbox 360? And will lots of people realize that Nintendo is NOT passe anymore and will start to flock back to Nintendo? What kind of marketing can we expect? And If Nintendo does show all these things at E3 (possibly even let us play it), do you think the other companies will steal their ideas like Nintendo says will always happen?
April 27th, 2005 at 1:42 pm
Aries hasnt shown his face in a while…. has the imposter killed him?
April 27th, 2005 at 1:43 pm
Aries said that they will not show the controller so it will defininatly not be playble.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:45 pm
This thread has ran its course
April 27th, 2005 at 1:47 pm
Please, the guy is away for 10 minutes. Let him chill. What are you people going to do when he goes to sleep? Cry all night?
Anyway I AM going to sleep. Later.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:49 pm
The next generation battle is going to be very intense. All three companies are pulling out all the stops in order to come out on top. I think the PS3 is going to win the battle though. It is always hard to bet against them. From what I’ve heard, the PS3 is alot closer to completion than many think. I have also heard that it is rather hard to develop for in many ways. Although Sony isn’t forcing developers to implement certain components into their games (like Microsoft is), the system development process has a long learning curve. In the end, I don’t think this is going to stop larger publishers like EA and Square Enix from making games for them. Obviously, I don’t have too many concrete details on the system. I do know that it is a very powerful system; it will be more powerful than the other two.
Nintendo is really doing something special with the Revolution. This is a system that will appeal to all gamers, and developers will find it pretty easy to work on. I think it is going to be very successful, especially in Japan. The Gamecube has been a failure over seas. The Revolution should do much better, mainly due to the fact that it will correct many of the mistakes made this generation. There will not be a sub par Luigi game at launch. The system isn’t going to resemble a purple lunch box either. But in my mind 3rd party suport was the biggest reason the Gamecube failed. I don’t see any reason why developers would shun the Revolution. If it is able to sell, it will be supported. Like I said earlier, it will have the greatest launch titles ever seen on a console.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:52 pm
don’t pay attention to this man,
April 27th, 2005 at 1:54 pm
you seem to be interested in only pleasing your readers. It would be apreciated if you could write a quick summary of all the information you have disclosed. And maybe include a few new bits of information. Thanks
April 27th, 2005 at 1:54 pm
Do you have any idea what the name for Revolution will be? Or if the name will even be revealed at E3?
Thanks.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:55 pm
Reggie? hmmm sounds familiar some how. your not the reggie are you?
April 27th, 2005 at 1:56 pm
**x-files music plays**
“I want to believe!” :-O
alright this blog has run its’ course. Thanks Aries for the info. If you’ve been yanking my crank, oh well…u made this workday go faster for me. It’s been fun regardless.
Later all.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:56 pm
you even have a link to nintendo.com hmmm convincing
April 27th, 2005 at 1:58 pm
=)
April 27th, 2005 at 1:58 pm
Aries, you should answer my 1080i question from above.
April 27th, 2005 at 1:59 pm
well it seems you have lost your poker face
April 27th, 2005 at 2:00 pm
just say yay or nay
April 27th, 2005 at 2:02 pm
well… i feel alone
April 27th, 2005 at 2:02 pm
so… cold…
April 27th, 2005 at 2:03 pm
wow, it suddenly got really quiet in here
April 27th, 2005 at 2:05 pm
I hope this is all true, but even if it isn’t I love this part about E3.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:05 pm
yah
you said it
April 27th, 2005 at 2:05 pm
its too quiet let me try someting
April 27th, 2005 at 2:06 pm
it will float
April 27th, 2005 at 2:06 pm
maybe reggie scare him off, or had him (gulp) dissapear =O
April 27th, 2005 at 2:07 pm
I miss you T.T .
Traveler Tales ??? Factor 5 ???
April 27th, 2005 at 2:07 pm
Thanks for taking the time to post what you know! I know many of us appreciate it and it’s making us really excited for E3.
I have some quick random questions for you…
Earthbound on Revolution?
Will the Revolution charge controllers wirelessly when in proximity of the console?
Will the Revolution feature wireless video?
April 27th, 2005 at 2:08 pm
duh, we already know that. We also know it will create a direct link to the abyss and transport gamers there. Where have you been?
April 27th, 2005 at 2:08 pm
So guys was it really him?
April 27th, 2005 at 2:09 pm
reggie i mean
April 27th, 2005 at 2:09 pm
Come back Aries, we need more, don’t you understand what you started!!!!!
April 27th, 2005 at 2:10 pm
yeah man
April 27th, 2005 at 2:11 pm
@MomeGifk_Ov no, it wasn’t the real Reggie. He’s replied a few times before. Just some random troll it seems.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:11 pm
Isn’t it strange that after the regie post he has’t post, I don’t suppose it was the real reggie, or was it ; )
April 27th, 2005 at 2:11 pm
It wasn’t reggie because of, and I quote
don’t pay attention to this man,
he put a “,” after man.
Reggie wouldn’t do that. And if it was Reggie, than it doesn’t mean anything, Aries could still be 100% correct.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:15 pm
i know it wasnt him… just creating conversation… and hopes
April 27th, 2005 at 2:16 pm
lol.. I can’t believe you guys.
As if Aries being an ex-NOA employee wasn’t sketchy enough, you’re actually debating if Reggie posted here and scared him off.
Please listen to what you’re saying… soo ridiculous, hahaha.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:16 pm
To Alex, Earthbound won’t come to Revolution, at least not anytime soon. They are still working on Mother 3 for GBA.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:17 pm
oh, heh. Sorry. I’m actually kinda glad this thing has died down. Now I can get to my essay for bio (due tomorrow). Fecking college, I swear!
April 27th, 2005 at 2:18 pm
Aries, I have a logical question.
Nintendo has said that there was more than one proposal for the technology/interface to be used for their next-gen console. Has a definite model been chosen? If so, would you know anything of the others or be able to share any details about them?
April 27th, 2005 at 2:19 pm
hey what about Aries being Matt Cassamina. It was said before. was it a joke or an accusation?
April 27th, 2005 at 2:20 pm
Dude the worlds not that small. Stop with your conspiracies
April 27th, 2005 at 2:21 pm
What, you think some dork posting as reggie scared him off? LOL. Your getting worked up cause he hasn’t posted in like, 20 minutes. Im sure he will be back… Please?
April 27th, 2005 at 2:22 pm
“To Alex, Earthbound won’t come to Revolution, at least not anytime soon. They are still working on Mother 3 for GBA.”
Yeah, I’m aware of that… I meant Earthbound franchise in the future coming out on Revolution. It’s taking an ungodly amount of time for Mother 3 to come out in Japan or even release ANY details.. they are being so tight-lipped on it.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:23 pm
I am no dork sir, come back Aries why don’t you, bwaaaahahahahahahahaha
April 27th, 2005 at 2:24 pm
Look, all that has been said here is a lie. Please wait until E3. There will be confirmation soon.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:24 pm
so it was a fake, good.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:25 pm
hey whats up my man Reggie?
April 27th, 2005 at 2:26 pm
miyamoto, we know you are fake because your suppose to LOL after every sentence, hahahahaa
April 27th, 2005 at 2:26 pm
*sigh* not fooling anyone
April 27th, 2005 at 2:27 pm
i don’t think Miyamoto’s english is that good.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:27 pm
That is not funny!
LOL
April 27th, 2005 at 2:27 pm
“Yeah, I’m aware of that… I meant Earthbound franchise in the future coming out on Revolution. It’s taking an ungodly amount of time for Mother 3 to come out in Japan or even release ANY details.. they are being so tight-lipped on it.”
Just making sure you know, because many people seem not to. And yeah, they are being awfully quiet about the game, but I think it’s because they don’t want us to be disappointed (I mean we had tons of screenshots and a movie clip of the original Mother 3 and then it got canceled, and we were left wondering “what if?”)
April 27th, 2005 at 2:29 pm
is all good, preparing my speech for E3, and you?
How is the weather in Japan?
April 27th, 2005 at 2:29 pm
i have a translator
LOL
April 27th, 2005 at 2:30 pm
then the translator’s english isn’t that good
April 27th, 2005 at 2:30 pm
It OK. But i on a plane to America right now.
LOL
April 27th, 2005 at 2:31 pm

April 27th, 2005 at 2:32 pm
did you get the package I sent you, wink wink
April 27th, 2005 at 2:33 pm
I am using its function to translate Japanese into English. I am using the microphone as we talk
April 27th, 2005 at 2:33 pm
Yes Yes… it pleases my wife well
April 27th, 2005 at 2:34 pm
lol, Aries don’t let this fools stop you from posting again ok
April 27th, 2005 at 2:35 pm
Who are you calling a fool
April 27th, 2005 at 2:35 pm
Halo BOY!!!
April 27th, 2005 at 2:35 pm
you forgot the LOL on your last 3 posts, smart one
April 27th, 2005 at 2:36 pm
Hello Nintendo Fans, excuse me english, Im here to express my content for your support, I am retiring from nintendo videogame company. have confident that the company is in good hands. Satoru Iwata will lead the company to great successes. I am thankfull for all the time I directed Nintendo decisions, but it is time to say good bye to the company.
thank you sincerely: Hiroshi Yamauchi
April 27th, 2005 at 2:37 pm
that is because i am not laughing…
lol
April 27th, 2005 at 2:38 pm
no wonder Aries left….look at what this has reduced to
April 27th, 2005 at 2:39 pm
hiroshi, my man how are you, say hello to the misses
April 27th, 2005 at 2:39 pm
Aries, from the bottom of my heat i ask you to come back to the blog that has spawned you.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:40 pm
so I guess no more news
April 27th, 2005 at 2:41 pm
i guess not
April 27th, 2005 at 2:42 pm
yeah, aries, were just playing until you come back, but were still intereted.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:42 pm
it was fun though
but hey maybe hes just stuck on the crapper with no role
April 27th, 2005 at 2:43 pm
id give him a role
its the least i can do…
April 27th, 2005 at 2:44 pm
“it was fun though
but hey maybe hes just stuck on the crapper with no role”
LOL
April 27th, 2005 at 2:44 pm
Maybe if i ask my logical question again he will come back.
Nintendo has said that there was more than one proposal for the technology/interface to be used for their next-gen console. Has a definite model been chosen? If so, would you know anything of the others or be able to share any details about them?
April 27th, 2005 at 2:44 pm
Some thoughts….
Well, I think Aries has caused quite a stir. First off, anyone who writes off someone this consistent and plausible is a fool, but so is the person who automatically believes him. I suggest to everyone to be cautiously optimistic, and hope that E3 verifies his claims, because they are promising. Also, I expect this to headline Gamespot’s next edition of Rumour Control. They generally keep an eye on the forums, and this is absolutely explosive stuff.
I do have a question, though. You’ve given us a lot of information, true or false, that goes way above and beyond anything we know yet. But the Revolution is still presumably a 2006 console. Can we honestly expect all this stuff to happen in nineteen days?
April 27th, 2005 at 2:45 pm
lol
April 27th, 2005 at 2:46 pm
you guys are neither clever or funny.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:47 pm
i think the correct English is nor funny
April 27th, 2005 at 2:47 pm
not or…nor
April 27th, 2005 at 2:48 pm
ok, back on topic
Aries, is the Silicon Knights game too human? just give us a hint please
April 27th, 2005 at 2:49 pm
well… i g2E(got to eat)
Hopefully when i come back… So will He…Sob…
April 27th, 2005 at 2:49 pm
Nintendo has no competition, we are the only profitable company, we do right decisions. Sony and microsfogt are no game company.
Nintendo will go to the movies industry and we will be succesfull. Our games are teh best
April 27th, 2005 at 2:53 pm
Aries thanks for all the information and fun you can leave the rest up to Nintendo at E3.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:56 pm
Boy, you people are crazy and many are very rude. Truth or not, Aries’s information seems to be accurate. The Net is an interesting place concerning truth. Everybody’s first reaction is that its teh fake!! or the person is lying. People should give other people the benefit of the doubt.
April 27th, 2005 at 2:57 pm
Aries is not to be trusted. Teh revolution is a secret no person has knowledge of its properties. I design it myself with the help of Sir Miyamoto and Iwata, final properties are not revealed yet. clever people I see here, close to the truth you are. But at E3 event my Nintendo Army will tell the truth to all fans. And very happy fans will be.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:00 pm
After reading what Matt had to say, I was very worried about Nintendo. However, you have singlehandedly renewed my faith in the Revolution. I still don’t know if you’re the real deal or not (again, nothing personal), but it seems some serious hype has been created from your efforts, which is exactly what Nintendo needs. 19 days or not, E3 is too far away. Thank you for the info, Aries, it’s much appreciated.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:01 pm
too bad hiroshi doesnt have a position anymore at nintendo.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:04 pm
I have retired you are right, but teh revolution is my last effort for the company. Our best invention yet, Im sure it will make people happy.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:06 pm
I don’t know anything about Earthbound. Many people are hoping for another game in this series. The same can be said of Kid Icarus. There is a lot of mystery surrounded both series. But, I have no information that would make me think that sequels are in development.
Anyone: When I first joined the studio I currently work at, we had just begun developing for the Nintendo Revolution. We recieved development kits early, but it took Nintendo a while to get us the controller details. That’s why I doubt it will be shown at E3. They have been trying to keep it under wraps for a long time now. It did not have different capabilities previous to the ones it has now. Like I said, it has gyroscopic and pressure sensitve controls. It never had touch screen controls; Game Informer wrote a very misleading artile on this aspect of the system. I will once again verify that the controller will be wireless. Microsoft stole this idea from Nintendo.
Like I said earlier, Nintendo is watching Sony very closely. They do not think that the Xbox 360 is going to be a competitor next generation. As many of you have probally heard, Microsoft is going to launch the Xbox 360 in November. Nintendo has plans on releasing the new Zelda game on whatever date Microsoft chooses. I have also heard rumors that Sony is planning on doing something similar. Apparantly, they are going to release Final Fantasy 12 in Japan to combat the Xbox 360 launch. I actually think there is some truth behind this rumor, but I could be wrong. I think Nintendo is making a mistake by not taking the Xbox 360 seriously.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:06 pm
I totally agree with Sean, truth or not, I am super hyped for E3, and for that I thank you Aries
April 27th, 2005 at 3:08 pm
yay
April 27th, 2005 at 3:08 pm
Only one question. Why (after hundreds of posts) haven’t the site admin said a single word about this?
I find that really extrange, don’t I?
April 27th, 2005 at 3:09 pm
I am alive!!
April 27th, 2005 at 3:11 pm
Maybe they don’t take it seriously because it seems to attract the “I’m a gamer because I play halo” crowd which there is unfortunately a large amount of. Sure Halo 1 was a great game, but it’s way overrated. On the note of XBox360, how strong would you say it’s launch title assembly will be?
April 27th, 2005 at 3:16 pm
Aries,what are the specs of “holywood” and “brodway”?
HE HE answers has this question to see if you can.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:19 pm
Ive followed this for a while, and I must say you make me very excited for the future of Nintendo(which for the past few painfully silent weeks has seemed very bleak). I do have a question for you Aries. Do you have any idea what Factor 5 is up to? And can we expet LucasArts support for the Revolution(you many have mentioned LucasArts before, please forgive my bad memory).
April 27th, 2005 at 3:19 pm
wahoo!!!!
My wishes came true he is back… and so am i
April 27th, 2005 at 3:22 pm
But doesn’t he seem to be only restating what he has said earlier or is it just me…
cmon man give us some nice cold hard facts!
April 27th, 2005 at 3:26 pm
Factor 5 work to the 360.
It’s a roque scadron online.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:28 pm
maybe he has run out of information.
(I am saying this to inspire him to write me wrong)
((I am saying this so he does not get mad and go away))
(((I am saying this to clarify)))
((((Who the hell knows why im saying this))))
April 27th, 2005 at 3:28 pm
just about the double-sided mini disc idea…it sounds good, but 5.4 GB?? hd-dvd is 20GB standard, and blu-ray is 50GB+
mayb if they were double-sided blu-ray mini discs, after all Panasonic developed the GCs discs and mem cards, and Panasonic is part of the blu-ray team
and yes, the Revolution will have a hard-drive, how else will it store these massive updates to the voice recognition library et al? (i don’t think an EEPROM chip is gonna have enough storage)
April 27th, 2005 at 3:30 pm
I wish the fake Aries would stop!
April 27th, 2005 at 3:32 pm
dude all the aries (real and fake) have stopped for at least 20 minutes
April 27th, 2005 at 3:33 pm
Actually there was one 6 minutes ago…
April 27th, 2005 at 3:35 pm
wow i didnt even read the name
it was so dumb i coulnt think is was him…
April 27th, 2005 at 3:35 pm
I havn’t heard anything about Factor 5, and I doubt LucusArts has any plans to work on Nintendo consoles. I will reveal more information on Nintendo’s 1st party games later.
Garfy: You are correct. I haven’t really said too much, mainly because I have revealed alot already. I have more interesting stuff to share with you all, but not now. E3 is just around the corner.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:37 pm
define “later” for us please
in my opinion there’s no time like the present!
April 27th, 2005 at 3:39 pm
face it dude your are this blog.
without you… you have to listen to me babble
April 27th, 2005 at 3:39 pm
guys…. the janitor will be back…..ign….this Friday!!! look out for me.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:39 pm
Cruel. Ah well. Even if you are incorrect about some of your claims, youve sparked my interest in the Revolution again. I just hope you arent lieing, or else Id probaly lock myself in a dark room and cry.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:41 pm
your say kojima is working with Nintendo on a game.
could there be any hope for a Metal Gear on the Revolution.
I know its not a MG game your refering to but in the future…?
April 27th, 2005 at 3:42 pm
He didn’t answer to my question about specs.
Strange..for a developer who work on the revo..
April 27th, 2005 at 3:44 pm
Aries…
Do you have any insight as to how Nintendo plans to promote the new system? I know Reggie’s attitudes and influence are reflected in recent strategies by Nintendo, but I was wondering if you knew of any PR stunts or campains that Nintendo plans on undergoing. Or at the very least, an angle Nintendo plans on taking for the next round.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:44 pm
They dont matter. And why would anyone care? Weve been given countless numbers of specs for PS3 and Xbox 360, and all they do is get changed. And downgraded. We wont know the final specs until the day they come out.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:44 pm
iwata said himself that specs aren’t important
April 27th, 2005 at 3:46 pm
“specs aren’t that important” when it comes to the revolution apparently…iwata and reggie keep saying this. be sure that it will not only overpower the xbox 360 but probably come close to, if not exceed, the PS3
April 27th, 2005 at 3:47 pm
did anyone pay attention to the janitor?…
what was he talking about
April 27th, 2005 at 3:48 pm
Aeris, why don’t you make a blog entry on a site and post the link here so we can get one source of info, and then there isn’t any imposters? Or make a post on a popular gaming forum (Gaming Age). This is getting to difficult to read.
April 27th, 2005 at 3:49 pm
It was a test question.
You think this guy say the truth?
April 27th, 2005 at 3:51 pm
IS THIS THE REVOLUTIONARY FREAKING FEATURE ?????
Revolution on a Multiplayer session: (sorry for my gorillistic english)
Players sitted around a TV. Every player is positioned on a diferent place (obiously). The system allows every player to have a good perspective of the game but depending on his/her position. Every view is like looking through a mirror with the difference you could look “into the games world” as it was a window to other dimension. Every view of the game depends on the position of the gamer but also on the position and orientation the gamer gives to the controller.
Questions. This is what I think all the revolutionary stuff is like a conclusion of what I understood reading the patent text.
This would need the Revolution to do some icky tricky treatment of the image so a regular TV screen could project the diferent images for every gamer.
My question is, how the hell is Nintendo going to achieve it without using any external graphics projection device ??? Is a regular TV screen capable to do those multiple particular projections ???
Really no goggles related to the idea ???
Saludos desde Chile !!!!
April 27th, 2005 at 3:57 pm
The specs are not important. It is very powerful.
How will Nintendo promote the system? Watch “The Game” and pay attention to the mainstream sites out there. Especially IGN. Many people think that they are biased, and I tend to agree somewhat. But pay attention to what they are saying.
Reggie is very influencial at Nintendo. He has made some poor decisions (Metroid Prime 2’s ad campaign) but overall he has been very healthy for Nintendo’s imagine. I don’t know how they will start advertising it after E3 though. We’ll see together.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:02 pm
what if?
it does use glasses, but they are the display no tv.
you still have a normal controller but the GYROSCOPIC “control” is in the glasses.
Now you have 3D scene that moves based on head movement. the scene continues to move past your looking point so you instinctively return your head back to center.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:03 pm
If you are truly working on rev, you must know some specs
April 27th, 2005 at 4:06 pm
if your really worked up about specs tho, this is probably what you can expect:
CPU
- custom IBM PowerPC G4/G5
GPU
- custom ATI chipset, perhaps based on architecture of X800
Memory
- 256-512MB RAM
- 128MB Video RAM
Inbuilt harddrive minimum 15GB
Inbuilt 802.11g WiFi (note that “g” version is backwards compatable with “b” version)
4xWireless controllers
external memory card slots
blu-ray double-sided mini discs (Panasonic and Nintendo still have a partnership, and Panasonic is on the blu-ray team. Moz was apparently pretty close with the double-sided mini discs, so i’m gonna assume its true)
there will also be the headset, may or may not connect to console via wireless controller “port”
just speculation, but its pretty much what we can expect
April 27th, 2005 at 4:08 pm
I wish you guys would just let Aries speak, stop copying his name and making fake posts. i feel like im in an xbox forum or something. Can we not act mature? Thankyou Aries for providing us with all of this information, Nintendo has a problem with being too tight lipped for their own good.
I was wondering, do you think Revolution will end the whole kiddie issue Nintendo has been stuck with the past decade? or at least balance it out.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:09 pm
I do know the specs, at least what Nintendo has givenus so far. Obviously they will change as time goes by. I’ve seen them on the internet before though. There are some very interesting things out there. Much of it is pure speculation and hype, but I have seen very credible information as well.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:10 pm
I wanted to hear it from Aries
April 27th, 2005 at 4:10 pm
Aries, why didn’t you answer my question?
Here it is again.
“Do you have any idea what the name for Revolution will be? Or if the name will even be revealed at E3?
Thanks.”
April 27th, 2005 at 4:11 pm
xbox 360 disc are 8gigs i believe and the ps3 won’t probably use blue-ray since sony and toshiba are combinin their media disc
April 27th, 2005 at 4:13 pm
What Im wondering is why couldnt Aries say the specs after telling us all the otehr info…hmm
April 27th, 2005 at 4:18 pm
tell me Aries-have you seen this system that you speak of?
April 27th, 2005 at 4:19 pm
Aries_God didn’t answer my question
Im gonna kill myself !!!!!!!
April 27th, 2005 at 4:20 pm
The “kiddie” image has really hurt Nintendo this generation. The lack of online play played a major part in this. Games like Burnout 3 could have been on the Gamecube, but the lack of online functionality caused the developer to shun the system. With the Revolution, I’ve seen some things that convince me that it will address this issue. Games like Wave Race and Retro’s FPS appeal to older gamers. Some of the other games I mentioned also appeal to older gamers. I think gamers will notice this.
With the Gamecube, the new Zelda is going to appeal to older gamers. Look at some of the screens that came out today.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:22 pm
Areis, waht are the specs. Give something, it would finally seal the deal and establish you know something about developing and something concrete about the system that cant just be guesswork
April 27th, 2005 at 4:23 pm
Aries…aren’t you tired of being on this board yet?
April 27th, 2005 at 4:23 pm
well.. looking like a purple lunch box didnt really help the gamecube appear as a serious gaming console either.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:25 pm
give it a rest about the specs. To quote many important people,”The specs are not important.”
April 27th, 2005 at 4:27 pm
to sebbo - i think you could be wrong about the wireless spec. i think it might be ‘802.11n’ not ‘802.11g’. n is the new version and it boasts 800 percent increase in coverage and 600 percent speed hike. it is combatible with b and g. apparently belkin are first to market with a n router http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=184316
note the above is pre-n as its the first or something like. when mainstream should just be n.
to jesus - consider tech specs may be something nintendo specifically told 3rd party developers they could not mention. or alternately if he is actually a nintendo employee who is under orders to start hype via the web as some people have mentioned that possibility then specs would not be somthing he would give as it would go against nintendos ’specs not important ethos’.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:28 pm
Tell us about the revolutionary feature (read my lasts posts please).
April 27th, 2005 at 4:28 pm
I´ve made up a forum because it´s more comfortable to use and I also think that this blog won´t last forever. It´s in german but I´m sure you all will make your way through the registration.
It´s easy! So, if you want to come over, here is the URL:
http://www.foren.de/system/user_genecyst.html
April 27th, 2005 at 4:30 pm
Aries, do you sleep?
April 27th, 2005 at 4:32 pm
I think the 3D theory thing is out if for only a couple of year more. And I also find it odd that the admin has nothing to say. (Maybe this was the way to leak the Revolution) I think that Brooke is probably one of the smartest man on the planet though. I think he did what no Intenet Journal top website could Do; turn Nintendo in to a positive Discussion instead of a negative one. Aries. I give you high props and regard for putting you career on the line to tell us a little about what you know, and what you don’t. If this was Nintendo’s way of marketing, talking directly to the end user, they would be in a better posistion now than they were in the past. I hope some of the higher ups at Nintendo are paying attention to this blog. We don’t want to know everything, but something is always better than nothing.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:33 pm
O ha and by the way I hope the call the Revolution, Nintendo Aries.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:34 pm
The name hasn’t been determined yet. With the DS, Nintendo claimed they were going to give it a real name. Of course, in the end they chose to call it just the DS. I think this is going to happen with the Revolution as well.
I’m not posting anything else today. See you all tommorow. I would once again say: wait until E3 to make up your minds. It’s only 19 days away. Pay attention to the gaming news as well. Some interesting things happended today that I didn’t expect.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:34 pm
hmm, haven’t heard much about 802.11n
Broadcom is developing Revolutions WiFi: http://cube.ign.com/articles/605/605846p1.html?fromint=1
if their development on the ‘n’ version is coming along well, i think we’ll see it in the final product (’n’ is quite fitting too, don’t u think? ‘n’ for nintendo, hmm? ok, that was bad)
April 27th, 2005 at 4:36 pm
he better not
April 27th, 2005 at 4:36 pm
Xbox is teh pwn it will own that rev baaad, and PS3 will grab a club and beet up the Rev with tha Xbox 2 360 together, and ninendo will die 4ever
April 27th, 2005 at 4:40 pm
your name fits you well
April 27th, 2005 at 4:41 pm
if by blind you mean ignorant
April 27th, 2005 at 4:42 pm
GIVE ME SPECS, GIVE ME SPECS, GIVE ME SPECS!
SPECS DO NOT MATTER ANYMORE! Besides its obvious that Aries won’t give the specs its a secret.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:43 pm
I are FiRed! [face_Trump]
April 27th, 2005 at 4:43 pm
I was just kidding, you know. I’m really a Nintendo fanboy. LOL
April 27th, 2005 at 4:46 pm
another thing i want to know is why are people so bothered about knowing the name? personally i thought xbox, gamecube and playstation werent all that great but ive owned all three at one time. the name in no way affected my purchasing of it. i know the specs arent all that important but knowing the name way before release is insignificant. its not something to be eagerly anticipating, in fact its gotta be less exciting than what colour the machine will be. when nintendo release the name itll be like ‘ok no big deal, now i know what its called’.
April 27th, 2005 at 4:52 pm

“Revolution Revealed? In the middle of last week, “the secret of nintendo’s next console” was published on Broken Saint’s site”…” a slightly better translation
April 27th, 2005 at 4:59 pm
Aries, is your game company making games for the DS?
April 27th, 2005 at 5:00 pm
Whatever the case, this information has me hyped…if its not real well atleast it has me imagining how insane such information would be if it was real.
April 27th, 2005 at 5:06 pm
Aries, so has silicon knights left nintendo for good, or are they still going to make games for the Revoultion.
April 27th, 2005 at 5:11 pm
This Blog is wierd, somebody is messing with my posts and shit.

Hes not coming back tonight…so no point in asking again.
April 27th, 2005 at 5:29 pm
F*rck
April 27th, 2005 at 5:37 pm
WOW…
April 27th, 2005 at 5:42 pm
Hopefully he reveals more about what the DS has in store. While I am REALLY excited about the Revolution now, I dont want everybody to forget about the DS.
April 27th, 2005 at 5:45 pm
This is the first ARG I did join, truly fun
April 27th, 2005 at 5:56 pm
I can’t tell who’s more pathetic… people trying to be imposters or Aries… people trying to be Miyamoto, Reginald Fills-Aime, or Hiroshi Yamauchi… or the people believing everything said on here.
I seriously believe Aries… and not because he’s some insider with a huge ammount of knowledge… but what he says makes sense and seems to fit with some of the few scant tidbits I’ve gotten from my meetings with publishers recently.
See, I work for a small indie games developer, and we’ve recently started shopping some projects to different publishers… including some big names, and some of the stuff I’ve seen on this blog discussion fit with little bits a pieces I’ve heard from prospective publishers. You see, my team is a PC team, but since we’re doing an fantasy adventure game (and since a few of us in upper management are Nintendo fans) we have posed the idea of getting the game ported to a Nintendo system.
If you guys want credentials… sorry. This close to E3 you have to expect NDAs to be in full force and I don’t want any trouble… it’s hard enough for an indie developer to make it in this industry without making waves.
I have no idea what Nintendo is planning for this unveiling… and sadly I won’t be able to see it in person as we’re kinda gearing up to begin production on a new title now that we’re getting some support for one of our projects from a publisher. But if you guys are really interested in what Nintendo is going to be doing at E3… I’d say Aires is on the money (at least, the real Aires is).
April 27th, 2005 at 5:57 pm
The DS has potential but nothing else at the moment except Mario 64 (Kick ass game!!)
Truly Hunters and Mario Kart will ROCK but nintendo needs to pull out whats been in their sleeves for the DS and give the public what it wants, more GOOD/NON-Puzzle/ACTUALLY FUN GAMES!!!
April 27th, 2005 at 6:02 pm
Where is Brooke!
April 27th, 2005 at 6:10 pm
I think one element we should seriouly take into consideration is the size of the poster(s) genatali comparatively to those who make comments and are considered to be legitimate resources. While many would argue this should not be a factor in considering one’s reliability I myself beg to differ and believe that extensive measuring should be required prior to any post from this point forward
April 27th, 2005 at 6:25 pm
I do believe in Aries, its just a few things bother me, like him not revealing specs, or somtimes providing info that seems odd
April 27th, 2005 at 6:37 pm
Well, reaveling specs of a system not out yet isn’t smart. People get hung up on those specs and often times specs can keep changing until final production begins. However, based on what I have heard, the system will be extremely powerful. I seem to remember Matt from IGN saying that he heard it was on par with top line PC systems. Well, my team has worked on some top line PC systems and from what we’ve gathered both Rev and Xbox 360 are far superior to what we’ve worked on. (btw, I have great respect for MS… but that console name sucks something fierce).
I can confirm Retro is working on something not Metroid based… and I can confirm NST has some stuff in the works as well for Rev (as I know a couple guys at NST pretty well since I met them at E3 2004) Knowing NSTs past and the games my friends have worked on… it’s not very far fetched to think they are working on a new Wave Race… but I’m not sure on that. Just saying it makes sense (especially since one of my friends is doing the same work on that title, in the same style as well).
As for other Ninty games… I can’t confirm a SSB game for Rev… all I know about Rev I’ve heard either from third parties gearing up for the system (and quite a few are really excited), or from Retro and NST where I have friends working on projects.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:40 pm
If he were here right now, I would ask him
A) How the hell could you have heat inducing handles and still hold any sort of real battery life on a wireless controller? If a rumble feature was taken out of the Wavebird, how could they put a cold and warm feature on this controller?
B) What did you do as an ex- NOA employee?
April 27th, 2005 at 6:43 pm
holy shit, i got homework to do!!! Aries you better not be lieing because i have an exam tommorow and you speculations have kept me glued to this sight. May 19 come and i find out you were a lie the whole time i’m going to very angry. However I hope everything well almost everything you say is true. Let the revolution begin
April 27th, 2005 at 6:43 pm
He’s not going to tell you what he did at NOA. It would give him away. At the most… he could say “I am in the credits for X game” without giving himself awy, and even then you won’t believe him anyway.
April 27th, 2005 at 6:49 pm
Okay.. i was thinking about the “revolution” and i think i got it…
ares told we should watch “The game” and thats’it, the revolution will be a “communication” between the console and you with the voice commands…
do you remember at the movie when m.douglas starts talking with the TV?
and i think i know how nintendo will show this at E3… they will show Reggie talking with Mario on a big screen!!
im correct Aries?
April 27th, 2005 at 6:53 pm
according to Aries, tho, the microphone abilities, while very interesting and revolutionary, arent the biggest feature of the console
April 27th, 2005 at 6:55 pm
hey guys its me george! yay i’m having fun! this the revolutionary feature:
nintendo has already made games that can hear and games that can feel, but now we’re going to make games that can smell! there will be a small intake fan on the controller and all you have to do is make a smell near that and the revolution will sense it and react! it will be great for gameplay! teh innovative!!1 for example, in zelda, you might have to make the smell of a banana to make link swing his sword! wont that be great!!
April 27th, 2005 at 6:55 pm
oh crap i mispeeled my name!!!1
April 27th, 2005 at 6:57 pm
oops i can spell not good! ROFL!
April 27th, 2005 at 7:05 pm
I can also confirm that in a couple weeks, you’ll see hints of a brand new action game for the Rev. I won’t reveal too many of the details, but it’s very DMC-esque.
As far as the Revolutionary feature goes, mull this word over in your heads for a while:
“Transformation”
But I’m off for now, since I was just stabbed by Sephiroth and I’m about to die. Just wait until E3 and all will be confirmed.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:13 pm
good. revolution needs action games! something the gamecube really lacked
April 27th, 2005 at 7:24 pm
Aries are a bunch of arrogant LIARS, believe me. He tells you he works for such and such and that he’s an insider, so that the readers find him credible. He now has open avenue to spew his ideas or LIES rather to DUPE the people. Folks, this is nothing more than an ATTENTION SEEKING WHORE!
I dont think this guy is a blabber mouth and putting his “job on the line”, he is creative at best and good at lying to people.
Have some class, Aries.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:29 pm
This is all very interesting, and I’ve been trying to figure out who Aries works for. Although it’s damn near impossible. I will say it’s pretty hard to take Aries seriously, but he’s just so damn convincing.
Anyways, I have 2 guess as to what company Aries works for. From software or Creative assembly.
… Am I close?
April 27th, 2005 at 7:43 pm
This is madness. Going on 1000 replies and Brooke has not said a thing. That is really getting to me.
April 27th, 2005 at 7:57 pm
thats because brooke is a n00b!!!1 PWN3D!!

April 27th, 2005 at 8:08 pm
“I’ve been following this blog for awhile now, and I must saw I find it quite misleading. Is this a publicity stunt? For the record, I can 100% guarantee that the Nintendo Revolution will NOT use 3D images a la Spy Kids 3D.
I worked for NOA for 5 years, and I am now currently working with a major 3rd party developer who happens to be working on all three next generation consoles. I’m not going to give out the company name, due to obvious reasons.”
First off, this isn’t some publicity stunt. It was information that was gathered over the last couple years. Second off, I make it clear in my article that nothing is fact. It is all information I have gained while being in the industry. If you look at my information, most of it is right on target, while other information might seem kinda stretched. I will go as far as to say that my theory on full 3-D stereoscopic technology WILL happen. I just have way too much evidence to back it up. I would also like to say how amused I am that this has hit almost at 1000 replies.
Second off, you aren’t a developer. Because if you were a developer, your IP for most of your posts wouldn’t be coming from “Fifth Third National Bank.” You are making up these stories try to wet these people’s appetite. Too bad your little stories aren’t up on IGN. First off, you claim to be a third party developer. Not even Rareware or Silicon Knights knew about all of the projects that Nintendo had in development for GameCube. Realize something. There is a reason IGN posted my story.
Let me tell you why IGNCube posted my story. Because there is going to be a followup story on Friday. Sorry to grill up your perfect little fairy tales, “Aeris”. Now go back to working at your bank.

Well, one of these guys is wrong. But here’s something to lend credence to Brooke’s speculation, sorry if it’s been mentioned earlier in the thread.
I googled “3d stereoscopic” + “Nintendo Revolution”, just to see what would come up. Only one result, and it sends you to this page:
http://microvision.blogspot.com/2004_07_01_microvision_archive.html
Scroll down to Wednesday, July 21 2004.
There’s a couple paragraphs about advances in videogame technology, and then this:
While the capabilities of gaming consoles have increased by unimaginable leaps over the last 25 years, the basic paradigm of hooking a computer up to a TV in your living room and sitting on the sofa has remained constant.
Microvision’s technology makes it possible to create 3D, stereoscopic images that either augment a user’s field of view or completely block out the outside world — allowing the visual world of a wearer to be determined by the hardware and software capabilities of a game console.
While game consoles will continue to improve on the existing paradigm (PlayStation 3, Xbox 2, and Nintendo Revolution are due in stores by next Christmas), these companies are keenly aware that they will need to evolve, adapt, or risk obsolescence.
Gamers by the millions are eager for new and novel experiences that highten immersion in the gaming world. The first company to offer 3D virtual reality gaming with a stylish, lightweight eyeglass display will have a massive edge in mindshare — their brand will always be tied to bringing leading-edge, futuristic and differentiated gaming capabilities to their customers — and in the super-competitive high-stakes world of gaming consoles that kind of advantage could be worth big money for years to come.
***
Maybe Brooke’s onto something. The wording on that blog is shockingly similar to Nintendo’s rhetoric- “new and novel experiences”, “evolve, adapt, or risk obsolescence”, “the basic paradigm..has remained constant”, “consoles will continue to improve on the existing paradigm”
April 27th, 2005 at 8:28 pm
“Let me tell you why IGNCube posted my story. Because there is going to be a followup story on Friday. Sorry to grill up your perfect little fairy tales, “Aeris”. Now go back to working at your bank.”
Ehhh…Brooke, his name is “Aries” not “Aeries”
April 27th, 2005 at 8:28 pm
Man I really do not know who to believe. I guess if there is a follow up story on Friday then I will be swayed towards Brooke.

now we have people pretending to be brooke. this is getting out of hand kids. speaking on facts…here’s a fact. brooke is smart enough to spell “whet” correctly. whoever this imposter is has the grammar of a third grader…and that’s just insulting. dude, at least be a good imposter.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:36 pm
Sweet Jesus, this is like Gamespot take over. I’m willing to bet the Gates/harrison impersonater’s are GS members too. Aries has captured an audience.
Conviently cryptic… makes you wonder.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:40 pm
I think Aries statements are too accurate and consistent to be made up. So what if hes talking from a bank’s IP.. maybe hes there. That no way to judge
April 27th, 2005 at 8:42 pm
I can only think of one other 3rd party developer that would know a lot about the Revolution; Factor 5.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:42 pm
Sorry bout the Gates thing, that was me being really stupid in reaction to the new news. I hate Xbox and love the Revolution and am glad with the new specs! SORRY

Sounds good but how much will it cost? It sounds like this company is going for all systems not Just Nintendos system. He could be right, but its not the aspect that make it revolutionary over its compeditors. Well just have to wait till E3.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:47 pm
One thing is for sure……..I’m getting pretty excited for E3.

It may be my fault. I’m from the GS community, and I have been posting some stuff on the boards. It may have brought over some straglers, and haters (the hate for Nintendo is strong in that community). The next kegal of news will stay on the offical Rev board or the GGD board next time.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:49 pm
Wow. If that really was brooke, I must say he didn’t think before he spoke.
Do you think, if all this is the honest truth, that Aries would post this information FROM WHERE HE WORKS? It doesn’t take a genius to know that an admin can see your IP address, and he certainly wouldn’t want the place he works to get leaked.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:51 pm
Aries/Brooke, if you know this much about Nintendo hardware, you’ve obviously been able to see it firsthand, and if that’s true, wouldn’t you have to sign an NDA? It seems to me like you guys are just pumping out too much for it not to be a bit suspicious. For this to come all at once and out of the blue from Nintendo of all companies just seems absurd.
April 27th, 2005 at 8:58 pm
I think it’s pretty obvious who should be believed. At this point it would probably be pointless to make another “I work in the industry” claim because people here are probably tired of hearing it, but at least in my own experience it seems really odd that Aries would have so much knowledge of what games are being made by which company. I very much agree with Brooke.
Also, look at the facts/rumours, if that quote that one game company is expected to be using the 3D Projection in their Next Generation system, who do you think it’s going to be? Microsoft? I very much doubt that, especially with their console poised to be released so soon. Sony is a possibility, but anyone who’s been a Nintendo fan for as long as many of us probably have, know it’s their style.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:01 pm
I want to believe.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:02 pm
How the heck would he be able to tell he was in a bank?
April 27th, 2005 at 9:06 pm
Okay Burke
Looking at IP addresses is quite easy, but how the fick can you tell he’s in a bank.?
I know i can’t see where our posters are posting from, only there IP addresses. Even IP trackers can only tell you the server the traffic is coming from
April 27th, 2005 at 9:08 pm
I dont think that was Burke. Even if the IP did point to a bank, it could be because of a proxie…
April 27th, 2005 at 9:09 pm
i hope brooke and aries are both right on some points, that would be awsome. waverace in stereoscopic would be the shiznits. However, i’m still a little freaked out about the imaginable headaches many gamers and i would get playing in the 3rd dimension, unless it turns out not really that bad, then i could deffinetly work with it. let the revolutioin begin

April 27th, 2005 at 9:10 pm
Hey Nintendo fans, thanks for checking out my Microvision blog.
Microvision recently announced a new technology for low-cost widescreen virtual displays that will be worn like eyeglasses and appear to the wearer to be 60, 80 or even 100″ across. Here’s the story:
http://microvision.blogspot.com/2005/03/microvision-announces-new-light.html
“According to Microvision, consumer electronics companies are interested in wearable displays that can simulate the “immersive” viewing experience of a movie theater or a very large - 80 to 100 inch - high resolution television. Such systems have to be both practical in size and affordable in order to appeal to the mass market.
Consumer electronics companies are interested in wearable display systems for portable media of all kinds. Such systems could be used to watch films, access the Internet, or play computer games in 2D or 3D with the immersive feeling of a big-screen cinema or a really large television.”
I’m just reading the tea leaves with the rest of you guys but where there’s smoke…
thanks,
BJ

Why would Brooke Burgess post under his name here, where earlier he posted under the admin name? *sigh* (and secondly, you would think a bank would mask their IP address to an internal computer better)
April 27th, 2005 at 9:12 pm
OK this is just getting ridiculous.

What kills me is why black people don’t buy Nintendo products anymore.
Nintendo products don’t seem hip or gangsta anymore for blacks. Black people seriously are the most shallow people ever. All they ever wanna do is “drop it likes its hot”. Martin Luther King is rolling in his grave.
Anyways, thats the demographic that Nintendo should target. The niggers. Because white people look up to blacks. If they see blacks buying Revolution, then they’ll buy it too.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:22 pm

What a pathetic stereotype
That isn’t how all black people see things, that’s how the media portrays them.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:31 pm
I agree with The_Viss.
I don’t know anyone whose black who wants a Nintendo DS. Black people think they are too cool for Nintendo. They’d rather play a hip game like 50 Cent: Bulletproof, or that Snoop Dogg game called Fear and Respect.
Bunch of ghetto people.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:35 pm
Actually, the problem with blacks is they are such insecure people. Mainly black males. All they wanna do is shoot guns at each other, make some rap albums, play basketball, or dance at some clubs.
You don’t see any blacks on MTV talking about Nintendo DS or GameCube. Black people only play sport games and shooting games. Realize that.
Black people only want to play shooting games, sport games, or street racing games like Need for Speed and Midnight Club. They won’t play anythng else cause it would make them feel lame in front of their ghetto hoodrat friends.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:37 pm
All I can tell you is all of Arie’s statements are false (aside from the already known). I have seen the Revolution. I’m not giving away any information what-so-ever; just wait until E3. Stop the nonsense.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:37 pm
Jackson, you and Viss are a bunch of closeminded stereotypists. I myself know of 2 black people who have bought a DS. It’s pathetic how racist you people can be.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:40 pm
Darker, don’t even attempt it.
Edward, you’re added to my last post.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:42 pm
I agree with everyone posting about the blacks and how their hurting nintendo and the rest of the videogame industry.
The other day I brought my DS to art class at school, and 2 black kids asked what it was. I told them it was a Nintendo Ds. They both stared at each other and said, “Dawg, you should’ve gotten a PSP. Nintendo is for little kids yo.” I was about to tell them how stupid they were, but they are niggers, so I should just let them continue being ignorant.

I really cant believe what you just said. Generalizing because a couple of guys told you that? that shows you are a complete idiot. Im so upset to hear comments like this, I cant exxpress how angry I am. And im not black, but I have many black friends who dont fall into the category you just describe…

Nintendo lost the African American Democracy after GameCube.
Negros saw the purple cubes, and thought it wasn’t ghetto enough for their tastes.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:49 pm
Where the hell is that talk about Black people coming from anyway??!!!
April 27th, 2005 at 9:50 pm
Well as many of you may know there has been a lot of speculation going around about a system called Nintendo 21. Well according to what I have heared and have seen Nintendo plans to release two consoles one in which will be at a cheaper price than the other. However when going with the less exspensive version it will not aquire many of the things the other has. Another thing I forgot to mention was on the backward compatibility; apparently the Nintendo’s new console will be able to play the games from past consoles such as GC, N64, SNES, and yes NES. I belive this feature shall intrigue many people out there and could possibly lead to what I call “New Classics” so look forward to that. FOr now I have to seriously catch some shut eye E3 will be here soon enough.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:53 pm
Blacks only play sports and shooting games cause it reminds them of how life is like back in compton. Bunch of nigger boys running around with pistols.
Blacks think Animal Crossing is for females, not black males.

Heads up for those that don’t realize: This is the fake Aries.
April 27th, 2005 at 9:58 pm
Imagine if videogame consoles nowadays were made by black people.
You would have spinning rims, and bling bling hanging from the consoles.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:05 pm
WTF? Where did all these racist morons come from? While it’s true I can’t argue someone about their opinion… keep that stereotypical trash to yourself. I mean, wtf? I have gotten numerous black friends, and I know quite a few who want/have DS and Gamecubes. Why are some people just close minded assholes?
Anyway… As far as Revolution is concerned… I already told you people that I can back Aries up a little due to some friends I got inside NST and Retro, as well as some publishers I’ve been talking to recently about my own games. But all this speculation and rampent impersonation and such is making it hard for those of us with some tidbits to give you what we do know. So I guess it’s a moot point to post anything. I’m just going to say that I can’t wait for E3, it’s so close, yet so far, and I for one, will be watching Nintendo very closely.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:07 pm
This is horrible, when did this blog degenerate into this ?
April 27th, 2005 at 10:07 pm
In light of recent comments it seems that my earlier post has been widely ignored If any of you enthusiastically opinionated individuals would have concentrated more on direction and less on speculation perhaps the world would be a better place in which to live Alas your failure to partake in said task has caused conflict and aggression on this board I base this assumption on the fact that most of these racially charged comments have been made by those with a light skin complexion since they seem to be directed against those of African decent Now with this in mind I suggest you all take the opportunity to give my previous post more attention and familiarize yourself with human anatomy particularly the variations in size between different ethnicities….I think you get the picture…And recommend that those who don’t measure up post elsewhere…with post haste
April 27th, 2005 at 10:09 pm
until now I just posted a few posts……I was watching the Aries show…You know, my house is just behind the Nintendo research center in Higashiyama Kyotoshi, I ve got three japanese friends who is working there (there doing stuff like Beta test…), NONE ONE OF THEM IS KNOWING CLEARLY ABOUT THE REVOLUTION S SECRETS, third party workink on revolution…So I don t really get how this Aries can tell us so many things about revolution, though pepole from Nintendo Japan don t know about it….
But like he said, E3 will come soon…
April 27th, 2005 at 10:28 pm

April 27th, 2005 at 10:36 pm
Don’t be tearing up the African American culture.
Do you realize how long us white folks made blacks pick cotton all day?
It’s the Mexicans that are the real problem. There are barely any real Mexicans in the gaming industry. They contribute nothing.
Then again it’s good they dont. Mexicans would make lawn mower games or something. Spics.
April 27th, 2005 at 10:39 pm

Yeah, blacks and mexicans are pretty lazy.
Japs are the only smart cookies in the world. Cause they eat fish and rice all day.

April 27th, 2005 at 11:17 pm
interesting post, man.
I personally have done a lot of experimentation with VR. Looking at the patent images, I can tell you, this will not be a conventional stereo display system in the revolution.
Currently, the best option for most is a shutterglass system, these can be wireless. However, Shutterglasses are problematic with LCD and projection-based imaging. Only CRT and plasma will work with them, and on most tv’s (with a refresh rate of around 60 Hz) is going to have a lot of flickering/ghosting. Sure, this can be avoided using a computer monitor (which have faster refresh rates) but once again, the display is small compared to most TV’s.
HMD systems are an option, but making them wireless is hard, is hard on the neck when used for long periods and tend to be costly to make. I doubt it’ll use an HMD. It would also make multiplayer games a lot less fun.
Guys, I’m thinking nintendo will integrate a display system of some sort: an autosterteo display, this is an LCD monitor with a fresnel lens on the front, This method allows a stereo display without glasses. They may even try a new technique that involves retinal projection, or an integrated DLP projector of some sort.
I’m interested to see how this console will pull it off.
April 27th, 2005 at 11:19 pm
So now its against the Mexicans? Im Mexican, So fuck you!! Although I really dont care about your comments, but I was just surprised that now mexicans where mentioned in this discussion
April 27th, 2005 at 11:49 pm
What everyone needs to realize is that there is a BIG difference bewteen black people and niggers. There is also a big difference between Mexicans and dirty mexicans. There are plenty of hardworking, honest, intelligent black people in the world. But there are even more stupid niggers. Stupid niggers are the ones who like rap music even though rap artists have no talent. Wiggers are even worse though… I could go on about this for ever…

April 28th, 2005 at 12:48 am
Well…
It seems the cat’s out of the bag, so to speak. Brooke is right, and I’ve pretty much been exposed.
I do work at a branch of Fifth National Bank, and I was very bored. I apologize for deceiving you all, but I did it for two reasons:
1) To alleviate the monotony of my job here.
2) To stir up some controversy and garner some attention for Nintendo’s new console.
I’ve been a long-time Nintendo fan. I wasn’t lying when I said that I’m a gamer just like all of you; I play games whenever I get a chance. I desperately want Nintendo to succeed because I know they are far too talented in game development to let it all go. But lately, sales have been dwindling along with the mainstream image of Nintendo as a whole.
I had been excited about the Revolution ever since I heard of it a year ago. Wondering…what IS this so-called “revolutionary” feature? Will it boost sales? Will people finally recognize Nintendo they way they used to in the era of the SNES?
Naturally, then, I became very excited about E3 2005 and the rumored unveiling of the Revolution. Then a couple weeks ago, I read a news story that greatly disappointed me: Iwata said he does not plan to show it at E3.
I was pretty angry, but it did spark my imagination. I had all of these “wouldn’t it be cool if…?” and “If I was only a developer for Nintendo…” ideas. I wrote some of them down and considered emailing Nintendo, but of course I knew that it would do no good.
I eventually ended up at this blog and all the Revolution info in it. I was originally going to post a comment simply explaining my ideas…but just for the hell of it, I pretended I was a game developer. I ran with it and continued posting, fully conveying all of my hopes and dreams into writing. But that’s all they were: dreams.
Nevertheless, E3 is still approaching and Nintendo may surprise us yet. Who knows? Maybe some of my ideas will actually be implemented. Believe me, I want the Revolution to be awesome just as much as you all do.
April 28th, 2005 at 12:52 am
Where’d all that spamming come from all of a sudden ?
At this point I’m not too concerned anymore about Aries being legitimate or not, these revelations made my day and we’ll all be set within a few days anyway.
Though I can’t help being a little curious about how someone who left Nintendo last year would know so much about their upcoming E3 show, unless they settle these things 6 months in advance. I’m also puzzled by The Game as a hint, after all this is the story of a man who’s being deceived and toyed with untill the very end. Are we to apply this to Nintendo or is this Aries’ way of confessing his lies ?

April 28th, 2005 at 2:44 am
But I realised it was a lie when he started talking about acquisitions.
And Mario128 consisting of mini games, big enough to be games (SM 64 DS anyone?)
And him seeing the new zelda on revolution
And the new Ninja Gaidenesque game being developed by arakawa and kojima
And the stress ball controller that gets hot, and is somehow still wireless
April 28th, 2005 at 2:45 am
And the guess who the ‘impersonator’ that sounded exactly like him was?
April 28th, 2005 at 2:48 am
Aries you should create your own website,
Or join Nintendo’s PR and Marketing

Because that wasn’t Brooke, nor was the the reply to his thread Aries. If you read the Blogs, Brooke has a security problem happening in his forums, and he seems to be preoccupide with that at the moment. There are impersonations going on, but it ok, because anyone should have seen this coming.
Brook Signed his name Admin the last time he replied about revealing information. And if Brook wanted this to stop, he could shut down this blog anytime, and post his thoughts on the front page. People need to use their heads.

“Second off, you aren’t a developer. Because if you were a developer, your IP for most of your posts wouldn’t be coming from “Fifth Third National Bank.” You are making up these stories try to wet these people’s appetite. Too bad your little stories aren’t up on IGN. First off, you claim to be a third party developer. Not even Rareware or Silicon Knights knew about all of the projects that Nintendo had in development for GameCube. Realize something. There is a reason IGN posted my story.
Let me tell you why IGNCube posted my story. Because there is going to be a followup story on Friday. Sorry to grill up your perfect little fairy tales, “Aeris”. Now go back to working at your bank.”
As many people already know, there are many imposters on this blog. I have been misquoted many times, so I am not sure whether you are the real Brooke or another impersonator. I responded to your article because it contained many inaccurate statements. I am not concerned with being on IGN. That is not my goal; my goal is to merely share some information that I have gathered over the course of the last few years. At the beginning of the article, you warn the readers that your article is just speculation. But it contains many things that have already been discredited. I provided information that debunks the notion that the peripheral revealed at E3 2004 was a 3D emulation device. That is simply not true. Nintendo showed off a microphone at that closed door session. I am suprised the people at IGN havn’t pointed that out.
You also mention that the Nintendo Revolution’s controller will have a touch screen on it. This rumor is not new; Game Informer mentioned it as fact in their April issue. Once again, this is simply not true. Iwata has stated before that the controller will not have a touch screen.
As I have stated before, the Revolution’s controller will have gyroscopic and pressure sensitive controls. The system will also have a very advanced form of voice control capabilities. I am not concerned that IGN has not revealed this information to their readers. In 18 days, we will all find out what the Revolution is and what it isn’t. When that day comes, I won’t have to constantly fight off impersonaters or critical cynics.
If you really are Brooke, I look forward to reading your followup piece. But, the question remains, is this the real Brooke? Why would you post in this blog instead of responding to my charges on the main site? Time will tell I guess. I do not work for Silicon Knights, nor do I work at a bank.
I’m sure we could all agree that racist remarks have no business on the boards.
April 28th, 2005 at 4:49 am
Yeah the racist things should be left out of the blog. I get along with everyone it seems.

April 28th, 2005 at 5:29 am
Aries, though your story is remarkably consisten I have to say it is absolutely outlandish to the point of disbelief. Your revelations about N5 sound amazing, they reinvigorate my spirit for Nintendo that I haven’t felt for a decade, and yet I simply cannot believe what you’re saying. Capcom developing a new Devil May Cry for Revolution, Kojima jumping aboard Nintendo, Square Enix making not only a Revolution game but LEAVING Sony? Come on, all this after Iwata himself admited that Revolution may not have the strongest third party support, that it could push developers further away. With Matt from IGN contradicting your reports and attesting to weak support based on his knowledge.
Yet despite that, somehow a simple “developer” seems to have knowledge of everyone in the industry. Don’t mistake being a developer meaning you are privvy to knowledge of the projects of just about every mentionabel publisher and developer around. Why exactly would you have knowledge about these secret games, hmm? Hopefully you have a good answer
About Revolution being more powerful than Xbox 360, well I have no doubt that Nintendo could support it, but that doesn’t mean they are willing to. Unlike Sony and MS, Nintendo’s life is razor thin, they rely purely on hardware and software profits - they have never opted to take a loss on hardware and to compete with a triple-cored G5 PowerPC, a R500 ATI processor, 512mb of eDRAM etc. they will have to take some losses, there is no doubt about that. You also say 360 is difficult to develop for, I’ve heard otherwise - I’ve heard it’s about as easy as cake, with XNA it has been made incredibly easy. Perhaps I am wrong, I have had my doubts how XNA, targeted at x86 PC-like architecture would work on PowerPC architecture. Maybe it isn’t as easy as I had thought.
That said, my doubts aside, I think the “knowledge” of N5 that you’ve put forth is very intriguing and should the support be as fruitful as you’ve exposed then I’m gonna be really hard bound not to buy Revolution first. E3 is going to be an exciting time, indeed. I can’t wait.

Ok, If this i all ends up being a lie, you will go down in my books as the biggest loser ever to walk the face of the earth. You went through all this just to annoy some desperate nintendo fanboys… How pathetic are you?? Of course, if this is real, then I congradulate you for giving us all this info. If you are lying, say so now, and I will forgive you. If you continue this hoaz, we will see at E3, and if it was all a lie, you are truly a loser
April 28th, 2005 at 6:05 am
Voidler: I fully understand your concerns. Many people just don’t want to get their hopes up, especially after some of the huge letdowns Nintendo has overseen this generation. But, like I have said many times this week, wait until E3. In 18 days you will once again be proud to be a Nintendo fan.
I never said a new DMC game was coming to the Revolution. As some of the posters here can attest to, there are many impersonators on this blog. I have no idea whether Capcom is working on Revolution software. I never said Square Enix was “leaving” Sony. I can confirm, though, that they are working on a Revolution game. These are things I learned while working for Nintendo. I learned and saw many things while working for them, and I am just giving you some information. Since leaving Nintendo, I have also learned some things about development kits and such, but this information is limited. For instance, I know for a fact that EA and some other American publishers received development kits at GDC.
I mentioned a few publishers who have plans on developing for the Nintendo Revolution, but obviously this doesn’t prove that the system has “wide” 3rd party support. EA, Zoonami, Majesto, Sega, Square Enix Namco, and Activision have games in development, and I am sure many other publishers are working on Revolution games as well. If you have seen the Xbox 360’s list of developers, you know it is much bigger than this one. This could change as time goes by. At E3, Nintendo isn’t just going to suprise gamers; they are going to suprise publishers and developers as well.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:06 am
Brooke:
And I’m willing to bet you’re dead wrong on the stereo 3D angle. Read my posts earlier in this thread, the patent you’re citing as “proof” has nothing to do with 3D projection or anything like it… it’s for an in-game camera system on a normal TV / CRT display.
The Gamecube peripheral Nintendo demo’d at E3 2004 ended up being the microphone that shipped with the latest Mario Party.
Those are the ONLY sources you use to support your speculation. And they have zero basis in reality. I’m willing to bet you cash money you’re way off base.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:18 am

April 28th, 2005 at 6:19 am
Aries, I am hoping you are true. Many people in this blog probably recognise me as one of the biggest PS2 fans around (a cow as the Gamespot System Wars lingo would refer to me) but I like my Gamecube alot, it just doesn’t have the quantity to match the quality of some of its games and therein lies the problem. Possibly the two best games I’ve played this gen, RE4 and Metroid Prime are on GC yet I find myself dissapointed with everything else - Wind Waker(and not for the graphics, which I found to be the only upside), Eternal Darkness, MGS Twin Snakes etc. etc. I would love for Nintendo to regain their former glory, not just for their sake but for the sake of competition too. I’d love to revisit a two console battle again, and as fanboyish as it sounds I want Xbox 360 to be completely obliterated to the point of redundancy as a product, that the competition will outcompete MS so wholely that the system is useless. But I shouldn’t be spouting my fanboyish opinions here, I just look forward to enjoying Nintendo and Sony systems next gen - here’s to my hope that what you’re saying is true - it could be just what is necessary to revitalise Nintendo.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:21 am
I am so, so, 100% confused now.
O_o
Aries, please (the real one, whoever you are!) MAKE A FORUM OR SOMETHING, for the sake of our sanity!
These fakes/non fake aries posts are driving me insane.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:23 am
You people with your racist remarks are truly genuine idiots.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:23 am
Aries is actually telling the truth. I work with him as a concept artist at the same “mystery developer”. To those that doubt that developers have inside information, I would add that unless you yourself have been part of the development community how would you have any idea what information we are privy to? Aries is correct in that Revolution will give Xbox 360 a run for it’s money at E3. It’s a stunning system that is capable of alot more than most people realize. Just wait…May 19th will be a day you will never forget.
That paragraph was a load of horse crap fresh off the wagon. I am actually enigma7 from the Advanced Media Network Forums. I have nothing to do with any game development studio, and never have.
The point of this post is that there’s no way that we can believe anything as long as this conversation is taking place on a comments form where anyone can enter any name they wish. Look at IGN…everyone knows when Matt posts because there’s only ONE matt-ign. It’s the same as chad at warppipe or dean at n-sider.
The information that Aries has posted seems consistent and very well thought out. I almost believe some of what he’s saying based on the tone and rhetoric used. However he could just as easliy be screwing with our minds.
As much as I’d like to believe that Aries is not BS’ing us, I can’t rightly do so without assurance that the information is coming from a single poster. That being said, I suggest Aries to sign up at AMN or some other well known board, post a link there, and take up the conversation in a place where your identity cannot be spoofed.
I know you don’t seem to care if anyone believes you or not, but if you want to be legitimized, posting on an actual forum is a good place to start.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:24 am
“You people with your racist remarks are truly genuine idiots.”

April 28th, 2005 at 6:40 am
Voidler: The Nintendo vs. Sega rivalry of the 90’s was a very exciting time in gaming history. I remember wasting countless amounts of time “prooving” that Mario was superior to Sonic. Today, much of that competitive spirit has been lost. Sonic’s place in gaming is almost non existent today, and Mario has slowly lost much of his magic. We are left with the Master Chiefs and Carl Johnsons of gaming. While those are interesting characters, they will never become as signifigant to gaming as Link still is today. With the next generation of hardware, all three companies are going to come out strong. We are going to see an increase in the competitive nature of the consoles. E3 is going to usher in this new age of gaming.
Despite being the most financially successful company this generation, many people feel that Nintendo is close to their demise. There is no denying that the Gamecube underpreformed this generation, and many gamers have lost faith in Nintendo. But I am confident this is going to change at E3. Last year, all gamers were exicited beyond belief after Nintendo showed the Zelda trailer. A few months after that event, the spirit of optimism began to die down as Nintendo fell back into their old ways. At GDC this year, the optimism was rekindled again. When E3 closes its doors later this year, we are going to see a level of glee and happiness that hasn’t been seen in many years. I would dare say that most if not all gamers love Nintendo deep down, even if they do not show it. These feelings will be brought to the surface after E3.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:42 am
Aries, I have a couple questions for you.
1. Based on preliminary specs, aside from pressure balls, gyration, etc…does the NRev controller contain the same amount of buttons & analogs as a GameCube controller? Or will we have to plug in a standard Cube controller for the backwards compatibility?
2. If the controllers are completely wireless, will we begin to see 8 player and 16 player games on the NRev? (This would mostly benefit sports games of course)
April 28th, 2005 at 6:44 am
Capricorn: As of right now, I have no plans on coming to any message boards. That would reveal too much information that I would prefer to keep to myself. So, as of right now, I have not signed up on any message boards. I am a member of IGN’s board, but I rarely use it and (obviously) I use a different username.

Aries said to watch news stories closely in the next couple of weeks, and that he was surprised that some news was posted today. So I went looking and found this at 1UP.com.
“This fall, Turner Broadcasting System (TBS) will launch GameTap, an entertainment network offering games-on-demand and original programming to broadband-equipped PCs.
GameTap will reportedly feature nearly 1,000 arcade, console and PC games from 17 different publishers, initially launching with over 300 selections. Future games and programming, such as sneak peaks at upcoming games, will be rolled out on a weekly basis.
Games-on-demand services have been discussed for years, but GameTap represents a significant step forward. “Turners lifeblood is creating branded networks and we are excited about the opportunity to create an immersive environment for games following our success with other branded environments like CNN, TCM and Cartoon Network,” said Andrew T. Heller, president of domestic distribution of TBS.
Households will be allowed to enable GameTap on up to two broadband-equipped PCs simultaneously. No pricing scheme has been announced, but GameTap’s website promises a “low monthly fee.” ”
http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3139930
Is the revolutionary aspect that you can download games from the Revolutions online service? And possibly burn them to a blank DVD, or save them to a hard drive or something?
This would be really awesome for developers. It would be so much cheaper for them not to have to manufacture every game on a disc.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:50 am
I’ve just been skimming through Aries post and i must say it definately seem plausible, There is too much insight and reference to Just wait untill E3 for it to be a hoax. If it is a hoax how ever I will sure be dissapointed and Aries would get the flaming of a life time.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:52 am
Ok, sorry guys I’ve been preoccupied with the problems were having with our forums….as for whats been happening with this blog im really supprised and a bit dissapointed that things have gotten this far out of controll. In fairness I guess i’m to blame in part. I should have had the forsight to see that our little corner of the web would have been flooded with blithering idiots when the IGN article went up about my revelations.
As for this Aries fella…I have no clue who he is, but if there was any validity to his claims its impossible to know now because of the people who feel like it’s clever to take the same name as somone else. That said I can say with 99% certainty that the things he’s claiming are BS, there are no DEV. that would have this much info about what Nintendo has in store for the REVOLUTION apart from their in-house DEVS. and even their not privy to this much info.
As for the racist hate talk that this blog has degraded into it is completly unexceptable sadly theres not much I can do at this point. I have thought about implementing a registration process but I dont think thats needed at this point simply because i’m sure “our corner of the web” will get back back to normal once people relize Mr. Aries is not legit.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:53 am
I was thinking that very thing. What if Revolution has a massive storage and used the high speed connection to just download the game?
April 28th, 2005 at 6:55 am
Brooke would usually post as “Admin” with a capital “A” and no “.” period at the end.
Nice try though.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:56 am
hi there.
well, I just wanted to give my two cents on this issue. I don’t know that much about revolution. I worked for one of the other big companies of the gaming industry vor about 3 years and got a few informations, but nearly not as much as aries claims to have. But I know that there are developers out there that know enough to claim such things. And I know that some of them are willing to risk their jobs and share this informations in the online communities. That’s the same way how we got the Xbox 360 informations. But no one ever told so much in just one place within two days like aries so this makes all sound very untrue.
As I have said, I can’t confirm that aries is right or wrong. Maybe he is just a damn good faker because as Capricon already said, his tone and rhetoric sound quite serious. I can understand that aeris is not willing to write this in a forum with registration because it would be so much easier to track him down then.
As far as I’m concered, I’m not going to get my hopes up to high, learning from various comparable situations in the past (just one word: megaton). But then there is one information he is sharing about revolution that I have heard of. And I have never heard of it in the online community or on some website but I have heard of it from “industry insiders” and internal documents (not from Nintendo itself but there are things like competitor analysis…). It’s the vague and cryptical pressure sensitive control that can be compared to a stress ball. I have heard that the revolution controller itself can be squeezed to have a new form of control in games like… Wave Race.
That is at least a nice coincidence and we will see if there is more behind it in about three weeks. I’m thrilled to see what Nintendo has prepared for this E3 especially since I’m not expecting anything innovative from Microsoft and not much innovation from Sony. Maybe this is the time Nintendo can deliver - they know their business, they know their competition. And Iwata showed us his view with the GBA SP, DS and his great and very personal speech at GDC. I think Nintendo is ready to team up with some Japanese developers. They did that within the last month with Sega and F-Zero, with Namco and Donkey Konga, with Capcom and Zelda Minish Cap, even with EA and NBA Street. This is not the behaviour of a sleeping giant. This is the behaviour of someone who is keen to show his consumers that he is very much alive (and ready to take some names and kick some asses…). I’m not sure if aeris is making up things but I’m absolutely sure that Nintendo will show us more than the next GameCube with visuals that can’t equal Xbox 360. If this is going to be gyration and “stressball control” and a launch lineup with a new Retro FPS and the next SquareEnix offering, we will see. But do you really think Retro is working on the third metroid? Nintendo won’t go out with three metroid games for home consoles within four years additional to prime hunters and metroid pinball. I’m really sure Retro is working on something else that will be based on an prototype Metroid 3 engine. And yeah, a FPS would be the perfect match.
I don’t want to give aeris my full believe and support. But I want to show you that you can have hopes and trust in Nintendo because that’s all the pre-E3-time is about. Having fun in speculating about our hobby, having fun to check rumors and see what sounds realistic and what not. And for me, this rumor sounds pretty nice and cool - I’m having a lot of fun right now. And if Nintendo is not willing to show us much of a revolution, well. Then I’ll have a new Zelda, a new DS online service, a new Xbox and plenty of great games at this E3. Just a few weeks to go, folks. Enjoy it!
April 28th, 2005 at 6:56 am
Aries if you are true, your Company should have given you a deadline to make the game by, Meaning when do you expect your game will be published and out on the shelves Sometime Mid Next year perhaps? or does Nintendo want too rush Revolution out onto the market like the DS and your company want it to be a Launch title?.
Many have been talking about Nintendo’s online strategy and I would like to know the Interface if we can check Emails does that mean we can use a Keyboard and mouse in the system via USB ports? also Nintendo has stated the online is free does that mean we still need a Internet Service Provider and a Wireless Router or does online simply mean a whole city can connect with eachover through Blue tooth or something?.
Also will Revolution be region free also like the DS. I am a PAL gamer and I am sick of waiting Months to sometime a Year for a game. If you do not know, Can you give some info atleast if your game will be released Worldwide at once like Halo2 or will it be released Region by Region?(Japan, America, Australia, Europe, Brazil)
and what is your Favorate game and has it influenced you in the input of this game or future games?
April 28th, 2005 at 6:57 am

Paladin: That is an interesting question. There was a rumor going around that the controller would not have an A or B button. I found that to be quite misleading, since the PS2 controller doesn’t have those button either. The controller we received is not a final product, so this could change in the future. It will have the same amount of buttons. There will be no d-pad. At one time it did not have shoulder buttons (L & R). Nintendo has made it a priority to simplify games, and I think the controller is a perfect example of this. By using pressure sensitive controls, this opens the possibility of only using one or two buttons. For instance, with your right hand you would be able to use the pressure sensitive grip to control the speed of a vehicle on the screen. With your thumb you would control navigation by manipulating the analog stick. Using voice controls you could fire your weapons, although this would be optional. If you used this control scheme, your left hand would be free. Or you could just not use the voice commands and opt to use the left shoulder button to fire weapons. This scheme allows developers to give gamers the ability to choose how they want to control their game. Metroid Hunters would be a good example of this level of control choice.
I don’t know anything about 8-16 man multiplayer, although it seems very logical. This could possibly be used in a Mario Party type game.
April 28th, 2005 at 7:09 am
There will be no d-pad.
So backwards compatibility would not work then and you’d have to plug in a standard Cube controller. Metroid Prime for example uses the D-pad for the HUD at the bottom.

Link, please?
April 28th, 2005 at 7:11 am
yeah the 16 player option crossed my mind when I thought of the amount of channels on a Wavebird. I envisioned “friends” bringing their controllers over.

“So backwards compatibility would not work then and you’d have to plug in a standard Cube controller. Metroid Prime for example uses the D-pad for the HUD at the bottom. ”
No, the whole “No D-Pad or A/B buttons” thing was a rumor, as is this entire 1,000 replies, and the original post

Here you go:
Brooke got some things right, but much of it is flawed. I don’t know whether he just made up a lot of that stuff, because many of the points have been disproven before. For instance, Game Informer wrote an article on the next generation consoles in which it claims the Revolution’s controller will have one giant touch screen. I’m thinking this is where Brooke got that idea. The Revolution will not have a touch screen. Iwata has stated this before. The controller will be quite normal in the sense that it will have a d-pad and buttons. Like I said, I’m not going to tell you the revolutionary aspect of the system. Nintendo has some cool pre E3 plans for that. ”
Nice try.
April 28th, 2005 at 7:15 am
I scrolled up and noticed all this talk about blacks. People shouldn’t put down blacks, even though a lot of them are dumb nigger rappers, or low educated. Even if like 55 percent of blacks are uneducated stupid niggers, people should not be racist against them.

Hey guys, this is all about Nintendo Revolution, not about black and white people! STOP THE DISCUSSION!
April 28th, 2005 at 7:21 am
Nice find Anon. He did previously state the controller would have a d-pad you’re right.
ugh, these imposters can suck my cock. grow up.
April 28th, 2005 at 7:24 am
“I don’t know anything about 8-16 man multiplayer, although it seems very logical. This could possibly be used in a Mario Party type game.”
This also seems very odd considering he said 40 man multiplayer for one of the games, can’t remember which.
April 28th, 2005 at 7:24 am
Kevin and Paladin: You both read my mind. At GDC, Iwata stated quite clearly that the Revolution will be backwards compatible. I had heard that before then, but I am still confused on that issue. The controller has all the buttons that the Gamecube one does. But for many Gamecube games, the d-pad is used. How will Nintendo get around this? I don’t know.
My favorite game would have to be The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. There are many things that I love about the game, but the controls stand out to me as a developer. They are very easy to use, and the player never has to stumble around with the controller. With our game, we want to make sure that control issues do not frustrate the player. The same can be said of camera issues. Ocarina of Time also had a very grand storyline, and we are trying to make sure our game has one as well. That is all I’m going to say about that.
Kiron: I doubt the Revolution will use a keyboard. I can confirm that it will not use a mouse though. The gyroscopic functionality of the system allows for a level of control similar to that of a mouse. This function will be used to navigate the Revolution’s “homepage”. If you have ever used a mouse with gyroscopic technology, you will be familiar with this.
April 28th, 2005 at 7:24 am
This also seems very odd considering he said 40 man multiplayer for one of the games, can’t remember which.
I think that was refering to online play.
April 28th, 2005 at 7:26 am
Also the 40 man multiplayer would not be possible with just a broadband connection. This would require servers either hosted by players, or Nintendo themselves (which would cost Ninny a buttload of money.)

Now you’ve confused me. I was saying I’m sure there WILL be a d-pad on the rev controller.
On the off chance that it doesn’t, and all the controllers are wireless, they could still make it compatible with the WaveBird controllers. Just a thought.
(That’s considering you’re the real Aries O_o)
April 28th, 2005 at 7:29 am
I wanna thank you Aries for dropping some info and hints.
I have a question though. How big of a system is Revolution compared to Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3? And what color is it?

This is the reason why I hate it when people say Nintendo is losing the console war. With a profit vault like this I’d say they are winning.

“Aries is not commenting on the downloadable games story. I think this is the revolutionary aspect.”
It could be possible, as (assuming what he’s said IS true) the disk format is part of the revolutionary part of the console. Rewritable media? Possible, but not likely, as Nintendo is always against piracy, and that would just be opening hundreds of doors for piracy to occur.
April 28th, 2005 at 7:39 am

He also said the media format had to do with the revolutionary aspect. Maybe the drive is writable?

April 28th, 2005 at 7:41 am
So Aries, earlier you said the “no d-pad + no A & B buttons” rumor was false. now you say it doesn’t have a d-pad.
Me confused.
April 28th, 2005 at 7:42 am
On mutiplayer: Our game will be online. You will be able to play it offline with four players, but that’s it. Mario Party was an example of what could possibly be done with this feature.
I have not seen the other systems. The early builds of the Revolution are very interesting though. I have not seen final builds of the system. We have a prototype of it. It is blackish grey, and it is larger and wider than the Gamecube. As with the controllers, this will certainly change by the time it hits the market. Remember, when the DS was first shown, it looked very different from the current one on the market. At one time, it did not have a d-pad.
On the Xbox 360: One thing I do know is that it will be smaller than the current Xbox. But, I’m sure you knew that already. Spong released some photos that they claim are final builds of the system, and many sites have run the story. We will see at E3.

April 28th, 2005 at 7:47 am
I apologize for the mis-statement. From what I have seen, it doesn’t have a d-pad right now. Like I said though, this could change in the future. With the DS, at one time it didn’t have a d-pad. Eventually Nintendo came to their senses and added it on. I don’t even want to imagine how poor the DS controls would be without a d-pad.

He’s not commenting on a lot of things, such as how he claims to have access to a dev kit, and has been working on a title for the Revolution, but doesn’t know if this game’s resolution will be 640 or 1080, which is one of the first questions an engineer would have to answer if he were developing a game for a console.
And Brooke, I’m still waiting for you to admit that your 3D rumor is total bullshit, based on a misreading of the fixation point patent and sloppy fact-checking.

Vigilante: I have no idea. I havn’t seen any fighting games, although I’m sure they could be done effectively on the Revolution. I don’t see how the pressure sensitive or voice controls would be used. The gyroscopic capabilities probally wouldn’t be used either.
April 28th, 2005 at 8:14 am
Aries, is your game using “normal mapping?”
=-P
April 28th, 2005 at 8:20 am
wave mapping is the future
April 28th, 2005 at 8:21 am
Aries admitted that he is working on the new Vectorman game. Doesn’t anyone see the flaw in that? By admitting what he’s working on, he’s revealed himself. It doesn’t take a genius to realize that Nintendo knows who’s working on their games. If this guy was the real deal, he never would’ve admitted that. It’s the exact same thing as telling us which company he works for.
April 28th, 2005 at 8:24 am
I have given away too much information about my project. I have shared with you that it will be a 3rd person action/adventure game. Those are more than enough details. If I give away too many details on the technical aspect of our project, you will guess what we’re doing. If you are asking me these questions to try to determine whether I am making these things up, I would advise you to try something else. At E3, we will be giving out details on the game. It will not be at E3 though, as I said earlier.
April 28th, 2005 at 8:28 am
I’m actually asking if it will have “normal mapping” just to get an idea of the systems power. Not trying to be a smart ass.
I don’t think that gives away the game.

The major problem I see with this Stereoscopic 3d for Revolution is cost. InFocus (www.depthq.com) makes a 3D Video Projector and it costs $3,495. A replacement lamp costs $299. I guess it would be a revoution if Nintendo could find a way to use this technology at a standard console price point.
April 28th, 2005 at 8:39 am
You bring up a good point. You all have to understand that Nintendo is obsessed with making their things as cheap as possible. They will never make their system to be more powerful than the PS3 in order to keep it cheap. Anything they have chosen with their new system has to be cheap, in comparison to 360 and PS3. The bottom line is money, so don’t expect them to go all out with perfect amazing 3d projection and holographic mapping and the sort. It’s too expensive.
April 28th, 2005 at 8:44 am
Aries: 640, 720 or 1080? If you can’t answer that simple question, there’s no way you can have a dev kit.
April 28th, 2005 at 8:46 am
Actually, 640 should be “480″, as that is the vertical resolution of a standard TV display.
April 28th, 2005 at 8:48 am
This place sure died fast. I miss Brooke. I wish he’d continue his postings. He promised.

How weird this was…but then again, I did read all of this in one go, and I honestly think that whoever took part in the racial slurring, as a joke or as a serious attack, should seriously get their S$#t together and go to therepy.
In response to all the speculation, many of you are close, but should beware that the Revolution might not be what everyone is expecting it to be…and that some comments and news from the last E3 to now should not be thought about in the manner in which we are prone to think.
Take that as you will

The list on there is just something I threw together for the IGN forums.
Also, Aries, much as I’d like to believe you, I just can’t see Nintendo doing a complete 180 as you seem to be applying.
I hope what you’ve said is correct and the truth but I don’t expect it to be.
April 28th, 2005 at 9:12 am
Some interesting points on this thread…A lot of bullshit, but some good points none the less. It sounds like Aries better be careful of what he says. The Internet is not as anonymous as he would like to believe.

When i first read that i automatically though of the nintedo rumor about displaying things on the screen @ different angles and such. i advice anyone whos sceptical to check out http://www.opticalitycorp.com im not saying this is true im just saying its more possible than people think

I am not saying Aries is totally wrong, because he is right on the spot with most of his stuff. Which is strange, because I am positive that he is no developer. But to put down my speculation is pretty ridiculous. At the same time this man is pretending to be a developer, trying to create a fanbase surrounding him. The IP I tracked lead me to information to his company info which was “Fifth Third Bank”.
Now with that said, like I said before, tomorrow will have a follow up story to my Stereoscopic story on IGN tomorrow, which is a Friday. The story won’t reveal much information, but remember how in the original blog I wrote that I would reveal some “game details”? Well the game details that will be revealed tomorrow won’t be posted on Broken Saints. It will be posted on cube.ign.com, check that out. There will even be exactly two screenshots attached to the IGN article. The article will have to do with two games. One is a brand new racing franchise from Nintendo. The other is a game from a company known as Hal Lab. I wont reveal much more. Just wait till tomorrow night. There will also be an article how Nintendo plans to market Geist for the Nintendo GameCube.
April 28th, 2005 at 9:29 am
I’m actually amazed now that I think about it. How could so many things be revealed on one message board? Although…
Surely someone would have come up with it by now, but then, we cannot think in the old way, can we?
E3 2005 will be big for Revolution, but 2006 is the one to wait for.
Oh, and have any of you thought about the graphics as being a small part of the ‘Revolution’? Just take care to ‘visualize’ it…

To Brook: Well, I am beginning to think that you are indeed the real one. Once again, though, I am not working at a bank. I’m not even close to a bank right now. If you don’t believe I am a developer, fine. At E3 you will change your mind. I seriously doubt you have screen shots of Revolution games. If so, Nintendo must have provided them to you. I doubt they would do that.
I did not dismiss all of your article. In fact, we agree on many instances. For instance, you mention gyroscopic control in your article. But like I said before, there are two major problems with your speculation. The major point of your article, that Nintendo will use a certain 3D function in the Revolution, is totally false. The peripherial showed at E3 2004 had nothing to do with that. Once again, I do not understand why IGN hasn’t pointed this out to you. Your second point concerning touch screen control on the controller is also flawed. Nintendo has stated that the Revolution will not have a touch screen device.
I look forward to Friday’s news. But, like I said, E3 is where my information will be justified. Until then, we could go back and forth disagreeing with one another. I am very interested in seeing the pictures you mentioned. Talk to you Friday.

Aries care to respond? If you are a developer tell me something ONLY a developer educated person would know. What degree did you graduate with? What building makes up NOA, whats the floor structure, etc.? Post a picture ONLY a developer would have. Not of an upcoming game or anything, but maybe of your degree with your name/school marked out, or something you got at NOA to which they cannot track you if you are the real deal.
And Brooke why are you POSITIVE he’s not a developer?
April 28th, 2005 at 9:52 am
Well, the educated knew that: Aries = random fanboy
But even if that was the real Brooke’s post, how would he have access to those screens. Although, if it was an imposter, he wouldn’t have promised such a close deadline for the info, he would have said something like “Wait till after E3 lollolololol”
April 28th, 2005 at 10:00 am
What is revolution graphics are real life. Like you couldnt tell the difference?
April 28th, 2005 at 10:05 am
I do not feel I have to prove myself to anyone. I have been sharing information with you for the last few days, that’s all. I am not going to give give out any information that will make me lose my job. So far, I have succeeded in doing this. After E3 you will understand what I am talking about. I am not here to make deadlines or promises. I am merely stating fact. The fact is that the Revolution is going to steal the show at E3. The fact is that it will have gyroscopic and pressure sensitive controls. I have repeated the same information many times. I am not going to share more information right now. I said yesterday that I would reveal more E3 information later in the week. I will. Wait until then, and then wait until E3.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:07 am
thanks Squaracter, reading that patent and a couple others makes things make alot more sense, no where in the patents does it say ANYTHING about stereoscopic 3-d all it talks about is displaying things in a 3-dimensional space(like every system since the n64)
April 28th, 2005 at 10:11 am
@ Aries,
Not to mention the fact that even if you DID provide pictures, nobody could prove that they were yours
Guys, just wait till May 19th. If he’s lying so be it, but right now, I think this is for real.
I accepted being wrong about Jadrule.tk, and if this is a hoax too, then oh well, no biggie.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:14 am
Aries, will the Revolution load from the top like the Gamecube, or the front like the xbox 1 and Ps2?
Oh and, how close does Wave Race’s graphics look compared to real life?
Also, which system has a Physical Processing Unit? You should know this since you’re a developer.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:15 am

There is no way to know who is who here!
I can’t believe any of what being said here, not a single word.

What’s your degree then Aries? It would take as much time to tell me what NOA looks like and what degree you have as typing that response.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:19 am
Good grief, will you guys either just leave him alone, or go away?
What’s to stop him from saying he has a Masters Degree in computer programming and engineering, or something like that?
Would that convince you? Seriously, get a grip, or get a life. Preferably both.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:20 am
Ok, i just want to set something straight. i as a black guy myself can say that i love nintendo, and have had every nintendo system made, accept VB and gameboy color. Also just because the one black person that you’ve seen in you’re life doesn’t play nintendo, doesn’t mean that there are not more people like me. maby if nintendo made more games that related to our livestyles, or even a game with a black person in we might think they care.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:23 am

April 28th, 2005 at 10:29 am
I personally have no problem with any race its culture that I hate more. I don’t like the ghetto rapper culture, I can live with it I just think it teaches the wrong values in people. You can be white, black, asian, latin american or any other race and have that mentality. I think it is better to think that way rather than be racist.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:30 am

I think he blames black’s for nintendo’s failures this generation, but the truth is it’s all nintendo’s fault. i know all kinds of white people that hate nintendo because they are tired of seeing the Mario’s and other cute nintendo character’s. it’s not our fault, it nintendo’s for not making new franchises that escape the “feel and look” that most nintendo games feature. i think the reason that alot of us still play these games, is because we fell in love with them when we were kids. so that kinda helps us to look past the kiddie image.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:47 am
Aries, either admit to lying now, or say you are telling the truth. IF you say you are not a liar, then I will not question you anymore. However, if your “info” turns out to be completely false, I wont be able to hunt you, but your image will simply be shattered. Its hard for me to imagine anyone who would write all that you wrote, say all that you said, and barely get any sleep, just to piss fanboys off. I dont think Brooke is the real Brooke since he usually posts under Admin, and I doubt Aries would be in a bank since I cant see you getting away with this while working in one. A few things youve done, like Rare (supposedly a typo), the fact that youre a dev but cant reveal specs or any type of proof, and the fact that you’re not even trying to reveal something to prove you arent a hoax are all bothering me, but youve written so much (consistently) and have given us many details that I couldnt think of. So, I believe you are the real deal. Just answer my question to ensure it: Are tou lying, or are you telling the truth? If you admit to lying, its ok, if you say youre telling the truth, then Ill believe you. However, like I stated before, if you claim to be true and tell us to wait for E3, but all this ends up a lie, you truly are a sad sad individual.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:52 am
So anyway…
I think it’s not all that difficult to distinguish the imposters from the real Aries. First off, the real Aries doesn’t make biased and fanboyish posts like: OMGZZ!! Rev0lut10n Onlin3 will t0t4lly blow Xb0x Live! out of teh waterz0r!!11! Why not? Because he’s a multiplatform developer and they usually do not make such comments (even while I exaggerated it a bit)!
Secondly, it’s quite obvious from the way he “talks” on this blog which has some kind of good rhetoric, assertiveness and plausibility to it, compared to the more excessive enthusiasm that the imposters tend to carry with them. Also, the real Aries doesn’t make many spelling mistakes.
Third is the fact that the imposters tend to claim things which, quite simply, sound waaay to good to be true. For example the whole talk about the Revolution online service, or the DMC game, or Square-Enix leaving Sony. It’s really not all that hard to distinguish them as it might seem.
—
Anyway, back to the subject. As Brooke just stated (he probably IS the real one…though he probably will only be able to prove it for certain, by posting a new blog all about this very discussion), most of what Aries is claiming, does seem to be quite on target. The same was said by the guy who claims to be working for an Indie developer as well as this INMHS fellow who simply came out of nowhere for no apparant reason. This is saying one thing for me: both Brooke and Aries have at least some plausibility to their claims. How much of this is fact, and how much is simply wild speculation, wont probably be revealed ’till E3. Of course you can go on about asking Aries to describing the NOA offices or giving a detailed description of the look of the Rev and it’s innards, but that’s all way to risky for anyone to reveal. What he shared with us up until now was already true borderline stuff, so don’t expect too many other details.
—
I have only one question for the real Aries: could you summarise everything about the Revoltion which was actually said by you yourself and NOT any of the imposters here? Would be really appreciated since I still lost sight of all it’s features despite the fact that the imposters could be quite easily distinguised by the real thing.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:55 am
DO 3 things, Aries:
1)Summarize everything
2)Answer me if youre telling the truth (like I asked above)
3) Why cant you describe anything about the NOA building? Thats not confidential…
And Brooke, if you are the real deal, post this whole fiasco on the front page
April 28th, 2005 at 10:56 am
I think that they are real and that all the confused posters are all fake.

Shut up Viss. You know black people are responsible for changing the perception on Nintendo. Fucking douchebag piece of shit.
Blacks think they are too cool to play Nintendo, and thats a fact. Most black who played N64 now are playing Xbox or PlayStation 2.
Playing their fucking Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
Fucking Spades.

Guys, The_Viss is a troll. Let’s not honor his message with a response.
April 28th, 2005 at 11:11 am
So, Aries, anything about Soul Calibur DS
April 28th, 2005 at 11:12 am
Why are people bashing black people?
Black people didn’t take commercial airliners and throw them into the world trade center. It’s sandnigger arabian muslims like Namlas who did it.
Ask any mudslim. In the Quaran it says you go to heaven if you kill a christian/catholic. They are fucking sick. Them and their Al-Zarqawi who goes around cutting off heads of people and videotaping.
Arab muslims like Namlas are sandniggers, and should be ashamed of themselves. They should go hang themselves with their scarfs. Dark pieces of shit. Go back to the desert. Go back to your goddamn country.

@ Darkness
You can’t expect him to know everything ya know. He probably just knows what he saw during his time at NOA (they were probably already working on Revolution even before GameCube was finished and brought to market), everything his own developer is doing and things he hears from his personal contacts with people from other publishers and developers (which he most probably has like most people in the industry).
April 28th, 2005 at 11:16 am
This is all very interesting…I hope this isn’t some incredible story dreamed up by some fanboy who is gonna say on May 15th, fooled you. That’d suck. But here’s hoping it turns out to be true, cuz that’d be revolutionary enough to warrent a launch day purchase by me. At the moment anyway. You never know what tomorrow brings right.
Ryan
April 28th, 2005 at 11:19 am
@ George
The Quaran doesn’t state ANYWHERE that one goes to heaven when killing christians/catholics. That’s stupid propaganda BS thought up by so-called “religious” leaders with a lust for power and control. Sorry to say this, but it’s so typical for the average American to think this way. It’s also happening more and more over here in the Netherlands. Way too many people who honestly have no idea what they’re talking about.
April 28th, 2005 at 11:19 am
To George:
This isn’t in the koran. The koran is like the bible. There are just other “religious” people (sorry, i suck at english) that have made these other things up. The islam in itself is a good thing. There are just a few, or maybe a lot, people who use it in a bad way.
Now go on about video games. :S
April 28th, 2005 at 11:22 am
Funny, I said the same thing as Ronn. And it seems we’re both from Holland!

April 28th, 2005 at 11:27 am
Hey I can be a PENIS too.
April 28th, 2005 at 11:28 am
Hey Aries, could you provide us with some more information on the DS, such as the online service, upcoming games, etc.?
April 28th, 2005 at 11:31 am
To Ronn:
Maybe letting him answer the question will be good. It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t know the answer, I just wanted to see if he knew it. I know he doesn’t know everything about the industry.

(The scene shows a man named Bob hiding behind some wooden crate boxes with a video camera talking into it)
Bob: To whoever gets this video, I just want to let you know there may not be much time for me left. Theres a group that has taken over the city and has put barricades up to make sure all people who are non-black ethnicity don’t escape the city. The group behind these actions are the “Black Jellybeans”. The Black Jellybeans are a hostile group of young African-Americans who share views with guys like Adolph Hitler and Spike Lee. To be honest, I always thought they were the same people.
(A scene shows a white man being beheaded on the street by members of the Black Jellybeans)
(Bob runs and members of the black jellybeans catch him and eat his head.
Newsreporter: Folks, panic is running rampant on the streets. Fat black women are wearing coats made out of skinny white women. White babies are being fed to black babies. I haven’t seen this much pandemonium since George Bush banned all the gays to Mount Everest.
(You see the Black jellybeans holding an anti-white people rally)
Marcus: We, the blacks, have been discriminated for too long. For years, we, the blacks of America, have played second fiddle to the jews. When we, the blacks of America, decided to make a hip hop album, who reaped most of our profits?
Crowd: THE JEWS!
Marcus: When we, the blacks of America, were captured in a fish net, brought on a boat to a country called “America”, who had sex with our women, and made fun of how we mixed berry juice into our cornrolls?
Crowd: The Crackers!
Marcus: And when we wanted to fit in, who wasn’t happy with that?
Crowd: The Mexicans!
Marcus: And who always made us feel less smart just because of all the computers they make and shit like that?
Crowd: The Asians!
Marcus: So my fellow people, join me in this fight. This will be a struggle to be long remembered for we will take charge in turning white America back into Black America!
Crowd: YEAHHHHH!!!!!!!!

April 28th, 2005 at 11:35 am
Errm, I feel sorry for all the stupid freaks that believe this BS. And Aries, how can you say that Microsoft copied the wireless controller idea from Nintendo? That is an obvious feature, Nintendo didn’t create the idea. Also Aries, earlier, you talked about some disk medium being part of the Revolutionary aspect, first off I think you’re talking BS and that your idea of a gaming Revolution is the motor spining in a disc drive, also about this statement, you said something about a battery, wtf, why does it have a friken battery? Another one of your mistakes was earlier, when you said a new Super Smash Brothers Melee game is in the works, why is it another title with the Melee suffix, they would sureley have created a new name for a new game. The truth is Aries, you’re just some 35 year old Nintendo/Sony fanboy with nothing better do than to plant fake information around and pass it off as the real deal, again, if you believe this BS, then well, I feel sorry for you.
April 28th, 2005 at 11:37 am
BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
~AND THE SHEEP DIES.
Revolution(Revolver, King Zilla, Generator, J-Man) vs. Team DCW(STiNG, Mike Steele, Cory, ????)
~King Zilla takes the microphone to a chorus of boo’s and a thunderous, “Zilla Sucks!” chant.~
King Zilla: WELL, WELL, WELL! LOOOOOOOK who’s back! Mr. Showtime, Mr. Primetime, the Blonde Bomber, the sexiest man in America, the stud USC grad, THE ONE……THE ONLY……KKKKINNNNNGGGG ZILLLLAAA!
~The fans just boo harder and harder as another, “Zilla Sucks!” chant fires back from the grandstands.~
King Zilla: Zilla Sucks? Zilla Sucks? You fans have the AUDACTIY to chant that I SUCK after I, Mr. Primetime thoroughly HUMILIATED your hero, Ryan Bensen?
~The “Zilla Sucks!” chant gets louder as louder as King Zilla adjusts his shades and smiles back.~
King Zilla: I stood there, in my hometown of Las Angeles, and I told the world what I was going to do at Monday Night Massacre last week. I told the entire wrestling world that I was going to walk into Monday Night Massacre, walk into the confines of a brutal steel cage, and whip Ryan Benson from pillar to post. I told everybody that Ryan Benson didn’t stand a chance in hell against me, and what do you know? I was right…as always. You see, it’s getting almost comical and redundant to me. Week after week after week, I come out here after proving myself in the ring, and what do I get? Respect? Honor? No, I get 20,000 drunken BAFOONS booing me and trying to tear me down. Well, guess what? It sure as hell isn’t working! ~more boo’s from the sellout crowd.~ You see, if this whole intimidation thing from the fans was working, I would be mentally broken down and finished. If these fans affected me, I would have gotten my ass kicked from one side of the ring to the other against Ryan Benson. If these fans affected me, I would be too scared to come out here. But guess what? HERE I AM! Here I am with a Tag Team Championship dangling from my shoulder. Here I am, having defeated “Mr. Champion Fraud” Ryan Benson twice in a row, having defeated Sting and Carnage for the Tag Team Titles, and doing everything that I have set out to do thus far in my young and glorious career. The fans are in a state of shock and jealousy. They WISH that I would crumble and fall before their hero’s, but the best wrestler of all time doesn’t do that. No, he just keeps on rolling, and that’s exactly what I have been doing.
I notice Ryan Benson still crying over me. Shouldn’t that loser be worrying about not getting run out of the gym against Sean Cain for his precious title belt? You see, I hear that loser Ryan Benson talk about how if it weren’t for him this company would be half of what it is? He talks about how he is the show? Ryan Benson is nothing. Ryan Benson can’t explain the fact that MY SEGMENTS are the highest rated on television. He can’t explain the fact that MY MATCHES are the highest rated in the sport. Ryan Benson can’t explain the fact that Sting rehired me to SPIKE up the ratings, which I have done. He can’t explain the fact that I have guaranteed to kick his ass two straight matches, and I have done just that. Can somebody please explain to me what is so great about that clown again? It’s laughable. His existence is nothing short of a joke to me. He runs his mouth night after night about me, yet every damn time I face him one on one, I beat him CLEANLY. You fans cheer and love him week after week, and yet boo me, the superior wrestler? It just goes to show you the intelligence of the common wrestling fan. The size of their brain is about the size of Ryan Benson’s deflated ego after I whooped his ass in front of all his supporters. What else do I have to prove? Nothing; absolutely nothing. I have beaten EVERYBODY that has challenged me. I have proved EVERY critic of me wrong time and time again. I have proved to the entire world that what I say is the absolute truth and the absolute LAW. I am the best there ever was, the best there is now, and the best there EVER WILL BE. I am MONEY in the CLUTCH and NAILS in the TRENCHES. My name is Mr. Primetime for the simple fact that not a damn person in the back can stop me when the lights are shining brightest, and boy will they EVER be shining more brightly than at Victory 5? I think not.
Now I have come out here to speak about my two different matches. I have been double booked and I gladly accept the challenge to once again prove why I am without a shadow of a doubt the most dominating force in wrestling today. My first major challenge comes in the form of a tag team titles match. Revolver and I proved what a formidable pair we are when we defeated Carnage and Sting and took the titles away from them like stealing candy from a baby. Carnage was mentally dismantled, as he was so intimidated of The Future that he decided not to even show up. Who else can do that? Who else can psychologically destroy somebody so much that they don’t even have the courage or will anymore to compete for the rights to still be called champion?? Revolver and I mentally BURRIED Carnage and he has yet to be seen since. He was mentally hammered and taken a part in pieces. Sting, on the other hand, decided to show up, and boy did he get the ass whooping of his life. Revolver and I could only laugh and feel sorry for what Sting was going through. He was an old man getting thrashed and thrashed in front of his millions of fans watching at home. He could only hope to come out of the match alive as blood was trickling down his forehead and tears were running inside of his eyes. He knew it was over. Sting knew his reign as champion as finished. At the end of the day, as he lied there motionless while we were crowned champions of the world, he could only hope that his wrestling career wasn’t completely ruined. Sting was a battered, bloodied mess and The Future was in complete control, tag team champions of DCW.
Now, Revolver and I face our first title defense since winning the gold just a few short weeks ago, and whom do we face? ESP? What a laughable existence those two clowns share together. I saw them the other night rolling into the ring, dancing and prancing around the squared circle talking about how great they were and how we were finished? No, the only two people who are going to be finished this Sunday are those two babbling buffoons, Douglas and Brooks. They want to come back and get a shot at our title belts? Well, they are going to be very, very disappointed on Sunday night. Those two punks should have left this fed for good. They simply don’t belong here. Revolver and I are of a class by ourselves. Brooks and Douglas are not even HALF of what Revolver and I are as a tag team. You see, Brooks and Douglas THINK they belong and they THINK they have a chance of beating us on Sunday Night, but that isn’t realism speaking folks….no that’s simply delusional. Brooks and Douglas are not living in the real world; they are dreaming up fantasies, and overwhelmingly ridiculous fantasies at that. They are dreaming and visioning false hope, a sense that they truly belong in the same ring as The Future. They don’t. They never did. No body belongs in the same ring as us. Brooks and Douglas will get that reality check on Sunday night when they are seeing little birdies chirping above their heads while they lay there physically hammered and mentally fried. In that instant, when Brooks and Douglas are down on the ground with blood oozing down the sides of their face, watching Revolver and I raise our belts victoriously, they will know they just met their fate, the fate of The Future.
Douglas and Brooks are going to be talking themselves up to all of the fans around the country about how good they are, and how they are the class of the tag team division, but it’s all nonsense, and in the end, it doesn’t mean a DAMN thing. Because when Revolver and I are beating them senselessly, smacking them both around like our piñatas, they will realize VERY quickly who WE are and who THEY are. The Future is an indestructible force, an intimidating, psychopathic, relentless, and all mighty tag team that simply cannot be stopped. Not only do we toss our opponents from side to side like ragged dolls, but we don’t even break a sweat doing so. The tag team division as it stands is simply not up to par to us. We are light years ahead of ANYBODY in this federation, and we will never be stopped until we stop ourselves. Since I have been here, I have not shown ONE sign of weakness. I have not shown ONE chink in my armor. I have been unstoppable, untouchable, and simply unbeatable. Revolver and I have beaten everybody there is to beat one on one, and now we will do so in the tag team division. We became the FASTEST tag team champions in wrestling HISTORY for a reason. We are undeniably bigger, badder, and better than any tag team this great sport has simply ever seen. Revolver and I are going to expose Brooks and Douglas for the phony pretenders that they are. They are nothing but wannabe second-class citizens. The Future will expose their every weakness, their every tactics, and their every motive. We will not only destroy them in the ring, but we will drive them out of this company.
The Future consists of Revolver and I, two All American, world-class wrestlers. We are both main event performers with the talent of gold combined with the hearts of true champions, and yet we STILL, we STILL don’t get any damn respect around here. What more must we do? Do we have to defeat this entire roster by ourselves in a match in order to get respect? Revolver is a former World Heavyweight Champion, but people act like he is nothing more than a mid-carder with no skills. It’s such a joke. I beat Sting, Carnage, Ryan Bensen twice, and am a Tag Team Champion, and yet people boo me and downgrade my accomplishments? Well, that’s fine. I guess in order to gain ANY respect around here, Revolver and I are going to have to FORCE people to give us our deserving kudos at Victory 5. Brooks and Douglas are barking up the wrong tree. They are the ones that are finished at Victory 5. The Future is going to walk down that ramp with no motive other than to beat those two jobber fairies into submission. This is not even about winning the match, folks. That is already a GIVEN for us. Brooks and Douglas are without question not even in our league, wrestling wise. No people…this match is about not only beating these two losers, but punching them out! We are going to knock them out and dig them their graves. Revolver and I are tired of the lack of credit that we get, so now we simply will show absolutely no remorse. We are not only going to start beating up DCW tag teams in our title matches, but we are going to eat this division alive! Our matches will not even be a contest…no…Revolver and I are going to simply DESTROY this entire tag team division until we start gaining the unparallel recognition that we DESERVE.
When I first arrived onto the scene this company, I did something that had never been done before. I challenged DCW’s authority. I challenged every high profile superstar, every staff member, every important person in this company. I came here with a chip on my shoulder and I tore this place up. The DCW felt my wrath and at first they didn’t want to believe me. They didn’t want to believe that my arrival here was their ultimate doom, and that their ultimate fate was in MY hands. Well now, look at DCW? DCW wrestlers are bowing down, on their hands and knees, begging for us, The Revolution, to stop destroying them. The DCW is in a desperate state of affairs. They are scared, rattled, and finished. Team DCW, they are painting this whole War Games Match with a pretty picture. They are telling you, the idiotic fans, that this whole thing is just an illusion and will brush over in time. Team DCW is telling you that The Revolution doesn’t have a chance in hell of overtaking this company. What Team DCW is telling you, is not fact, it is simply a false sense of security that they are trying to deliver to the fans, because they know that the fans are ignorant and ultimately STUPID enough to believe them. The fact is, Team DCW is telling you what you WANT to hear, not what you NEED to hear. They are trying to steer the ship of this company with rosey colored glasses covering their eyes. They don’t want to see what is taking place. Team DCW is in absolute DENIAL with it’s fans, and it is so damn sad to see.
Team DCW KNOWS it is not smooth sailing from here. It is all rocky shores for them from now on. Because you see, from now until Victory 5, we, THE REVOLUTION are here to tell you the fans, the absolute and undeniable truth. We are here to set the message straight, to tell of where this federation REALLY is heading for. This federation is headed towards self-destruction and it’s headed for the Revolution era. Sean Cain, Revolver, Generator, J-Mann, and I are the future of wrestling. We are everything wrestling should be. We have the heart, the guts, the intelligence, the savvy, and the inspiration to RULE this company with an iron fist. Team DCW cannot match us in any way possible. This is a mis-match of EPIC proportions. Team DCW is melting down as we speak, folks. They are in absolute chaos. Team DCW is disorganized, baffled, scared, and desperate. They realize the end is coming. Their Armageddon is almost here, and they know it. They can only hide this truth for so long. Team DCW is showing denial and resistance to The Revolution, but the clock is ticking away on their inevitable destruction. The Revolution is too powerful, too inspired to stop now. We are marching towards Victory 5, marching with destiny on all of our minds. It is our destiny that we walk into Victory 5 with our heads held up high, and it is our destiny that we walk out of Victory 5 as the winners, the victorious superiors in front of the entire wrestling world.
When I came back into this fed, I came back with a famous hit list. I told the world who I was going to take down and why. My job is nearly complete. I have defeated some of my most bitter enemies. I took down Sting and Carnage and stole their belts away from their waists. I took down Ryan Benson in front of the entire nation and proved to the world what a coward he truly was in the face of my presence. Now, here comes the biggest night of my life. This is my biggest test so far, folks. March 28, 2005: Victory 5, the biggest event in wrestling history. There will be two main events. One main event will showcase Sean Cain ripping Ryan Benson’s heart out for the World Title and bringing the gold back to The Revolution. The other main event is equally important. There will be a match unlike any other. This match will showcase the two biggest stables in DCW today. It will showcase the over the hill, washed up, lifeless, has been group of Team DCW, and it will showcase the young, restless, motivated Revolution stable. There will be two stables, two opposite sides fighting for what they believe in. In the end though, justice will prevail. Justice will prevail on the grandest of stages as The Revolution and I stand proudly with our arms raised up into the air, signifying the beginning of our dominating reign.
You see, Team DCW doesn’t want you to hear this, but they really do not stand a chance in hell of beating us. I have come too far, climbed too many mountains, jumped over too many hurdles to let a pack of washed up and bitter old men stop me from my goal. My goal will come true on Sunday. My goal of The Revolution taking over this company and destroying the old reign in front of the entire world on the biggest stage in the biggest event in wrestling history…that goal will come true before my very eyes. I will stand there, in front of millions of fans glued to their television, and I will have my hand raised victoriously. I will stand there with The Revolution and we will stand there in absolute honor as we proclaim the start of a new age in professional wrestling. WE are everything that Team DCW fears. We are the new age, the new blood of professional wrestling, and everything that Team DCW used to be. Team DCW doesn’t have the heart, the skills, the mindset, the toughness, or the inspiration anymore to rule this company. Team DCW is simply a band of aging, battered, and bitter veterans clinging on to one last ride. Well, this will be the last ride of their collective wrestling lives, because the hourglass on their careers comes to an end on Sunday. When the dust settles, Mike Steele, Sting, Cory Hendrickson, and the other washed up fool that they bring to the ring….they will all be at the mercy of The Revolution. We will have them down for the count, both physically and mentally drained, bloodied, and begging for their lives at our feet. It’s our time now, and there is absolutely NOTHING that anybody can do about it anymore.

I really dont know if Aries is lying or not, Ive never met a human lifeform who is such a freak that he makes up an gigantic story with tons of details just for the sake of wetting ninty fanboy dreams, or pissing them off
April 28th, 2005 at 11:45 am
this tread just took another turn for the worse
April 28th, 2005 at 11:45 am
Actually Nintendo was first to market with wireless controller. (both console and pc) and first to create rumble feature. Both were ideas obviously from Nintendo first. The industry followed after.
April 28th, 2005 at 11:45 am
Riiight
That honestly has got to be the single longest post I’ve ever seen anywhere on the web.
April 28th, 2005 at 11:48 am
Im not gonna even both reading that huge post of nothing.
April 28th, 2005 at 11:48 am
Actually, I dont believe aries anymore. I read above and he says the controller with be standard with buttons and a d-pad, but later he says that there is no d-pad.
ITS A HOAX EVRYONE
DONT LISTEN TO ARIES ANYMORE, ITS ALL A HOAX
Im 100%
What a loser Aries is
April 28th, 2005 at 11:49 am
Anyway, we REALLY need the real Aries to summarise all the information that was truly told by himself and not any of those imposters. Thats propably the only way to determine his plausibility (or wait for E3).
April 28th, 2005 at 11:52 am
BTW, what if Brooke = Aries….
Anyone? Maybe this is his ingenious way of covering up everything else he still had to reveal but not risk being sued by Nintendo or whatever they would do. :P;)
April 28th, 2005 at 11:54 am
He isnt plausible
He states early on that the controller WILL BE STANDARD WITH A D-PAD AND BUTTONS
Then, days after he forgot this statement, he says THERE IS NO D-PAD
HE is A FAKE
April 28th, 2005 at 11:56 am
So what if this whole thing is a reference to the movie the game? This is some big prank this on going Aries and Brooke Burgess thing! haha There tricking us someway I dunno…
April 28th, 2005 at 11:57 am
Man, DONT believe anything anymore untill E3, nobody wants another MEGATON right?
April 28th, 2005 at 11:59 am
So now that the real Aries is back and the Booke fellow sounds more like a professional than in is long awaited first post. I have a few questions. about that patent Brooke. It is clearly not a patenet for a 3D projection out into a living space, as it has no picture to show the surrounding areas, patents do have this type of detail in their drawing when they are tring to explain the concept in visual form. So how did you actualy come about the conclusion that Nintnedo would have some sort of projecting device, and how will that be included in the old games? And to Aries, alot of people are hung up on the fact that the Revo controllers would offer heat devices to heat up when your character feels the reaction of the 3D space. Exactly how is this going to be posible wirelessly? That would drain battery life. (unless that was not you that posted that) I hope both of you get to an understanding This is not about fancy tech its about games.

Well he DOES say it features all the buttons and that it might very well feature a D-pad in the near future just like what happened with the DS. Could very well be that he actually meant that the rumour about no D-pad + buttons was false in the sense that it actually DOES feature buttons and might very well feature a D-pad in the final design.
Let’s not jump to radical conclusions just yet.

STAR WARS : EPISODE 1 : THE PHANTOM MENACE
“A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away….”
A vast sea of stars serves as the backdrop for the MAIN TITLE,
followed by a ROLL UP, which crawls up into infinity.
“EPISODE 1 THE PHANTOM MENACE”
“Turmoil has engulfed the Galactic Republic. The taxation of
trade routes to outlaying star systems is in dispute. Hoping
to resolve the matter with a blockade of deadly battleships,
the greedy Trade Federation has stopped all shipping to the
small planet of Naboo.
While the congress of the Republic endlessly debates this
alarming chain of events, the Supreme Chancellor has secretly
dispatched two Jedi Knights, the guardians of peace and
justice in the galaxy, to settle the conflict…..”
PAN DOWN to reveal a small space cruiser heading TOWARD CAMERA
at great speed. PAN with the cruiser as it heads towardthe
beautiful green planet of Naboo, which is surrounded by
hundreds of Trade Federation battleships.
INT. REPUBLIC CRUISER - COCKPIT
In the cockpit of the cruise, the CAPTAIN and PILOT maneuver
closer to one of the battleships.
QUI-GON (O.S.)
Captain.
The Captain turns to an unseen figure sitting behind her.
CAPTAIN
Yes, sir?
QUI-GON (O.S.)
Tell them we wish to board at once.
CAPTAIN
Yes, sir.
The CAPTAIN looks to her view screen, where NUTE GUNRAY, a
Neimoidian trade viceroy, waits for a reply.
CAPTAIN
With all due respect for the Trade
Federation, the Ambassadors for the
Supreme Chancellor wish to board
immediately.
NUTE
Yes, yes, of coarse…ahhh…as you
know, our blockade is perfectly legal,
and we’d be happy to recieve the
Ambassador…Happy to.
The screen goes black. Out the cockpit window, the sinister
battleship looms ever closer.
EXT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - DOCKING BAY - SPACE (FX)
The small space cruiser docks in the enormous main bay of
the Federation battleship.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - DOCKING BAY - SPACE
A PROTOCOL DROID, TC-14, waits at the door to the docking
bay. Two WORKER DROIDS, PK-4 and EG-9 watch.
PK-4
They must be important if the Viceroy
sent one of those useless protocol
gearheads to greet them.
The door opens, and the Republic cruiser can be seen in the
docking bay. Two darkly robed figures are greeted by TC-14.
TC-14
I’m TC-14 at your service. This way,
please.
They move off down the hallway.
EG-9
A Republic cruiser! That’s
trouble…don’t you think?
PK-4
I’m not made to think.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - CONFERENCE ROOM
A door slides open, and the two cloaked shapes are led PAST
CAMERA into the formal conference room by TC-14.
TC-14
I hope you honoured sirs with the
most comfortable here. My master
will be with you shortly.
The droid bows before OBI-WAN KENOBI and QUI- GON JINN. He
backs out the door and it closes. The JEDI lower their hoods
and look out a large window at the lush green planet of Naboo.
QUI-GON sixty years old, has long white hair in a ponytail.
He is tall and striking, with blue eyes. OBI-WAN is twenty
five, with very short brown hair, pale skin, and blue eyes.
Several exotic, bird-like creatures SING in a cage near the
door.

Actually, I dont believe aries anymore. I read above and he says the controller with be standard with buttons and a d-pad, but later he says that there is no d-pad.
ITS A HOAX EVRYONE
DONT LISTEN TO ARIES ANYMORE, ITS ALL A HOAX
Im 100%
What a loser Aries is
This is what happens when you trust someone one-hundred precent.
April 28th, 2005 at 12:03 pm
Well, why cant he say anything about NOA, or give anything to prove all this
April 28th, 2005 at 12:04 pm
OBI-WAN
I have a bad feeling about this.
QUI-GON
I don’t sense anything.
OBI-WAN
It’s not about the mission, Master,
it’s somethging…elsewhere…elusive.
QUI-GON
Don’t center on your anxiety, Obi-
Wan. Keep your concentration here
and now where it belongs.
OBI-WAN
Master Yoda says I should be mindful
of the future…
QUI-GON
…but not at the expense of the
moment. Be mindful of the living
Force, my young Padawan.
OBI-WAN
Yes, Master…how do you think the
trade viceroy will deal with the
chancellor’s demands?
QUI-GON
These Federation types are cowards.
The negotiations will be short.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE
NUTE GUNRAY and DAULTRAY DOFINE stand, stunned, before TC-
14.
NUTE
(shaken)
What?!? What did you say?
TC-14
The Ambassadors are Jedi Knights, I
believe.
DOFINE
I knew it! They were sent to force a
settlement, eh. Blind me, we’re done
for!
NUTE
Stay calm? I’ll wager the Senate
isn’t aware of the Supreme
Chancellor’s moves here. Go. Distract
them until I can contact Lord Sidious.
DOFINE
Are you brain dead? I’m not going in
there with two Jedi! Send the droid.
Dofine turns to TC-14, who lets out a squeaky sigh.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - CONFERENCE ROOM
OBI-WAN
Is it their nature to make us wait
this long?
The door to the conference room slides open, and TC-14 enters
with a tray of drinks and food.
QUI-GON
No. I sense an unusual amount of
fear for something as trivial as
this dispute.
Obi-Wan takes a drink.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE
Nute, Dofine, and Rune Haako are before the hologram of Darth
Sidious, a robed figure whose face is obscured by a hood.
DOFINE
This scheme of yours has failed,
Lord Sidious. The blockade is
finished! We dare not go against
these Jedi.
DARTH SIDIOUS
You seem more worried about the Jedi
than you are of me, Dofine. I am
amused.. Viceroy!
Nute, looking very nervous, steps forward.
NUTE
Yes, My lord.
DARTH SIDIOUS
I don’t want that stunted slime in
my sight again. Do you understand?
NUTE
Yes, My Lord.
Nute gives Dofine a fierce look, and Dofine, terrified, rushed
off the bridge.
DARTH SIDIOUS
This turns of events is unfortunate.
We must accelerate our plans, Viceroy.
Begin landing your troops.
NUTE
Ahh, My Lord, is that, Legal?
DARTH SIDIOUS
I will make it legal.
NUTE
And, the Jedi??
DARTH SIDIOUS
The Chancellor should never have
brought them into this. Kill them,
immediatly.
NUTE
Ye..Yes, My Lord. As you wish.
INT. REPUBLIC CRUISER - COCKPIT - DOCKING BAY
In the Cockpit of the Cruiser, the Captain and Pilot look up
and see a gun turret swing around and point directly at them.
PILOT
Captain !? Look !!
CAPTAIN
No! Warn…
EXT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - HANGER BAY
The battle gun fires. The Republic Cruiser explodes.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - CONFERENCE ROOM
Gui-Gon and Obi-Wan leap up to a standing position with their
light sabers drawn. TC-14 jumps back, startled, spilling the
drinks tray.
TC-14
Ahhh, Sorry, sir. The Viceroy…
Gui-Gon and Obi-Wan turn off their swords and listen intently.
A faint hissing sound can be heard.
GUI-GON
Gas!
Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan each taken a sudden deep breath and
holding it. The exotic bird-like creatures in the cage dorp
dead.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - HALLWAY
A hologram of NUTE , surrounded by BATTLE DROIDS, appears in
the conference room hallway.
NUTE
They must be dead by now. Blast,
what’s left of them.
The hologram fades off, as a BATTLE DROID, OWO-1, cautiously
opens the door. A deadly green cloud billows from the room.
BATTLE DROIDS cock their weapons as a figure stumbles out of
the smoke. It is TC-14 , carrying the tray of drinks.
TC-14
Oh, excuse me, so sorry.
The PROTOCOL DROID passes the armed camp just as two flashing
laser swords fly out of the deadly fog, cutting down several
BATTLE DROIDS before they can fire.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE
The bridge is a cocophony of alarms. NUTE and RUNE watch OWO-
1 on the viewscreen.
OWO-1
Not sure exactly what…
OWO-1 is suddenly cut in half in mid-sentence. RUNE gives
NUTE a worried look.
NUTE
What in blazes is going on down there?
RUNE
Have you ever encountered a Jedi
Knight before, sir?
NUTE
Well, not exactly, but I don’t…
(panicked)
Seal off the bridge.
RUNE
That won’t be enough, sir.
The doors to the bridge SLAM shut.
NUTE
I want destroyer droids up here at
once!!!
RUNE
We will not survive this.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - HALLWAY - OUTSIDE BRIDGE
QUI-GON cuts several BATTLE DROIDS in half, creating a shower
of sparks and metal parts. OBI-WAN raises his hand, sending
several BATTLE DROIDS crashing into the wall.
QUI-GON makes his way to the bridge door and begins to cut
through it.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE
The CREW is very nervous as sparks start flying around the
bridge door.
QUI-GON and OBI-WAN are on the view screen.
NUTE
Close the blast doors!!!
The huge, very thick blast door slams shut, followed by a
second door, then a third. There is a hissing sound as the
huge doors seal shut. QUI-GON tabs the door with his sword.
The screen goes black as a red spot appears in the center of
the blast door.
RUNE
…They’re still coming through!
On the door, chunks of molten metal begin to drop away.
NUTE
Impossible!! This is impossible!!
RUNE
Where are those destroyer droids?!
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - HALLWAY - OUTSIDE BRIDGE
Ten ugly destroyer WHEEL DROIDS roll down the hallway at
full speed. Just before they get to the bridge area, they
stop and transform into their battle configuration. QUI-GON
can’t see them but senses their presence.
QUI-GON
Destroyer droids!
OBI-WAN
Offhand, I’d say this mission is
past the negotiaion stage.
The WHEEL DROIDS, led by P-59, rush the entry area from three
hallways, blasting away with their laser guns. They stop
firing and stand in a semi-circle as the smoke clears. OBI-
WAN and QUI-GON are nowhere to be seen.
P-59
Switch to bio…There they are!
The Jedi materialize at the far end of the hallway and dash
through the doorway that slams shut. The WHEEL DROIDS blast
away at the two JEDI with their laser swords.
OBI-WAN
They have shield generators!
QUI-GON
It’s a standoff! Let’s go!
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE
NUTE and RUNE stand on the bridge, watching the view screen
as the WHEEL
DROIDS’ POV speeds to the doorway.
RUNE
We have them on the run, sir…they’re
no match for destroyer droids.
TEY HOW
Sir, they’ve gone up the ventilation
shaft.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - MAIN BAY
QUI-GON and OBI-WAN appear at a large vent in a giant hanger
bay. They are careful not to be seen. Thousands of BATTLE
DROIDS are loading onto landing craft.
QUI-GON
Battle droids.
OBI-WAN
It’s an invisible army.
QUI-GON
It’s an odd play for the Trade
Federation. We’ve got to warn the
Naboo and contact Chancellor Valorum.
Let’s split up. Stow aboard separate
ships and meet down on the planet.
OBI-WAN
You were right about one thing,
Master. The negotiations were short.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE
TEY HOW recieves a transmission.
TEY HOW
Sir, a transmission from the planet.
RUNE
It’s Queen Amidala herself.
NUTE
At last we’re getting results.
On the view screen, QUEEN AMIDALA appears in her throne room.
Wearing her elaborate headdress and robes, she sits,
surrounded by the GOVERNING COUNCIL and FOUR HANDMAIDENS,
EIRTAE, YANE, RABE, and SACHE.
NUTE
Again you come before me, Your
highness. The Federation is
pleased.
AMIDALA
You will not be pleased when you
hear what I have to say,
Viceroy…Your trade boycott of our
planet has ended.
NUTE smirks at RUNE.
NUTE
I was not aware of such a failure.
AMIDALA
I have word that the Senate is finally
voting on this blockade of yours.
NUTE
I take it you know the outcome. I
wonder why they bother to vote.
AMIDALA
Enough of this pretense, Viceroy!
I’m aware the Chancellor’s Ambassadors
are with you now, and that you have
beencommanded to reach a settlement.
NUTE
I know nothing about any
Ambassadors…you must be mistaken.
AMIDALA, surprised at his reaction, studies him carefully.
AMIDALA
Beware, Viceroy….the Federation is
going too far this time.
NUTE
Your Highness, we would never do
anything without the approval of the
Senate. You assume too much.
AMIDALA
We will see.
The QUEEN fades off, and the view screen goes black.
RUNE
She’s right, the Senate will never….
NUTE
It’s too late now.
RUNE
Do you think she suspects an attack?
NUTE
I don’t know, but we must move quickly
to disrupt all communications down
there.
INT. NABOO PALACE - THRONE ROOM
The QUEEN, EIRTAE, SACHE and her Governor, SIO BIBBLE, stand
before a hologram of SENATOR PALPATINE, a thin, kindly man.
PALPATINE
…How could that be true? I have
assurances from the Chancellor…his
Ambassaodrs did arrive. It must be
the…get…negotiate…
The hologram of PALPATIONE sputters and fades away.
AMIDALA
Senator Palpatine?!?
(turns to Panaka)
What’s happening?
Capt. Panaka turns to his SARGEANT.
CAPT. PANAKA
Check the transmission generators…
BIBBLE
A malfunction?
CAPT. PANAKA
It could be the Federation jamming
us. Your Highness.
BIBBLE
A communications disruption can only
mean one thing. Invasion.
AMIDALA
Don’t jump to conclusions, Governor.
The Federation would not dare go
that far.
CAPT. PANAKA
The Senate would revoke their trade
franchise, and they’d be finished.
AMIDALA
We must continue to rely on
negotiation.
BIBBLE
Negotiation? We’ve lost all
communications!…and where atre the
Chancellors Ambassadors? How can we
negotiate? We must prepare to defend
ourselves.
CAPT. PANAKA
This is a dangerous situation, Your
Highness. Our security volunteers
will be no match against a battle-
hardened Federation army.
AMIDALA
I will not condone a course of action
that will lead us to war.
EXT. SPACE LANDING CRAFT - TWILIGHT (FX)
Six landing craft fly in formation toward the surface of the
planet Naboo.
EXT. NABOO SWAMP - SHALLOW LAKE - TWILIGHT
Three landing craft slowly descend through the cloud cover
of the perpetually gray twilight side of the planet. One by
one, the Federation warships land in the eerie swamp. OBI-
WAN’s head emerges from the mud of a shallow lake. For in
the background, the activities of the invasion force can be
seen in the mist.
OBI-WAN takes several deep breaths, then dissapears again
under the muddy swamp. Troop Transports (MTT’s) emerge from
the landing craft.
EXT. NABOO EDGE OF SWAMP / GRASS PLAINS - TWILIGHT (FX)
The droid invasion force moves out of the swamp and onto a
grassy plain.
OOM-9, in his tank, looks out over the vast ARMY marching
across the rolling hills. A small hologram of RUNE and NUTE
stands on the tank.
RUNE
…and there is no trace of the Jedi.
They may have gotton onto one of
your landing craft.
OOM-9
If they are down here, sir, we’ll
find them. We are moving out of the
swamp and are marching on the cities.
We are meeting no resistance.
NUTE
Excellent.
EXT. NABOO SWAMP - TWILIGHT
QUI-GON runs through the strange landscape, glancing back to
see the monstrous troop transports, emerging from the mist.
Animals begin to run past him in a panic.
An odd, frog-like Gungan, JAR JAR INKS, squats holding a
clam he has retrieved from the murky swamp. The shell pops
open. JAR JAR’s greta tongue snaps out and grabs the clam,
swallowing it in one gulp.
JAR JAR looks up and sees QUI-GON and the other creatures
running like the wind toward him. One of the huge MTT’s bears
down on the JEDI like a charging locomotive. JAR JAR stands
transfixed, still holding the clam shell in one hand.
JAR JAR
Oh, noooooooooo!
JAR JAR drops the shell and grabs onto QUI-GON as he passes.
The JEDI is caught by surprise.
JAR JAR
Hey, help me! Help me!!
QUI-GON
Let go!
The machine is about tp crush them as QUI-GON drags JAR JAR
behind him. Just as the transport is about to hit them, QUI-
GON drops, and JAR JAR goes splat into the mud with him. The
transport races overhead.
QUI-GON and JAR JAR pull themselves out of the mud. They
stand watching the war machine dissapear into the mist. JAR
JAR grabs QUI-GON and hugs him.
JAR JAR
Oyi, mooie-mooie! I luv yous!
The frog-like creature kisses the JEDI.
QUI-GON
Are you brainless? You almost got us
killed!
JAR JAR
I spake.
QUI-GON
The ability to speak does not make
you intelligent. Now get outta here!
QUI-GON starts to move off, and JAR JAR follows.
JAR JAR
No…no! Mesa stay…Mesa yous humble
servaunt.
QUI-GON
That wont be necessary.
JAR JAR
Oh boot tis! Tis demunded byda guds.
Tis a live debett, tis. Mesa culled
Jaja Binkss.
In the distance, two STAPS burst out of the mist at high
speed, chasing OBI-WAN.
QUI-GON
I have no time for this now…
JAR JAR
Say what?
The two STAPS barrell down on OBI-WAN.
JAR JAR
Oh, nooooo! Weesa ganna….
QUI-GON throws JAR JAR into the mud.
QUI-GON
Stay down!
His head pops up.
JAR JAR
…dieeee!
The two troops fire laser bolts at OBI-WAN. QUI-GON deflects
the bolts back, and the STAPS blow up. One-two. OBI-WAN is
exhausted and tries to catch his breath.
OBI-WAN
Sorry, Master, the water fried my
weapon.
OBI-WAN pulls out his burnt laser sword handle. QUI-GON
inspects it, as JAR JAR pulls himself out of the mud.
QUI-GON
You forgot to turn your power off
again, didn’t you?
OBI-WAN nods sheeplishly.
QUI-GON
It won’t take long to recharge, but
this is a lesson I hope you’ve
learned, my young Padawan.
OBI-WAN
Yes, Master.
JAR JAR
Yousa sav-ed my again, hey?
OBI-WAN
What’s this?
QUI-GON
A local. Let’s go, before more of
those droids show up.
JAR JAR
Mure? Mure did you spake??!?
OBI-WAN and QUI-GON start to run. JAR JAR tries to keep up.
JAR JAR
Ex-squeeze me, but da moto grande
safe place would be Otoh Gunga. Tis
where I grew up…Tis safe city.
They all stop.
QUI-GON
A city!
(JAR JAR nods his
head)
Can you take us there?
JAR JAR
Ahhh, will…on second taut…no,
not willy.
QUI-GON
No??!
JAR JAR
Iss embarrissing, boot… My afrai
my’ve bean banished. My forgoten der
Bosses would do terrible tings to
my. Terrible tings if my goen back
dare.
A PULSATING SOUND is heard in the distance.
QUI-GON
You hear that?
JAR JAR shakes his head yes.
QUI-GON
That’s the sound of a thousand
terrible things heading this way…
OBI-WAN
When they find us, they will crush
us, grind us into little pieces,
then blast us into oblivion!
JAR JAR
Oh! Yousa point is well seen. Dis
way! Hurry!
JAR JAR turns and runs into the swamp.
EXT. NABOO SWAMP LAKE - TWILIGHT
QUI-GON, OBI-WAN and JAR JAR run into a murky lake and stop
as JAR JAR tries to catch his breath. The TRANSPORTS ARE
HEARD in the distance.
QUI-GON
Much farther?
JAR JAR
Wesa goen underwater, okeyday?
QUI-GON and OBI-WAN pull out small capsule from their utility
belts that turn into breathing masks.
JAR JAR
My warning yous. Gungans no liken
outlaunders. Don’t expict a wern
welcome.
OBI-WAN
Don’t worry, this has not been our
day for warm welcomes.
JAR JAR jumps, does a double somersault with a twist, and
dives into the water.
Breath masks on, QUI-GON and OBI-WAN wade in after him.
EXT. NABOO LAKE - UNDERWATER
QUI-GON and OBI-WAN swim behind JAR JAR, who is very much at
home in the water. Down they swim into murky depths. In the
distance the glow of Otoh Gunga, an underwater city made up
of large bubbles, becomes more distinct.
They approach the strange, art nouveau habitat. JAR JAR swims
magically through one of the bubble membranes, which seals
behind him. OBI-WAN and QUI-GON follow.
INT. OTOH GUNGA - CITY SQUARE
GUNGANS in the square scatter when they see the strange JEDI.
Four GUARDS armed with long electro-poles ride two-legged
KAADUS into the square. The GUARDS, led by CAPTAIN TARPALS,
point their lethal poles at the dripping trio.
JAR JAR
Heyo-dalee, Cap’n Tarpals, Mesa back!
CAPT. TARPALS
Noah gain, Jar Jar. Yousa goen tada
Bosses. Yousa in big dudu this time.
CAPT. TARPALS gives JAR JAR a slight zap with his power pole.
JAR JAR jumps and moves off, followed by the two JEDI.
JAR JAR
How wude.
INT. OTOH GUNGA - HIGH TOWER BOARD ROOM
The Bosses’ Board Room has bubble walls, with small lighted
fish swimming around outside like moving stars. A long
circular judge’s bench filled with GUNGAN OFFICIALS dominates
the room. OBI-WAN and QUI-GON stand facing BOSS NASS, who
sits on a bench higher than the others.
BOSS NASS
Yousa cannot bees hair. Dis army of
mackineeks up dare tis new weesong!
QUI-GON
That droid army is about to attack
the Naboo. We must warn them.
BOSS NASS
Wesa no like da Naboo! Un dey no

smarty den us-ens. Day tink day brains

OBI-WAN
After those droids take control of
the surface, they will come here and
take control of you.
BOSS NASS
No, mesa no tink so. Mesa scant talkie
witda Naboo, and no nutten talkie it

OBI-WAN
You and the Naboo form a symbiont
circle. What happens to noe of you
will affect the other. You must
understand this.
BOSS NASS
Wesa wish no nutten in yousa tings,
outlaunder, and wesa no care-n about

QUI-GON
(waves his hand)
Then speed us on our way.
BOSS NASS

QUI-GON
We need a transport.
BOSS NASS
Wesa give yousa una bongo. Da speedest

QUI-GON
Thank you for your help. We go in
peace.
QUI-GON and OBI-WAN turn to leave.
OBI-WAN
Master, whats a bongo?
QUI-GON
A transport, I hope.
The JEDI notice JAR JAR in chains to one side, waiting to
hear his verdict.
QUI-GON stops. JAR JAR gives him a forlorn look.
JAR JAR
Daza setten yous up. Goen through da
planet core is bad bombin!!
QUI-GON
Thank you, my friend.
JAR JAR
Ahhh…any hep hair would be hot.
JAR JAR’s soulful look is counterpointed by a sheepish grin.
OBI-WAN
We are short of time, Master.
QUI-GON
We’ll need a navigator to get us
through the planet’s core. This Gungan
my be of help.
QUI-GON walks bact to BOSS NASS.
QUI-GON
What is to become of Jar Jar Binks
here?
BOSS NASS
Binkss brokeen the nocombackie law.
Hisen to be pune-ished.
QUI-GON
He has been a great help to us. I
hope the punishment will not be too
severe.
BOSS NASS
Pounded unto death.
JAR JAR
(grimacing)
Oooooh…Ouch!
OBI-WAN looks concerned. QUI-GON is thinking.
QUI-GON
We need a navigator to get us through
the planet’s core. I have saved Jar
Jar Binks’ life. He owes me what you
call a “life debt.”
BOSS NASS
Binks. Yousa havena liveplay with

JAR JAR nods and joins the JEDI. QUI-GON waves his hand.
QUI-GON
Your gods demand that his life belongs
to me now.
BOSS NASS
Hisen live tis yos, outlauder. Begone
wit him.
JAR JAR
Count mesa outta dis! Better dead

EXT. NABOO CITY - UNDERWATER - SUB (FX)
A strange little submarine propels itself away from the Otoh
Gunga, leaving the glow of the settlement in the distance.
INT. SUB COCKPIT - UNDERWATER
OBI-WAN in the co-pilots seat, JAR JAR guides the craft.
JAR JAR
Dis is nusen.
OBI-WAN
Master, why do you keep dragging
these pathetic life forms along with
us?…Here, take over.
JAR JAR
Hey, ho? Where wesa goen??
QUI-GON
You’re the navigator.
JAR JAR
Yo dreamen mesa hopen…
QUI-GON
Just relax, the Force will guide
us…
JAR JAR
Ooooh, maxibig…”da Force”…Wellen,
dat smells stinkowiff.
JAR JAR veers the craft to the left and turns the lights on.
The coral vistas are grand, fantastic, and wonderous.
OBI-WAN
Why were you banished, Jar Jar?
JAR JAR
Tis a long tale, buta small part
wawdabe mesa… ooooh… aaaa…
clumsy.
OBI-WAN
They banished you because you’re
clumsy?
As the little sub glides into the planet core, a large dark
shape begins to follow.
JAR JAR
Mesa cause-ed mabee one or duey lettal
bitty axadentes…yud-say boom da
gasser, un crash Der Bosses
heyblibber…den banished.
Suddenly there is a loud CRASH, and the little craft lurches
to one side.
QUI-GON looks around and sees a huge, lumimnous OPEE SEA
KILLER has hooked them with its long gooey tongue.
QUI-GON
Full speed ahead.
Instead of full ahead, JAR JAR jams the controls into reverse.
The sub flies into the mouth of the creature.
JAR JAR
Oooops.
OBI-WAN
Give me the controls.
OBI-WAN takes over the controls and the OPEE SEA KILLER
instantly releases the sub from its mouth.
JAR JAR
Wesa free!
As the sub zooms away they see a larger set of jaws, munching
on the hapless KILLER. The jaws belong to the incredible
SANDO AQUA MONSTER. The lights on the tiny sub begin to
flicker as they cruise deeper into the gloom.
QUI-GON
There’s always a bigger fish.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE
NUTE and RUNE stand before a hologram of DARTH SIDIOUS.
NUTE
The invasion is on schedule, My Lord.
DARTH SIDIOUS
Good. I have the Senate bogged down
in procedures. By the time this
incident comes up for a vote, they
will have no choice but to accept
your control of the system.
NUTE
The Queen has great faith the Senate
will side with her.
DARTH SIDIOUS
Queen Amidala is yound and naive.
You will find controlling her will
not be difficult. You have done well,
Viceroy.
NUTE
Thank you, My Lord.
DARTH SIDIOUS fades away.
RUNE
You didn’t tell him about the missing
Jedi?
NUTE
No need to report that to him, until
we have something to report.
INT. SUB COCKPIT - UNDERWATER
Sparks are flying, and water is leaking into the cabin. The
sound of the power drive drops.
OBI-WAN
…we’re losing power.
OBI-WAN is working with the sparking wires. JAR JAR panics.
QUI-GON
Stay calm. We’re not in trouble yet.
JAR JAR
What yet? Monstairs out dare! Leak’n
in here, all’n sink’n, and nooooo
power! You nutsen! WHEN YOUSA TINK
WESA IN TROUBLE?!!!?
OBI-WAN
Power’s back.
The lights flicker on, revealing an ugly COLO CLAW FISH right
in front of them.
JAR JAR
Monstairs back!
The large COLO CLAW FISH is surprised and rears back. The
sub turns around and speeds away.
JAR JAR
Wesa in trouble now??
QUI-GON
Relax.
QUI-GON puts his hand on JAR JAR’s shoulder. JAR JAR relaxes
into a coma.
OBI-WAN
You overdid it.
The COLO CLAW FISH leaps after the fleeing sub as it shoots
out of the tunnel and into the waiting jaws of the SANDO
AQUA MONSTER.
OBI-WAN
This is not good!
JAR JAR regains consciousness.
JAR JAR
Wesa dead yet?? Oie Boie!
JAR JAR’s eyes bulge, and he faints again. The sub narrowly
avoids the deadly teeth of the AQUA MONSTER. The COLO CLAW
FISH chasing them isn’t so lucky. It is munched in half by
the larger predator. The little sub slips away.
QUI-GON
Head for that outcropping.
EXT. THEED - MAIN ROAD INTO THEED - DAY (FX)
The long columns of the DROID ARMY move down the main road
leading to Theed, the Naboo capital.

As the QUEEN watches helplessly from a window in the palace,
a transport carrying NUTE and RUNE lands in Theed Plaza.
They exit the transport.
NUTE
Ah, victory!
INT. NABOO LAKE - UNDERWATER - SUB (FX)
The little sub continue to propel itself toward the surface,
which is brightly lit.
JAR JAR
Wesa dude it!
EXT. THEED - ESTUARY - DAY
Paradise. Billowing clouds frame a romantic body of water.
There is a LOUD RUSH OF BUBBLES, and a small sub bobs to the
surface.
The current in the estuary begins to pull the sub backward
into a fast moving river. OBI-WAN switches off the two
remaining bubble canopies.
QUI-GON stands up to look around. JAR JAR lets out a sigh of
relief.
JAR JAR
Wesa safe now.
QUI-GON
Get this thing started.
JAR JAR
Dissen berry good. Hey?
OBI-WAN
What is it?
JAR JAR looks back to where they’re drifting. He sees they
are headed for a huge waterfall.
JAR JAR
What!!?? Oie boie!
OBI-WAN tries to start the engine. The long props behind the
sub slowly begin to rotate. OBI-WAN struggles until finally,
a few feet short of the waterfall, the sub starts and is
able to generate enough power to stop drifting backward in
the powerful current. The sub slowly moves forward. In the
background, QUI-GON takes a cable out of his belt. The engine
coughs and dies. They start drifting backward again. JAR JAR
panics.
JAR JAR
Iyiiyi, wesa die’n here, hey!
QUI-GON shoots the thin cable, and it wraps itself around a
railing on the shore. The sub pulls the cable taut, and the
little craft hangs precariously over the edge of the
waterfall.
QUI-GON
Come on…
OBI-WAN climbs out of the sub and pulls himself along the
cable. QUI-GON starts in after him.
QUI-GON
Come on, Jar Jar.
JAR JAR
No! Too scary!
OBI-WAN
Get up here!
JAR JAR
No a mighty no!
JAR JAR looks back and sees he is hanging over the waterfall.
JAR JAR
Oie boie…mesa comen. Mesa comen!
April 28th, 2005 at 12:04 pm
Maybe he can, but we’re all too impatient for him to actually post something. It’s not like he’s around on this blog all day right? RIGHT?! Or is he…?
April 28th, 2005 at 12:06 pm
OBI-WAN looks concerned. QUI-GON is thinking.
QUI-GON
We need a navigator to get us through
the planet’s core. I have saved Jar
Jar Binks’ life. He owes me what you
call a “life debt.”
BOSS NASS
Binks. Yousa havena liveplay with

JAR JAR nods and joins the JEDI. QUI-GON waves his hand.
QUI-GON
Your gods demand that his life belongs
to me now.

EXT. NABOO CITY - UNDERWATER - SUB (FX)
A strange little submarine propels itself away from the Otoh
Gunga, leaving the glow of the settlement in the distance.
INT. SUB COCKPIT - UNDERWATER
OBI-WAN in the co-pilots seat, JAR JAR guides the craft.
JAR JAR
Dis is nusen.
OBI-WAN
Master, why do you keep dragging
these pathetic life forms along with

JAR JAR
Hey, ho? Where wesa goen??
QUI-GON
You’re the navigator.
JAR JAR

QUI-GON
Just relax, the Force will guide

JAR JAR
Ooooh, maxibig…”da Force”…Wellen,

JAR JAR veers the craft to the left and turns the lights on.
The coral vistas are grand, fantastic, and wonderous.
OBI-WAN
Why were you banished, Jar Jar?
JAR JAR
Tis a long tale, buta small part
wawdabe mesa… ooooh… aaaa…

OBI-WAN
They banished you because you’re
clumsy?
As the little sub glides into the planet core, a large dark
shape begins to follow.
JAR JAR
Mesa cause-ed mabee one or duey lettal

Suddenly there is a loud CRASH, and the little craft lurches
to one side.
QUI-GON looks around and sees a huge, lumimnous OPEE SEA
KILLER has hooked them with its long gooey tongue.
QUI-GON
Full speed ahead.
Instead of full ahead, JAR JAR jams the controls into reverse.
The sub flies into the mouth of the creature.
JAR JAR
Oooops.
OBI-WAN
Give me the controls.
OBI-WAN takes over the controls and the OPEE SEA KILLER
instantly releases the sub from its mouth.
JAR JAR
Wesa free!
As the sub zooms away they see a larger set of jaws, munching
on the hapless KILLER. The jaws belong to the incredible
SANDO AQUA MONSTER. The lights on the tiny sub begin to
flicker as they cruise deeper into the gloom.
QUI-GON
There’s always a bigger fish.
INT. FEDERATION BATTLESHIP - BRIDGE
NUTE and RUNE stand before a hologram of DARTH SIDIOUS.
NUTE
The invasion is on schedule, My Lord.
DARTH SIDIOUS
Good. I have the Senate bogged down
in procedures. By the time this
incident comes up for a vote, they
will have no choice but to accept
your control of the system.
NUTE
The Queen has great faith the Senate
will side with her.
DARTH SIDIOUS
Queen Amidala is yound and naive.
You will find controlling her will
not be difficult. You have done well,
Viceroy.
NUTE
Thank you, My Lord.
DARTH SIDIOUS fades away.
RUNE
You didn’t tell him about the missing

NUTE
No need to report that to him, until

EXT. THEED - PALACE - DAY
The waterfalls of Theed sparkle in the noonday sun.
INT. THEED - PALACE THRONE ROOM - DAY
QUEEN AMIDALA, SIO BIBBLE, and FIVE OF HER HANDMAIDENS
(EIRTAE, YANE, PADME, RABE, SACHE) are surrounded by TWENTY
DROIDS. Capt. Panaka and FOUR NABOO GUARDS are also held at
gunpoint. NUTE and RUNE stand in the middle of the room.
BIBBLE
…how will you explain this invasion
to the Senate?
NUTE
The Naboo and the Federation will
forge a treaty that will legitimize
our occupation here. I’ve been assured
it will be ratified by the Senate.
AMIDALA
I will not co-operate.
NUTE
Now, now, your Highness. You are not
going to like what we have in store
for your people. In time, their
suffering will persuade you to see
our point of view. Commander.
(OOM-9 steps forward)
Process them.
OOM-9
Yes, sir!
(turns to his sergeant)
Take them to Camp Four.
The SERGEANT marches the GROUP out of the throne room.
EXT. PALACE - PLAZA - DAY
QUEEN AMIDALA, PADME, EIRTA, YANE, RABE, SACHE, Capt. Panaka,
SIO BIBBLE,
and FOUR GUARDS are led out of the palace by ten BATTLE
DROIDS. The plaza is filled with tanks and BATTLE DROIDS,
which they pass on their way to the detention camp.
Unbeknownst to them, QUI-GON, OBI-WAN, and JAR JAR sneak
across on a walkway above the plaza and jump from a balcony
to begin an attack to rescue the QUEEN.
FOUR BATTLE DROIDS are instantly cut down. MORE DROIDS move
forward and are also cut down by the JEDIS’ flashing
lightsabres until there is only the DROID SERGEANT left. The
SERGEANT starts to run but is pulled back to QUI-GON by the
Force, until finally he is dispatched by the JEDI.
JAR JAR
Yousa guys bombad!
QUEEN AMIDALA and the OTHERS are amazed. JAR JAR is getting
used to this. They move between two buildings.
QUI-GON
Your Highness, we are the Ambassadors,
for the Supreme Chancellor.
BIBBLE
Your negotiations seem to have failed,
Ambassador.
QUI-GON
The negotiations never took place.
Your Highness, we must make contact
with the republic.
Capt. Panaka steps forward.
CAPT. PANAKA
They’ve knocked out all our
communications.
QUI-GON
Do you have transports?
CAPT. PANAKA
In the main hanger. This way.
THEY disappear down an alleyway as the ALARMS are sounded
INT. CENTRAL HANGER - HALLWAY - DAY
Capt. Panaka cracks open a side door to the central hanger.
QUI-GON looks in over his shoulder. OBI-WAN, JAR JAR, and
the rest of the group are behind him. They see several Naboo
spacecraft guarded by about FIFTY BATTLE DROIDS. ALARMS can
be heard in the distance.
CAPT. PANAKA
There are too many of them.
QUI-GON
That won’t be a problem.
(to Amidala)
Your Highness, under the
circumstances, Isuggest you come to
Coruscant with us.
AMIDALA
Thank you, Ambassador, but my place
is here with my people.
QUI-GON
They will kill you if you stay.
BIBBLE
They wouldn’t dare.
CAPT. PANAKA
They need her to sign a treaty to
make this invasion of theirs legal.
They can’t afford to kill her.
QUI-GON
The situation here is not what it
seems. There is something else behind
all this, Your Highness. There is no
logic in the Federation’s move here.
My feelings tell me they will destroy
you.
BIBBLE
Please, Your Highness, reconsider.
Our only hope is for the Senate to
side with us… Senator Palpatine
will need your help.
CAPT. PANAKA
Getting past their blockade is
impossible, Your Highness.
Any attempt to escape will be
dangerous.
BIBBLE
Your Highness, I will stay here and
do what I can…They will have to
retain the Council of Governors in
order to maintain control. But you
must leave…
The QUEEN turns to PADME and EIRTAE.
AMIDALA
Either choice presents a great
risk…to all of us…
PADME
We are brave, Your Highness.
QUI-GON
If you are to leave, Your Highness,
it must be now.
AMIDALA
Then, I will plead our case before
the Senate.
(to Bibble)
Be careful, Governor.
INT. CENTRAL HANGER - DAY
The door opens to the main hanger. QUI-GON, OBI-WAN, JAR
JAR, Capt. Panaka, TWO GUARDS, and THREE HANDMAIDENS (PADME,
EIRTAE, RABE), followed by QUEEN AMIDALA, head for a sleek
chrome spacecraft. SIO BIBBLE, YANE and SACHE stay behind.
The HANDMAIDENS begin to cry.
CAPT. PANAKA
We need to free those pilots.
Capt. Panaka points to TWENTY GUARDS, GROUND CREW, and PILOTS
held in a corner by SIX BATTLE DROIDS.
OBI-WAN
I’ll take care of that.
OBI-WAN heads toward the group of captured pilots.
QUI-GON and the QUEEN, Capt. Panaka, JAR JAR, and the rest
Of the GROUP approach the GUARDS at the ramp of the Naboo
craft.
GUARD DROID
Where are you going?
QUI-GON
I’m Ambassador for the Supreme
Chancellor, and I’m taking those
people to Coruscant.
DROID GUARD
You’re under arrest!
The DROID GUARD draws his weapon, but before any of the DROIDS
can fire, they are cut down. OTHER GUARDS run to their aid.
OBI-WAN attacks the GUARDS around the PILOTS. QUI-GON stands,
fighting off DROIDS as the OTHERS rush on board the
spacecraft. OBI-WAN, the FREED PILOTS (including RIC OLIE),
GUARDS and GROUND CREW MEMBERS rush on board the ship. The
OTHER PILOTS and GUARDS race to SIO BIBBLR. After everyone
has made it onto the ship, QUI-GONjumps on board. ALARMS
sound. MORE DROIDS rush into the hanger and fire as the ship
takes off.
EXT. THEED - HANGER ENTRY - DAY (FX)
The ship exits the hanger. BATTLE DROIDS standing in the
hanger shoot at them.
EXT. SPACE (FX)
The sleek spacecraft speeds away from the planet of Naboo
and heads for the deadly Federation blockade.
INT. NABOO SPACECRAFT - COCKPIT
The PILOT, RIC OLIE, navigates toward the massive battleship,
QUI-GON and Capt. Panaka watch.
RIC OLIE
…our communications are still
jammed.
INT. NABOO SPACECRAFT - DROID HOLD
JAR JAR is led into a low, cramped doorway by OBI-WAN.
OBI-WAN
Now stay here, and keep out of
trouble.
OBI-WAN closes the door. JAR JAR looks around and sees a
long row of five short, dome-topped ASTRO DROIDS (R-2 units).
The all look alike, except for thier paint color, and they
all seem to be shut down.
JAR JAR
Ello, boyos.
(no response)
Disa wanna longo trip…hey?
JAR JAR taps a bright red R-2 UNIT on the head, and its head
pops up a bit. He lets out a gasp as he lifts the head.
JAR JAR
Tis opens?…Oooops!
Many springs and things come flying out.
JAR JAR quickly closes it again, very embarrassed.
JAR JAR
Yoi! Just yoken!
EXT. SPACE BATTLE
The Naboo Spacecraft, surrounded by explosions, head even
closer to the massive Federation battle ships.
INT.NABOO SPACECRAFT - COCKPIT
RIC OLIE
There’s the blockade, hang on.
Alarm sounds fill the Cockpit as Obi-Wan enters.
RIC OLIE
The shield generator’s been hit. Our
deflector shields can’t withstand
this. Power down… Hopefully the
repair droids can fix it.
INT. NABOO SPACECRAFT - DROID HOLD
The lights go on, and all the Droids are activated. Droids
rush to an exterior air lock, except for the red one, who
runs into a wall. JAR JAR holds on for dear life.

OK Aeris, since this thing is just going to continue, how about giving us the other 4 games for the Revolution coming. You already said Waverace, SSB, and a Retro FPS.
April 28th, 2005 at 1:00 pm
I weep for humanity seeing where such an innocent discourse can go wrong. I came here to here speculation about a videogame console and found such casually hateful comments. As a resident of one of the most segregated cities today, I am turned off by the dregs of society who can throw racist bullshit around without second thought. I am now for the first time seriously afraid of people who play videogames, and by extension the violent videogames that they play with their twisted values.

I think we’ve heard enough from Aries. All you people seem to want to do is cause chaos or beg for more after more than expected was received yet never are content. Just shut up and wait for E3.
April 28th, 2005 at 1:07 pm
I don’t believe a word of any of this. The only plausible info is what IGNCube posted on their site and still, it’s just speculation.
April 28th, 2005 at 1:11 pm
Another game for revolution…it’s begin by F and finish by 6…
Remaked in 3D.
April 28th, 2005 at 1:11 pm
IGN cube is the worse source for anything. I’m sorry. They maybe one of many big sites but to my opinion they are the least trustworthy.
April 28th, 2005 at 1:13 pm
Well, it seems most people here do not believe me anymore. But as I stated before, I will be proven true come E3. I know that this is a bold statement, but one I can make since I’m absolutely convinced of the info I provided. I noticed someone asking for a description of the NOA building? Well, I could go even further and give you a description of the HQ of Nintendo of Japan which I visited a couple of times while I was still working for NOA. But would that make you feel better? Not actually knowing yourself what the building looks like? For all you know, I could simply make something up just to give you the false impression that I am 100% plausible. I really don’t see any worth in such a description to be honest.
Anyway, to clear some other things up: the final design for the Revolution hasn’t been decided upon yet. At least, not as far as we know over here. So this could mean that they’ll actually show some prototype of the final design at E3, just like they did with the DS last year. Of course we have an SDK, but that machine probably wont look like the final design either. Just like with the current SDK’s for the Xbox 360.
As for specs, since you seem to be really privy on them, the Revolution will indeed support both 720p as well as 1080i. The GPU of the console packs quite a punch. It’s actually two cores linked together with ATi’s alternative on nVidia’s SLI. Though no releasedate has probably been determined yet by Nintendo (current releasedate looks to be around March next year in Japan), this could mean that Revolution will be the first device to support this ATi technology. Even before they introduce it to the PC market.
Now the cores themselves are completely custom-made by a different team than the core for the Xbox 360. It’s known as the RN520, where the N actually stands for Nintendo. One core in itself, isn’t as fast as the R500-ish core of the Xbox 360, but together they are quite a bit more powerful. The CPU consists of four cores each running at 2,5 GHz and is based on the G5 architecture. Each core has it’s own 128KB L1 cachememory, and they all share a L2 cache of 512KB. Next to this, the CPU and GPU share 512MB of memory, just like the Xbox 360 does. Also, the GPU has it’s own on-die memory for quick tasks which amounts to 16MB of eDRAM.
There’s also a seperate processor for sound, which is quite advanced and takes a lot of workload off the CPU. Last but not least, the Revolution features a PPU for complex physics, which utilizes it’s own 32MB of memory. So all in all, it’s quite the complex machine with many different processors. Still, it’s rather easy to develop for because of the excellent development tools which Nintendo delivered. These are all GameCube based with a lot of completely new features built-in.
April 28th, 2005 at 1:17 pm
Seriously, what do you get out of this? Only retards with nothing to do in their lives go onto internet boards and spam.
April 28th, 2005 at 1:22 pm
Omg Aries, if those specs are 4real, Im seriously going crazy right now. WTF those are crazy specs man, this Revo is the return of Nintendo, THAT is the revolution, the return of Nintendo!
April 28th, 2005 at 1:23 pm
Again, this wasn´t the real Aries!
April 28th, 2005 at 1:23 pm

quick 2 questions.. any idea what media revolution will be using? and is the game your developing going to support widescreen?
April 28th, 2005 at 1:29 pm
Some about the NRev having its’ own PPU sounds fishy.
April 28th, 2005 at 1:32 pm
Well, those are some nice specs you posted, of course, i don’t believe you but those are still nice specs, also, why would Revolution’s chip architecture be based on the G5, those chips are pretty big, are they using a different fabrication process, man, that’s gonna be one expensive chip or chips. Also, ATi’s new core connection bus interface is called AMR, how can you not know that? Talking about a 4 CPU and a 2 core GPU, games are gonna be a pain in the ass to program for, what is Nintendo doing about this, what type of tools have they given to you as a developer? I think you’re a freak for taking time to hoax up all this BS but anyway, answer my questions please.

Don’t be tearing up the African American culture.
Do you realize how long us white folks made blacks pick cotton all day?
It’s the Mexicans that are the real problem. There are barely any real Mexicans in the gaming industry. They contribute nothing.
Then again it’s good they dont. Mexicans would make lawn mower games or something. Spics. ”
Screw what you just said, AT LEAST Mexican’s do TWO things that niggers don’t, they work hard and they take baths.

personally ide be able to tell you if your exterior descr. of noa is correct since i lived in bellevue/redmond for a short period of time only 3-4 miles from noa and i travelled to the building daily for school
April 28th, 2005 at 1:35 pm
There’s no way Nintendo could include all of that hardware and still keep it a lower price than the PS3 and X360. They’ll have a hard enough time keeping it under $500 if any of that was true.

To continue on with the summary of what was actually posted by myself and should be considered plausible:
- the controllers are pressure sensitive
- the controllers feature gyroscopes
- the controllers will not feature any form of touch control
- the controllers are going to be wireless
- the controllers contain regular action buttons and triggers, though a D-pad is not certain yet
- the Revolution features very advanced voice recognition technology
- the Revolution will be more powerful than the Xbox 360
- the Revolution will feature a very advanced online service. Probably the best and most interesting of the three
- the Revolution wont support any form of stereoscopic imaging. At least not out of the box
- Square-Enix is developing an exclusive game for Revolution, further details are currently unkown
- Retro is working on a non-Metroid based FPS for the console’s launch which will be very mature themed
- Hal Labs is developing a brand new Smash Bros game, which will be available around launch as well
- A new Mario game is in the works which will show off all the console’s features right from launch
- NST is busy developing a new Wave Race game. It seems that it features the most lifelike water ever seen both graphically and physically and comes really close to real life
- Some completely new franchises are still at the works at Nintendo which will be featured on DS as well. Most of them are more mature-themed than we are used to with Nintendo
- Capcom, Namco, EA, Activision, Midway, Konami, Majesco and most probably some other companies, are currently developing Revolution software and seem to be quite enthusiastic about the machine

Heh, that was funny….
So yeah, those last two Aries posts were actually made up by me (the hardware one and the summary), just to see how easy it would be for someone to make things up and let other people believe everything he says. Obviously, it failed miserably now that no-one believes in the whole Aries myth anymore anyway.
Still, it’s deceptively easy to come up with this stuff, as long as you don’t go too far by, for example, providing technical specs, since many people can clearly see that something like that isn’t plausible at all.
April 28th, 2005 at 1:53 pm

April 28th, 2005 at 2:03 pm
Perhaps Jesus he simply doesn’t feel he needs to prove himself to you. I want you to think about this for a second. Let’s say he is a real developer (I’m speaking hypothetically here). He wanted to reveal details about the Nintendo Revolution, simply because he has some sort of personal interest.
First, he would post in a forum that does not require any form of signing up, because his IP address could then be tracked, and it would be possible to track who he is. Personally, I would not jeopardize my job just to prove myself to a bunch of fanboys. Then again, I wouldn’t jeopardize my job revealing things that he has revealed. Again however, if I knew the information he supposedly knows, it would be difficult for me to keep to myself. If I was confident I wouldn’t be discovered, then I would divulge the information he has divulged.
Secondly, let’s say he did reveal details of NOA’s offices. What would that prove? Do you work for NOA Jesus that you would know such information? If you know that information, then he could know that information without ever having actually worked for NOA. So your logic is flawed, and you are simply of the mindset that you do not wish to believe him, and thus, he can do no right. Sure, people are overzealous in their believing in him, but it would be better to believe him and be proven wrong, then doubt him and be proven right. I find it ironic that you chose the moniker Jesus, and then show so little faith. He has given us enough to show, at the very least, he is a very good liar. That leaves you with the choice of either believing what he says, or not believing what he says.
If I had the desire to perpetrate a hoax of the magnitude that Aries has, I would not choose several weeks before E3. There is simply no logic in it. Why waste so much time on something that will be proven false in several weeks? Normal people have notoriously short-lived memories. Had Aries posted these comments several months ago, then by the time he would have been proven false, people would probably not even remember his name, or what it is he claimed.
In reference to contradictory statements, it is unknown which posts were done by the original Aries. You cannot call the man out on contradictory statements when you do not know which Aries made which statement. Hell, I could be Aries. It hardly proves anything, except that this board is very annoying.
I am not saying anyone should believe Aries. Personally, I am not sure I believe him. But I won’t tell other people what they should believe. Aries may be gathering a following like a shephard gathers sheep, but then again, Brooke Burgess and Matt Casamassina are guilty of the same things. Whether one knows something or knows nothing, gathering hype for the sake of bolstering one’s name is as old as man itself. So if one chooses to believe Aries, then let them. None of us are ones to speak, because we always gather around these random internet personalities like moths to the flame. It is a group mentality. So, speculate if you wish, but stop trying to call his bluff, because it proves nothing.

April 28th, 2005 at 2:12 pm
Ronn, the difference is, I knew you weren’t the original Aries, simply on the basis that you didn’t capitalize. Seriously people, it’s not difficult to tell an intelligent person from an idiot like Ronn.
April 28th, 2005 at 2:14 pm
Hehehe I noticed a few forums that have been explaining the information here are down.
To the original Aries. You sure started something!

April 28th, 2005 at 2:32 pm
This is all taken with a grain of salt. I have heard so many ideas and stories about the Revolution that I can flip out and still know that most, if not all, of the ideas won’t appear at E3.
April 28th, 2005 at 2:32 pm
Hey, im back. I thought i’d answer some more of your questions. All i say is believe what you want, the guy above isn’t me.
Also may i add one thing, think about the word ‘Revolution’ it is what is so not so revolutionary about the system. An idea that has been around for a while and even mentioned on this blog, think about the laser.

I’m actually amazed now that I think about it. How could so many things be revealed on one message board? Although…
Surely someone would have come up with it by now, but then, we cannot think in the old way, can we?
E3 2005 will be big for Revolution, but 2006 is the one to wait for.
Oh, and have any of you thought about the graphics as being a small part of the ‘Revolution’? Just take care to ‘visualize’ it…
INMHS
How does the Graphical nature provide information to the revolation of the Revolution?

Like all of us know, Nintendo has already sent out development kits for their “Revolution” gaming system. Now how could Nintendo expect these 1st, 2nd, and 3rd party developers to create games utilizing the Revolution’s capabilities without first knowing what these capabilities are? By using logic you’d see that it is certainly plausible that this Aries could know the Revolution’s capabilities, ecspecially if his claims about working for Nintendo are true.
Now, I’m not saying that I believe this guy. For all we know, Aries could be a pathological liar, but atleast keep your mind open.
April 28th, 2005 at 2:38 pm
The Revolution’s secret is…
It will use a laser to ‘revolve’ instead of letting the disk spin. This will cause faster sweeter gameplay putting less pressure on the processor.
Thankyou, im looking forward to getting fired, but oh well. I hope you all enjoy e3!
April 28th, 2005 at 2:40 pm
OMG, this is getting out of hand with all the imposters!
April 28th, 2005 at 2:41 pm
Every third party developer has to know what the other is making if its being done on the same system so they dont accidentely make something similar which will start a problem me thinks.
April 28th, 2005 at 2:50 pm
So… Brooke, Aries, INMHS… how long are we going to play the “GAME”
You see it has be come evident that information is being controlably leaked about the Revolution, but it’s also being hidden under a bunch of lies. Its a good way to reveal something without actualy revealing it fully. There are some precular things that happend and it has got people excited fustrated and even racial. I think a “GAME” is being played on us, by some big partners. If this wasn’t a “GAME” then this blog would have been shut down by Booke Along time ago. Brooke I’m going to say once again. You are a really smart man. I believe we are truely in the Micheal Douglas movie right now. This “GAME” when will it end. NinTenDo MArKeting PUsh. LeAKE theREvoLutioN, FaLLow theBUSIneSS PArTnerS. New campain to take over the forums and message boards. The Conspericy has begun.

April 28th, 2005 at 2:51 pm
I don’t understand why there are people on this forum who continue to spam and make racial slurs. It isn’t funny, and it needs to stop. My intention wasn’t to start something like this. There are many posters on here who just want to hear information and give their thoughts on the subject. But there are far too many spammers and racists on this site. I actually feel sorry for Brooke, and I feel I am partly responsible for some of the ignorance that is coming out of this discussion.
In responce to someone’s request, I will give a recap of some of the information I provided earlier. The Nintendo Revolution will use wireless controllers. The controller will incude gyroscopic and pressure sensitive capabilities. The Revolution will also have a very advanced for of voice control; a headset will allow gamers to use this function. The Nintendo Revolution will also contain a very detailed online service that will allow gamers to chat and play with each other. Nintendo will use this service to provide previews, demos, and exclusive information with gamers.
There will not be a touch screen on the controller. Brooke’s speculation on 3D functionality is totally false. The peripheral that was revealed at E3 2004 had nothing to do with that; it was in fact a microphone, which Nintendo used in Mario Party 6.
Currently I know of seven publishers who are working on the Revolution. EA, Majesto, Zoonami, Sega, Namco, Activision, and Square Enix are making games. I have no information on any other companies who might be working on Revolution software, although I can confirm that Capcom does have development kits. I never stated that a new Devil May Cry was in development for the Revolution.
I confirmed many Nintendo games in development for the Revolution, including Mario (not Mario 128), Super Smash Brothers Melee, a Retro developed FPS, Wave Race, and a futuristic 3rd person action game. I know of two other Revolution games, but I am not sure what happened to them; when I saw them they were in the earliest stages of planning.
I have said other thing, obviously, but those are some of the more important pieces of information. I would like to get back to real discussion on these issues with those who are interested. If you are here to just spam and call names, you don’t need to be here.

Ok so TP devs. know what is revolutionary about NR, that said why in the fuck would they know everything else this dudes talking about? how would they know what specific projects in-house devs. are working on? or for that matter what other TP are working on? and why the fuck would they be talking about it here?
April 28th, 2005 at 2:57 pm
I apologize for the double post.
Once again I would ask that everyone refrain from ignorant slurs. We are all gamers, and no one deserves to be called those names.
April 28th, 2005 at 2:59 pm
Look, Aries, if you know so much about Nintendo hardware and you’ve gotten to see it in person, wouldn’t you have to sign an NDA? Nintendo is completely tight lipped, so there’s no way they’d let information leak out like this. How are you able to post this info?
April 28th, 2005 at 3:02 pm
Ohh! Ohh! I’ve got a question!
Ehh…as we all know, the GBA-GC connectivity was pretty much a let down. Do you know if there will be REV-DS connectivity and if so, do you know how Nintendo is going to utilize it and add to the Revolution’s capabilities?
April 28th, 2005 at 3:03 pm
This is A GAME
April 28th, 2005 at 3:06 pm
What would it actually mean if the Revolution had stereoscopic 3D images? Wouldn’t the games look blurry and incomprehensible to anyone without a pair of glasses? And how exactly would studios design three-dimensional visuals, would it make a meaningful difference in gameplay or would it just be a graphical augmentation? Will there be some kind of built-in hardware to convert a screen image into two stereo pictures, like a devoted GPU? Or will stereoscopic 3D be an “option” which developers can program into their games at the cost of processing power?
April 28th, 2005 at 3:10 pm
Aeris what were the other two games? Also were you the one who posted those specs?
April 28th, 2005 at 3:15 pm
Will the Real Aries please stand up?
April 28th, 2005 at 3:20 pm
Ohhsweetconcord: That was still being worked out when I left Nintendo, so I have no concrete information. At one time there was discussion about using the DS as a communication device for the Revolution chat/message boards. You would use the DS to type. This idea was the only major one I heard. Once again, Nintendo hadn’t decided on this while I was there.
I did not work on the DS while I was at Nintendo, although I did play around with it. It is a very capable system. I felt Nintendo rushed the DS to the market in order to combat the PSP. That is the biggest reason there aren’t many quality games out for it right now. At E3, I’m positive Nintendo will show off some better looking games. Kirby and and Yoshi are two of the older Nintendo DS games. They were in development longer than many of the games out right now. At E3, I’m willing to bet that Nintendo will show off some of the other older games as well.
April 28th, 2005 at 3:21 pm
Aries, is there any truth to the “break apart” controller rumor? Also, any word on the revolution having a hard drive?
April 28th, 2005 at 3:25 pm
if you are so accurate with your information Aries, than why can’t you spell Majesco right?
April 28th, 2005 at 3:27 pm
Every one of your posts that you mention majesco, you spelled it “Majesto”
April 28th, 2005 at 3:28 pm
Aries, please give more details on Revolution online.
Will it be free?
Will it offer anything different from the competition?
etc etc
April 28th, 2005 at 3:34 pm
Hollywood: No, I did not post any specs.
There are two other Nintendo games in development for the Revolution. As I mentioned, Camelot is working on a new RPG for the Revolution. This is not a new Golden Sun game. The other game is a new Pikmin. This game was only in planning stages, so I’m sure it won’t be at E3. During my time at Nintendo, I learned that Miyamoto will not be involved with this game. That might have changed by now, obviously. I do not have any concrete details on either of these games; I’m guessing that Camelot’s game will be at E3, but I’m willing to bet Pikmin will not be there.
April 28th, 2005 at 3:39 pm
dear do you know anything about a possible shenmue 3 on Revolution ?
April 28th, 2005 at 3:40 pm
Aries, again, didn’t you have to sign an NDA when you saw Nintendo’s hardware? Because if so, what you’re doing is illegal times a billion. How the hell are you able to tell us this?
April 28th, 2005 at 3:41 pm
So is that all the info you know thus far has been posted now?
April 28th, 2005 at 3:42 pm
wtf?: So you are judging my credibility on a couple mis-spelled word? I make video games; I’m not an English major.
Noname: I am not familiar with that rumor.
Epsilon: Iwata answered that question at E3; it will provide free online play across the globe. I have given many details on the online system. It is very easy to navigate. I’m sure Nintendo is still working on it, but I can confirm that the functions I mentioned will be included in the final product. Like I said, there will be no reason to hang out on gaming boards or Xbox Live once the Revolution comes out.

I did not post this. Please stop spreading the false information.
Noname: The break apart controller rumor has no truth to it. In a sense, the controller can “break apart” because of the pressure sensitivity, giving the player unique functions on the left and ride sides of the controller. As far as the hard-drive, I cannot really speak too in depth on that issue. They are still ironing out exactly which direction they want to go with it, but seeing the complex community features of the system, a hard-drive is basically a necessity.

draxle: Did I sign an NDA? Yes, at one time. I am not the first person to “break” an NDA. DS pictures, specs, and details were on the web long before the DS was revealed at E3 last year. My job is not in danger as long as I post here. If I were to give out specific information about myself, I would run the risk of being exposed. I am not taking that risk.

ARIES! HELLO!
Did you or did you not have to sign an NDA when you saw Nintendo’s hardware? If you keep dodging the question, it’s pretty obvious that you’re making this up, because what you’re doing would be way way way illegal if that was true.

“I did not post this. Please stop spreading the false information.
Noname: The break apart controller rumor has no truth to it. In a sense, the controller can “break apart” because of the pressure sensitivity, giving the player unique functions on the left and ride sides of the controller. As far as the hard-drive, I cannot really speak too in depth on that issue. They are still ironing out exactly which direction they want to go with it, but seeing the complex community features of the system, a hard-drive is basically a necessity.”
If this stupid behavior continues, I’m not going to post here. It’s getting annoying. If you do not agree with me, fine; wait for E3 and see for yourself. But the impersonation needs to stop. If you cannot discredit my information, do not impersonate me.

Aries, you mentioned some acquistions that Nintendo might make earlier, or at least I think so. Could you expand more on these “acquisitions?”
Also, what is Factor 5’s relationship with Nintendo currenty?
April 28th, 2005 at 4:07 pm

HereticPB: Like I said many times, I am not going to sign up for a message board. That would give away too much information that I cannot afford to reveal. I am going to stay on this blog. There are many impersonaters, but it is quite obvious when one of them tries to impersonate me.
I’m not going to stay on much longer today. The slurs are totally unexceptable.

Well, I think that killed this topic!

I’m gonna venture the guess that the revolutionary media is re-writable GODs. Miyamoto stated WAAAY back when the N64DD came out that he wanted games to be able to have changes that stayed in the game. Like you plant a tree and come back to play the game a year later and the tree is grown. Or you shoot something and the bullet holes stay there. If the Rev is constantly writing and rewriting what you do to disk, this would finally be possible and you wouldn’t need an expensive HDD add-on.

This is for the racist……..please……PLease go away, the utter nonsense your posting is getting on my nerves and is hurtful not to myself, but many people I know. Eat shit then come back and eat some more……….oh ya then u can go fuck yourself.

If Brooke was really posting on this site, we can expect some more information tomorrow. Hopefully then some of the things I have mentioned will be confirmed. So until tommorow, I will not be posting anything; that way it will be very easy to identify impersonators. Talk to you tommorow.

If you don’t like a person for their values, their ideas, fine. But… argh. Generalizing isn’t cool. I could say that all racists are southern hicks with no schooling, but I know it’s not true. People and their fucking stereotypes. Get over yourselves and your mental issues and act like normal human beings and not some brainless jackoffs.

Hey Ariel, is there any chance of the finished version having USB ports? There was a picture released a long time ago with a old version of the beta consol and there seemed to be 2 USB ports on the side.

i hope somebody can expose that racist fuck, an all of us can go down to where he lives beat the shit out of him. People like you is what turns out bad people. I feel sorry for you mamam. Bitch…
April 28th, 2005 at 6:07 pm
wow this site is geting out of hand. after all is said done i don’t believe anywone anymore. I’m just going to wait untill E3. I’m leaving this site for good. to all you racist fucks get a life. Please!!!!
April 28th, 2005 at 6:26 pm
to whomever the fool is who keeps saying ‘…are the scorn of satan’.
the definition of scorn is:
Contempt or disdain felt toward a person or object considered despicable or unworthy.
this suggests that satan dislikes these people you mention. satan is supposed to be the evil so wouldnt that make them the good? so by saying an ethnic race is the scorn of satan is it not a compliment?
basically what im trying to point out is the phrase that you have written incorrectly 1000s of times on this board is actually ‘…are the SPAWN of satan.’
so as well as ignorant and morally bankrupt you have the intellect of a moose.
April 28th, 2005 at 6:41 pm
Well, I belive you Aries
I’ve been a Nintendo fan for a long time and much if not all of what you are saying seems like something Nintendo could do, it also fits with a lot of those things Nintendo reps. have been saying\hinting about for a long time.
As for those who think the revolution won’t have third party support because Iwata said developers could be turned off by the Revolution should research a little more, he said the same thing about the DS which developers more or less had a positive response towards.
April 28th, 2005 at 7:01 pm
How do we know if the “real” Aries hasn’t only posted once? lol, damn this is getting out of hand
April 28th, 2005 at 7:40 pm
when you come back Aries could you answer my question? thanks.
April 28th, 2005 at 7:58 pm
Aries do you know if Revolution is the final name for the console , or do you think it will change come E3. Also when are you going to post screeshots of Wave Race? I really want to see how it looks.
April 28th, 2005 at 8:02 pm
when you come back Aries could you answer my question? thanks.
April 28th, 2005 at 8:21 pm
Wow, you’re going to be really disappointed. I hope you’re saving your pennies for all those shutter glasses you’ll have to buy (one for each controller, at least). Or do you suppose they’ll build the whole system around a pair of polarized projectors? lol
April 28th, 2005 at 8:58 pm
Aries mentioned that it won’t be built into the Revolution. My theory would be an add on for Revolution, so it could be optional. I’m hoping this happens because tha’s the most awsome idea I’ve ever seen. That would be cool being behind Samus’ visor and everything would look like it’s around you, you’ll also see the visor surrounding you’re head. I wouldn’t mind having fancy looking glasses because they would probably look nice.
April 28th, 2005 at 9:10 pm
omg, 10 posts in a row without spam
did anyone here know that the GC disc actually has a very tiny part that is rewritable that is used in authenticity checking? ^_^ i read the patent on how it works
and being able to d/l the games won’t be a revolution in itself, the phantom was going to have that feature i believe, as well as a system from APE Systems which let you play any PC game on it without having to do a hard install (might have those mixed around)
currently, the xbox 360 and ps3 r not slated to have dedicated PPU’s…will the Revolution have one?
finally, developers learn alot of info about a system once they have an SDK (eg. pressure sensititive and gyros etc) b/c these features are in the SDK. and saying that aries isn’t legit b/c he doesn’t know if it supports 1080i isn’t valid. programmers don’t know/care much about output resolutions, they write AI, physics engines, control input etc
aries, i understand your concern about the forums. its too easy to drop a script in that returns an IP address that you can track down. my dad’s noticed a few people from microsoft browsing through some of the pages on our site a few times. oh, and please don’t let the idiots stop you from making many of us proud to support nintendo. when e3 comes and everything you’ve told us here is made official, i will cry from happiness, as will many others i’m sure. thanks again
April 28th, 2005 at 9:15 pm
Aries,
any word of a new Punch-Out game for NRev? The patent was recently filed by Nintendo. Gyration combined with pressure grips could make that experience quite interesting. heh.
April 28th, 2005 at 9:18 pm
Well see
I still am not sure anymore. Too many fake Aries messing this whole thing up, making it inconsistent. I dont see how anyone would waste their time making this all up, so Im a believer. But, I will listen to what GS rumor control, Matt Cassamassina, and Brooke have to say
April 28th, 2005 at 9:20 pm
Paladin, he isnt here right now. But thats a good question

Why is everyone asking Aries questions about Nintendo-made games? He claims to be an employee of some American 3rd Party company, not Nintendo. But since he has no credibility, he may as well work at Spong for all I care. Some random that showed up on a blog, seeking attention. You talk about others hi-jacking the blog, but thats basically what you did with all your speculation which is based off “us” trusting some random.
“If this stupid behavior continues, I’m not going to post here.”
Would you please. Since your not backing up your information, we might as well wait for e3 then listen to you spit your crap.
April 28th, 2005 at 10:28 pm
one can live in hope can’t he? i’m sure deep down everyone who doubts aries has a little hope that some of what he’s saying is true (aries is a guy isn’t he? he never did actually specify)
April 28th, 2005 at 10:36 pm
Its true
Aries could be making all this up
But Ive never seen anyone go this far to hijack a blog
April 28th, 2005 at 10:38 pm
“Would you please. Since your not backing up your information, we might as well wait for e3 then listen to you spit your crap.”
Please suggest how he would back his info up? If he is telling the truth, why would he risk the jobs and careers of others by siting sources?

Okay, that’s it! I’ve had enough!
If you all want to discuss about the Revolution, then go to my newly made messageboard. I’ve had it with all the constant spamming in here.
And don’t worry, you’ll know that I’m the real Brooke without anyone impersonating me.

Hey guys. Im really afraid. Something has been bothering me with all the speculation and news I have come to think one thing. That microsoft is going to team up with nintendo…
first of all, that would explain why microsoft is so confident about releasing a new console so soon, then the names xbox 360 and nintendo revolution, and as many have said, 360 is one complete revolution. Something else that is very strange is that Yamauchi steps down. He was one of the people who refused to sell nintendo to microsoft. Is someone else from microsoft going to take his place? Then aries said that things where already starting to happen sooner than he had thought, could this mean that yamauchi has been displaced due to an aquisition? then he mentioned that rare was developing for nintendo…….??? again??? all this hints that microsoft will partner with nintendo. Then everyone is saying that at e3 all nintendo fans will be shocked !!

The news media was egeard to print a story when it had be reported that Nintendo was going to Drop out of the Console race by a japanese publication. What it turned out to be was a Lost in translation mommnet. Iwata had expreced that he no longer thought Nintendo wouold compete in the Home console market. He was try it tell us then, that Nintendo had something radical up it sleave. I’m sure if a Microsoft Rep was going to replace Yam. It would have been know by now. There is no way something that large would have ever taken place with out it being noticed.
Therefor the theory is bogus.

Revolution is a word that cannot be copyrighted. If Revolution showed up in Sony’s vanacular, would that men Sony bought Nintendo too?
April 29th, 2005 at 4:02 am
Yeah but I wonder who started off with the phrase “Revolution” Microsoft, and Sony copycat Nintendo all the time. Everytime Nintendo makes a move here comes Microsoft and Sony to take Nintendo’s word and use it for their own systems. Also who created the Rumble pack, and Wave birds, now all of a sudden Sony, and Microsoft completly copy Nintendo’s idea. Microsoft, and Sony have rumble controlers on X-Box and PS2, and also wirless controlers for X-Box 360 when nintendo first started it, and invented those. Microsoft, and Sony never make their own ideas.
April 29th, 2005 at 4:07 am
microsofts idea of a gaming revolution is supplying a HDTV with all the xbox 360 demo units at retailers
sony’s idea of a revolution is putting a CPU in every household appliance from your toaster to your vaccuum cleaner
nintendo’s idea of a revolution? we’ll see in 18 days and 23 hours
April 29th, 2005 at 4:30 am
Well, it seems most people here do not believe me anymore. But as I stated before, I will be proven true come E3. I know that this is a bold statement, but one I can make since I’m absolutely convinced of the info I provided. I noticed someone asking for a description of the NOA building? Well, I could go even further and give you a description of the HQ of Nintendo of Japan which I visited a couple of times while I was still working for NOA. But would that make you feel better? Not actually knowing yourself what the building looks like? For all you know, I could simply make something up just to give you the false impression that I am 100% plausible. I really don’t see any worth in such a description to be honest.
If the really Aries said that, can you describe me some places where you go inside the Nintendo research center in Kyoto Higashiyama or the HQ ?I am living close to it , and I ve got some friends who can tell me if you are telling the truth…And by the way , I can speak fluently japanese. and I search everywhere on the net, every japanese forums about revolution…and i didn t find anything about it…exect one minor things…
April 29th, 2005 at 4:32 am
I have just found this string during my lunch today, seems very interesting, I myself work in the industry and my company has Xbox 360 dev kits, heres a few questions to Aries to see if he knows what he’s talking about
1. You say you worked for Nintendo, does miyamoto smoke? (I have met him myself several times, so I know)
2. What does the XBox 360 dev kit look like
April 29th, 2005 at 4:47 am
Aries is working for Silicon Knights. He’s probably not Japanese, and Silicon Knights recently made a deal with Sega.
April 29th, 2005 at 4:49 am
Silicon Knights are not working on Vectorman (as far as I know anyway), I have been told that is been made by someone else…
Go figure
April 29th, 2005 at 5:24 am
i myself have photos of Nintendo HQ, so i could tell if Aries/whoever was telling the truth
silicon knights seems like a really good guess, only concern is that they said they were working on a new franchise…if vectorman was around in the early 90s he’s definantly not new. trouble is, most other of sega’s partners either make sports or racing games, or are internal
April 29th, 2005 at 5:36 am
Pseudo is currently developing Vectorman
April 29th, 2005 at 6:01 am
OK, I talked to a very reliable source who was mentioning that Ninetendo is acquiring some 3rd-party technology for the Revolution. He let slip that he really thought that edimensional offered some interesting technologies that could be applied to game consoles, specifically the 3d algorithms they created for the virtualfx box:

Hey Aries, any word on a new Super Mario RPG for Revolution? (Praying that’s the game square enix is working on for the Rev.)

I didn’t know a new PunchOut was in development. Are you sure? If they just filed a patent for it, I have no concrete information on the game. I would be willing to bet that it will be a Gamecube game though. Nintendo has done a bad job of releasing software for the Gamecube throughout the year, but the holiday lineup should be very impressive. Zelda alone justifies the purchase of one.
I have met Miyamoto a few times as well. As I’m sure you know, he doesn’t work in Washington; he’s busy at EAD. I have never seen Miyamoto smoke, but obviously I don’t know him personally. I don’t see how me knowing that detail would prove/disprove my credibility.
You already know what the Xbpx 360 development kit looks like.
Microsoft isn’t going to “buy” Nintendo anytime soon. There is a huge misconception about Nintendo’s financial standings. Despite the Gamecube’s poor preformance, Nintendo has never had a problem posting a quarterly profit. On the other hand, Microsoft has only posted one quarterly profit off the Xbox. They are losing hundreds of dollars for every Xbox sold. That isn’t new information.
All I know about Square Enix’s project is that it will be an RPG. I have no other details on it.
I do not work for Silicon Knights, and I am not female. I don’t know how those misconceptions came about.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:43 am
Sillicon Knight could not prove their worth. Two Great Games on the Cube, both monumental sale faliures. Lets hope partnering with Sega will bare good fruit.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:45 am
Brooke- if you really started the forum, please post on the front page. Or, at least post what you have gleaned from this conversation. I think that when someone posts with “admin”, it is the real Brooke, but I have no way of knowing; none of us do. Please help us out. Thanks.

I don´t want to test if u are the one you say you are, but if everything you say is proven true, wouldn´t you have any problems for revelating all that info???

Aries- you mentioned a lack of a D-Pad, and that previous versions of the controller lacked shoulder buttons (which I’m sure must have been brought back for FPS games, due to their trigger-like design)
With backwards compatability being confirmed by Iwata at GDC, how will a simplified controller be able to play Gamecube games? Does it involve such things as “Squueze plus stick=D-Pad”?, or does it involve backwards compatibility with old Gamecube controllers?
Also, could you give us a description of the newer, simpler controller? I’ve got a picture in my mind (thinking a GCN controller minus D-Pad, C-Stick, and Z-Button) but was wondering what we can expect it to look like.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:23 am
Why did you leave Nintendo? Isn’t it the best gaming company to work for?
Also, I have a question about GameCube development. I’ve been doing a lot of development on the Game Boy Advance, and it has many things implemented by hardware. For example, the OAM is great. Is there 3D version of that for the Game Cube?
Which platform is the easiest to develop for?

A couple more questions. A lot of the devices will be wireless, how will they be powered? Will both the controller & headset have lithium-ion batteries and rechargable like the DS & GBASP? Or will we be stuck with AA bateries like Wavebird?
Do the NRev controllers have a little docking holder to sit and charge when not in use?

superdouche: I have answered that question many times. By signing up for a message board, I would risk being exposed. I am not going to share any personal information on a message board. It’s quite easy to tell when someone is impersonating me.
N-Zero: The controller will have a similar design to the Gamecube one, but there will be more functions. The pressure sensitive controls are located on the each of the controller’s handles (right under the L and R shoulder buttons). The buttons, analog stick, and c-stick will be mapped on the front of the controller, similar to the way it is found on the Gamecube controller. The gyroscopic functionality will be located where the wire is on the Gamecube’s controller. There is another function on the controller, but I am not going to reveal it. I have given my reason for this before.
Cool Guy: I left Nintendo for personal issues. I didn’t expect to work in the gaming business again, but my current employer convinced me otherwiese. The gaming industry is a very exciting world, but most people cannot imagine the level of work and hours that is put into it. I am on break this week, but on Monday I’ll be going back. We are trying to gear up for E3.
I’m sure many gaming journalists would even tell you that covering E3 isn’t as fun as many believe it to be. There is a lot of work and running around to do.

Meh. I don’t think the spamming here can be stopped. A lot of serious people are here but mostly just kids, or people who haven’t grown up. Seriously, this blog is intended to be about Broken Saints, it’s not spam heaven. It’s for serious discussion.
Well, the only positive thing IS that your blog has hit the media bigtime Brooke. But again, it has more negative sides to it than positive.

April 29th, 2005 at 7:54 am
@Aries: well, I’m becoming a journalist myself, working my way up, and I can understand that E3 is very intense as far as work and the crowd surrounding you goes, but still, for people like me it would also be quite the experience.
I want to thank the real Aries anyway, whoever it might be, for making the pre-E3 weeks interesting. Doesn’t matter if it’s true or not, it’s still nice to see the Nintendo community alive on the Internet. As long as there are tons of these sick fanboys, Nintendo WILL get enough sales.
Oh, and Brooke, again, thank you too. Your article (or speculation, you get what I mean), was also very internesting.
So, both of you, thanks. I hope this place will get a bit calmer. I have the feeling that it will, I have the feeling it’s already better then yesterday. But if things turn out to be true, you can bet this place will get crowded again. Maybe not a bad idea to take some precautions right before E3, Brooke?

Good to know. But as for Gamecube games that require the D-Pad- any ideas as to how this will work? I know there aren’t many that use it, but not being able to turn on your scan visor in Metroid hurts the game pretty badly.

April 29th, 2005 at 8:11 am
Paladin: It won’t use AAA batteries. Like I said yesterday, I will not reveal any information on the battery or disk format because they both play a role in the “revolutionary” aspect of the system.
Once again, I’d like to apologize to Brooke for the hectic traffic and spamming his site has been receiving this week. I didn’t expect so many spammers and hackers to pay attention to this.
Moz: You are very correct. This is always an exciting time for gamers, but journalists and developers are the ones who work hard to make it exciting. Last year everyone was blown away by the new Zelda, Splinter Cell, and Resident Evil 4. The DS and PSP were also impressive. This year is going to be even better. All three systems will be revealed (in one way or another), and some great games are going to keep everyone busy. I can’t wait to see what some of my favorite developers are working on. Perfect Dark 0 is going to be very interesting, and I can’t wait to play around with Final Fantasy 12. But, like I said earlier, Nintendo is going to steal the show. The Revolution isn’t the only show stopper they have up their sleeves.

I’ve just been informed by a source, who’s name i cannot reveal, that Majesto will not be making a RPG for revolution after all. They have had sever problems with the dev-kit, which ofcourse is a fact I connot believe.
Here is one more feature which the revolution will take advantage of; Revolution:DS connection (WiFi ofcourse) Much like the connection between GC:GBA used in FinalFantasy-CC, where the GBA works as a controller. DS game to Revolution game connection will not be present at anytime due to some quite old Nintendo agreements.
More to come in the next couple of days. Rest assured.

Look I’m 95 per cent sure that you are right. But to me 100 per cent sure you are right, answer my question in this post about the GameCube:
http://brokensaints.com/blog/?p=48#comment-1838
You don’t have to hide anything about the GameCube. Of course, if you can’t answer it, then I can’t believe everything you’re saying. I already know that the GameCube is easiest to develop for, but how? Again, this is just to gauge whether you really are a developer.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:29 am
Aries was that you who posted the specs for the GPU? and the revolution having a PPU? and if the revolutin does have that GPU and PPU then how in the world can nintendo keep the price down?
April 29th, 2005 at 8:29 am
Moz: We are going to reveal some information at E3, but our game will not be on the show floor. Next week we’ll be working on a trailer of the game, and I hope it will be released at E3.
Cool guy: I always wanted to go into the video game business, and like every kid I wanted to work at Nintendo. After leaving Nintendo, I thought about going back into teaching; I taught science at a middle school. But, like I said, I couldn’t stay away from gaming for long.
The Gamecube is pretty easy to develop for, and the Revolution is similar in many ways. I have never worked on the PS2 or the Xbox, so I can’t make that comparison. I can tell you what other developers are telling me about the PS3 though; apparently it is hard to work on. I mentioned that earlier.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:30 am

Will the wirless controllers support this?

Fair enough Aries, I fail to see how that is “revolutionary” though…in terms of getting ppl excited, but then again you said you didn’t feel it to be very “revolutionary” either. Not nearly as exciting as their new control schemes and online plans. I’ve always assumed anyway that the term “Revolution” was talking about the system as a whole and all the things it can do…not one specific feature.
Not sure if you’ll know this…Does the Xbox 360 wireless controllers use AA batteries or a rechargeable format?

I’ve heard endlessly about how easy it is to develop for the GC. Please go into more detail, and can you please answer the question I referred to in my last post. In case you haven’t done any GBA development, the OAM stands for object attribute memory. It holds information about a sprite, such as its position, its size, its priority, its palette, the index into the actual tile memory, etc. Is there are 3D version of that in the GC? Instead of tile data, is there a polygon mesh?
April 29th, 2005 at 8:39 am
aries well the revolution support the same kinde ofmemory card that the gamcube has
April 29th, 2005 at 8:43 am
used too for over eight years but I had to leave when Microsoft bought them, just had to
April 29th, 2005 at 8:43 am
Aries you never answered my quiestion aboiut USB connections. Is there any possibility of it being on Revolution?
April 29th, 2005 at 8:43 am
To Aries: Perhaps you work for Orbital Media, but I would guess not.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:44 am
Like I said earlier, I have not posted any specs. They are not that important.
Paladin: I don’t really find the “revolutionary” part of the system to be that innovative. It makes games easier to play, but all the Revolution’s functions do that. I really think Nintendo throws around the words “revolutionary” and “innovation” too much. A perfect example would be Mario 128. It is basically just a better version of Mario 64, and Miyamoto added some interesting camera schemes as well as some other cool funtions. That’s it, unless they totally revamped the game after I left. It will be an amazing game, but I don’t see any developer’s “stealing” the ideas. With the Revolution, other companies might take some of Nintendo’s ideas; Microsoft has already done this.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:51 am
From what you seen of the game…was Mario 128 more of a throwback to Super Mario Bros 3….Castles, mushroom kingdom, frog suit…or is it more of an oddball like Isle Delphino & a water pack?
April 29th, 2005 at 8:51 am
Cool guy: How do you know I actually develop games? There is more than one way to work on a game. I am not going to give out any information that could put my job at risk.
Bloodman: We do not have actual Revolution consoles; we have development kits. When I worked at Nintendo, I never heard anything about USB ports. The early designs of the system did noy have them either.
That’s all the information I’ll give for now. I won’t be back today until Brooke’s next article is posted on IGN. If it isn’t posted, I’ll just come back after the Nintendo Minute is posted later today. Talk to you soon.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:54 am
To Aries: Please say the storage medium for the games is not cart based or indeed those small disks, what is the storage medium (you probalby won’t answer) but I dare you
April 29th, 2005 at 8:55 am
Ok, I believe you.
Since you once were a science teacher, I figured that your math would be good. Developers need good math, right?
April 29th, 2005 at 9:07 am
when is nintendos prese confrence again
April 29th, 2005 at 9:07 am
This entire blog went to **** some time ago. No it’s reached the point where anyone can say anything under any name. Trying to filter through it for actual information has become like searching for a gem in a dung heap while blidfolded and wearing boxing gloves while others throw more buckets of dung at you and loud thrash metal blares into your ears.
Sorry, but I think I’ll stick with IGN and wait till E3.
April 29th, 2005 at 9:10 am
Or just start another one somewhere else as I don’t go on IGN’s very much
April 29th, 2005 at 9:10 am
ARIES: Could you provide us with any info on what the DS has in store?
April 29th, 2005 at 9:13 am
Greenman, i thnk we can safly say that it will not be cart based. If you ask me, i think Revolution will have two seperate mediums. One will be a hd-dvd or some other disk based medium. The other might be downloadable data which can be saved to a memory card and can be updated frequently with the nintendo connect service.
April 29th, 2005 at 9:17 am
Aries..first off..thank you very much for those powerful insights into the future. I hope for the sake of my gaming interests that you correct. As a matter of fact, if even half of what you say is true, i’m giddy with excitement.
I understand the risks involved with relaying any type of information regarding details about next-gen systems, especially with Nintendo’s closed legs, no snatch, philosophy. yet, i admire you, cuz as a gamer, you are of the same, and u understand how excitining it is for others to have information. Cuz, afterall, in the outcome, there is no way any of this info will hurt Nintendo. If anything, it will produce some excitement for a company many deem as dead to the video game world. But i believe in Nintendo, always have. Been playing their games for 18 years. Owned every home console within a month of it’s release, with the exception of the original NES, but i had it within 5 months of release.
I am glad someone has the balls to step up and say something. Nintendo doesn’t ever say shit, and in the end, it always hurts them. They are so afraid of people stealing their technology. Who gives a flying fuck. No controller microsoft or sony will produce will ever be as intuitive and carefree as a wavebird. Hands down. No questions asked, no ifs, ands, or buts. Nintendo knows games. They know what direction the industry is headed into. THat’s why i have faith in them. Always have. Always will.
now aries, you spoke of a game “that starts close to F, and ends close to 6″. i have a few guesses, you said it was a remake right? well, how bout these, Gunsmoke(wouldn’t that be fuckin awesome?? HOw many of you remember this game?) Gyromite ( how ironic and suiting it would be to release this game considering they had the technology years ago) and GI JOE (amazing game for it’s time, and with all the fanfare, CGI movies, and war shit goin on, it could prove a rather deep and intriguing storyline with all the characters in it’s universe)..am i even close. let me know please. at least a hint.
As far as the online gaming is concerned. These are theories i have amassed regarding information i have read and recieved over the past 5-6 months. Nintendo will use a wireless internet service similar to the technology in the DS. ONly it will NOT, i repeat, NOT use existing Broadband technology that you already pay for. Iwata-san has said for years now that it isn’t profitable. people hafta pay $40-80/month(depending on your provider and what region you are in) just to have broadband access, on top of that, pay to play with the service (a la Xbox Live). I believe they plan on using satellite signals to broadcast, and install hotspots throughout the US and what have you. THat means initially, right out of the box, you could play someone, perhaps within your specific region, online with no fees and no contracts to broadband providers. I also believe that if it picks up, they would enable gamers to play others across the country or world. NOw, Nintendo is not the type of company to just sit back and let others control the pace of the game. They are pace setters, always have been, always will be. Them Japanese fellows are geniuses, and i salute them for it. Imagine the possibilities of playing for free online. OMG. AMAZING. If the ping rates and framerates could sustain with their technology, they would take over. Who would buy a system with online gaming in mind, in which you had to pay for Broadband service as well as pay to just play with they system online, when you could play for free right out of the box. Even if Nintendo added some sort of peripheral for say $50 that would enable this feature, it would well be worth the money in the long run. Think about how much money the consumer would save. upwards towards a thousand dollars per year. THat’s a significant difference in my mind. I always know Nintendo has tricks up their sleeves, and that is a reason why i stay devoted to the company to revolutionized games into what we play today. ANyone who doesn’t see this, is blind, naive, or just plain ignorant.
Anyways, Aries, keep up the good work. U got my attention. I guess we’ll see in less than 3 weeks if your info holds water. Until then, i salivate and dream with every blog you post. God bless NINTENDO.

Aries: i think like many others i do not have a clue what to believe!? As a nintendo fan i would love it if all this was in-fact true, however lets be honest why should we believe it?! This is not a message saying i think you’re a fake or not just letting you know how i percieve your information. I’m finding it increasingly difficult to believe that if you are who you say you are that you would be getting away with posting all of this information, surely your identity would be exposed?? If possible please find a suitable way to confirm all this information for all of my sanity is worth. Finally whether true or false your work here is ingenious, all the best from SCOTLAND!!!

Why is there a picture of Finding Nemo on the main site? Do you have some affiliation with them or what?

Just some food for thought, has anybody considered since this guy’s name is Aries, and Aries is the “God of War,” maybe this guy is just a very imaginative Sony fanboy here to get Nintendo fans and fanboys’ hopes up.
April 29th, 2005 at 10:06 am
What about all that spectulation awhile back the system would be ENTIRELY wireless?
Even the powersource?
I don’t really understand how thats possible, but have an entirly wireless system is something that certaintly makes games “easier to play” … and its a first.
Maybe that has something to do with the way the discs are read too.
April 29th, 2005 at 10:07 am
Cheese, two words……… SHUT UP
April 29th, 2005 at 10:11 am
i think Aries is amongst us right now, posting with another name, having an input into our thoughts while he’s “away” so that next time he’s “back on” he’s already set himself up with what to say for maximum impact!!!
April 29th, 2005 at 10:11 am
Aries.. I belive you.. and i hope all this stuff you said we gonna see in E3 and it’s gonna be amazing….
a question… do you have some footage of the videos we gonna see for revolution???? can you show it???
and a last thing.. what a heck is Pokemon XD…. ????
April 29th, 2005 at 10:13 am
I’ve been following along for about 1 and a half hours but got a little tired due to the length of the whole thing. Right now i’ve lost track of if Aeris is even still here. Is that last post at 8:23 his or is it one of the impersonators that were here a while back?

Ah! My bad. I didn’t refresh the page.

hey bloodman..think hard drive. Downloadable content will directly feed onto the hard drive they will implement. They would hafta have a hard drive with the type of services and technology they are trying to utilize.
There has been contraversy over the hard drive. Yes, its a good thing to put into a game system, but just look at Microsoft. The hard drive set them back so far that they just started to make a profit. That was a heavy loss for them. And since Nintendo isn’t microsoft and certainly are not as rich as them (even though Nintendo has billions in the bank) it will be a hard choice for Nintendo. I can settle with memory cards but they have to hold ALOT. Also, depending how much memory Nintendo will give to their hard drive (if any) we may have to buy mem cards anyway. If they put in alot, then we wont, but if they do, then we wont.
I’m gonna leave this one up to Nintendo.
April 29th, 2005 at 10:43 am
I’m personally attending E3 here in a few weeks. I just recieved my confirmation e-mail. I’ll be sure to take a video camera and pick at every detail concerning this mysterious information. I hope it to be true, from a buisness standpoint, if they unveil a playable Zelda build, along with this new system…oh my god. They will “own” E3. Not even Sony could put a lid on that thunder. As for the big M$…Heh. Let’s hope Microsoft has Halo 3, 4, and five to show…
Later all!

shout out to aries for the rumorness from the dirty south! (texas…heh..)
April 29th, 2005 at 10:50 am
What part of Texas?
April 29th, 2005 at 10:59 am
uh…the south? (think all of Rio Grande Valley)
April 29th, 2005 at 11:02 am
yes bloodman..yet..think about how much a hard drive costed 3, 4, even 5 years ago compared to today. Remember when a 120Gig HD used to cost like $200..now you can find em for under $100 at some places. And really, you can’t buy a HD compacity less than 80 Gigs anymore. SO prices have gone way down. ALso, Microsoft’s X-box was their first turn into the video game console wars. So, initally, their costs would far supercede that of Sony or Nintendo, cuz they already have alot of the technology and Know how in the industry. If Nintendo feels like they make a profit of it and it will help their system and games, they will do it.
and Bacon..i don’t care what the cost is. If the machine can do what Aries says it can, and Nintendo uses the machine with some kick ass software and games, i’ll gladly pay it. Shit, i’ll pay it just to play online for free.
April 29th, 2005 at 11:09 am

I’ll pay for it too, but will the average consumer? How big of a hit is Nintendo willing to take?
April 29th, 2005 at 11:21 am
what time IGN will release the new info?
April 29th, 2005 at 11:23 am
Mid-day? which i guess for me on the east coast will be around 4-5 considering its like noon in CA

word from speculation at the “official” revolution block that was supposedly made by Brook says that the blog is not run by Brook but by another imposter. So there might not be any infoormation today at all.
April 29th, 2005 at 11:48 am
Aries, could you please contact me if at all possible. Let me know what development studio you work with, privately of course. So I may meet up with you at the LACC and talk shop. What wing will your DEV property be set up at? My e-mail is RyanDL7@hotmail.com. If you could get in touch with me that would be awesome. I, as well am in the industry, and what you’ve been preaching…is interesting, albeit a little risky… Haha. I would edge down just a bit. I know all of your “fans” ^_^ are dying for new information…but man! Be carefuly, your liable to get yourself in trouble!
By the way…heh. I think I know who you are, and who you work for. If your indeed working with a REV kit, and on new VMAN IP. Well, please contact me. Oh and have you recieved your badge yet? I think I will need to pick mine up on-site. The show sold out so quick this year! The phone-lines are always busy!
April 29th, 2005 at 11:54 am
Honestly, I find it hard to believe that someone is a professional game developer, much less one with a Revolution development kit, when they make blatant spelling mistakes on something like this. I’m not singling out one person, but I think that some (more) people are pretending to be who they aren’t.
April 29th, 2005 at 12:02 pm
I am here to let you all know that only, and I mean ONLY, close Nintendo personnel really know anything about the Revolution. They have all signed non disclosure acts, so anything anybody here says, whether it is brooke or aries, is PURE SPECULATION. Only Nintendo knows, and we will reveal some of our surprises for you on May 17, 9am PST.

Aries has to work for Silicon Knights. IGNCube’s Matt said SK is working on a “relic from the past”, and recently SK partnered with Sega to have games they make published by them. SK apparently is making a Vectorman game with Sega publishing, if I thought all of this out well enough.
April 29th, 2005 at 1:00 pm
Aries news is to great to be true. I think Brooke’s speculation is the closest to being true, becuase otherwise IGN would have decline it in its mailbags, which it has not done yet.
But, I really hope that Aries has some truth, like the online plan, the third party support, square-enix, and the SSB game.

April 29th, 2005 at 1:41 pm
If Aries works for SK, he wouldn’t be working on a Revolution game…
So Sega’s game has been confirmed to not be for Revolution?
Not sure I’ve read that anywhere. You do know it’s possible for developers to work on two different games at one time.
Also, Dennis Dyack was dropping lots of hints on the IGN GCNGB saying “It’ll be good to come back and talk with all of you soon.” or something like that.
April 29th, 2005 at 1:44 pm
yeah, it seems to me that aries is either working for SK, rare, or factor 5.

the only interesting thing about the nintendo minute was when she admited that Revolution will be nintendos most “Ambitious project ever” which could mean that they are spending lots of money in the development of the console, good to hear this at least, but not the news we were expecting
April 29th, 2005 at 6:14 pm
Poor Aries, you are da fake.
You better come back and apologize now, no huge update, no nothing, everything you have said = false.
Aries NEVER said there was going to be an update. Fake Brooke did.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:16 pm
No, he said he would post AFTER the big update.
No big update means he is da FAKE!!!

He said he would post after the big update IF there was a big update. He never said there would be one. He also said he would post after the Nintendo Minute.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:22 pm
“That’s all the information I’ll give for now. I won’t be back today until Brooke’s next article is posted on IGN. If it isn’t posted, I’ll just come back after the Nintendo Minute is posted later today. Talk to you soon.”
My bad, I read that wrong, so he STILL has a chance of being da REAL!
Aries is either REAL or really good at covering all of his bases, plain and simple.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:23 pm
Ok folks… Im back. I see that IGN did not post the news. My guess is they are not allowed to divulge into the Nintendo secret because of contractual Obligations. But like I said….I am back after the Nintendo Minute.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:23 pm
I think he is real.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:25 pm
Party. Aries is Back. Pull out the chips and dip.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:25 pm
Tell us more about the Revolution games please. Especially Super Smash Bros.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:27 pm
Lets play a game now…I want you all to read along and slowly envision what I am about to say. First off..I want you all to erase your memories of the last decade of console gaming. Think back to the NES days…..are ya thinking?

Not the real Aries!!!
April 29th, 2005 at 6:29 pm
Aries, what would you say is the revolutions best feature?
April 29th, 2005 at 6:30 pm
Arrggghh Brooke what are Ya Doin’ to us!!??!!
April 29th, 2005 at 6:31 pm
This is not the real Aries!!! How stupid would he be to link to the Retro Studios Site???
April 29th, 2005 at 6:31 pm
well its best feature is obviously the “revolutionary” one..and that I will not give up so easily.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:32 pm

I’m thinkin’
If you are indeed the real Aries
April 29th, 2005 at 6:35 pm
Now back to what I was saying. Go back to the NES days…How did you feel when you played….How is that feeling now…Why is it different?
April 29th, 2005 at 6:35 pm
“Ok folks… Im back. I see that IGN did not post the news. My guess is they are not allowed to divulge into the Nintendo secret because of contractual Obligations. But like I said….I am back after the Nintendo Minute.”
I thought this problem was resolved earlier. These impersonations need to stop. I have never used a username with a link to another site. Pay attention.
It looks like there will not be a follow up piece on Brooke’s 3D speculation. I have a feeling that there will be a followup feature in the future, but I seriously doubt he has pictures of Revolution games. We won’t be seeing any until E3. The same can be said of the PS3 games.
I don’t have too many details on the Revolution version of Mario. It was in early development stages when I worked at Nintendo. It will use all of the Revolution’s capabilities in various game situations and mini games. With Mario 64, Nintendo introduced the world to analog control. With this Mario, Nintendo is going to introduce all of the system’s major functions. Like I said earlier, when I saw the game there really weren’t too many concrete details down. There was no story; Miyamoto was just building the game from the ground up. Gameplay comes first with Miyamoto. And, once again, this is not Mario 128.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:36 pm
I hope the real Aries comes back
April 29th, 2005 at 6:37 pm
Umm 2d mario
April 29th, 2005 at 6:39 pm
What about Super Smash Bros???
April 29th, 2005 at 6:40 pm
spoke too soon
April 29th, 2005 at 6:40 pm
Aries, if you could describe this “revolutionary” feature in one word, what would it be?
April 29th, 2005 at 6:41 pm
Aries…Does the “revolutionary” feature have something to do with the worlds in the games evolving. You mentioned how the “feature” is somewhat related to batteries and the medium. In the late days of the N64…Nintendo was working on the 64DD and it was rumored that the Zelda title being introduced on this new device was going to yield a world that was constantly evolving. Forests would grow..things would change..as things in the real world do. Is Nintendo revisiting this concept?
April 29th, 2005 at 6:43 pm
Is there any way we can move this to a forum of some sort..the load time on this page is getting ridiculous.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:43 pm
Please. Stop asking about the Revolutionary feature. He isn’t going to say. Just wait til E3. Besides, I’m more interested in the ONLINE games anyway.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:43 pm
Aries, I think you mentioned possible Nintendo acquisitions before. Could you expand on this?
April 29th, 2005 at 6:44 pm

April 29th, 2005 at 6:47 pm
I hate to beg for info from you Aries, but I gotta ask: What is up with “Mario 128?” I only ask because Miyamoto has said it would be at E3 for the last three years in a row, and it’s always “pulled at the last minute because the gameplay might be copied.” I have the feeling that will happen once again, so if you know about it, could you please tell me, what is it? Is it just Mario 64 with better graphics and new levels and a new camera? Is it a compilation of those kickass Challenge Zones from Mario Sunshine? Is it some other kind of spinoff, like Sunshine? Is the reason it’s been in secret for so long really worth keeping it in secret so long?
I like, ache for a new Mario platformer. They’re the reason I buy Nintendo systems (I like other Nintendo games, but they all come second.) One Mario game per generation is just bullshit when Sony has three different IPs in three different games this gen. I know Mario games are big and special, but the wait for this next one is just killing me. I don’t want another Mario-less E3 like last year…and the year before…and the year before…
April 29th, 2005 at 6:50 pm
Lostlegend: One word to describe the “revolutionary” aspect of the system? I already have used the word “simple” to describe it, so I’ll use another one. Evolution. And I am not using the word in the sense that games will be able to grow or anything like that, as SnsoryOverload suggested. I am using it in the sense that the Revolution will use a function that is just the logical evolution of interactive media. When you see it you will understand what I mean. It isn’t going to be anything totally alien to the average person.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:51 pm
Here was the big announcement:
“All right, people. You’ve been waiting patiently for the secret capabilities of the Nintendo Revolution, and I will reveal it to you here, first.
The Nintendo Revolution has some sound activated command that digitizes you inside the game itself. Ever seen that show Superhuman Samurai: Cybersquad? Yeah, it’s kinda like that.
You heard it here first, folks. biggrin.gif”
Wow…so it actually digitizes you into the game…this is going to be incredible..whats even more fucking incredible is that people fell for this.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:56 pm
hmmm… simple…..evolution…simple…evolution…. The only thing I can gather from the way you put it..is that more of your senses will be involved with the way you interact with the game. Im envisioning something along the lines of how the computers worked in Minority Report. Which is where the Gyro would come in. But that still seems a bit far fetched..it will end up being something very traditional and ordinary in comparison.
April 29th, 2005 at 6:59 pm
Hey Aries,
Could you spill some of the beans on GameCube’s Mario 128 if you’d be so kind?
You should know something for being with NOA until 2004.
Will it be more traditional, like SMB3 with castles, suit powerups, mushroom kingdom, etc….or will it be weird and off-the-wall like Isle Delphino & a water pack?
I’m hoping it’s the former.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:00 pm
Aries, do you know if nintendo is going to try to make some NEW (does not include a famous nintendo charcter, and its a totally different game then nintendo usually makes) flagship title for the revolution?
April 29th, 2005 at 7:01 pm
I just want to know about Super Smash Bros.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:02 pm
Aries, can you mabey give us another hint on the feature? Or something that relates to it like water does to a boat?
Over at another website we did some speculation on the battery. We proved that energy could be transmitted wirelessly though air and that would explain why no batteries would be involved. Also, was it you or someone else that mentioned a “transformation”. Could this be transforming energy to a reciever? Sound plausible to me. I think that the revolution will represent the wireless aspect that will be put in every system for next gen on.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:03 pm
OJ: A couple months ago, Microsoft announced a deal with Mistwalker that will have the developer make two Xbox 360 games in the future. Look for Nintendo to announce some similar deals in the future. Gamespy mentioned awhile ago that some interesting partnerships are going to be announced at E3. Wait and see.
Word Assassin: I agree with you. I was disappointed with Super Mario Sunshine, mainly because Nintendo hasn’t made a “real” Mario game in so long. I think Mario 128 is going to please a lot of people. As you already know, the game has been in development for a very long time. It could have been shown at E3 2004 in video form like the Zelda game, but Nintendo chose not to. I really don’t understand that. I think Miyamoto has hyped this game too much. Developers are not going to steal anything from this. In my opinion, Mario 128 will be a great game; it will include many older features that were not in Mario 64. But, like I said, it isn’t going to be the “innovative” work of genius some think it will be.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:03 pm
Aeris do you know what ideas Microsoft copied?
April 29th, 2005 at 7:08 pm
2 Questions, Please answer
1) Can you give us an idea of what Poke’mon XD will be? I’m guessing it will be a complete adventure game where you run around and get pokemon which you can then control in the battles instead of typical 4 move list
2) What will the next Super Smash Bros be like?
April 29th, 2005 at 7:08 pm
Everyone, the Brooke Burgess who posted and claimed that Aries is from a bank was a fake Brooke, I emailed him. hje also told me the forum that was made was not of his doing. He hast been busy with us or with anything nintendo for the last week, hes busy fixing the forums

well unless an imposter Aries posted, I remember something earlier said about an all new franchise with a futurist cyborg ninja…Eiji Aounoma & Hideo Kojima (of MGS fame) are working on it together for NRev.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:09 pm

April 29th, 2005 at 7:13 pm
thanks paladin, I hope that is true. I always loved the metal gear solid series, and I love Eiji’s work. also, thanks Aries for answering my question.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:13 pm
Lostlegend: As Reggie has said before, Nintendo will be creating some new IP’s for the Revolution. For instance, Camelot’s new game will be totally original; it will not be another Golden Sun. Retro is also working on a new game. These are smart moves in my opinion. Outside of Pikmin, there weren’t any new gaming series introduced on the Gamecube. I was really disappointed in this. For instance, I’m sure you all are familiar with the whole Star Fox Adventures fiasco. It was originally supposed to be a new, original game, but Nintendo pressured Rare to turn it into a Star Fox game. The end result was not really imressive.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:13 pm
You mention about interesting partnerships being announced…PLeeeaaaasse just tell me that a Microsoft and Nintendo partnership is ridiculous and out of the question. There has been some speculation that the Yamauchi departue may or may not be related to a Microsoft acquisition of Nintendo.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:15 pm
I ENJOY PARTY HATS =D =D =D
April 29th, 2005 at 7:16 pm
Yamauchi is giving all his stock the Iwata. Yamauchi was Microsofts Key to getting Nintendo. They wanted him to give them his shares. But that isnt happening.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:17 pm
Aries, why don’t you come on over to a better site I know of, Nintendonow.com. You’ll be treated with more respect there, and the moderators will make sure things don’t get this out of hand. I hope you’ll consider it, I’m sure everyone over there would love to hear what you have to say, be it true or false.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:17 pm
Well, not *quite* the detail I was looking for, but it’s a great relief to know it’ll be a regular platformer. I don’t care about innovation, Nintendo is #1 at platforming and I want it more often. They need to release like, level packs, with 100 SMS Challenge Levels once a year on the Rev in-between the regular games for like, $20 a pop. That would be a wet dream come true.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:24 pm
Can you describe something that you saw from the legend of zelda being made for revolution?
April 29th, 2005 at 7:26 pm
They need to release like, level packs, with 100 SMS Challenge Levels once a year on the Rev in-between the regular games for like, $20 a pop. That would be a wet dream come true.
or better yet, free downloadable updates…that would jive with the “supposed” awesome NRev online plans…
April 29th, 2005 at 7:29 pm
First of all, Im quite confident that Aries is the real deal, and that he works for Silicon Knights.
1)Sega and SK are going to develop games together
2)Sega lent Aries’ company the vectorman IP
3) Aries said that along with PD0, Zelda, and a few otehr games, the mystery SK game will be one of the best. Hes hyping his own project (vectorman)
Deny all you want, Aries, you work for SK!
And are these pics real (scroll down a bit)
http://s11.invisionfree.com/Broken_Saints_Realm/index.php?showtopic=1&st=75
And are there ANY new handhelds in development from Nintendo? Whats in store for the DS?
April 29th, 2005 at 7:30 pm
In my opinion, Mario 128 will be a great game; it will include many older features that were not in Mario 64.
–
Like different suits, warp potions, fireballs and the like!!
April 29th, 2005 at 7:31 pm
And how will ninty keep the costs down of this system if its powerful and has lots of xtras (online, gyros, pressure…)
April 29th, 2005 at 7:33 pm
Dam0: The wireless controller function was stolen from Nintendo; believe me on that. There is a reason why Nintendo rarely makes positive statements avout Microsoft. They don’t even think the Xbox 360 will be competitive.
Terrin: From what I heard while working at Nintendo, the next Pokemon game will be a true RPG. At one time, there was discussion on actually having it cel shaded. This idea was dropped, obviously; I’m sure you’ve seen pics from the game by now. I can’t wait to see what happened to this game. It wil be very different from the GBA versions in the sense that it will have many RPG mechanics; I’m sure we’ll see some interesting mini games as well. Although I think it will be a good game, I’m sure it won’t be the best Pokemon game released this year (in Japan, at least).
I mentioned many details on Super Smash Brothers already. It will include online play as well as many different play modes. You will be able to change the graphical presention to a paper theme (Paper Mario) as well as a cel shaded theme (Wind Waker and Viewtiful Joe). The combat system will also be increased.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:38 pm
That ssb graphic changing sounds sweet…
How do you know about this?
April 29th, 2005 at 7:41 pm
why would they have a “viewtiful joe” style on SSB if that isnt even a nintendo game?
April 29th, 2005 at 7:42 pm
He said CEL SHADED and PAPER STYLE
thats sounds like a VERY nintendo thing to do
April 29th, 2005 at 7:44 pm
Bloodman: All I saw was early design drawings. I’m sure the game is farther into development by now, but I have no details on it. The Gamecube version is going to blow you away, and you won’t be thinking about a sequel for a long time.
Jesus: I have never seen the first picture before. The second picture looks like Avalon to me, but I’m just guessing. Here’s a link to a similar picture: http://n-sider.com/articleview.php?articleid=344&page=2
No, there aren’t any new handhelds in development, unless Nintendo started working on one after I left. The DS is going to be around for a long time. All it needs is good software; in japan, it is doing very well due to quality games like Kirby and Nintendogs.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:47 pm
Is there anything else about the rev you could say?
April 29th, 2005 at 7:47 pm
Aries, I have a very simple question: Is Revolution’s disc going to have enough gigabytes on it so that developers will not be as restricted as they were with the 1.5 GBs of the Gamecube discs? I know 1.5 GBs is quite a bit to work with, but it doesn’t amount to the 4.7 GBs that PS2 and XBox discs used.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:53 pm
Lets pretend for a minute that you are telling the truth. Based on what you may or may not know… In your opinion, will the revolution propel Nintendo back to the undisputed king of the consoles? or is it going to be a repeat of gamecube..and by that I mean Nintendo constantly being ridiculed..I will not go and say gamecube was a failure…I think it was better than the other 2.
April 29th, 2005 at 7:56 pm
How will they keep costs low, though?
And isnt it true that nintendo said that gc games will be useful for future portables in 1999?
April 29th, 2005 at 7:58 pm
Has Sega said anything, anything at all, even a breath on a new F-Zero for Revolution? I think the game would be an awsome seller for it.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:05 pm
Will be Pokemon be online? In my opinion, Pokemon is the only Nintendo game meant for online play.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:07 pm
So tell me will the Revolution feature any camera like features like the Eyetoy? Also since its backwards capatible I’m guessing the system will feature controller ports so we can use our old gamecube controllers am I correct to assume this? Last but not least will we be getting a microphone for wireless talk or will the Revolution controller feature a built in Mic?
April 29th, 2005 at 8:07 pm
Dam0: The wireless controller function was stolen from Nintendo; believe me on that. There is a reason why Nintendo rarely makes positive statements avout Microsoft. They don’t even think the Xbox 360 will be competitive.
During your time with Nintendo, did they catch an MS spy in their midst? lol
In all seriousness, wireless isn’t really something Nintendo “invented” I don’t think. MS has been playing with their bluetooth for a very, very long time….yes?
April 29th, 2005 at 8:08 pm
I really need to ask this, Aries, you claim that the next SSB will have a celshaded mode, it makes sense becuse of the Wind Waker, but Viewtiful Joe is not property of Nintendo, and yet you make it sound like it is. I really doubt that Capcom will lend its character, specially after the whole “capcom five” fiasco. so what, are you lying? Ive taking all this with a grain of salt to be honest, too good to be truth, but Im anticipating whatever Nintendo has to offer.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:09 pm
Oh just for fun
Revolution>>>>>>>>>>>>XBOX360 and PS3….X 1000
April 29th, 2005 at 8:09 pm
Some 12 year old kid: The Nintendo Revolution is going to suprse the entire gaming world. Many people don’t consider Nintendo to be a competitor in the console race, but I think they will be proven wrong. We will all see in 17 days.
DDBinks: Yes, the Revolution’s storage medium will store more than the Gamecube’s. I find it quite funny that the PSP’s UMD disks can hold more information than the Gamecube’s disk.
SnsoryOverload: That’s a hard question to answer. I am willing to bet that the Revolution will preform better than the Gamecube. That shouldn’t be hard to do. If the Gamecube had better 3rd party support as well as online play, it would have done better. The Revolution has online capabilities, and I don’t see why 3rd parties would not develop for it. But Sony and Microsoft are going to have very good products in the market as well. I would love to see all three systems hold about 30% of the market each, but I know that isn’t going to happen. Sony is going to win the “console wars”. I think Microsoft and Nintendo are going to fight for second place. Because I still think the Xbox 360 will not sell in Japan, I believe the Revolution will edge it out.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:12 pm
Thanks for sharing your information Brooke and Aries, it really is appreciated. I just wish it is true, but it’s hard to tell because of all the sad mimickers who will undoubtedly encounter a horrible death if they ever meet me in the dark alley >:( Do you guys have any opinion on the posted screenshots, is there any truth to them at all or are they just Google’d by some desperate, lonely soul? In any case they look good..
Also, do you have any clue as to how the console itself might look? I’ve tried to watch this thread closely but as it is about 19327346732 miles long as of now, I apologize if this has been discussed already. Thanks in advance,
Waltuo.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:14 pm
Well that pretty much sums up how “revolutionary” the revolution would be. If it truly is an amazing product..Id have expected it to take the world on my storm and give sony a very tough battle. You make it sound like all three of these systems are going to offer the same experience.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:16 pm
Jesus: I don’t have any information on prices right now. I also never heard this rumor about the Gamecube disks being used in future Gameboy games.
Bloodman: I have no information on a new game in the series. Personally, I have never liked F-Zero.
mantidor: That’s a fair statement. Just because it uses a similar art style doesn’t mean that Capcom is involved though. But who knows, that might change. Remember, Sonic was supposed to be in Mario Kart: Double Dash.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:18 pm
Aries, there have been a huge number of impersonators here for a while. To make sure we’re all on the same page, could you please give us a BRIEF summary of the information you’ve given us about the Revolution? I’ve been keeping notes on this, but half of it is contradictory and even more of it is probably untrue because it’s almost impossible to differentiate between real and fake Aries’.
You have a similar writing style to the original Aries, but all it takes is someone with who can emulate it well to mess this whole thing up, so PLEASE, before one of those people gets here, will you give us a summary of the correct information we’ve been given?
April 29th, 2005 at 8:22 pm
Is there going to be a new mario kart game. Mario Kart DD was ok, but the n64 build was more fun. I would like to see a new mario kart. They need battle mode maps like the ones in MK64.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:24 pm
Ares..I remember you have stated that the “revolutionary” feature has somehting to do with display..but you also say its something that makes games simple. Surely you can’t mean that graphics are going to become simpler looking. So I guess what im asking is…Does it involve the actual visuals..or the way its displayed.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:24 pm
Any chance of Nintendo using blue laser media, or holographic disc, for storage.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:25 pm
Another quick question I have, Aries, is about Square-Enix. You said they’re making at least one Revolution game at the moment. Now, are they going to make one game for the console and then focus on supporting Nintendo’s handhelds like they did this generation, or are they planning to support Nintendo’s console with more than one title (I hope they don’t handle the Revolution like they did the Gamecube, how they did Crytal Chronicles on it and then didn’t touch it after that.)
April 29th, 2005 at 8:26 pm
First of all, Aries, you work for SK. Just reminding people…
And about who will win: At first, I was phyched for Xbox 360. Why? Many of you dont realize something important. MS is behind Xbox, Ms doesnt like getting its ass handed to itself, and it certainly wont stop until they have Sony and Nintendo begging for mercy (Well, nintendo will likely be bought out). Microsoft is going to do everything in its power to secure franchises and devs this gen, and will continue doing so in future gens. They will end up winning the console wars, and I was ready to jump aboard eraly on. I didnt want any nintendo gimmicks, and sony products are simply garbage (eventhough I own a ps2 since it has the most software). This coming gen, I predicted Xbox to dominate. Why? Unlike Sega or Ninty, Xbox has become cool, and while it lacks the brand power of PS, it still wont be hard to get casuals on the XB360, especially if its affordable, looks good, has GTA, and has many great games and good advertising. Remeber. Power isnt THAT important, as we see from ps2 winning this gen. And, from what I see, XB360 WILL BE the ps2 of this coming gen. Released first, most games, most devs, advertising, cool factor, good looks… It just seems like it will get plenty of support from players and devs, and when PS3 comes along, it will have far less games and be far more expensive. Now, I originally expected nintendo to be obliterated this gen, but if Aries is true, I dont see it happeneing, which changes everything I originally thought. I used to think itd be 360:60% of american market, PS3: 50%, Rev: 10%. Now, it would probably be 360:40%, Rev:30%, PS3:30%
April 29th, 2005 at 8:26 pm
Waltuo: I have seen early designs of it, but nothing concrete; Nintendo has no doubt changed it many times.
SnsoryOverload: I wouldn’t say that. All three companies are going to reveal very good hardware, but they will be different. I think Microsoft is focusing on power over innovation. The Xbox 360, in my opinion, is just a beefed up Xbox. Sure, the Xbox Live function will be advanced, but it isn’t nearly as interesting as the Revolution’s online system. The software is going to make it appealing though. As you know already, it has alot of 3rd party support. With the PS3, Sony is mixing sheer power and innovation. They are going to suprise some people at E3 as well. The PS3 is far more ahead in development than many think.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:33 pm
In terms of just the consoles and technology aside from sales and business….Which of the 3 in your opinion will have the technological edge? My money would be on Nintendo because in every generation..their hardware is always a step above the rest, but it seems like your trying to hint that the ps3 is going to out-do the revolution.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:38 pm
doy doy doy! lets make a xbox360!
but sir we’ll lose money!
then let’s drink kool aid *says in kool-aid man voice* OH YEAH!
April 29th, 2005 at 8:41 pm
Aries, thanks for the info to date - I am a big Nintendo fan but usually buy all the consoles for their specific titles. I am really looking forward to Rev’s features no matter what they may be innovative or not. There is no doubt that it will be more powerful and be able to push more polys and be backwards compatible with the cube games that’s pretty much all I need
April 29th, 2005 at 8:43 pm
Any chance you could hint a bit more about this PS3 suprise then Aries?
April 29th, 2005 at 8:47 pm
GAH: Well, I have done more than one summary already, but I will do another brief one with regards to the Revolution’s features. It will include gyroscopic and pressure sensitive controls. It will also have a very advanced form of voice controls. The online system will be similar to the internet in the sense that it will allow users to chat and use message boards. Like Iwata said, it will provide free online play.
DDBinks: I would love to see Square Enix support the Revolution more, but I have no details. I only know of one project they have in development for the Revolution. It’s pretty obvious that they have chosen the DS over the PSP, so maybe they might do the same with the consoles.
I still don’t understand why they haven’t supported the Gamecube more this generation. Crytal Chronicles, despite being a poor game, sold very well.
bleed 4or me: No, I don’t know anything about a Revolution version of Mario Kart. At E3, Nintendo is going to show off Mario Kart DS, and that should hold you over until a Revolution version (or the GP version) comes out.
Jesus: Once again, I do not work for Silicon Knights. Matt from IGN has some information on them and what they are working on, and once he reveals it you wiil realize I don’t work for them.
In my opinion, Microsoft is rushing into the next generation too fast. I’m sure the Xbox 360 will be a good system, and I’m sure that it will preform well in the US. But once again Microsoft is going to wind up losing millions of dollars on production costs. Due to the power of each of the systems, I expect the next generation life cycle to be very long. This might not bode well for Microsoft if they do wind up failing in Japan and losing millions due to production costs.
April 29th, 2005 at 8:49 pm
Aries, I know you hate this, but two quick questions:
1. Will Square-Enix be showing off FFVII: Crisis Core at E3?
2. What do you know about the Square-Enix games for Revolution and PS3?
April 29th, 2005 at 8:51 pm
Actually, for that matter, what do you know about the PS3’s launch? Will there be a new MGS, Final Fantasy, and GTA as speculated?
April 29th, 2005 at 8:52 pm
I have one final question for you Aries: Has Nintendo been able to pursuade the companies that dropped Gamecube support to take up support for Revolution? (IE: Midway, Eidos, Lucasarts, etc.)
April 29th, 2005 at 8:57 pm
SnsoryOverload and crispy: Like I said, the PS3 is on a whole different plane when it comes to technological power. It won’t be close, unless of course Nintendo spends even more money on the Revolution within the next year or so. To use an analogy, the Revolution will allow gamers to shape the world and mold it in whatever image they want it. The PS3 will give gamers the ability to create the world. In the end, though, all three systems will be powerful. I mentioned that the Xbox 360 will be the “weakest” console, and I stand by that statement.
I don’t see why developers won’t just bet on Sony and continue to work with them. Although it will be costly, I’m sure developers will do this.
April 29th, 2005 at 9:04 pm
Aries said:
“I still don’t understand why they haven’t supported the Gamecube more this generation. Crytal Chronicles, despite being a poor game, sold very well.”
There was a much bigger audience on the Playstation 2. If FF:CC would have been on the PS2, it would have been scoffed at and ignored as the next Mystic Quest (yes, the game would have been possible without connectivity).
I think its pretty safe to assume that SquareEnix reached out to Nintendo for:
1) access for the portable market (GBA)
2) talent to keep the of Secret of Mana licence strong (Brownie Brown)
3) Yamauchi paid for the FF:CC
… and of course, Yamauchi’s leaving Nintendo ‘might’ have played some role.
Why then should SquareEnix have suddenly decided to pledge such strong support for the DS? And why then should they have interest in the Revolution?
There’s got to be some reasoning for it. Hopefully, its not another Nintendo bribe or negotiation, FF:CC style
April 29th, 2005 at 9:08 pm
Eric: I don’t have any information on that. Because I worked with Nintendo, I was able to gain information on what they were working on as well as what their 3rd party partners were working on. I have no information on Sony’s products. I know about the PS3, but I have little to no details on launch titles or their games list. If I was in charge of Rockstar, I would seriously consider moving to the Xbox 360 next generation. The PS3 isn’t coming out anytime soon, and GTA would be able to greatly propell the Xbox 360’s US sales. With respect to Metal Gear Solid 4, I havn’t heard any information that would make me 100% sure that it even will be a PS3 title. There is a possibility that it will be a Xbox 360 title in my opinion. I could be wrong though.
DDBinks: Midway received development kits at GDC, but I don’t know if they are currently working on Revolution games. I would guess that the developers you mentioned will stay with Sony and Microsodt until they see what Nintendo has up their sleeves at E3. After that, maybe they will be willing to develop games. I don’t see why not.
April 29th, 2005 at 9:11 pm
[...] tangled roots of discontent first suck soil, in my humble yet steel-trappish estimation? THIS. So, no more dancing. No more bullshit. No more passive acceptance. You want ‘games [...]
April 29th, 2005 at 9:12 pm
Thanks for answering my questions Aries, I appreciate it. I look forward to reading your future posts on here.
April 29th, 2005 at 9:13 pm
Thanks again Aries. But you didn’t answer my question about FFVII: Crisis Core. Will it be at E3? If you don’t know it’s alright, I’m just curious.
By the way, when E3 rolls around and it turns out you’re right, will you reveal your identity then? Just curious.
April 29th, 2005 at 9:14 pm
crispy: Those are some very interesting points. I think Square Enix knows what works and what doesn’t work, and they chose the DS because of Nintendo’s dominace of the market. But perhaps Yamauchi’s “retirement” will bring Square back into the console fold. I hope so.
April 29th, 2005 at 9:17 pm
Eric: I don’t know if it will be there. I don’t see why not though. I would guess the thing is a finished product by now.
At E3, I will not reveal myself. If everything goes as planned and we release a trailer at E3, I would consider giving a hint to you guys. If I do, you will recognize it.
This is my last post of the night. Talk to you later.
April 29th, 2005 at 9:23 pm
(yes, the game would have been possible without connectivity)
How? I’ve yet to read a logical argument as to how that game could be played without connectivity yet keep all of its functionality. Every argument would always boil down to “the game should just pause while I’m cycling through my menu.”
April 29th, 2005 at 9:34 pm
Aries is this correct: In terms of Graphic power it will be PS3 > Rev > X360
April 29th, 2005 at 9:40 pm
Well, I’m back, and I must ask, is there another forum where we all can discuss these things without little pasty faced buggers interupting us?
The Revolution will be good, and what Aries said about it not being Revolutionary is true. I was expecting something different, but the term evolution is quite correct.
Simple, simplicity. Imagine that in a complex game like Zelda or Metroid Prime. Imagine

April 29th, 2005 at 9:58 pm
I still thinks he works for SK. Read these hints
1)He talks about Sk having one of the best games of the show. How would he know that, but keep it under wraps?? Its his own game, thats why
2)Hes developing vectorman, a sega property. Sega is lending the IP to SK cuz they reached an agreement to do games together
3)He knows all this info cuz he worked with ninty. But, I’m not sure if he worked for them in the normal sense. He says that he quit because of personal issues, but then decided to come back because his present employer convinced him to. Either this is a cover story for the fact that SK was with NOA until recently, and Aries has been a part of SK for awhile, or maybe he worked for NOA and decided and left for personal reasons, but had friends in SK who convinced him to go to SK.
4)Dennis Dyack wrote on IGN Cube”See you guys soon” or something. Some shady things have been going on between MAtt and SK, I believe they are making a game for rev (vectorman)
April 29th, 2005 at 10:10 pm
Thanks for the info Aries.
April 29th, 2005 at 10:12 pm
ah looks like he went to bed. oh well, I’ll ask anyway…
hey Aries…what have you heard about the audio capabilities of the NRev? Will Nintendo finally take the plunge into Dolby Digital?
April 29th, 2005 at 10:20 pm
the article that detailed SKs partnership with SEGA stated that SK is working on a *new* franchise. vectorman isn’t new. here’s the link: http://cube.ign.com/articles/598/598290p1.html
any news on a PPU for the revolution Aries? and could you tell us maybe which room your company is situated at e3? (mayb not, cos then ppl will start guessing again)
April 29th, 2005 at 10:31 pm
Hey Aries, I know you’re afk, but I’m hoping you’ll be able to get to this some time this weekend.
You keep mentioning that “x” will be revealed in “y” days. Well, your ETA is pre-E3, why is that? Nintendo plans on blowing the lid off the Rev a day or two prior?
April 29th, 2005 at 10:37 pm
I agree with Jesus’ last post. I would go even so far as to say Aries is Dennis!!
But E3 is near and we will find out soon enough.
April 29th, 2005 at 10:48 pm
Microsoft stole the wireless controller function from Nintendo? Nintendo were not the first one release a wireless controller on the market, theres been wireless controllers on the market since the Atari 2600, Atari released a wireless controller in the early 80s.
And I still have a hard time believing anything Aries saying is true, I guess I have to wait until E3 to find out.
April 29th, 2005 at 10:49 pm
Heh. Dang, I was gonna ask if Capcom will consider releasing Breath of Fire back on the Nintendo console.. Revolution. As BoF5 was underrated. =x (Or a new RPG series from them all together.)
April 29th, 2005 at 10:53 pm
I believe Aries is telling the truth, now. The whole bank thing has been proven wrong, and it the way he speaks shows confidence and knowledge. No fanboy could be this clear and detailed, and go on for this long. He keeps saying well see in E3, and it sounds like he really means it
April 29th, 2005 at 11:39 pm
Dear Lord. Let it end!
Factor 5 and Silicon Knights are 100%, totally, definitely, absolutely, undeniably, and completely NOT working on Nintendo Revolution software.
April 29th, 2005 at 11:56 pm
I have a question. Why can’t all of you just wait until E3? I mean, honestly, it’s not that far away and you’ll have many of your questions answered ACCURATELY at that time. I don’t see why many of you are placing your faith in these bits of speculative dribble when the truth is so close. Everything here is pure speculation: guesses, hopes, “cool ideas”. Nintendo is a professional organization and they know what they’re doing, so please, just wait until E3 and take all of the “information” here with the proverbial grain of salt.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:21 am
SK dont’ work on revolution because they want power.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:37 am
For the people who are all worked up about the next Smash Bros having a celshaded mode similar to Viewtiful Joe:
Nintendo invented that style, not Capcom. Go look at the art for Wave Race: Blue Storm and 1080: Avelanche. Just because it looks like Viewtiful Joe doesn’t mean Capcom is involved. (Although Joe would make a fantastic SSB fighter, he’s getting his own Power Stone-like game for the Cube.) There’s no reason to get upset and claim Aries is a faker because of this.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:46 am
Aries is a faker in my opinion,too many incoherence.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:01 am
What are you talking about? Even if he is lying, inconsistancy is not what’ll give him away. So far the only thing he’s messed up on was saying the controller had a d-pad, then saying it didn’t. However, he said he meant that Nintendo would likely impliment one by the console’s release, so whatever. He’s been remarkably consistant. If he’s a fake, he probably has a word document will all his fake info in it so he doesn’t retread over what he’s already said. :p
April 30th, 2005 at 2:22 am
ATTENTION!
Am I on to something? I don’t know.
I see some people post the sentence ‘one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes’ here a lot…
Now, followed by this there are some people here who believe IGN know more. But they declined to post something about it today.
Go look at the Main Page. There’s one eye of Mario. Why would they make a picture of Mario’s eye for the Nintendo Minute? Posting a picture of Mario’s eye makes on sense…
One eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes???

Aries how can you misuse the three “theres” their… you meant to write there…. it totally discredited everything youve said “From what I saw during my time their as well as our game, it will be very capible.” i mean come on… and i dont mind if it was a brain fart it just got my second guessing… but oh well ive got about 2 weeks before everything will be cleared up for me.
April 30th, 2005 at 3:25 am
Hmmm…the problem I have with all this is why you won’t necessarily get tired of this when half the people in here don’t believe you, a quarter try to impersonate you and the rest want to believe but are somewhere inbetween. Fair enough, no one has to believe you like you’ve said time and time again, but what keeps you posting despite rejection, impersonation and just well…people not entirely sure? Aren’t you board of it all?
April 30th, 2005 at 3:40 am

April 30th, 2005 at 3:41 am
Foster: He’s doing it for the people who want to hear what he has to say. Same with when Chris Seavor of Rare’s Conker team posts on message boards to hype his games. Some people don’t believe it’s him, some do, some are inbetween. But since they’re good guys, they keep at it for the people who listen.
April 30th, 2005 at 3:56 am
Yes, I agree- either he’s a very sharp man with way too much time on his hands or he’s all legit. Like he’s said over and over though, “Wait till E3 and all will be revealed,” though not necessarily in his words. Hmm…also, the real Aeris is probably asleep right now so for anyone else that’s up here wanting to ask him questions, don’t bother. They’re probably all impersonators.

“The online system will be similar to the internet [...]”
So, does this confirm Nintendo’s online plans have nothing to do with the internet ?
I thought about it before, because a proprietary network would allow them to keep everything nice and clean the Nintendo way. It makes sense.
On the other hand, how would they set up something as huge, free of cost for the end user ?
Also, in that perspective, what about Europe ? Nintendo are doing very interesting stuff with their downloadable DS demos and WiFi relay points, but as allways it seems confined to Japan, and possibly the US in time. I understand there are perfectly good reasons behind this, but I couldn’t stand having only half of what the rest of the world would be granted with the Revolution.
Any thoughts about this ?
April 30th, 2005 at 4:01 am
Word Assassin: Ah- thank you for sharing that WA. Yes, I think the fact that he’d been in here for quite a long time was starting to get to me as well as others i’m sure. Actually- no doubt about that. Hmm… it’s a pity, It’s really what you all DO want to hear though isn’t it? But I mean, Nintendo actually listening to their fans? Still, they did it with Zelda. Ah! Dammit Aeris- you’ve a real smooth talker!
April 30th, 2005 at 4:03 am
Sorry- something I need to correct
“it’s a pity, It’s really what you all DO want to hear though isn’t it?”
Should be:
it’s a pity, It’s really what WE all DO want to hear though isn’t it?

So why Nintendo prepare the ground since months that the power is not important.

When did Nintnedo lay the ground and say power was not important. Point me to an artical where they Said that.

April 30th, 2005 at 6:14 am
Come on, Aries, will Pokemon be online for the GC?
Also, is the Revolution as “easy” to develop for as the GC? Is it the easiest to develop for among the three? Revolution has the same API as the GC but I’ve heard it will have more than one CPU, which is hard to program on an embedded system.
April 30th, 2005 at 6:15 am
ok lets take a step back here and look at whats actually happened recently! ok the holographic projection stuff came out, with it came a whole range of theories, ideas and even patents trying to prove that this was indeed the case. However then instantly we get this aries comes onto the scene and totally destroys the projection talk! And well done aries, whatever your trying to do, (and im not saying i dont believe you) you’re doing it very well indeed. ok so WA, foster and all other people who are genuinely nintendo fans and are on here to gain and share info, lets pull together and say everything that we know that is 100%, (even the slightest things) and see how it looks then?? whatever happens and is said further cant wait til E3 just hope all this chat doesn’t have an adverse affect on the real REVOLUTION

So, unless you are a normal user here (i haven’t seen you in this blog), that was a very POOR impersonation.

Will the Ninja Gaiden/Zelda crossover thing and the Retro shooter be at E3?
April 30th, 2005 at 6:25 am
Is it possible to have gamecube games online on the revolution?
Let me clerify. Since revolution is backwards compatible, is there a way the revolution can dump the data of a GC game onto a hard drive or memory card so that it can have full access to the data and make games that were unable to go online able to go online?
Also, do you know of a new character that will be in the new SSB for Revolution?
April 30th, 2005 at 6:30 am

April 30th, 2005 at 6:35 am

In 2004 Sony had $72 billion in revenue but had only about $800 million in profict. That includes all their divisions. Nintendo had $4 billion in revenue but had $400 million in profit. Nintendo is a pretty smart company. They aren’t going anywhere.
Aries, please don’t forget my question:

April 30th, 2005 at 6:49 am
Aries, Im confused in terms of sheer power where does the Revolution stand?
April 30th, 2005 at 7:09 am
It’s going to be PS3
April 30th, 2005 at 7:10 am
What the hell, half of my comment is missing.
Anyway, it’s going to be PS3
April 30th, 2005 at 7:12 am
So I can’t post that sign. Well, it’s going to be (from strongest to weakest): PS3, Revo, Xbox 360.
Aries already said so ^^
April 30th, 2005 at 7:17 am
well he said 360 is focousing on power and Revolution will offer a new way to play games, and in his opinion the 360 would be the weakest thats what im confused about also he said the specs dont matter?
April 30th, 2005 at 7:23 am
kook at ps2, ps2 was released first and its power is the weakest of the three consols. He did not say that ps3 will be the most powerful. Revolution could be the most powerful but we wont know for sure until pssosibly next year.
April 30th, 2005 at 7:30 am
3 processors?
“Yes, Xbox 360 will have three processors, each running at a claimed 3GHz. Yes, we’re talking 9GHz of total system juice. On top of that, each processor is capable of running two threads a piece, meaning that the console will be able to handle six instructions simultaneously. How difficult it will be to code for the system is unknown, though it seems quite obvious now that Microsoft’s XNA project was made for a very specific purpose”
http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/608/608394p3.html
More powerfull that 360? LOL
April 30th, 2005 at 7:40 am
It’s not a simple matter of adding up processor speeds when talking about multi-processor systems. One would think that a big and popular site like IGN would be well aware of this.
And why would it be impossible for Revolution to be more powerful than 360? I mean, it’ll most probably be released a year later, so their hardware setup could be one year ahead as well. Nintendo never said that power is not important, they merely said that it’s not the ONLY thing which console developers should focus on. Both IBM and ATI could easily develop processors which are higher clocked and/or have more features than those in the Xbox 360, which would give the Revolution it’s lead (even if it’s only a small margin).
And Aries DID say several times that the PS3 would be the most powerful of the three by far. He was really impressed with the technological capabilities of the hardware and clearly stated that the machine is in a whole different plane technology-wise.
April 30th, 2005 at 9:36 am
sony needs to die
April 30th, 2005 at 9:57 am
XBox 360 definitely wont use all 3 at the same time, since thats impossible. You cant just go 3×3=9, thats not how it works. ANd why the hell is there a dedicated PPU when they could just use one of the 3 processors to deal with the physics engine.
I still believe Aries works for SK, and I rly dont think hes making all this up. At this point, hes gone on for days and hasnt given up or rly contradicted himself, so I trust in him. The only thing that bothers me is when he said Rare, and why he cant prove himself. Anyway, I believe him.
And, back on which system is more powerful, it’s obvious itll be PS3>REv>xb360. Rev comes out a year later, it would be suicide to make it weaker than XB360. PS3 will be the most powerful since cell’s been in development for years and it supposed to be advanced.
And dont forget, power isnt everything. People seem to think XB360 will be like dreamcast, but this is a stupid analogy. Sega was non existant in the N64-PS1 era, while XBox has become very cool this gen, and it wont be hard at all to get casuals to buy the coming xbox. THE DC was marketed by a company of idiots that couldnt even beat nintendo. Xbox is being marketed by a company hell bent on killing sony and N, and will spend $$$$ on devs and games and marketing to make sure of this. Expect a GTA exclusive deal on 360… I like to compare 360-PS3 to ps1-n64. PS/Nintendo are/were leading share holders, and they lose to new comers who have weaker systems but far more games.

Go look at the Main Page. There’s one eye of Mario. Why would they make a picture of Mario’s eye for the Nintendo Minute? Posting a picture of Mario’s eye makes on sense…
One eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes??? ”
I think youre on to something. Even for yamauchi retiring they show a pic of two mario eyes. Watch this carefully

3 processors?
“Yes, Xbox 360 will have three processors, each running at a claimed 3GHz. Yes, we’re talking 9GHz of total system juice. On top of that, each processor is capable of running two threads a piece, meaning that the console will be able to handle six instructions simultaneously. How difficult it will be to code for the system is unknown, though it seems quite obvious now that Microsoft’s XNA project was made for a very specific purpose”

More powerfull that 360? LOL

Congrats imposter, you now know how to spell Dyack’s last name!!! By the way, you forgot a capital D.
Aries, do you know anything about the Zelda for the DS?

ATTENTION ARIES PLEASE READ THIS hey guys, look aries if you are out there watching this rite now, please cum on and comment. From what u hav sed so far, ur information seems to be very accurate and links in wit everything nintendo has confirmed thus far. I am a typical nintendo fan boy and i pray that u are not a fake. However, the fact that everything u hav sed sounds so good u could very easily be using our dreams against us. You could hav quite easily hav made all of this up by building on what we already no, if this is the case you r very very clever as wel as a little sad. Or perhaps u work 4 nintendo and are tryin to build hype for the REV. Or finnaly everything u hav sed is true, if so then u are a truly great person and i thank u. But i hav to ask if this is all true why are u doing it? wot made u choose this site?
In conclusion, if u are a fake then well done mate good job but please please jst cum out with it because if this is all lies u are seriously messing with all us true fans and its gone to far. Anyway cheers for ur time, al the best, and long live nintendo!!!! P.S SCOTLAND LOVES YOU !!!!!!!

Thank you for noticing my post. Half of all these posts is useless anyway. Maybe my observation was useless too, but I can’t help but see a connection between a guy saying ‘one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes’ the whole time here, and IGN posting pictures of eyes.
Eyes are going to be important…
April 30th, 2005 at 10:30 am
Hey, anyway, what if I’m right, they should post my name on all freaking message boards.

Thanks for enduring my nerdish alter ego.

hey moz a get wot ur sayin man, a saw it 2! but only thing is the following articles mean absolutely nothing, however it does seem odd that when those mysterious posts appeared that aries neva seems to comment on them?? mabi hes in cahoots wae IGN ?
W really need aries to get his butt on here
April 30th, 2005 at 10:40 am
Well I dont think we need Aries. He can say whatever he wants and we still dont know who the hell he is and if he’s telling anything close to the truth. In reality he just sparked discussion about the Revolution, and in reality we just have to wait.
But if the things he said were true, which means that we have to pay close attention to all media from now till E3 (which I’m doing always since hey, I’m part of the media), we can do our own research. So if we hear vague comments here about eyes, and IGN starts posting eyes which have nothing to do with the topic at hand, then yes, we are on to something. Maybe.
So yes, Aries could come here and tell us more, but in reality we won’t know if he’s to be trust till E3.

Oh my god, will this become reality?
April 30th, 2005 at 12:25 pm
I saw Brooke’s post on the main site. It seems even more obvious that the Brooke on this blog was a fake, and there won’t be a followup story on IGN. Once again, I would like to apologize to Brooke for the hackers and spammers that have flooded his site. For the most part, people on this blog have come here just to talk about the future or gaming and give their thoughts. A small minority have tried to hijack the conversation. As gamers, we all have a similar love that connects us. We all love games. Therefore we should all respect each other as well as Brooke’s site.
I looked over the posts that I missed while I was away and noticed another impersonator tried to discredit me. I hate to sound so redundant, but I can’t eamphasize this point enough. Whether you “agree” with me or not, keep your mind open and wait for E3. Everything I have said will be easier to understand in 16 days. I would also like to say once again that I do not work for Silicon Knights. Whenever Matt reveals what he saw in Canada, you will see that I don’t work for them.
April 30th, 2005 at 12:30 pm
Aries: Are Genius Sonority the development team behind Pokemon XD, since they did Colliseum, or are they work on Revolutin software at the moment?
April 30th, 2005 at 12:30 pm
What do you have to say about this whole “one eye, two eye…” thing, Aries
April 30th, 2005 at 12:33 pm
I meant to say “working”, up there, heh.
April 30th, 2005 at 12:39 pm
One eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes.
I READ somewhere that seeing is believing; it could be right in front of us and we don’t even realize it. If it all turns out to be a joke, I will be pretty SAD.
April 30th, 2005 at 12:40 pm
DDBinks: I don’t know who is developing it right now; I have no real details on the game. The art style is very similar to Colliseum, so you could be right. I seriously doubt it will support online play though.
Jesus: Like I said, pay attention to what’s going on in the gaming world as E3 gets closer. There was someone posting similar hints on this blog a couple days ago. I don’t know whether this is apart of Nintendo’s plan, but it seems likely to me. We’ll see in the coming weeks if IGN keeps this up.
April 30th, 2005 at 12:46 pm
Aries: “We’ll see in the coming weeks if IGN keeps this up.”
What are they keeping up? I don’t understand this comment.
April 30th, 2005 at 12:52 pm
Say Aeris, I actually got in this kind of late and had to do alot of catching up. However, I remember a “C monkey” metioning something about a “dual sided disk which rotates inside the revolution machine.” I`ve heard this before as well. I remember though, that you said you wouldn`t comment to much on this (if at all) as it might reveal the revolutionary aspects of the machine. Hmm…how is this? I`ve thought the whole “revolution” was centred around the controls- could you explain possibly explain this a little perhaps?
April 30th, 2005 at 12:54 pm
Also, I don’t know if you know this or not……but you mentioned earlier about a Waverace title for the Revolution.
However, I don’t know if it was you or one of the fakes, but you talked about how it is going to be truely amazing, the water effects. This leads to my question……if the what you said is true, would this lead you to believe that the Revolution is going to have a dedicated PPU in it? Whether you know for sure or not, is it possible Nintendo is going to include this in the Revolution?
April 30th, 2005 at 1:06 pm
Man Aries, you better not be lying, or your in for a world of e-hurt!
April 30th, 2005 at 1:06 pm
MrNintendo: Like I said, in the coming weeks you’re going to see a lot of information on Nintendo as well as the Revolution revealed through IGN and other sites. That’s all I’ll say.
Wave Race is in development for the Revolution. As I said, the water effects will be brilliant; Zelda has some amazing water effects as well, but they don’t come close to what the Revolution will be able to do. On a PPU being used, we’ll see. I don’t have the final product, so this could change in the future. I would think including one would be rather expensive.
Foster: I can’t answer that question. I don’t want to ruin the surpise. I will say that this feature will be used on the controller, and another revolutionary aspect will be involved with the storage medium.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:10 pm
“Foster: I can’t answer that question. I don’t want to ruin the surpise. I will say that this feature will be used on the controller, and another revolutionary aspect will be involved with the storage medium.”
What a sec Aries, I thought the “revolutionary aspect” was gonna be visual not with the controller?
…….
April 30th, 2005 at 1:10 pm
thank you so very much for all this aries, thank u
April 30th, 2005 at 1:12 pm
+1700 reponses,
It’s time to make an assessment.
Please ARIES,can you make a beautiful summary of all that you know in connection with what you know about games,console and developers who work on this machine.
I will put this summary on my site
and we will see at E3 if you said the verity.
Thank.
(Sorry my english is bad)
April 30th, 2005 at 1:14 pm
I’m kinda sold on the idea of using a wireless power supply, like Bloodman mentioned… (it was actually me that started that speculation over at NNow, lol)
It kinda sound possible though, some of those wireless power supplies used today are based on bluetooth technology that Nintendo uses in their Wavebird controller - it would not surprise me if Nintendo picked up the information to that wireless power technology through their bluetooth partner(s).
Anyway, I hope wireless power is the “revolutionary” part about the NRevs power supply to the controllers, but I understand if Aries will be like “No, comment” on that one, lol.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:15 pm
Aires could you please sum up the launch titles for the Rev? You mentioned a Wave Race, a Mario, new SSB, and I forget what else…
Also, what’s up with Animal Crossing 2?
April 30th, 2005 at 1:16 pm
One of the most interesting things Aries that you have said in this entire blog, to me personally, is the online part of the Revolution. Could you go into any more detail about this part? Or do you only know the basics?
Also, the voice communications sounds amazing, if you could, could you summarize this a bit, maybe add some more info, or tell us how, maybe not you as a developer and your game, but how other developers would use this new feature.
Personally, these two features, if done right, could give the Revolution a big advantage over the competition, even without the ‘revolutionary’ or ’simplicity’ part of system.
If what you say about the voice communication and online plan for Revolution is true, I don’t see how 3rd parties won’t support it.
Now that I am thinking of it, has anybody asked if you work for a 3rd party company? 2nd party maybe? Or can you not say?
April 30th, 2005 at 1:35 pm
Ah- fair enough Aeris, a good way to play.
Sheesh- all these questions though…is two weeks and a bit really that far off guys? Well, whatever. I`ve got a question myself for you please- yes, do you know how far along a GBA2 is? Hmmm… any word on this one?
April 30th, 2005 at 1:38 pm
Hey Moz,
you said ign is posting eyes. Do you have a link for that.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:44 pm
OJ: I don’t have much information on which games are going to be launch titles, but I’ll give a few guesses. Our game isn’t going to be a launch title. I would bet Wave Race, Super Smash Bros., Camelot’s RPG, Retro’s FPS, Madden, and Activision’s games (which will be Xbox 360 ports) will be released at launch. I’m also sure Nintendo will release the Mario game as well; I’m sure it’s farther in development by now. The other games I mentioned, including Square Enix’s project, were so early in development when I heard about them that I would guess they might not be released at launch. We’ll see.
MrNintendo: The online capabilities and the voice controls are my favorite aspects of the Nintendo Revolution. The online plan is very interesting from what I know right now. All the games will support their own message boards and chat rooms so that players can meet. Nintendo will also use it to communicate with gamers by sending previews and demos for future games to them.
The voice control system is very easy to use, and it is very effective. Nitntendo sent us headsets which allow us to use this function, so I’m sure headsets will be included in the final version when it arrives on the market. In our game, we are using it for many different functions. For instance, gamers will be able to transform their character into various vehicles by giving specific voice commands. I can’t think of any games out right now that compare to this level of command. Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory uses voice chat better than any game out right now in my opinion. I can’t imagine how amazing a next generation Splinter Cell would be using the Revolution’s capabilities.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:44 pm
Isn’t it funny how sometimes Aries says Rev will be more powerfull, but then he says MS is focusing on power more than Nintendo. He also said MS is spending more on each X360 than each nintendo is on each Rev. Seems like some times he said Rev is more powerfull, but other times he says X360 is more powerfull.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:50 pm
aries, do u hav any idea wen the rev might be released? And again any news on GBA2
April 30th, 2005 at 1:51 pm
Aries, earlier, you said you would give us a hint about the revolutionary feature of the revolution. You said it starts with s, and ends with a t, and that it has ten letters. Is this true, or was that an imposter that posted this?
April 30th, 2005 at 1:52 pm
he isn’t saying x360 is more powerful, he says revolution is. All he said is that 360 is gonna be powerful.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:56 pm
Foster: I don’t understand why people are so fixated on the “Game Boy Evolution”. The DS is going to be around for a very long time. I’m sure Nintendo has talked about the next Game Boy, and I would be willing to bet that they have some ideas written down. But I also bet that it won’t be discussed at E3 unless a journalist brings it up.
The DS is going to have a very goof E3 showing. The promise of free online play for Metroid Hunters, Pokemon, Animal Crossing, and Mario Kart is enough to convince me to keep my DS.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:57 pm
I have serious doubts about these online features Aries is alleging. A message board for EVERY game? What, are they merging with GameFAQS? Downloadable demos? That is not Nintendo like, nor do I think they will have a storage medium, hard drive or otherwise, to handle all of this.
This is all BS as far as I’m concerned. WAY too good to be true.
April 30th, 2005 at 1:58 pm
Aries: You mention the individual games with their own message boards and chat rooms, will the voice communication utilize this? You say words and the Revolution uses voice recognition to write down the words in the forums? Or will the Rev come with a keyboard?
If what you say about the voice communications abilities, I am pretty positive that the latter will be the case, the Revolution will recognize what you are saying and just write it down in your chat room or message board, or whatever place you need it to. Am I correct in this assumption?
April 30th, 2005 at 2:00 pm
Im more concerned about new characters in ssb.
Do you know any new characters that are gonna be in the new SSB for revolution?
April 30th, 2005 at 2:01 pm
Aries: What can you tell us about Silicon Knights? Have they completely abandon Nintendo? If they have, and are only working on XBOX 360 games, why did Matt go visit them, and what does he know that he is keeping from us? Wait, let me guess what you are going to say, just 16 more days and we will know right?
Also, can you mention anything else about these ‘acquisitions’ you mentioned earlier involving Nintendo.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:03 pm
Mike: Perhaps you misunderstood my statement. I stated that all Microsoft is doing is beefing up the original Xbox and making Xbox Live cooler. In my opinion, the Xbox 360 fucuses on power over innovation. Sony and Nintendo are mixing power and innovation, and both have systems more powerful than the Xbox 360.
¿¿¿: No, I have made it clear that I won’t give any hints on this function. I have never given any clues or hints on that.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:08 pm
also, when you say the controller will be normal (like, it will have buttons and control pad) will it have analog sticks?
April 30th, 2005 at 2:10 pm
Aries, can you tell us ANYTHING about waht the DS has in store for the future?
April 30th, 2005 at 2:10 pm
The voice recognition aspect is the one who is making me the more exceptic, and worried. English is not my main language, and Im not looking forward to give commands in english on a video game, I see it as something not very practical for Nintendo to do. do they plan to support all major languages? thats a bit unrealistic imo, and I dont think Nintendo will just forget about their consumers in Europe and Latin America… or will they?
April 30th, 2005 at 2:14 pm
If they translate games for you guys, they’re bound to translate the word bank that the voice recognition program uses.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:15 pm
I was gonna get the 360
but cause of u
im gettikng reveloution:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
April 30th, 2005 at 2:21 pm
they problem is that they do not translate it, Nintendo Europe is better at that, but here in Latin America not a single Nintendo game is translated, and it really saddens me to see games like Halo 2 with full translation while Nintendo has none, but well, I can understand english, so no problem, but actually speaking for voice commands will only alienate more anyone who wants the console here.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:22 pm
Bacon: No really. Nintendo is already doing this with the DS in Japan. You can download demos at certain spots in Japan. Meteos and Nintendogs have been used with this. You are right on the message boards that Nintendo has never done that before. But when you listen to what they have said this year, it isn’t hard to believe. They are trying to make online gaming include more of a community aspect. The DS is just the beginning of this plan.
MrNintendo: That’s a very good idea in my opinion. I don’t have much information on that though. I do know that the gyroscopic controls will be ued as a mouse to navigate the screen. They might also use the DS as a keyboard, but that is just my own speculation.
Mr.Nintendo: There were just too many differences between the companies. Matt has touched on this before. I felt Nintendo didn’t support Silicon Knights’ products enough. The marketing for The Twin Snakes was terrible, and Beyond Good and Evil just wasn’t hyped enough in my opinion. More details will be revealed later when Matt writes about his visit. Like he said, he saw some very interesting things there. At E3, they are going to have a very interesting game. They might actually have two there, but who knows. Read the article again, and you’ll get a hint on one of the projects.
I’m sure Silicon Knights will support Nintendo in the future. The game they will reveal at E3 will be an Xbox 360 title though. I do not work for them, but I know many people who work there due to both of our companies’ connections to Sega.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:27 pm
Aries, i have a couple of questions. First do you think the revolutionnary aspects of revolution will help expand all gendres of games as well as creating new ones?
Also, the NES was the first console to use the 2d as it id. The SNES was an amelioration. The N64 brought 3d. Gamecube was an amelioration. Do you think the Revolution will fit in this pattern and bring something really “new” to console gaming?
April 30th, 2005 at 2:28 pm
But how are these demos going to be stored? A demo for a next-gen game will be much larger than a DS game. Remember, this is a company that didn’t even have a memory card bigger than 1MB at the consoles launch.
And I’d like to state once again that SK is definitely NOT currently working on Revolution software.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:28 pm
I assume you mean Eternal Darkness where you said Beyond Good And Evil.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:28 pm
answere my questions:(
April 30th, 2005 at 2:30 pm
Will the revolutionary aspect be something like in a sci-fi movie, or is it something we’ve seen before, only not used in a video game?
BTW do you work for Namco or Sonic team?
April 30th, 2005 at 2:31 pm
Oh right, how will the Rev strore memory, with a hard drive or memory cards?
April 30th, 2005 at 2:31 pm
Hahahaha, Aries, you mean Eternal Darkness, right? :p
April 30th, 2005 at 2:32 pm
mantidor: English is only my second langauge as well, but try out Mario Party 6 (it’s actually lost of fun, nothing like MP4) that already uses voice commands and you’ll see it works anyway, even my little sister and her friends on about five managed to do it quite well when I told them what to say. It did happen that the characters performed other comamnds or thought I or the msaid something else at times, but when you think about it, learning how t osay a word properly is like learning a special trick or combo in a game perfectly.
And it will even help you learn spoken english better too, I’m actually looking forward to this without no worries.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:32 pm
Bloodman: Yes, it will have analog sticks. I mentioned this earlier.
ZeldaOwnsU: Your screen name should give you a hint. Also, the DS’ online system will be unvealed. I’m sure Nintendo has some other suprises as well. Metroid Hunters, Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, Pokemon Diamond, and some other games will be online for the DS. I can confirm that another Super Smash Brothers will be revealed as well. I would bet it will be online as well. I love my PSP, but I probally won’t be playing it during the holiday season due to some of the games I mentioned above.
mantidor: I wouldn’t worry about that at all. In the last few years, gaming has gotten bigger across many areas of Europe and South American. Nintendo isn’t going to forget about those people. You’ll probally have to wait awhile, but I’m positve the Revolution will support foreign languages.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:33 pm
“# DDBinks Says:

lol i hope he did
April 30th, 2005 at 2:39 pm
Aries, can you give us any details about what Pokemon Diamond’s graphic style will be like? I was hoping it’d be full 3d like Pokemon Coliseum.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:40 pm
Instead of you telling him what “i assume you mean…..”. Let him realize his own mistakes. As we all know BGE was done be ubisoft.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:42 pm
Any info on new characters in SSB? Or did you answere that already?
April 30th, 2005 at 2:43 pm
I don’t doubt it was just a simple typo.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:47 pm
No name: The gyroscopic and voice controls remind me of sci fi movies. For instance, in I Robot cars were able to automatically drive in cruise control if the driver “told” it to. Obviously, with the gyroscopic controls, Minority Report would be an example. The “revolutionary” aspect is pretty ordinary in my opinion. It makes games simple, but it’s something everyone is familiar with. A good example would be the DS’ touch screen. If someone came up to you and told you that Nintendo would make a handhelp with two screens in 1993, you probally wouldn’t believe them. Now, what if the person gave you a hint that the second screen would use a “revolutionary” function that you would automatically be familiar with? You would never guess that it would be a touch screen. Everyone knows how to “doodle” on paper, and Nintendo took that simple idea and added on to it to create the DS.
No name: A few months ago, some rumors came out that Nintendo was working on two different versions of the Revolution. One would have a hard drive, while the other wouldn’t. This rumor was almost correct. Nintendo is still throwing the idea around of using a hard drive. I hope the final version has one, because it would be so much easier to use than a bunch of memory cards.
Bacon: You’re right, they aren’ working on the Revolution right now. I still believe that they will eventually.
April 30th, 2005 at 2:48 pm
Four eyes could only be a reference to people with glasses i.e. Hiroshi Yamuchi, Hideo Kojima, Bill Gates, Dennis Dyak or 3D glasses.
I do not necessarily believe the above; am just adding to the speculation fire
April 30th, 2005 at 2:48 pm
Theres gonna be an ssb on DS? How will this use the ds functions. Fighting games jsut dont seem good on the ds
April 30th, 2005 at 2:50 pm
Aries, from what you have said above, you have led me to believe that there is going to be another Super Smash Bros. game revealed at E3, but this time, on the DS. Do you know if it will come out later this year? Or is it going to be released next year?
April 30th, 2005 at 2:55 pm
this is all very intresting. Either this guy has been planing this for months or… its true. i hope its the latter. if so i would buy the rev in a second.
April 30th, 2005 at 3:00 pm
Aries, any info on the possiblity of DVD capabilites?
Sorry if this was asked already, but it would take a week to go back and read every post you’ve made by now.

The only Revolutionary aspect I can think of is touching the game. That has never been used before.
Is that somewhat close, Aries?
April 30th, 2005 at 3:03 pm
ZeldaOwnsU: That’s a very interesting question. When I was at Nintendo, I heard that they were still deciding on that. I’m sure it will look better than the GBA versions, but the style was up in the air. This is the same thing that happened with the Gamecube Pokemon. I would like to see it cel shaded.
Bloodman: It will include some different characters. Some of the older characters will will not be in this one; Falco isn’t going to be in it. The only new characters I have heard about are Krystal (from Star Fox) and Pit (from Kid Icarus). The inclusion of Pit is very interesting to me. Would Nintendo actually bring back a series this old? We’ll see. I have no information on a new game in the series though.
This is my last post of the day. Sunday will be my last day on this blog for awhile, since I will have to go back to work.
April 30th, 2005 at 3:05 pm
I wish the Revolution would play DVDs, but I doubt it. Although Nintendo has embraced online, so a DVD player would put it up there with the abilities that Sony and Microsoft add on.
April 30th, 2005 at 3:05 pm
Aries, can you please answer the following question:
http://brokensaints.com/blog/?p=48#comment-2139
As you can see, I am more interested in the development aspect of consoles. I’m doing home-brew GBA development and am having lots of fun.
April 30th, 2005 at 3:09 pm
They aren’t taking out Sheik are they?!?!?!?
April 30th, 2005 at 3:16 pm
They BETTER add Wario!!!!!!
April 30th, 2005 at 3:18 pm
Aries: So the ‘revolutionary’ part of the Revolution is simple and ordinary. And you go on to mention the touch screen on the DS as an example of something ordinary (touch screen) being used to simplify gameplay.
But why won’t you talk about the storage medium? How is this going to simplify gameplay, if the lasers really do revolve around the disc, the only thing you are going to get is faster load times. I don’t know how this improves or simplifies gameplay. And to say the least, it isn’t very ordinary.
Can you mention anything about that crazy patent Nintendo had awhile back, which Brooke used as a reason the Rev will be using true 3D, will this patent, whatever it is, I don’t fully understand it play a role in the way developers make Rev games, making the development process easier and faster?
You keep mentioning the ‘revolution’ part of the Rev will simplify things and is ordinary. My brain is going crazy trying to think of what it could be, I am going to go nuts if you don’t give us a little something. Or do you not even know?
April 30th, 2005 at 3:42 pm
“I have heard about are Krystal (from Star Fox) and Pit (from Kid Icarus).”
Wow- I threw rogether a theoretical list of 8 possible new Smash Bros yesterday- The ones I figured would happen were: Wario, Toad, Diddy Kong, Krystal, Pit, Ridley, Charizard, and Isaac (Golden Sun). Hearing two of them “confirmed” is interesting.
I personally think it would be Hilarious if “Captain N the Game Master” was unlockable, but I doubt the Japanese audience would know who he is.
“The inclusion of Pit is very interesting to me. Would Nintendo actually bring back a series this old?”
Capcom had a game in development for Gamecube called “Dead Phoenix”, slated of Summer 2003, which featured a flame-winged male protagonist with a gun shooting mythical monsters. Then the game dropped off the radar- but Capcom refuses to call it cancelled, and when IGN directly asked them about it, they had some strange responses. IGN theorized that Nintendo may have given them the Kid Icarus liscence, resulting in it’s delay as it gets an overhaul.
“But how are these demos going to be stored? A demo for a next-gen game will be much larger than a DS game. Remember, this is a company that didn’t even have a memory card bigger than 1MB at the consoles launch.”
Why would they need to be stored? If they’re anything like Nintendo’s typical demos, there’s about 20 minutes of Gameplay involved. I’d imagine they’d make them easy to access, and just streamed.
“But why won’t you talk about the storage medium? How is this going to simplify gameplay, if the lasers really do revolve around the disc, the only thing you are going to get is faster load times. I don’t know how this improves or simplifies gameplay. And to say the least, it isn’t very ordinary.”
Just something I thought of- what if the game isn’t stored on both sides? The second side could be rewriteable, and store such things as saves and downloadable extras. Imagine being able to bring your game disk over a friend’s house, and have your save (no need for a memory card) and extra maps (taht would normally be kept on the hard drive) all on one disk?
April 30th, 2005 at 4:10 pm
Thanks for all the info Aries, great insight.
As a game developer I am very confident you are legit.
Im wondering, are there two different Marios in development?
Theres the footage we all saw at E3 of what looked like a side scroller. Then there is the Mario 128 talk.
Im a big fan of the old days so Im hoping they do have a great side scroller planned, but beefing up Mario 64 would be great too.
April 30th, 2005 at 4:13 pm
N-Zero: I would love that idea about being re-writable. The top side could store saves/demos/whatever, and the bottom side is the game.
However, that would make the storage medium very small capacity wise when compared to that of XBOX and PS3.
Also, one thing I hate about double sided CDs is they always get scratched or something, I would love to see a UMD or whatever it is called, that the PSP uses, of course, it would be larger.
April 30th, 2005 at 4:17 pm
“Im wondering, are there two different Marios in development?
Theres the footage we all saw at E3 of what looked like a side scroller. Then there is the Mario 128 talk. ”
I believe Aries mentioned that there’s three- Mario 128, Mario Revolution, and Mario DS (Which is the sidescroller you were referring to)
April 30th, 2005 at 4:26 pm
Aries, your OPPOSITE and your NEMESIS is here.
Tell me, why do you revolve around the V-A-G-U-E? Do you think you’re clever recycling the same old stuff over and over? You haven’t brought up anything original, infact you expose yourself! Heres how. You MISTAKINGLY keep referring to your old job at Nintendo…I do agree that giving a building description won’t prove or disprove anything, HOWEVER, what you CAN DO, is give a run down on specifics of what you PREVIOUSLY have worked on or accomplished. You can go as far as give specifics that would sound like greek to most people, but would give a feeling what you say is legit. AGAIN, you revolve around the VAGUE.
You have ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSE, ARIES, I believe you to be a TOTAL FRAUD AND I AM CALLING YOU OUT, any Aries I know WILL NOT refuse a challenge. I challenge you to randomly talk about what you worked on, GIVE SPECIFICS, GIVE DETAIL, basically, PROVE YOURSELF!
FROM THIS POINT ON, I would rather you PROVE YOURSELF THAN GIVE OFF ANY MORE INFORMATION. Your VALIDITY is more important than the CONTENT right now, because upon reading a lot of these posts, YOU SEEM TO BE AFFECTING PEOPLES LIVES GREATLY, BUILDING ANXIETY that is not necessarily the DESIRED kind. MESSING WITH PEOPLE IS NOT COOL, AND YOU WILL PAY IF YOU DONT REPENT, life is NOT A JOKE.
THE BALLS ON YOUR COURT, DONT BE A COWARD
April 30th, 2005 at 4:27 pm
Aries,
From what you know, which will kick more ass: The Retro FPS or Perfect Dark Zero? Also, will the Retro FPS be shown at E3?
April 30th, 2005 at 4:57 pm
IM A FLABBERIN IDIOT THAT IS GAY
April 30th, 2005 at 4:58 pm
i still think, just the voice commands are gonna be a revolution, imagine a zelda where you ASK QUESTIONS to the npc’s
April 30th, 2005 at 4:58 pm
LALLALALALALLALAALLALLA
April 30th, 2005 at 4:58 pm
Libra, even if he was a fake i doubt he would even try to give specifics. If he were real, he wouldn’t because what he is telling us is practically illigal. An employ cant go around telling people what they are secretely sopposed to be working on. So if he were to say what he did do before and what he worked on it would be giving to much about himself and would probably get him caught.
Anyway, i was super hyped but now, since he cant tell more than he has already, it has gotten boring even though the idea is still kick ass (I was a bit dissapointed when he said characters would be take from SSB and still am).
And if he was fake I doubt he would come out and say it unless he suddenly felt super horrible and hated himself for doing what he did. And even if he did most people and probably me too would say it was an imposter thanks to some ass hats out there.
April 30th, 2005 at 5:19 pm
Aries,
1. What have you heard about the audio capabilities of the NRev? Will Nintendo finally take the plunge into Dolby Digital?
2. Will we be able to use our GameCube memory cards for the backwards compatibility? Or will there be no way to transfer our older saved data to the new storage medium?
April 30th, 2005 at 5:38 pm
Maybe for the backwards compatability they’ll allow you to use both GC memory cards and NR memory cards, sort of like what Sony did with the PlayStation 2 (if any of you actually don’t have one, you can use memory cards from the PS and the PS2, but you can only save PS games on PS memory cards and PS2 games on PS2 memory cards).
April 30th, 2005 at 5:40 pm
Aries,
I’m going to throw out a couple more questions and hope you check them tomorrow since it will be your last day here.
3. Aside from gyroscopic aiming, is there anything else you can tell us about Retro’s new FPS IP? Were you the one who said something about the controllers heating up in your hands?
4. You include Sony when you use the word “innovative”, not just Nintendo. Can you elaborate on some of the new innovative features of the PS3 if you know any? And do you feel Revolution will include many more innovative features? Will PS3 have wireless controllers also?
5. Were you the one who mentioned an all new original IP coming from both Eiji Aounoma and Hideo Kojima which would be a futuristic 3rd person action game?
6. Will the LAN capabilities of games like Mario Kart: Double Dash still work on the NRev? Will they be able to transmit over the wifi to other NRev’s and continued tunneling of that game? Will Phantasy Star Online work on the NRev?
April 30th, 2005 at 5:42 pm
Aries you punk, I got Libra’s back, you better step up to the plate!
April 30th, 2005 at 5:42 pm
Aries,
7. Will it be possible to play GameCube games that use the bongo drums on the NRev?
April 30th, 2005 at 5:47 pm
Aries,
8. This sort of trails back to question #1. Will the Dolby Pro Logic II feature of some GameCube games still be compatible with the NRev?
April 30th, 2005 at 5:47 pm
i know im stupid but whats and IP.
I really hope he’s not lying. An IGN on the revs hompage just sounds too cool.
April 30th, 2005 at 5:53 pm
IP = Intellectual Property. Games are an intellectual property. I’m just asking if he knows anything about the new games and if he was the one who mentioned them previously.
April 30th, 2005 at 6:28 pm
Aries how advanced will the voice/microphone commands be able to go? Such as playing a sqaud game, telling the sniper to shoot the guy in the bushes to the left or telling bravo team to set perimiter up near the broken down truck. Can the commands be made as specific as that or are the developers limited in only using certain phrases such as- form on me and retreat? Will the gyro controls help make the Rev. an RTS friendly console? Also aren’t you violated a NDA by saying this stuff, thanks in advance for your reply.
April 30th, 2005 at 6:38 pm
Will revolution feature DVI or HDMI outputs? Will PS3 feature anyone of these two.
April 30th, 2005 at 6:43 pm
hmm, anyone think there’s a possibility that everything Aries is saying is true, along with the fact that there might still be true 3d? I mean, he said he left nintendo a while ago, so maybe it was incorporated after he left, or only a few nintendo higher-ups knew about it. who knows. meh, nevermind, I know nothing about how the videogame industry works..
on another note, the ssb for the DS sounds exciting. I can’t wait to play it online…. also, I think it’s great if this means Metroid has confirmed online support. It’d make sence, since it seems like it’s been delayed..
April 30th, 2005 at 6:56 pm
::::::::!!!!!!!Question!!!!!!!!!: Will Revotutions interface have a fully ccustomizeable like the 360’s interface where you get to select interest, likes, color formats, etc?
April 30th, 2005 at 7:00 pm
Placemarker (makes it easier to Ctrl+F the next time I want to catch up).
April 30th, 2005 at 7:24 pm
i reckon its possible he’s telling the truth. alot of what he’s saying is almost-official any way. and since nintendo have been saying that they don’t regard the xbox 360 as competition, the revolution is more than likely more powerful
i also trust him on the voice-commands. i mean, nintendogs uses this feature insanely well, and its a great way to start getting ppl thinking about it.
DS Smash Bros? definantly. one of the best multiplayer games ever, and with no need for cables it’ll b awesome…i hope it can support 8 players and doesn’t use the touch screen in-game except mayb for panning around in the pause screen
aries: i notice you keep mentioning minority report in relation to the gyroscope and that the revolutionary feature is something we use often but its never been applied to gaming. and u mentioned doodling with the touch screen about the DS…what i’m getting at is: will hand gestures be a big part of the control system?
April 30th, 2005 at 7:27 pm
Aeris, you have gave a lot of info on the Revolution, but what about future Gamecube games? The only one that looks awesome is Zelda, and Fire Emblem looks okay. Which ones do you know about that haven’t been announced, and which games in development are going to kickass?
April 30th, 2005 at 7:34 pm
SoVos20: I’m pretty sure Iwata stated that the revolution would have dvi or monitor output at sometime
Aries, just a couple of quick questions if you get the time when you make your comeback.
Was it the real you who posted the specs of the Revolution? if not can you let slip whether they were at all accurate or complete bull. (the stuff about a PPU, SLI gfx chip 4 core CPU etc)
Do you know if the revolution will have any other multimedia functions? we know it will have wireless built in, but could we for instance stream music from a computer and have the revolution pick it up? Will it work as a dvd player? can the harddrive be accessed via the wireless to transfer content to it from a home PC?
Also, Reggie is on record as stating that the revolution WILL be a sexy machine. From what you have seen of it, would you agree? And could you tell us a little about the machines design/styling? … or even the logo perhaps? I’m really interested in seeing what kind of logo Nintendo come out with, since theyre the only one of the big 3 who ever seem to put any thought into cool and original logos.
Also regarding the wireless, how many simultaneous joypads will the Revo be able to detect and use in games. Im just imaginng SSB with 8, 12 or even 16 people… madness!
April 30th, 2005 at 7:34 pm
Aries, on IGN, there is an article about Hiroshi retireing, it got a picture of Mario’s two eyes, so I suddenly got the idea that there must be some clue there. In that article it said something about Hiroshi not accepting his retirement founds because “they would be better used on the future of the company”.
All of us who have some knowledge about Nintendo know Nintendo is a economically strong company so this sounded pretty weird on me, then I thought about your comment about “finally Nintendo is throwing their money around” or something like that (don’t remember your exact words, if it was not said by an imposter that is).
My question is: is the Revolution a very huge investment by Nintendo?
(the question sounds stupid, but it got a purpose - Hint : RevolutionMINI & RevolutionMEGA)
Atleast say if I make sense to you or not, lol…
April 30th, 2005 at 7:49 pm
If its true, nintendo has a bright future. On the evil GS system wars boards, most of the “sheep” haters said theyd buy this before the otehr consoles. Hardcores would love the system, and casuals would LOVE to play madden with voice commands.
And Aries: 1) Do you have any details on SSB for DS
2) Can the gyros be used in the opposite way? Lets say you are driving a car, can the controller turn on its own, or if you crash, does it jolt forward?
April 30th, 2005 at 8:39 pm
Are we talking pork or chicken gyros here?
April 30th, 2005 at 8:50 pm
LOL
April 30th, 2005 at 8:54 pm
jonnyjon: Aries never mentioned any specs, that was an imposter. All we know is that NRev will be more powerful than Xbox 360, but slightly underneith PS3. In the next-generation I don’t think specs will matter much…All three systems will be able to produce Unreal Engine 3.0 quality visuals I’d be willing to bet. Even this gen proved that the specs weren’t all that important in some cases. There are some games on PS2 like Naughty Dog’s titles which look better than many 3rd party games on Xbox.
btw, If you CTRL + F this thread, and read everything carefully, it’s pretty easy to see who is the fake Aries and who is the real one. The real one will always make an effort to quote who was spewing crap under his alias.
April 30th, 2005 at 9:13 pm
FOR THE IDIOTS WHO THINK THE XBOX 360 IS SUPER POWERFUL:
It’s NOT.
Listen carefully to what I am about to exlain.
The XBox 360 has, to quote:
“Three PowerPC cores running at 3 GHz, capable of two instructions per clock cycle”
Instructions Per Clock cycle = IPC
So you know, one clock cycle = 1 Hz
Now, firstly, these are NOT standard G5’s. They’re PowerPC based, but NOT G5’s.
Now lets analyze real quick.
2 instructions per clock cycle? 2 IPC? Guess what- a Pentium 4 gets 6 IPC. A normal G5 gets even more.
So while it has Three 3 GHz processors (add them together for an equivilant 9 GHz but when you factor in multiprocessor overheads its a LOT less), but each one is less than one THIRD the power of a normal G5.
3×3 divided by 3 = 3.
So just by raw numbers, its slower than a 3 GHz G5. Factor in SMP overheads and it’s about equivilant to a 2.5 GHz G5. That is *NOT* super powerful. It’s reasonable.
Get it people? The XBox 360 has three processors with VERY high clock speed and VERY weak calculations per clock cycle (and no, GHz is NOT a measurement of speed, its a measurement of clock cycles per second, rather than calculations per second), so as a result it gets average performance.
The rumored specs of the Revolution are 2.7 GHz G5 or dual 1.8 G5, so either of those would outperform it.
FURTHERMORE, the graphics card is more important than the processor, and the Revolution will have 6 months to a year to improve on whatever the XBox 360 has.
April 30th, 2005 at 9:18 pm
Im not famliiar with most of this, but what can you say of ps3’s power?
April 30th, 2005 at 9:25 pm
Just a very horrible guess but the revolution might make smell-o-vision a reality. As far a non joke is concerned the revolution might use multiple disk ports and read double sided double layered mini HD-DVDs. Think outside the GameCube.
April 30th, 2005 at 9:27 pm
Okay now that I got my little rant over with…
I have been researching every single scrap of data I can find on the next generation consoles, searching through every rumor available for a shred of truth.
So far, Aries’ seems to be the most accurate of all of them, and seems to fit all the facts, agree with most of the major insider rumors, and sound realistic.
Personally, I believe Aries.
Oh, and about the “Mario Eye” thing on IGN. The Mario eye shown was the Mario eye from the Super Smash Bros Melee Intro movie. Matt has used it numerous times.
April 30th, 2005 at 9:29 pm
Thanks for clearing that up paladin!
According to gamespy, the following are shots from an upcoming PS3 game:
http://gamesradar.msn.co.uk/news/default.asp?pagetypeid=2&articleid=35592&subsectionid=1585
Is it just me or do these graphics look seriously poor compared to what the 360 can muster up? They look pretty much like doom 3 to me. Also my friend linked me to this site of a developer called steelmonkeys with a game called “2 days to vegas” and the graphics look simply astounding, far better then anything this generation can handle, despite the fact the site states that the games in development for the current generation of consoles. Im guessing this will be a cross platform next-gen title, apparantly its GTA style aswell so hopefully it plays as good as it looks!

Well, the fact that Aries is in agreement with rumors could mean its a fanboy who scrapped together all of em into one neat package.
But, he is very detailed, confident, and seems to say “We will all see at E3″ many times. It doesnt sound like a hoax
April 30th, 2005 at 9:34 pm
Even if it is a hoax we owe Aries some applause for breaking the monotony, and doing it well.
April 30th, 2005 at 9:39 pm
“Well, the fact that Aries is in agreement with rumors could mean its a fanboy who scrapped together all of em into one neat package.
But, he is very detailed, confident, and seems to say “We will all see at E3″ many times. It doesnt sound like a hoax ”
Well it is only in agreement with certain rumors…for example, he disagrees with the “no A and B buttons” rumor. He disagrees with the touchscreen rumor.
However certain things he pointed out have little to do with the rumors:
For example, none of the online functionality he spoke of has even been hinted at, and in fact, ANY rumors on Revolution online functionality are very scarce.
While he could have made up the online stuff, and picked and chose the best sounding rumors, the thing that really clinched me was the information he gave on developers.
Most of the developers he listed have been confirmed to have received dev kits or to be working on Revolution games recently. Some of them were actually confirmed AFTER he posted.
That really impressed me, so unless he works for the press and knows what is going to be posted on news sites before it happens (a very real possibility!), or he’s REALLY good and mixing fact and fiction to sound realistic, I suspect he’s the real deal.
April 30th, 2005 at 9:53 pm
“Im not famliiar with most of this, but what can you say of ps3’s power?”
That’s a toughie. I’ve looked over the Cell processor and its interesting and very nice, but VASTLY overhyped.
For example, looking on the internet you’ll see references to the PS3 being 9 core 4.6 GHz. Which is, well, insane. Too insane.
That processor right there was the specs released by IBM. People have assumed its in the PS3, but in fact, that was the specs for the high end Cell processor designed to go into SERVERS. It’s probably WAY more powerful than the one in the PS3.
Okay, so a simplified analysis of that Cell right there.
The 9 cores do not, in fact, run at 4.6 GHz. Only ONE of the processors does- the primary processor. It’s a PowerPC or POWER-based processor, whichever IBM/Sony want to use (PowerPC is a POWER derivative, POWER is for servers, PowerPC for desktop levels).
The other 8 cores are not actually normal processors. They’re kinda like GPU’s, being optimized to do certain types of work very, very well. Namely, floating point calculations. They’re called APU’s.
So basicly the Cell processor mentioned in the tech sheets is one 4.6 GHz PowerPC processor with 8 vector processors attached to it.
So it is REALLY good at floating point calculations, but if you ask it to do integer calculations the extra 8 processors are absolutely useless.
The things a processor does in a console, namely physics and AI calculations primarily, rely on floating point calculations so this is very useful. So unless Nintendo uses a PPU, I’d say Sony’s system will have the capacity for the best physics.
Now remember though, the PS3 processor won’t be near as big as the one cited above. It’ll be a lower clock speed (no idea what the GHz will be) on the primary processor, and fewer APU’s (4 cores? 2?).
I simplified a lot here though, just FYI.
The Cell WON’T increase framerate or graphics though.
So I’d say that the PS3 will have the best *processor*.
As for graphics card, it depends on the gap between the systems launch.
If the time is less than a month, its possible the extra money they put into the more expensive Cell processor will mean the PS3 could have a weaker GPU actually.
HOWEVER the Revolution will probably launch several months earlier, in which case…
PS3 has a slightly better graphics card than the Revolution, and considerably better processor. Visuals will look almost the same (like the difference with the GameCube and XBox), though the PS3 might have visibly better physics or more AI allowed on the screen at once or something.
PS3 > Revolution > XBox 360
Neither is leaps and bounds over the other.
I would estimate that the Rev is slightly better in both graphics and processing over the XBox 360, and PS3 is slightly better in graphics and considerably better in processor than the NR.
April 30th, 2005 at 9:55 pm
Of course he’s the real deal. He has a “Greek” name.
April 30th, 2005 at 10:05 pm
Thx for the info, Praxis
Now I can tell all those Sony loving fools that ps2 ISNT a super computer.
In the end, it will fall, like all consoles, to the pc. I am a pc gamer, so Im happy
April 30th, 2005 at 10:21 pm
I mean ps3- ps3 ISNT a super computer
April 30th, 2005 at 10:29 pm
Sure, np. If you can’t tell yet, I’m a hardware nerd
In fact, I’m just plain a nerd…
The PS3’s processor IS impressively fast in specific tasks that are heavy on floating point calculations (it wouldn’t be that useful in your desktop PC for example). But it’s not 100x more powerful than anything existing currently like Sony fanboys will have you believe
It’s just highly optimized.
Anyway, yeah, the PS3 will have a graphics card similar to the rest of them (though slightly newer) so visually it won’t be significantly better except in the specs.
The reason I’m really impressed with next gen hardware is that all the next generation hardware will come out in time for the next generation graphics cards. Even the XBox 360. You know, Geforce 7, ATi R500 (the X*** cards are R400)…assuming the leap is as big as the Geforce FX to the Geforce 6 series, the graphics should be astounding on all three systems.
The current top end cards like the Radeon X800 are already 100x more powerful than the PS2’s graphics cards if the numbers I’ve seen are to be believed (PS2 is capable of 7 million polygons per second, X800 capable of 750 million polygons per second, feel free to correct me if the numbers I read are incorrect). No game really pushes it to the max. The next generation cards? woooow…. I’m drooling already
As for PC gaming: I stick to PC for RTS and FPS (keyboard and mouse all the way) because I HATE dual joysticks, but if the Revolution really does have gyroscopic control (gyroscopic mice, remember?) I may have to switch to the Revolution for FPS
I love hacking and modding my games on the PC though. Thats a big bonus.
But platformers and adventure (Metroid Prime, Zelda, etc) I would play on a console any day.
April 30th, 2005 at 10:31 pm
I love Nintendo. I really do. From a very young age, I initiated myself into the Nintendo “family.” I would love to see Nintendo reclaim its throne and reign as the definition of video games once again (when every gaming console was called a Nintendo, even if it was really a Sega). However, I’m not one to put blind faith into wishful thinking just to fool myself.
I’m not expressing an opinion on whether or not Aries is a fraud, I’m merely remaining objective about the whole situation. I remember how the pre-Gamecube rumors sounded… Some of the rumors made the “Dolphin” sound like it was going to be the be-all and end-all of video game consoles, like some sort of machine sprung from another, more technologically advanced dimension. Of course, that wasn’t the case. All of the current rumors, just as with the Dolphin, make the Revolution sound too good to be true. I really hope it does all come to be true, in its stated entirety. If it doesn’t come true, I probably won’t be in a state of disbelief, but I will be let down.
I’m hoping that Nintendo’s phase of trial-and-error is done, and that they’ve finally got their formula for perfection down, and they’re going to deliver. Like all of you, I can only wait.

Panasonic developed the storage media for the GC, and Panasonic is also a major member of the blu-ray forum. i pretty certain the revolution won’t use hd-dvd
April 30th, 2005 at 10:42 pm
Panasonic may be a major member, but Sony is the leader of the Blu-ray forum.
Further, HD-DVD has certain advantages that would appeal to Nintendo.
1) It undermines Sony, their ‘true competitors’ according to Nintendo.
2) Much cheaper to produce, driving down the cost of the console and games
3) Blu-Ray is NOT easily made backwards compatible with DVD. GameCube games are backwards spun DVD’s. Since we are going to have backwards compatability, backwards-spun HD-DVD seems much more realistic.
4) They don’t want to use a format that helps make Sony money.
That’s why I expect Nintendo to go with HD-DVD. They could still switch to Blu-ray, but HD-DVD just seems more likely to me.
April 30th, 2005 at 10:55 pm
yeah, i guess so
i think one of nintendo’s mistakes this generation that having a disc with much less capacity than its competitors drove away third party support. and nintendo have said they want to correct many of their mistakes. i guess we’ll see tho
flying games are going to be really easy to control on revolution if it has gyro controls…tip the controller forward, plane tips forward etc.
April 30th, 2005 at 11:08 pm
You guys need to catch up on the news. They are merging HD DVD and Blu Ray to take the best from both formats and that will be the standard after dvd. This was announced a couple of weeks ago or so.
April 30th, 2005 at 11:13 pm
sony and toshiba are, panasonic hasn’t announced if they’re working on the merge or not
April 30th, 2005 at 11:41 pm
Aries,
What have you heard/seen of Perfect Dark Zero? How will it compare to Retro’s FPS? In other words, which one will kick more ass?
Also, is Brooke correct that Rare will be releasing Killer Instinct as a launch title for the X360?
April 30th, 2005 at 11:42 pm
Keep up the good work Aries.
Also, If you could, please explain whats up with the break apart controller patent that nintendo made.
April 30th, 2005 at 11:46 pm
Well Aries, I would like to be the first to thank you.
From following you from day 1 (I havent posted in awhile, but I still follow) I’d like to say you’ve converted me from hesitant –> believer.
I’d also like to say I still believe you work for Amaze Entertainment, but besides that, you said you weren’t a developer anymore?
You most certaintly, if you arent’ now, should be working for the marketing department beacuse you are one hell of a seller.
Good luck in everything if you wont be here in awhile, and I will look forward to checking out your game if your trailer makes it to E3.
Thanks for the hype….. god knows Nintendo wasn’t doing enough itself.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:19 am
I’m Surpised people are like “Aries prove yourself” When they can wait 2 weeks and find out if it is true.
The only thing I want to know left is, do you know if Pal gamers will be punished because we have countrys (France and Germany >.

Aries,
My one and only question (since you’re getting back to work):
Do you expect the Rev’s online service to be fully functional at the system’s launch? I’m worried that, even though Nintendo has dabbled online behind the scenes, they’ll be slow to get going since they don’t already have an infrastructure (like Live) in place.
Thanks for making this past week so damn exciting, btw!
May 1st, 2005 at 1:29 am
PS: Didn’t you hint at a couple more first-party games awhile back? (Or was that really you…?)
May 1st, 2005 at 2:51 am
SK is working to Condemned (PC/PS3/Xbox360)
May 1st, 2005 at 3:02 am
Hey Aries,
Just a quick question was there any talk whilst you were at NOA of them port Zelda OOT to the DS.
Do you remember a game on SNES called Shadowrun it was developed by Beam software … This should be remade for Revolution
Thanks
Spider
May 1st, 2005 at 4:57 am
Aries,
Is there any word on region coding for the system?
Cheers for all the info!
May 1st, 2005 at 5:18 am
Praxis:
That’s not a really fare comparison you’re making there between the Graphics Synthesizer of the PS2 and the X800. Those 700 million polygons are actually the number the GPU is able to push without any texturing or other graphical calculations in place. It’s more likely that the current-gen GPU’s are 10x as fast instead of 100x.
Besides, the graphics processor of the PS2 isn’t really known for it’s incredible graphical capabilities. Most of the graphical effects are calculated by the Emotion Engine. That’s also the reason why it’s so fast and hard to program for, since it has to calculate a lot of the graphics next to AI and physics itself. This will probably be different with the PS3 since it will have a full blown GPU developed by nVidia.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:25 am
this aries guy is the real deal, he knows his shit.
http://iseearrows.tk
May 1st, 2005 at 5:29 am
xbox 360 would be hard to program for…the CPU has to process game code, physics and sound. i’m sure ps3 and rev will have dedicated processors for each task
speaking of sound, will factor 5 develop the sound tools again?
May 1st, 2005 at 5:57 am
Ehrmm…it’s actually easier to program for one CPU than several different ones. Besides, the X360 CPU consists of three seperate cores, which could count as three seperate CPU’s as well. The PS3 works the same way with a single CPU consisting of several cores. In this case one central core with a couple of vector processors linked to it (between two and eight). How the Revolution architecture looks like is still up in the air and I doubt that Aries would reveal anything about it.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:05 am
I think we scared Aries away.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:17 am
No he just said that he would be back today. So we’ll just have to be patient.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:39 am
This all sounds so cool. I really do hope Aries is the real deal and is telling the truth… the Revolution would be so unbelievably awesome then! I use to have a bunch of questions to ask Aries, but it seems that, as I’ve read through this blog, most of them have been answered. I think what Aries is hinting at as the ‘revolutionary part’ of the Revolution is something simple- a natural evolution for video games.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:49 am
Do you really think the Nintendo Revolution will go for a standard G5 and sell there console for $199-399? I don’t see this happening, the Revolution will probably go the same route as Microsoft and go with custom POWERPC5(G5) core.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:05 am
For those that know, or who are definatly interested (which is just about eveyone), whenabouts does Aeris tend to come in here and share his insider knowledge? It’s 6 going on 7 in this blog, but obviously not for everyone, so does anyone know what time to expect him based on his appearances over the last few days?
May 1st, 2005 at 7:14 am
Hmm…if not, guess i’ll just come back later and see for myself if he’s still around the place.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:24 am
Aries,
Please try and read my previous questions, they are numbered.
9. Will the wireless controllers still contain rumble feedback?
May 1st, 2005 at 7:26 am
Aries forgot a company that may have a Development kit for the Revolution. SNK did a poll on their website asking what systen players would rather have there games on. They listed THe DS Xbox 360 and Revolution. Last I remember the Revolution had the undesputed lead with the other systems not even coming close.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:27 am
And I know you won’t answer, but personally, i think you work for Zoonami and your spy game will contain these advanced voice command features.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:34 am
“Now, firstly, these are NOT standard G5’s. They’re PowerPC based, but NOT G5’s.”
You can say they are not standard G5’s, they are more like custom G5’s, and yes the Xbox 360 is PowerPC based, but its Power5 based, the 3ghz mark kind of proves this.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:37 am
I don’t understand why aries does not want all to say, since in any way, this information will not be that rumour until A the E3
GO aries Say all what you know!
May 1st, 2005 at 7:44 am
There’s just one thing that concerns me about Aries’ story. Iwata himself stated a while ago that the concept of hooking up a gaming console to a tv set and plugging in a couple of controllers for playing a game, has become something of the past.
So one would expect that the Revolution could very well not be utilizing a tv as a display at all, and the way controllers are used would be completely different as well. The way Aries’ statements sound, it still seems like more of a ‘regular’ console if you know what I mean. Even with all the cool never before seen features he mentioned up ’till now.
May 1st, 2005 at 8:04 am
I’m going to do a summary of everything that appears to be coming from the real Aries. I typed this out on a different message board so I thought I’d paste it here for you all to read as well…
————————————————————-
I’ll tell ya, I’ve learned more from this brokensaints blog than anything else. You just have to do a lot of CTRL + F to filter out the asshat spammers.
I’m super pumped about the NRev now. Extremely pumped. =-)
I’ve been following what the user under the alias name Aries and what he’s been saying real closely this past week. Hes been nice enough to weed out and quote the crap imposters from the the real deal. Sunday (today) will be his last day answering questions as his week break expires and he’s got to head back to work.
A little history about him, he has been with NOA between 1999 to late 2004…he works with a new developer now who has been involved with NRev development…won’t say who for obvious reasons. He claims to have been in a very good position at NOA to know the things he knows. I believe him personally, because what he’s said hasn’t been really out of the ordinary, aside from a massive new effort by Nintendo to bring gamers online, all the other tidbits he’s given jive with some of the rumors we’ve been hearing.
First off there will be no holographic 3D jumping out of the screen. And surprisingly enough, the Revolution controller won’t be as weird as many of us have been thinking. The controller will contain all of the same buttons that the GameCube has and there will be no touch screen. He says Nintendo isn’t crazy. Game Informer = sack of lies. Also any specs on the web are pure speculation, someone was posing as him giving specs, but they aren’t real. He will say NRev will be more powerful than Xbox 360 but slightly underneith PS3 in terms of power.
As of right now, there is no d-pad which is kind of weird. We know games like Metroid Prime and Wind Waker need it for the backwards compatibility to work. He believes it will be implemented eventually. It’s the development process for how NCL works. I guess at one time he claims the DS didn’t have a d-pad either.
First, what Nintendo thinks to be the “revolutionary” aspect of the system isn’t really all that revolutionary as much as it makes things more “simple”. He said the codename should have been “Nintendo Simplicity”, heh. He won’t leak this, but it has something to do with the game medium and storage medium of the system.
He says someone got it correct but he won’t name who. There has been talk of HVD discs…holographic discs that hold a ton of information…but this is all rumor. And the disc is stationary…the laser actually revolves around the disc…the purpose is to almost completely eliminate load times. Something that will be a huge advantage to Nintendo over Sony and Microsoft. Again, this is all speculation.
Now on to the goods for what are the “supposed” facts. In his personal opinion, what makes the Nintendo Revolution deserving of its’ name are a combination of all the new gameplay features that are being added. Some of these we have heard before. Here we go…
- Gyroscopic control
Retro is working on an all new FPS IP that he claims will be Nintendo’s “Halo Killer”. It will utilize this gyration feature to the fullest for aiming to create a new experience.
- Controller handles contain pressure sensative ball grips.
The amount of pressure applied determines the change in gameplay. He says NST is working on a brand new Wave Race for the NRev launch and it’ll utilize this feature. The tighter the grip, the faster your jetski will go. He also wanted to add that the water effects are phenominal, the most realistic water he’s ever seen in a video game to date.
- Advanced voice recognition.
He said think “Nintendogs” but far more advanced. He said his company is working on a game to utilize this feature…the NRev dev kit has been giving out a wireless mic headset that looks similar to Xbox Live. Examples he gave were calling audibles in a new Madden game or organizing and giving squad based commands in a next-gen Rainbow Six.
- Online Gaming Network.
Free. Yes he claims it will be free. Believe it or not, he believes Nintendo has the best online network being setup…better than what Sony and even Microsoft is doing. But it won’t be just for games. Nintendo is commited to bringing gamers together and offer new forms of communication. You can even surf message boards and chat with your fellow gamers. He believes things like IGN forums won’t even be needed anymore. Gyration will also aid in the surfing ability. The ability to download works of progress and previews of future games will be available. You’ll even be able to download demo’s for the DS…NRev and DS can communicate thru their wi-fi. Nintendo is already experimenting with the downloadable DS promos in Japan. The NRev and a broadband connection will make this available for everyone soon.
- Wireless controllers.
By default, the controllers will be wireless like the wavebird. Nothing has been mentioned about rumble feedback or if it will recharge lithium-ion style yet.
On to the games…
- Retro has a new FPS IP. Sorry, no Metroid Prime 3 yet SiM.
- New Wave Race by NST…grip sensative acceleration and kick ass water effects
- New Smash Bros that will indeed contain online play. I know, sounds too good to be true. The only other thing he said is the graphical style can be changed…Paper Mario style and cel-shaded style options will be available.
- All new 3rd person action IP being jointly developed by Eiji Aounoma & Hideo Kojima (the reason why he’s not working on MGS4) He said it’ll be a furturistic setting and you play as a cyborg ninja. Each developer has great respect for one another and they wanted to make a game together. Aries claims it’ll combined the best of both worlds, Zelda, and MGS, in terms of gameplay.
- Mario Revolution. It will utilize every feature of the NRev and include mini-games in the same sense that Mario 64 DS did. He doesn’t believe this will make the NRev launch because last he seen, it was still very early in development. Shiggy has been too busy with Zelda and Mario 128 for Cube. Yes Mario 128 will be for GameCube and it’s a seperate title from Mario Revolution.
As for GameCube…
Mario 128 isn’t really that grand, he doesn’t know why Miyamoto was hyping it so much. There isn’t really any ideas that other developers can “steal”. He’s afraid some people will be disappointed because of the built hype(prepare for GCNGB whiners). He does say the game will be extremely fun and it’ll feel like the true spiritual successor to Mario 64. Zelda will of course blow us away.
As for the DS…
DS will be unveiling their online plan. Mario Kart DS & Metroid Hunters will indeed be online along with Animal Crossing. He also said that a new Smash Bros DS will be shown and it’ll be online as well. This may be that “other” mysterious game that Craig-IGN said he was hyped for.
Anywho, that’s it. Chew on that for what you will, I believe this Aries guy personally. We’ve heard a lot of that stuff many times before, the only thing that sounds too good to be true is the new aggressive online effort he claims. But we all know the wi-fi push Nintendo has been doing lately…I guess we’ll find out in 16 days.
May 1st, 2005 at 8:14 am
I would like add.
What I meant by Xbox 360 CPU will be using a custom G5, I meant derivative of IBM Power5 architecture, I used G5 because people mainly know the IBM Power5 architecture as the G5(Derivative of the IBM Power5).
May 1st, 2005 at 8:14 am

May 1st, 2005 at 8:18 am
Very good summary Paladin69. Good work!
There’s only one thing I want to point out. The PS3 is actually on a whole different plane performance-wise and neither the Revolution nor the Xbox 360 can get even close to it, unless Nintendo would pump even more money in Revolution development the rest of the year. That’s what he said a couple of times.
Also, I thought the Aonuma/Kojima join-up game was more of a Ninja Gaiden/Zelda combo? Could be wrong though.
May 1st, 2005 at 8:21 am
Oh, and you forgot to mention the RPG’s being developed by Square-Enix and Camelot. And I also heard him mentioning something about a new Pikmin game which is still very early in development, but I’m nog 100% positive if that came from the real Aries or just an imposter.
May 1st, 2005 at 8:22 am
Ah- has somebody really guessed “it” already? Hmmm…I must have missed that one then… dammit- there’s no way i’ll go through this whole blog. Better to just wait 16 days instead then. Thanks for the post though Paladin69. Very helpful summery that is.
May 1st, 2005 at 8:25 am
Also, I thought the Aonuma/Kojima join-up game was more of a Ninja Gaiden/Zelda combo? Could be wrong though.
you could be right…I’m too tired to go hunting for that again. That was a lot of typing and I’m spent.
I don’t really think PS3 will be all that much more impressive…new ways to play games is all I care about personally…of course mainstream yuppies will of course flock to who has the next GTA so they can get their prostitute fucking fix. Nintendo has a real good chance to win back the hearts of gamers in Japan though, and the majority of games I think most Nintendo gamers like come from over there.
May 1st, 2005 at 8:29 am
Just some speculation by me. Most of it is based on what was said up until now by Aries, though I added some own ideas as well (like the hardware specs).

you did a better summary of the games than I did. I knew I was forgetting a few. haha, are those specs real?…I was afraid to post anything…I don’t think they are.
yeah we can assume 1080i if it’s going to be more powerful than Xbox 360…unfortunetily we can’t confirm this yet. Hell even GameCube’s GPU could have produced 1080i visuals, but Nintendo stupidly locked it at 480p.
May 1st, 2005 at 8:36 am
One other tidbit we should add. Aries doesn’t believe we’ll actually get to see the NRev controller. He says Nintendo will most likely show some games on video, give out more details, and maybe show a prototype design of the NRev console.
May 1st, 2005 at 8:39 am
Didn’t he also say Zoonami has a game in development?
And Activision has some Xbox 360 ports on the way…
May 1st, 2005 at 8:43 am
Aries, did you say the controler got warm?
May 1st, 2005 at 8:56 am
Quote: “i think one of nintendo’s mistakes this generation that having a disc with much less capacity than its competitors drove away third party support. and nintendo have said they want to correct many of their mistakes.”
That’s Microsoft’s problem, not Sony. They’re launching too early for ANY next generation format.
If Nintendo used full sized HD-DVD disks (remember, you can put minidisks in a full sized drive), the sizes would be:
Sony: 50 GB
Nintendo: 30 GB
Microsoft: 7 GB
Note the difference?
Quote: “You guys need to catch up on the news. They are merging HD DVD and Blu Ray to take the best from both formats and that will be the standard after dvd. This was announced a couple of weeks ago or so.”
WHY did I know somebody was going to bring this up? Ugh.
Nothing was announced. READ THE BLU-RAY FORUM sometimes. They are DISCUSSING THE POSSIBILITY. Both Toshiba and Sony deny any decision has been made. Sony themselves said that any agreements would result in an expansion on the Blu-ray format, meaning that they want to force Toshiba to build off their work. By being stubborn, that makes it even less likely.
NOTHING is official yet.
There is a chance it might happen, but its very unlikely.
Quote: “Praxis:
That’s not a really fare comparison you’re making there between the Graphics Synthesizer of the PS2 and the X800. Those 700 million polygons are actually the number the GPU is able to push without any texturing or other graphical calculations in place.

Yeah, but isn’t the 7 million polygons for the PS2 making the same assumption? No texturing or any other graphical calculations?
“Besides, the graphics processor of the PS2 isn’t really known for it’s incredible graphical capabilities. Most of the graphical effects are calculated by the Emotion Engine. That’s also the reason why it’s so fast and hard to program for, since it has to calculate a lot of the graphics next to AI and physics itself.

Oh, definitely. Fully agree.
Quote: “Do you really think the Nintendo Revolution will go for a standard G5 and sell there console for $199-399? I don’t see this happening, the Revolution will probably go the same route as Microsoft and go with custom POWERPC5(G5) core. ”
A slightly modified G5 would be fine. Look at the GameCube- it has a slightly modified G3.
Microsoft’s is SERIOUSLY modified to the point it isn’t a G5 at all. Super high clock speeds and very low efficiency/IPC. It’s a great way to inspire hype with a high GHz number, but not necessarily the best way to get good performance.
Quote: “You can say they are not standard G5’s, they are more like custom G5’s, and yes the Xbox 360 is PowerPC based, but its Power5 based, the 3ghz mark kind of proves this. ”
No, they’re not G5’s at all. The G5 is Apple’s name for IBM’s PowerPC 970. These are NOT PowerPC 970’s. Definitely not.
It *could* be POWER5 based (the PowerPC 970/G5 is POWER4 based), but it looks to me like its just a whole new processor based on the PowerPC architecture.

when aries be bak?
May 1st, 2005 at 9:08 am
I still cant understand the whole thing about wireless power supplies. I don’t know how real the possibility of the feature is, but it seems completely impossible to me. Let alone affordable. If wireless power was an actuality, why wouldn’t PC mice/keyboards be using them? ot TV remote controlls? i *seriously* doubt anything to do with wireless power supply with be featured on the Revolution, or any other coming generation technology.
May 1st, 2005 at 9:11 am
Like I said, those hardware specs were completely thought up by myself.
May 1st, 2005 at 9:12 am
No wireless power supply wouldn’t work. Did he say that Ronn?
May 1st, 2005 at 9:12 am
nm, you beat me to it.
May 1st, 2005 at 9:20 am
“Ronn Says: There’s just one thing that concerns me about Aries’ story. Iwata himself stated a while ago that the concept of hooking up a gaming console to a tv set and plugging in a couple of controllers for playing a game, has become something of the past.

Shade: What Aries have reaveled still leaves much room for speculation, for example he refuse to give away info on the controllers “battery” and stuff like that, this could mean the console could be using a wireless power supply - Search for that on google and see what you find, wireless power and energy transfer have been out there for a long time now.
—–
Aries, you said the Revolution will be simple and able to evolve\transform, when you said simple was you only reffering to the consumer product or the whole revolutionary aspect? And by evolving could it mean the product is able to upgrade itself in some way? Will Revolutions media be online based?
(I’m still curious about that supposed NOJ leak we at NNow have got to sniff on, even though it sounds to amazing to be realistic, again, please say if I make sence to you or not Aries)
May 1st, 2005 at 9:21 am
Praxis:
No, those 7 million poly’s are texturing and stuff included. If I remember correctly, it’s peak poly performance was around 70 million/sec. Could even have been 100+ though.

Like I have understood the latest versions of wireless power technology have gotten very affordable, it just have not been put into use by the mass marked yet, it’s mainly been used for industrial purposes and such for the most.
May 1st, 2005 at 9:37 am
Aries did say that the controlers wold get warm, but he never sed it egen.
May 1st, 2005 at 9:39 am
I’m curious how rumble packs will work with wireless controllers, since WaveBirds don’t have them.
And here’s another guess for the revolutionary feature… a touch pad. Pad. Like of those featured on labtop computers to move the cursor on screen.
May 1st, 2005 at 9:42 am
What is NNow?

Quote: “No, those 7 million poly’s are texturing and stuff included. If I remember correctly, it’s peak poly performance was around 70 million/sec. Could even have been 100+ though. ”
Then you would be correct, the jump is about 10x or more (depends how the next gen cards are), rather than 100x.
Quote: “Aries did say that the controlers wold get warm, but he never sed it egen. ”
What post was that in, could it have been an imposter?
May 1st, 2005 at 9:54 am
First of all, nice summaries… Second, it will most likely just be a ‘hook-up’ console. They really won’t change that, honest.
Also, an Aonuma/Kojima partnership would be like… teh coolest ^^
Ronn stated a couple of times he made up the Revo specs as Aries, but no one seams to listen :s
The controllers seem to be perfect for racing games. Even old men can own in it. You could race without touching a single button.. Just steering with the controller and speeding up with the pressure sensitive things is enough.. This is great, makes gaming simple an makes gaming something for all audiences.
Also Ronn, I don’t think the triggers/buttons will stimulate the nerves so you ‘feel’ the game, although this makes sence if you combine it with the ‘the controller will get hot’ story…
Can’t wait for E3!

Shade: Doesn’t need to be more than a hoax though, which it is most likely, but that “leak” does not crash with what Aries is saying and makes it understandable why he does not want to reveal the really “revolutionary” thing about the NRev.
It’s nice if Nintendo is taking risks, but seriously taking a “do or die” risk is just crazy in my opinion, burning up their whole capital of several billions dollars to bring us a online based console (no more need to buy new consoles after the Revolution) and a global network that reaches everyone is just… I dunno, insane…
But we’ll see at E3 if that NOJ leak is true, if it’s then I’ll end up getting a heart attack or something, I mean, I would been satisfied with just half of the stuff Aries have already metnioned and still felt like going crazy, lol.

whats a wireless power supply?
May 1st, 2005 at 9:58 am
I’ll just be totally salivating behind my computer as soon as E3 comes along and Nintendo gives their E3 briefing where the console will finally be revealed.

Silicon Knights is not developing for the Nintendo Revolution right now. They will show off some Xbox 360 games at E3; I can confirm that. Matt saw the game, and he knows what they are up to. Once he is able to talk about it, he will reveal his information to you.
Like I said, I know as much about Resident Evil 5 as you do. I would guess it is going to be a current generation game. If Capcom could have it ready for the holidays (to combat the Xbox 360), it would come out then. But that’s just my own speculation (and hope; RE4 is amazing).
I can confirm that Nintendo is currently working on many Revolution titles. Most are just in the planning stages, but I have seen video of seven. I’m sure at least three or four of these games will be at E3 in video form. Perhaps more; we will see at E3. Outside of our game, there are six 3rd party games that I have heard of. As I mentioned earlier, Square Enix (happy now?) is developing a new game for the Revolution. EA, Sega, Zoonami, Namco, and Activision are currently working on games.
3rd party information:
EA is playing around with the Revolution’s capibilities, implementing them into another Madden game. This isn’t really news though. From what I’ve heard, they are really going out of their way to make this more than just a port. Voice controls are being used to the max in this title. Calling out audibles will be used this way. The wireless capibilities of the system are also going to be used. Like I said, there will be no reason to buy Madden for the Xbox 360 when the Revolution version comes out.
Sega is developing three games for the Revolution that should be at E3. I’m not going to reveal too much on what they are up to for obvious reasons. The three games I listed does not include the game we are developing for them. You will be very suprised at what they are doing. I’m sure you have heard of the Xbox 360 title Condemned that they are working on. This game is something that many wouldn’t expect Sega to make; you won’t expect what you will see at E3. The other game they have is a typical, quirky Sega game. It’s very interesting in the sense that it uses all the system’s capibilities.
Zoonami has already given out some hints on what they are working on. I have always felt that Sam Fisher is a much better character than Solid Snake. Zoonami just might have some characters that are better than both of them.
Namco is working on a Revolution game, but I don’t have details on it. I am sure that it is not a Soul Caliber III port. I don’t see why they just won’t add online play and Link and Ganon to the game and release it as a launch title. That would be a very smart move.
Activision is working on some ports for the Revolution. You will see what they have for the Xbox 360 at E3. At least one of these games will be ported to the Revolution for its launch.
On 1st party information:
Like I said, I have seen seven Nintendo titles, some of which will be at E3. When the DS was launced, it had one sub par 1st party game. This will not be the case with the Revolution’s launch. If they were to release all the games I’ve seen at launch, it would easily be the best launch ever for a console.
I can confirm that Nintendo is working on a new, orignal Mario game. In my opinion, the last few Miyamoto games havn’t been that interesting. This will change with this game. Like Mario 64 for the N64, this game will introduce all of the capibilities of the console. It will use the pressure sensitive controls mainly, but the voice controls as well as gyroscopic controls will be used as well. From what I saw, this game will use mini games to introduce many of these schemes. All of these mini games could be released as stand alone games.
A new Super Smash Bros. Melee is in the works as well. This game will demonstrate the online functions of the Revolution. Nintendo has added many new things into the game, included a deeper combat system. Many more special moves are included as well as some very cool suprises. The levels will include some destructible environments, and the characters will be fully customizable. Want to play as Mario in his 80’s outfit? Or would you prefer the 90’s look? It’s your choice. The most innovative part of the game is the different modes. In previous games, you were allowed to play in giant mode, metal mode, small mode, etc. That has changed. You will be able to choose to play in a “Paper” mode (a la Paper Mario), a cel shaded mode (Wind Waker), or Viewtiful Joe-esque mode.
As I said earlier, Retro is working on a Halo killer. This game is going to be one of the best games at E3. In my opinion, StarCraft was the best RTS ever. This game is going to use some similar ideas. In most FPS, you play as a hero trying to save the day. In Retro’s game, they allow you to choose which storyline you want to play, just like StarCraft allows you to play as Terran, Zerg, etc.Biological weapons will play a major part in the game. Imagine fighting in a chemical plant, where toxics are stored everywhere. By shooting them, you emit the toxic. If you get hit by this stuff, many different things may happen. For instance, you may lose sight on the screen, your controls might be inverted or slowed down, etc. Or, if your character gets the fever, the controller might get hot. Very hot. The alien races are very interesting also. You will be able to switch to 3rd person in order to move faster (similar to running in Odd World: Stranger’s Wrath). You will be able to “impregnate” human players by grabbing on to them for a certain amount of time. This will implant a NPC in them, which will burst out at your command, instantly killing the human player. You will then be able to use voice control to command the NPC.

Nnow is short for nintendonow.com
Its a giant Nintendo forum. Plus, any spammers will be shot on target. If you are interested in joining nnow then sign up for it. And were it says “referal” on the registration just type in my name, Bloodman.
Also, i suggest you spend some time learning how to use it. There is a seperate section for everything (nintendo, Sony, xbox, general discussion, etc.) so dont go putting topics were they shouldn’t be. We will also have our own people at E3 this year for the first time, something I’m very excited about. And we are also gonna have some big changes to make the site look more profesional than it already is (since we are now parters with Gametrailers.com and are soon opening a new news only site called “Nintendofire.com (name pending)). Some come on over!
May 1st, 2005 at 10:15 am
Hmmm, I’m not 100% positive if those details about the Retro FPS are actually from the real Aries instead of an imposter. The rest does sound quite feasible though. Still a bit strange that he seperately mentions the visual style of VJ at the SSB story, while it’s just cell-shaded like TWW. I also find it a bit strange that he seemingly forgot to mention Majesco as a developer that’s currently making games for Revolution even though he DID say so earlier. Well those are the only inconsistencies I can find and they’re all not THAT big to think that he’s a fraud or anything.
Still like to know what Nintendo developed games he currently knows of though. He said he’s seen at least seven of them and possibly is aware of even more inhouse titles which are in development right now. Since he only mentioned Wave Race, the Mario game, a new SSB and the Retro FPS as in-house titles, that still leaves three titles which haven’t been mentioned yet. That is, unless the futuristic third person action game and the Camelot RPG count as Nintendo games too, and the Pikmin story was from the real Aries as well.

Yeah, I kinda seem to have missed that one as well. So it’s some leak which kinda ties in with Aries’ revelations?

heh, I can’t believe I’ve sifted through this entire blog.
Anyway, I’d like to ask Aries about the Nintendo news stories that are supposed to relate to the Revolution. You (or maybe an imposter. i hope not) even linked to the Yamauchi story. I found that interesting becuase not a lot of info was given other than he was getting “tired.” Did Yamauchi, along with his outspoken attitude, quit for any other reason? Was he not happy with the direction Nintendo is pursuing? What are your thoughts, aries? And how are these soon to be articles going to relate to the rev? Thanks
May 1st, 2005 at 10:49 am
When does Aries come back? Or is he still sleeping? Probably sleeping cause he hates us:(
That’s it, I CHALLENGE ARIES TO A FIGHT AT NINTENDOS HEADQUARTERS!1

yeah mabi cos nintendo are goin online and with more adulty games yamauchi has gone in a huff and quit?
an will some1 please tell us bout the noj leak PLEASE

hey do u guys think nintendo know bout this site, because if aries is tellin truth then they will be pissed an if he aint then they should be worried cause every single ninty fan could be in 4 ne major disappiontment at e3
May 1st, 2005 at 11:02 am
What is this NOJ leak that is continually being mentioned?
Anyway, as exciting as all these things are (particularly those said by Aries), it all sounds too good to be true. And we all know the saying: “If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.”
But here’s hoping.
May 1st, 2005 at 11:09 am

NOJ? What’s that? Are you guys trying to say “nintendo of japan”? Becuase they’re just called NCL. Or is this some other acronym that I’m unfamiliar with?
May 1st, 2005 at 11:16 am
hey aeris i dont mean ot overwhelm you with too many questions but her are some.
Since sega has the license for tenchu is there any chance that it is being developed for next-gen and having it go with more realistic character animations and it acutally being good( after the second one the series has gone downhill as far as effort put it to make it a quality stealth action game.
is sony going with a redesigned controller including a trigger that is better built without drifting analog sticks and sticking shoulder buttons?
is sony using the 4.6 ghz 1ppe/8 spu cell chip or more if what you say is true about it being on a whole different level in terms of power compared to the rev and 360?
when you said we might have to wait a while for ps3 do you mean we may not see a spring japan release and a fall/ winter 2006 but actually later?
and finally any news on a true shinobi that can compete with the quality of ninja gaiden.
thanx for you time if you can provide some insight aeris
May 1st, 2005 at 11:17 am
I read through some of the comments that I missed, and it’s good to see that people have come together to share beliefs and information. That’s what it should be about; this isn’t “my” blog or anything like that, it is our blog.
As I said yesterday, today will probally be my last day on this blog. E3 is almost here, and I can’t wait for Nintendo to finally release this information. It’s going to be very interesting. I’ll be working all next week, but I might be able to come back during the weekend.
One of the questions that I missed dealt with Perfect Dark 0 and Retro’s FPS. I haven’t seen Perfect Dark 0, but the few details I have heard are very interesting. Last week some details about the game were on a gaming site. It mentioned that Perfect Dark 0 would support the largest online deathmatch battles ever seen in a console game. That is very good news. I said previously that Perfect Dark 0 is going to be one of the best games at E3. I stand by that statement. But, like I said, I feel Retro’s FPS will be better; I don’t have any details on Perfect Dark 0, but I’ve seen Retro’s project. It’s going to be very innovative in my opinion. Like I said, it reminded me of StarCraft. I also said the controller would heat up at certain instances of the game, and some people have questioned that. The pressure sensitive controls are not used for input only. They will allow you to feel certain parts of games, and Retro has done a great job implementing this.
Ronn: I didn’t mention Majesco because I have few details on what they are working on. I had information of EA’s game, as well as the other ones I mentioned. With Majesco, I can only speculate on their project. The most logical guess would be that their project is going to be “The Darkness”, a comic adapted action game that will be on the other next generation consoles as well.
I will not be able to post anything until later today.

aj490:
It’s just what it says. A device that gets it’s power/electricity without using any wires…and no, I’m not talking batteries here, but a wireless link between some device and a regular power supply. So for the Revolution this would mean wireless controllers which don’t need a battery since they receive their power from the console without the use of any wires. Sounds incredible, but it already exists for quite a while.
May 1st, 2005 at 11:23 am
First off, I’d like to thank Aries for rekindling my hype and excitement for the Revolution. Around the time that it was rumored that Nintendo might not show anything of the Revolution at E3 2005 because it would supposedly be afraid other companies would steal its ideas, I started to completely not care about the Revolution. There was no hype. I thought all was lost. But, Aries brought me back to life in a figurative way, and I am so happy about what he is saying, for that I really hope it is true. Here’s hoping, like Crusader, that everything Aries said is true.
Anyways, I have some questions of my own to ask Aries:
1. You’ve mentioned that the gyroscopic controls, pressure sensitive controls, and voice controls are all considered ‘optional’ on the Revolution. However, you haven’t said much in regards with this about the ‘revolutionary’ feature of the Revolution. Can you please give some insight as to whether the Revolution’s ‘revolutionary’ feature is optional or not, and what makes it that way?
2. You’ve stated that the ‘revolutionary’ feature of the Revolution is simple and not anything insane (thank goodness). However, you’ve stated that the most exciting features of the Revolution are the voice control system and its online plans, then you compared the ‘revolutionary’ feature to a control stick. Does the ‘revolutionary’ feature of the Revolution, in your eyes, really define the console, or is it better to say that all of the Revolution’s features together define it more justfully? What’s your outake onto this?
May 1st, 2005 at 11:23 am
“Caz Says: an will some1 please tell us bout the noj leak PLEASE”
It’s probably just a hoax or satire or something, it sounds unrealistic so don’t hype yourself yet people.
http://www.gamer-girl.org/features/revolution.html
It would really own if that would end up being true - perhaps PS3 will be much more powerful in the beginning of the next generation, but at the change of the next generation those with a Nintendo system would automatically transfer over to the next generation without the need to buy a new system, Nintendo would only need to update the hardware found in the RevolutionMEGAs for us to get an updated hardware.
I don’t belive it yet, but it fits with Aries hints about the revolution being able to evolve\transform so it makes me curious.
May 1st, 2005 at 11:23 am
He also said the other two games were Pikmin and a Camelot title. Also Aeris if you didn’t read my question, what other games for Gamecube does Nintendo have?
May 1st, 2005 at 11:25 am
With the controllers heating up, what kind of temperatures are we talking? You seemed to mention “Very Hot”, but if your concept of Very Hot is the same as mine, I could see this coming back to bite Nintendo in the arse…. with players experiencing first degree burns on their palms and such…
May 1st, 2005 at 11:27 am
Isn’t it strange that Brooke puts up a blog about some pretty outlandish Revolution secrets. Coincidentally, Aries pops in and is more than eager to give out information on the same subject. Yet a further coincidence in the fact that Brooke’s site gets hacked, and he is away working on fixing the problem, all while the biggest blog to hit his site goes on…
Not to say that I don’t agree with a lot of what Aries says.
May 1st, 2005 at 11:30 am
ANd yes, I meant NCL rather than NOJ, sorry, my mistake, I always say NOJ, NOA or NOE, lol.
May 1st, 2005 at 11:31 am
Any word on DVD playback Aries???
May 1st, 2005 at 11:31 am
i still am not sure about the whole warm thing. It would have to be metal, right? or else the controller could melt. But… it couldn’t be metal because the controller is pressure sensitive so it…. IM CONFUSED.
May 1st, 2005 at 11:35 am

that ‘NOJ leak’ is so popostrous! there’s seriously no way… and im very glad about that!
May 1st, 2005 at 11:39 am
I think it’s something that fools the nerves in your hand to send false information to your brain so that it tells you that you are touching something hot, cold, slimy etc. when you really don’t…
Aries, am I close? And can you say if the NCL leak I mentioned is a hoax?
May 1st, 2005 at 11:43 am
Aries: I would like to know if Revolution will have a DVD player like the PS3 and Xbox 360 most likely will. I don’t care if it does or doesn’t really, but since Nintendo is finally embracing online, are they willing to embrace DVD playing consoles as well?
May 1st, 2005 at 11:45 am
Controllers are made out of plastic, and the pressure sensitive area couldn’t be made out of plastic anyways, as it would more likely be more “cushiony” in some way.
Anyways, Aries, I want to know: you said that the SSB for Rev. has Paper Mode, Cel-shaded Mode, etc., but how would this affect gameplay in any way? Sure, its great that the graphical style changed and all, but something else would have to change for it to really ‘matter’. I’m now not so sure, based on this, whether you’re entirely telling the truth or not… and if you are, could you tell me how good SSB’s graphics were?
May 1st, 2005 at 11:45 am
well… aries said something about it being a 2 sided disc thing and that said no disc, so i doubt it.
May 1st, 2005 at 11:46 am
I don’t think it will literally become warmer. It will just give you the sensation that it’s hot even while in reality it’s not…if ya know what I mean. Just like I said, the handles will have the ability to stimulate the nerves in your fingertips or something like that, so you can actually feel things within the game. This technology exists and I even saw a demo of it, though I forgot from which company it was (not very well known/large). At least they clearly stated on their website that they’d like to see it incorporated in a gaming machine, so this could very well be the Revolution.
@ Shade:
LOL, how could someone seriously believe such a silly story?
With all due respect, but that just sounds totally unrealistic and very, very unlikely. The costs involved with such a project would simply be astronomical. Seriously, nobody would consider pouring money in a project such as that, which is almost 100% likely to fail. Do you even realise how much organisation would be involved with that? I strongly doubt the American goverment (or any goverment for that matter), would even consider to give such a project the green light. Damn, if people would actually believe such far-fetched ideas, they’ll probably just believe anything.

“that ‘NOJ leak’ is so popostrous! there’s seriously no way… and im very glad about that! ”
Yeah- I’d say it’s wrong for a few reasons:
1.) Whwere do you put the disk for backwards compatibility?
2.) Nintendo has some pretty deep pockets- but not $40 Billion deep…
3.) Making all games downloadable does one thing you don’t want to do: Cuts retailers out of teh equation entirely. Why would they want to deote shelf space to hardware taht they can’t profit off of teh software sales for?
4.) Eliminating hard copies of games alienates gamers who don’t have the propper speed connection to use the online features. Online is a great feature, but the system should also be able to operate in a vaccuum.
May 1st, 2005 at 11:54 am
Aries,
Is the online ‘magazine’ actually an online mag like IGN or is it like a weekly/daily newsletter?
May 1st, 2005 at 11:54 am
So Aries; I know you’re being swamped with questions, but the thing that has confused a lot of us:
You mentioned the controller might “heat up”. Is this true? Did you mean something else and we misunderstood, or was it an imposter? How is this done without killing battery life?
May 1st, 2005 at 11:55 am
Also, you can’t just like…construct some huge f*cking building like that, even if it’s in the middle of nowhere.
I mean…COME ON!
aj490:
Don’t worry, like I said…the sensation of heat, cold or the feeling of a certain surface (like paper) will simply be simulated. No more, no less.
May 1st, 2005 at 11:57 am
Praxis:
Remember the wireless power supply? The controllers don’t use batteries since they’ll just receive their power wirelessly from the console. Aries will probably not admit this, since it’s possible one of the ‘revolutionary’ aspects.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:00 pm
I dont quite get the heat thing either, im pretty sure it takes quite a bit of energy to heat up stuff… wouldn’t that drink up the the power really quickly?
Aries, if the pad will have these kind of feedback methods… will it be shape shifting at all?
Also, will sonic be in the Revolutions SSB?
From what i gather Aries is suggesting that the control mechanism will be so back to basics that it will be like second neture using it. Just like its second nature using an analogue stick, or using a touchscreen on a DS. The trouble im having is thinking of a control scheme that could be such a thing!
May 1st, 2005 at 12:02 pm
If Revolution can give off it’s own power, can’t it technically be it’s own hotspot, eliminating the need for any sort of wireless router or anything like that? I know it seems impossible, but it would sure fit in with Nintendo’s idea of not having any complications with the online aspect.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:08 pm
Well, since everybody does so, I might as well fire a question to Aries:
You seem to be very reluctant about revealing the Revolution’s hardware specs. What reason is there, next to the ‘it’s not that important’ argument? I mean, it could never hurt to reveal a bit about it right? Can’t image that it would actually expose you or anything. At least it would increase your credibility and plausibility which would really help the hype build-up further, since people would more likely believe your information.
Of course, you don’t have to reveal all the specs (like theoretical performance and the like), but could you at least inform us a bit about the CPU and GPU being used? Are they comparable to the ones in the Xbox 360 from an architecutral point of view (i.e. does it feature a multi-core G5 processor and an R500 derivative too)? I’m just curious since it might hint in to what we might expect from it graphically.

???? restate that better.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:12 pm
Aries, if he is indeed for real, is certainly taking a risk even by giving out details like he has. He has claimed that he is trying to protect his identitiy, but if what he is saying is true, and since it has spread throughout Nintendo fandom, is there not a chance that the developer he works for would get wind of all this? I don’t know how much of an eye developers and people in the industry keep on fansites, but rumors as big as this spread quick (as this one had).
I guess my point is that if Aries were truly as cautious as he claims then pulling something like this is already rather risky. Sure, he hasn’t given out any really specific personal information, but the info he has given about the Revolution can’t be known by too many people, and if it were entrusted to a large number of people some hefty restraints would have to be in place to make sure no one broke the NDA.
There are other things I find suspicious. E3 is not far away. So why even bother with all this? If Brooke’s speculation is wrong then why not just let time disprove him? Wouldn’t it be better that way, and certainly safer?
Also, you claim to know a lot about what some third parties have planned for the Revolution. You certainly have a lot of info. So, just how high up were you?
You might be telling the truth, but we have no way of knowing until E3.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:14 pm
What I mean up there is, if Revolution can have it’s own power supply, why can’t it have it’s own parts on the inside to be a hotspot for the wi-fi? I mean, people have been saying that in order for the Rev’s wi-fi to work, you’ll will need a wireless router to relay your computer’s modem signal to the Rev…why can’t the Rev just give off it’s own signal, like the DS?
May 1st, 2005 at 12:15 pm
jonnyjon: “I dont quite get the heat thing either, im pretty sure it takes quite a bit of energy to heat up stuff… wouldn’t that drink up the the power really quickly?”
To repeat it once again, the controller doesn’t literally heat-up or anything. There’s some sort of sensory system within the handles of the controllers, which can stimulate the nerves in your fingertips and handpalms, to give you the IMPRESSION that the controller is actually heating up. It doesn’t heat up at all actually, it will just seem that way to you as a gamer. The system simply tricks you and makes up an illusion so to speak (hmm…suddenly I remember the movie “The Game” again…).
And again about the power. It’s technically possible for the controllers to wirelessly receive their power from the console itself, so batteries are completely out of the question. They simply wont be needed that way.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:21 pm
“What I mean up there is, if Revolution can have it’s own power supply, why can’t it have it’s own parts on the inside to be a hotspot for the wi-fi?

The DS gives off it’s own signal, but there are FCC limitations on the range- therefore you must be within a certain range of a wireless router or a WiFi hotspot to connect to the internet. The Revolution would have to follow those same regulations.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:21 pm
ronn seems to keep thinking he knows everything…

Well, I think the NCL leak is unrealistic too, but I don’t think it would stop retailers from selling their hardware in protest from not being able to sell their software. Besides, a lot of retailers refuse to sell Nintendo stuff already because they feel “it does not sell” so why not simply make Ninty sell the games directly to their customers themself?
IGN said that downloading games is something that would likely happen in the future, I wish I could find that article again… grrr… Anyway, perhaps that future is closer than we think.
Oh, and it would not alienate gamers with low speed connections, because this system would be sepearate from your phone-line (broadband and dial-up) everyone who buys a system would have access to this network as it seems as one RevolutionMEGA is able to cover several nations in a hotspot.
Like I said I don’t belive it until I see it either, but I think a lot of it fits more than what some of you think, besides, how do you guys know it will cost 40 billion dollars? I’m sure it’s going to be insane expensive, which is why I think these hints that make it seem that Nintendo suddenly are getting short on cash to have some relevance.
My biggest doubt about this speculation is how it is possible to cover several nations in a hotspot and that even from a ground based building? I’ll be trully amazed if this turns out to be true.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:22 pm
DDBinks:
Might very well be possible. I was speculating quite a bit about that myself, that the Revolution would actually serve as a hotspot for the DS. I don’t see why that wouldn’t be possible.
I have to restate myself a bit btw, concerning the power supply. Of course, the Rev would STILL need to receive it’s power from a regular electricity supply in your house (forgot the name…I’m not a native english speaker), like a consoles do. Power to the controllers would then work just like it does now through the cords, only the cords wont be there anymore and power is just transferred wirelessly.

aj490:
Hey, I’m just speculating myself, but sometimes it seems that many ideas/speculations are completely overlooked. Still, I AM in fact quite convinced of how it will work, since I once read about this technology and KNOW that it exists and they were planning on implementing it in a gaming machine. So yeah, I’ll admit that I’m almost certain about how it will all work.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:28 pm
Makes sense. I think that’d be a true revolutionary thing if Rev could be its own hotspot. No hook-ups or anything like that, just engage the Rev’s wi-fi and connect. That simple.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:32 pm
just in case you missed my post aries here they are
is the ps3 using the 4.6 ghz 1ppe/8spu setup or better since you say its in a league of its own.
how different does the new duel shock look like. also im guessing sony’s innovation is better and more widespread eyetoy functionality.
how does sony’s online setup coming along?
any chance of a true shinobi sequel that will be on par with ninja gaiden?
and is there achance that tenchu will be any good in next gen(i.e. better AI, better character movement/animations, improved fighting system and world design and interactivity) if its not in deveopment yet are these ideas at least floating around? personally i think they should go a direction with a massive online feudal japan with a bunch of different clans and you have to go on a bunch of spy and assassination missions that included COOP
aside from the sports franchises that are now gone sega hasnt put out many titles with AAA production values
May 1st, 2005 at 12:33 pm
Nintendo’s always been about making their systems as cheap as possible. with wireless power input wouldn’t that drive the cost up by a lot?
May 1st, 2005 at 12:37 pm
I also think that Nintendo isn’t going for the Internet network at all and will simply setup it’s own internal network just for Rev and DS. Not in the fashion like how the so-called NCL leak claims it will happen, but just by ehrmm…well, I dunno. Might be that they’ll install their very own network servers all over the world. One in each city for example. Or maybe they’ll work by sattelite? I dunno…but I still think it’s quite likely that Nintendo is going for a proprietary network next to the Internet, just for Nintendo products. Just like they always tend to go for their own proprietary storage medium for their games.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:38 pm
Crrrrrrrr: I think Nintendo plans to keep a lot of costs down by using a lot the inside pieces the Gamecube uses now. They’ll be even cheaper when Revolution is out, so the cost there will be small on Nintendo’s part. The things that’ll drive up costs will be IBM’s and ATI’s new chips, and the possible inclusion of parts to make the Revolution work as its own hotspot.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:40 pm
@Aries: Pleas tell me how the controler will work??? I mean the HEET…..how can that be???
May 1st, 2005 at 12:44 pm
And why are you doing this???PLEASE TELL THE TRUTH !!!GOD CAN SEE YOU…..:-)
May 1st, 2005 at 12:44 pm
“Crrrrrrr Says: Nintendo’s always been about making their systems as cheap as possible. with wireless power input wouldn’t that drive the cost up by a lot?”
Some of the latest versions of wireless power is based on bluetooth technology and doesn’t cost much more to add than ordinary bluetooth (like the wavebird uses).
May 1st, 2005 at 12:47 pm
when you keep getting hit by great technology to greatly increase your gaming expierience, i doubt specs will matter.
May 1st, 2005 at 12:53 pm
HOLY GOOD FU*K is it not clear to anyone that BROOKE IS ARIES!!!! Also that NCL leak is an absolute joke! for crying out loud have you seen that picture?! its a basic mouse that has been sprayed to look metal with a couple of bent tv aerials, “oh and just to make it look totally real lets fire in a wavebird” cackle cackle cackle they’ll all believe me mwa ha haha ha
Burgess get a grip
May 1st, 2005 at 1:03 pm
Yeah, we’re onto you now Burgess!!
Seriously though, there’s a good change that Brooke and Aries are indeed one and the same person. It might very well be that both stereoscopic 3D and the touch features of the controller ARE indeed the actual revolutionary aspects which Aries is reluctant to talk about. It would spoil the suprise according to him, so IF Aries = Brooke than he might have thought like: “wouldn’t it be cool to pretend that the whole stereoscopic and touch parts aren’t true and instead colaborate on all the other functions which are arguably more interesting?”
May 1st, 2005 at 1:06 pm
Ok, here’s what I think:
The revolutionary aspect of the console is the double-sided disks which stay still whilst the laser spins around. Aries said “Monkey C, Monkey do: you’re very clever, I’ll say no more” when he mentioned this, and he also mentioned something about the lasre reading from the inside to the out, as apposed to the other way around which is the current method.
All this stuff about heating up controllers is utter rubbish. I’m almost certain this was one of the sposts which Aries quoted and said “this isn’t me” to. Can you imagine what would happen a soon as some kid did something wrong in a game and the controller “burned them”. Nintendo would never be able to make anything ever again!
That NOJ (and yes it should be NOE) leak is possibly the most ridiculous thing I have ever read in my life. A huge building which beams out games and only one per territory? Riiight. Not gonna happen. That picture of is also appalling - no-one in their right mind would believe that was what the Revolution would look like!
As for all the other stuff… I think gyroscopic control is pretty revolutionary. Take Minority Report as a case in point - the way he manipulates the computer by waving his hand looks so futuristic that you wouldn’t think it possible in the next 20 years or so, but here it is in a mainstream gaming console - amazing.
The controller was always gonna have to be fairly standard as soon as Iwata mentioned the whole backwards compatibility issue. Aries’ comments back this up by stating that it’s almost exactly the same as the GameCube controller (although I question th lack of a D-pad, that would be somewhat suicidal on Nintendo’s part) apart from the pressure pads. Speaking of which, I think that this is an interesting idea, but one which may not be used too much in certain games. For example, in some games you may be nervous/edgy so might grip the controller tightly (especially if you’re concentrating on something, a race for example) so with the Revolution controller this would mean that you would press a “button” that you didn’t want to. On the other hand, it could be a good way of forcing the gamer to remain calm under pressure - much better than the stupid (and fake) idea of having the pressure pads heat up (and don’t even get me started on the “trick the nerves” idea!).
I don’t know about the games, but all the rest of the stuff Aries has told us certainly seems more than plausible. Nintendo has used a Wave Race game to launch their previous two home consoles, almost as a “tech demo” type game to show off their new console (realistic water is possibly the most impressive thing tha could be displayed) so this seems possible, if not probable. The new Mario is interesting, especially as Mario 128 isn’t out yet, but it would certainly do the console a whole lot of good if it had a “killer app” from launch (the Mario games are almost always excellent games) - look at the Xbox, it wouldn’t have sold half the amount of consoles it did if Halo hadn’t launched alongside it. Speaking of which, if these rumours of a Retro-developed FPS to rival Halo are true, then I’ll rejoice. I’d be both surprised and not surprised if this were the case. Not surprised because it’s the intelligent thing to do to compete with Microsoft/Sony’s ethos of “mature games”, but also surprised because (having been a Nintendo fan for many years) Nintendo rarely make the “intelligent” choice from a consumer standpoint. The publishers he mentioned (without specific games) are all ones who I’d expect to join the Revolution bandwagon anyway, although Square-Enix is an interesting addition to Nintendo’s ranks.
The rumoured specs are interesting. Having multiple processors working together would certainly give Nintendo an advantage over it’s competitors in terms of processing power. Well, Xbox360 certainly, if not PS3 (as Aries has stated). Either way, I think that the differences between consoles will not be so great as to have any massively noticible difference in terms of visuals this generation - machines built specifically for gaming with the current technology will look awesome no matter who they’re made by!
The thing which is most interesting about all of this is a combination of the voice recognition technology and the online applications of the console. The voice recognition thing, if as advanced as Aries makes it out to be, could well be the revolutionary element of the console (we’ve been told that it’s something that’s simple that everyone can do - everyone can talk!), althought this wouldn’t fit in with the disk theories mentioned above. The online service being touted is very surprising. Given Nintendo’s total reluctance to embrace the world of internet gaming this generation, it would seem short-minded to even consider that it would form the cornerstone of Nintendo’s next-generation battleline. However, in light of Iwata’s recent comments about the FREE online service for both DS and Revolution at the GDC recently, all that Aries has said makes a lot of sense. Nintendo has always been very communication/connection based these past years, and the internet is the ideal way to bring all this to fruition. Having the Revolution act as a wireless hub also sounds like an excellent idea, as it would tempt many people to buy a Revolution to use as one in their home (instead of a regular wireless hub, buy a console + hub for a little extra - many people bought a PS2/Xbox for their DVD playback capabilities mainly). A dedicated Nintendo internet service would be amazingly good news for gamers, especially coupled with a gyroscopic mouse and a headset to communicate with other gamers. The thought of online Mario Kart or Super Smash Bros fills me with anticipation!
Overall, If Nintendo shows off Revolution at E3 with the above features/games then I think they will have done enought to at least compete with PS3 and Xbox 360, if not totally eclipse them. Some of the concepts are strange, alien ones to the general public, but then so was the idea of two screens and a touch screen on the DS - once people have had a chance to play a DS they are much more impressed and so will people be when they have played on Revolution. Nintendo needs a good showing at E3, that much is evident, and we need some concrete details, examples of games in motion, and a look at the console controller if possible. The general consumer is also blinded by numbers. I remember the PS2/GC/Xbox “comparison” sheets in game stores with the PS2’s “90m polygons”, the Xbox’s “120m polygons” and the GC’s “12m actual in-game conditions” claims. Despite being a machine far more capable than the PS2, for reasons such as this, people thought that the GameCube was rubbish (the purple didn’t help next to the sleek black PS2 and Xbox) and ultimately the GameCube suffered. This time, Nintendo needs to make the PUBLIC belive that its console is the best on the market, not the games press. The features will go a long way to achieving that in my opinion, but they also need to show the machine to be capable in terms of raw power in order to sway the opinions of the general public (look at the DS vs PSP - many are tempted to the PSP just because the games look better, and for no better reason than that!).
Anyway, rant over. Discuss :p
May 1st, 2005 at 1:10 pm
if the far-fetched rumor from gamer-girl was true, it might go along with ign’s article about the former NCL president leaving… as the article says he didn’t take his retirement money, saying nintendo needed it… or somthing like that. meh. who knows.

N-ZERO: I probally mischaracterized that a little bit. It won’t be hot enough to get Nintendo into any legal trouble or anything like that. The point of that function is to make the gamer feel uncomfortable, not to hurt them.
DDBinks: Nintendo has always been pretty stubborn in that regard. Although I don’t have a concrete answer to that, I’d be will to bet that the Revolution will not be able to play DVD’s.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:14 pm
Ronn, so these illuisions would basically be a novint falcon kind of thing in your controller handles?
newt eyes (for crtl F)
May 1st, 2005 at 1:14 pm
I’m pretty sure Aries is not Burgess - their way of expressing themself and their written ID is too different.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:24 pm
Aries: So the ‘revolutionary’ part of the Revolution is simple and ordinary. And you go on to mention the touch screen on the DS as an example of something ordinary (touch screen) being used to simplify gameplay.
But why won’t you talk about the storage medium? How is this going to simplify gameplay, if the lasers really do revolve around the disc, the only thing you are going to get is faster load times. I don’t know how this improves or simplifies gameplay. And to say the least, it isn’t very ordinary.
Can you mention anything about that crazy patent Nintendo had awhile back, which Brooke used as a reason the Rev will be using true 3D, will this patent, whatever it is, I don’t fully understand it play a role in the way developers make Rev games, making the development process easier and faster?
You keep mentioning the ‘revolution’ part of the Rev will simplify things and is ordinary. My brain is going crazy trying to think of what it could be, I am going to go nuts if you don’t give us a little something. Or do you not even know?
May 1st, 2005 at 1:24 pm
can people please stop talking about the gamer-girl rumour it is clearly the bigest piss take EVER! the more i read back it becomes more and more obvious the Brooke is Aries, i cant believe i’ve taken so long to realise this!!! Burgess stop lurking in the shadows planning your next post. Ronn can i ask you to talk in more depth about what you honestly think is going on here?
May 1st, 2005 at 1:27 pm
Limeny Snorket: From what I saw, Super Smash Brothers had some very good graphics. The different modes of play add more style to the game in my opinion. This isn’t just a port of one of the older games. My biggest problem with Mario Kart: Double Dash is that it really just feels like a Mario Kart 64 port with better graphics. With Super Smash Brothers for the Gamecube, Nintendo added many different features and levels that weren’t in its Nintendo 64 predecessor.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:28 pm
It looks like “Brooke” is full of crap. Friday came and went, and there was no new franchise or info.
Meanwhile, Aries is looking more and more legit. He knows his stuff, and hasn’t slipped up once.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:29 pm
“On the other hand, it could be a good way of forcing the gamer to remain calm under pressure - much better than the stupid (and fake) idea of having the pressure pads heat up (and don’t even get me started on the “trick the nerves” idea!).”
—
Well ok, you got point there in saying that giving kids the impression that they get burned/hurt by the console is not a very clever idea, but this technology DOES exist. Well, I’m not 100% positive if it works for temperatures as well, but the feeling of surfaces can indeed be simulated already. If only I could retrieve the source to show you. What’s worrying though, is that the real Aries did just say in his last post that the heating up comment was indeed stated by himself which would imply that Nintendo WILL incorporate this technology. IF Aries speaks the truth of course. Well, it could still be that we misinterpreted. Maybe the controllers will just give you the sensation of warmth, not necessarily heat.
“The rumoured specs are interesting. Having multiple processors working together would certainly give Nintendo an advantage over it’s competitors in terms of processing power.”
—
Only problem is, there are no spec rumours concering Revolution whatsoever. Just speculation…no more. But it seems very likely to me that the Rev will indeed feature a multi-core setup since both competitors feature it as well. I’m just curious if Aries has any information about this subject (and also why he’s so reluctant to reveal it other than the “it’s not that important.” argument)
“For example, in some games you may be nervous/edgy so might grip the controller tightly (especially if you’re concentrating on something, a race for example) so with the Revolution controller this would mean that you would press a “button” that you didn’t want to.”
—
Hmm, I dunno about that. When I’m nervous/edgy while playing a game, I do tend to grip the controller more firmly than usual, but I’m not actually trying to squeeze the handles if you know what I mean. I believe Nintendo could very well work around this aspect, by altering the way you actually “press” these buttons. That’s really something for them to work around, and I’m sure they’re able.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:31 pm
MrNintendo: Aries mentioned that patent, it has already been used in a game on the GC…
May 1st, 2005 at 1:33 pm
Here’s a portion of the press release about Nintendo’s deal with Gyration: “Gyration intends to be the first company to produce game controllers enhanced with gyroscopic motion-sensors, which have a tenfold performance increase over accelerometer tilt sensors and add the ability to sense yaw as well as pitch. A gyro-equipped, motion-sensing controller provides a natural method of game control that draws the player into the game and makes game play more enjoyable. The motion sensor can take the place of a typical thumb pressure pad allowing one-handed game play, or can be integrated into a two-handed controller to add a dimension to game playing not possible with traditional game controllers.”
May 1st, 2005 at 1:34 pm
Aries — just curious: after all that you’ve said, what are the top three Revolution features/games/bits of info that have you, personally, the most excited?
May 1st, 2005 at 1:35 pm
MrNintendo: Awhile ago I mentioned that the patent mentioned in Brooke’s article was already used in a game that’s out right now. The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventure uses that patent. That game came out in June of 2004, and the patent was filed a month afterwards.
Caz: Could you fill me in on this rumor?
May 1st, 2005 at 1:36 pm
Aries how advanced will the voice/microphone commands be able to go? Such as playing a sqaud game, telling the sniper to shoot the guy in the bushes to the left or telling bravo team to set perimiter up near the broken down truck. Can the commands be made as specific as that or are the developers limited in only using certain phrases such as- form on me and retreat? Will the gyro controls help make the Rev. an RTS friendly console? Also aren’t you violated a NDA by saying this stuff, thanks in advance for your reply.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:38 pm
why would anyone even care about a dvd plyer anyway? almost everyone has one.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:38 pm
“Ronn can i ask you to talk in more depth about what you honestly think is going on here?”
What do you mean? About the whole Aries/Burgess part? Well I mean, maybe Burgess had a change of heart and thought like: “Hmmm, maybe I’ve revealed the stereoscopic part too early. Might be better to keep it under wraps and let it be a suprise for everyone come E3.” That’s what I think. Still not saying that Aries is in fact Burgess, but it COULD be.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:44 pm
“Ronn, so these illuisions would basically be a novint falcon kind of thing in your controller handles?”
OMG, thank you! That’s the thing I was referring to the whole time!
So yeah, that’s the technology I meant by the whole “feel the game” thing on the controllers.
@ Aries: maybe you’re already replying about this, but could you please give at least a little bit of info on the Revolution’s hardware specs? Doesn’t have to be too detailed, but I just wanna have some kind of idea what to expect, even if it’s not all THAT important in the end (since only the games really matter). It would also help your believability, at least from my part it would.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:46 pm
“Aries Says: Caz: Could you fill me in on this rumor?”
I started that speculation here so I do it myself.
http://www.gamer-girl.org/features/revolution.html
That is supposed to be some NCL leak of some sort where it says that revolution will be an online based console, it sounds very unrealistic, but I mentioned it to add some speculation around your quote about the Revolution being able to evolve\transform.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:47 pm
Ready4theRevolution: Like I said, the voice controls really excite me. They just help make games easier to play and command. It adds so many more possibilities to the mix.
The gyroscopic controls are also very cool. Although I love Halo and the other great FPS on the consoles, the mouse control on PC shooters is much more accurate. Gyroscopic controls will be able to bring that level of precision to the consoles.
The online system is truly amazing. Nintendo really dropped the ball with regards to the Gamecube’s online potential, but they have made it up with the Revolution. People are going to be blown away by this aspect of the system. Like I said, there will be no point in hanging out on GAF or other message boards once the Revolution is released.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:50 pm
Aeris, I’d like to thank you again for spending time in here and revealing your inside knowledge on some details regarding the N Revolution especially. Without bringing this up again in the wrong way, I wanted to ask a question about the GBA2/Evolution. In a source which contained a few details on double sided revolution disks and rotating lasers etc., the article also mentioned the possiblility of NGC software played on the GBA2. Now, i personally don’t believe that, especially after we’ve all been told that the N Revolution plays GC software, but it was hinting at the performance of the new hardware. Nintendo themselves have stressed many times that the DS is not in direct compotition with the PSP, and that the DS is a “third pillar.” hmm…interesting. Obviously, the current GBA isn’t up against the PSP so that only leaves it to the introduction of a new handheld (or something else perhaps?). But how soon though? I remember that you mentioned eariler Nintendo had no plans to release any GBA2/Evolution in the near future and that the DS would be around for quite a while. This leaves the handheld market open for Sony, since again, the DS isn’t in direct compotition with it. Either that or Nintendo have contradicted themselves. Aeris, could you share with us some insight in this?
May 1st, 2005 at 1:51 pm
It seems like Nintendo doesn’t want people with arthritis or hyper sensitive skin to play Rev, since this heat thing, and squeeze thing will make it so they can’t play Rev. Assuming what Aries says it true.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:54 pm
Ares, is Smash Btos Revolution still a side-scroller or is it a fully-3D title, like Soul Calibur or Tekken? And when you said 80’s or 90’s clothing, did you mean Mario in 8 Bit, 16 bit, 64 bit, ect form?
May 1st, 2005 at 1:56 pm
Will the Revolution’s online be as good as Warcraft III’s online, and as simple. I’m amazed that in online games like Halo 2, you join a random map, with a random mode. ect. But in Warcraft III, people host mods that you can join, or you can narrow down your choices for a real game. Is this how revolution will work? I hope so.
May 1st, 2005 at 1:57 pm
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Question!!!!!!!!!!11
Is your game going to use the online feature?
Also, do you know what color scheme Nintendo has decided for all of this?
May 1st, 2005 at 2:00 pm
Puppet Master: The voice controls are advanced, but they have a limit of use. I’m sure they will allow you to control squads in Rainbow Six type games by barking out specific commands. It probally won’t allow for the level of control you explained though. In a FPS, for instance, it could allow gamers to reload ammo, call air strikes, and command NPC’s to a certain extent.
RTS games have never been popular on console games, and I doubt they will become anymore popular with the Revolution. The DS has a much better interface for RTS games. Ages of Empires and Shogun Warriors are two examples of this. I really hope Blizzard supports the DS in the future.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:00 pm
tis is getting crazy and we all know that at the moment its all “ifs and buts”, however aries my main man, or burgess whatever you prefer,
since you are not going to reveal what the actual revolutionary feature is going to be can you confirm whether is or is not one of the following:
- dual sided disc/laser thingy
- gyroscopics, break apart controllers
- dare i say holographic projections “Burgman”??
- the online system(broadband or totally different network) etc
- bio-feedback ( heart rate, heat, different surfaces etc..)
- one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes?
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!CHEERS ARIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May 1st, 2005 at 2:03 pm
Aries, about the online factor, will you need a router to play online with the revolution? Will you need Broadband or cable? During this past generation, I have not been able to play games online because these functions did not work where I live. I hope the Revolution will fix these problems..
May 1st, 2005 at 2:05 pm
It seems like Nintendo doesn’t want people with arthritis or hyper sensitive skin to play Rev, since this heat thing, and squeeze thing will make it so they can’t play Rev.
Well, at least with the Novint Falcon technology, your skin is never exposed to any real heat, so that wouldn’t be a real problem I guess. The squeeze thing might be dependable on the materials used. Not sure though.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:08 pm
So,
With all the talk recently in the past of Nintendo getting involved in film animation, does this tie into the Rev as well?
If you personally believe that the Rev will not play DVD movies, I find it hard to believe that, if Nintendo does in fact develop/produce/release animated feature films, you wouldn’t be able to view them on their own systems. So what I’m saying is, will the format that the Rev uses, similiar to the way the PSP can play movies on UMDs, store Nintendo’s animated films? Or will this be part of their online program, where you could watch the movies through this service?
Unless they aren’t really developing movies at all, but there has been so much talk about it….
Food for thought, any ideas?
May 1st, 2005 at 2:09 pm
Aries said that the thing wont release actual heat, it will just make you feel very uncomfortable.
and the pressure thing will probably have a adjustment option at the start up screen.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:10 pm
Maybe the whole forum hack is a hoax. Remember Aries said that expect a marketing strat. in the essence of the movie “the game”. Also the whole 1 eye, 2 eyes, etc. At Ign, on the nintendo minute, the icon has a pic of mario. The only thing is that the pic is a shot of mario’s eye. Just one eye. hmmmmm……
May 1st, 2005 at 2:11 pm
Aries: Two days ago you wrote “Here is one more feature which the revolution will take advantage of: Revolution:DS connection (WiFi ofcourse)… DS game to Revolution game connection will not be present at anytime due to some quite old Nintendo agreements.” Huh? The rev will take advantage of the Rev:DS WiFi connection, but it can’t be used between games? What else would it be used for? Oh I get it. It will be used to download games from rev to DS but nobody is allowed to create games that make use of the connection. Those licensing agreements are really revolutionary if they say you can download games but not play them.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:15 pm
Aries:
Maybe you didn’t notice it or maybe you simple don’t want/can’t talk about it, but anything about the hardware specs? Like, will the CPU and GPU setup be comparable to the X360 (G5 multi-proc and R500 derivative), or something completely different and custom? Can’t imagine you couldn’t answer a question like that.
Unless you have a very good reason not to (other than the argument that specs aren’t that important).
Also, I’m a bit curious to know how you could reveal all this and not be exposed already. I mean, I can hardly image there are many others who were in the position you were in at NOA, and afterwards left to work for a third party developer under SEGA’s wing working on a third-person action game for Revolution which utilizes the voice-recog, gyro’s, pressure sensitive handles and online play.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:18 pm
Oh, and also…
Aries, or anyone,
Maybe I just missed it, but has anyone heard anything recently again regarding the trademark Nintendo made alittle while back called the
Nintendo V-Pocket?
Anyone know what that really was/is?

I believe that was an imposter who said that. Its easiliy recognized by the way he “talks” in that comment.

Praxis GC games are not backwards spin MiniDVD, that was a myth. They are spun in the normal direction.

Hesistant: “Maybe I just missed it, but has anyone heard anything recently again regarding the trademark Nintendo made alittle while back called the
Nintendo V-Pocket?
Anyone know what that really was/is?”
Had something to do with the DS if I remember correctly. Possibly the download feature at shops or something similar.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:22 pm
The v-pocket is an add on for gba or ds where you will be able to play mp3s. Something like that.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:24 pm
Foster: I’ve heard that rumor many times. I can’t imagine Nintendo using Gamecube software on a handheld. The battery life would be terrible, and it would probally cost more than the PSP.
Right now the PSP is doing very well in the US. It had a much more successful launch than the DS did. But I don’t think Nintendo needs to worry too much this year at least. Outside of GTA and GT, there aren’t many interesting games coming out for the PSP this year. The DS is going to have 10-15 amazing games out in the second half of the year. The holiday lineup will be very impressive. Metroid Hunters, Mario Kart, Animal Crossing, and many other games will be available. Pokemon Diamond will be released in Japan this year, and that will sell very, very well. Next year Pokemon Diamond will be released in the US, and Super Smash Brothers will probally also be out. So the DS isn’t going away anytime soon.
But, like you said, Nintendo will be watching this very closely. If the PSP gains more steam and is able to cross over to the iPod generation, Nintendo might become a little paranoid. I really believe the PSP has the potential to overtake the iPod. This might cause Nintendo to make a product to compete with the PSP, which should be interesting. Nintendo has constantly made negative comments on the media capabilities of the PSP as well as its graphical prowess. Will Nintendo turn around and release a similar product in the future, thus contradicting themselves?
Terrin: It will be a side scroller. And it will allow the use of various costumes like I said earlier.
Bloodman: Our game is going to allow online play in many different modes. For instance, there will be the basic deathmatch mode, as well as team based games like cature the flag. We’re also going to have some other modes, but I’ll talk about them at E3.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:29 pm
It makes sense that the 3-d patent thing was for Zelda: Four swords b/c the pictures on the patent had things that looked like zelda
May 1st, 2005 at 2:29 pm
aries im not sure if you’ve read any of my questions but if you have and havent answered them is it because i have hit a little to close to home regarding the fact that you would be revealing company info that you dont want to take a chance on saying.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:30 pm
maybe the one eye two eyes thing has to due with stereoscopic vision. With one eye it is difficult to sense depth -two eyes allow depth perception.

Caz: The break apart aspect is interesting, but it will not be in the Revolution.
Bio feedback isn’t going to be apart of it either. It sounds too advanced and far fetched for a console in my opinion.
The “one eye…” thing is very interesting to me, but I won’t comment on it too much. It could be involved in Nintendo’s plan, but we’ll see.
I have no idea what the v-pocket will be, or what it will be connected to.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:33 pm
Please take a look at this article posted by shade
http://www.gamer-girl.org/features/revolution.html
May 1st, 2005 at 2:34 pm
sorry for double post. Four eyes may have something to do with glasses/goggles. This could be a hint about a HUD which projected a stereoscopic view.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:35 pm
SemperFi17: Could you ask me again? If it is about specs, NDA’s, or personal information, I’m not going to answer for reasons I mentioned earlier.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:36 pm
You never answered my question about the color scheme. I know its a dumb question but do you have any idea? (color scheme for the main menu, online, and system)
May 1st, 2005 at 2:38 pm
Aries, you mentioned that your game will be able to have 40 different people playing at once. That’s a lot of people. So, will the online fantasies of many gamers come true, a la 30 people racing at once in F-Zero GX?
And, you’ve mentioned the voice system, pressure capabilities, and gyro technologies as all optional things with the Revolution. Is the revolutionary feature on the Revolution optional? Do you feel as if it really defines the console? Is it cool, or kind of “okay, that’s great, but I don’t really think it is cool enough to have as any bit of a necessity”-ish?
May 1st, 2005 at 2:38 pm
just in case you missed my post aries here they are
is the ps3 using the 4.6 ghz 1ppe/8spu setup or better since you say its in a league of its own.
how different does the new duel shock look like. also im guessing sony’s innovation is better and more widespread eyetoy functionality.
how does sony’s online setup coming along?
any chance of a true shinobi sequel that will be on par with ninja gaiden?
and is there achance that tenchu will be any good in next gen(i.e. better AI, better character movement/animations, improved fighting system and world design and interactivity) if its not in deveopment yet are these ideas at least floating around? personally i think they should go a direction with a massive online feudal japan with a bunch of different clans and you have to go on a bunch of spy and assassination missions that included COOP
aside from the sports franchises that are now gone sega hasnt put out many titles with AAA production values
May 1st, 2005 at 2:39 pm
ok ill call you aries and not Burgess ok, could you scroll up and answer my question please?
May 1st, 2005 at 2:39 pm
“Please take a look at this article posted by shade
http://www.gamer-girl.org/features/revolution.html”
Sorry to break it to ya, but we already agreed that the story in that article is some of the biggest bullcr*p ever to grace the Internet (well ok…that’s maybe a little exaggeration :P).
Anyway, I’m beginning to notice a pattern here. Aries doesn’t seem to comment in any way to questions about the storage medium, the hardware specs and questions on why he still isn’t exposed after giving away so much info already. Whatever the reason, it’s a bit fishy.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:40 pm
Aries,
1. What have you heard about the audio capabilities of the NRev? Will Nintendo finally take the plunge into Dolby Digital?
2. Will we be able to use our GameCube memory cards for the backwards compatibility? Or will there be no way to transfer our older saved data to the new storage medium?
3. Aside from gyroscopic aiming, is there anything else you can tell us about Retro’s new FPS IP? Were you the one who said something about the controllers heating up in your hands?
4. You include Sony when you use the word “innovative”, not just Nintendo. Can you elaborate on some of the new innovative features of the PS3 if you know any? And do you feel Revolution will include many more innovative features? Will PS3 have wireless controllers also?
5. Were you the one who mentioned an all new original IP coming from both Eiji Aounoma and Hideo Kojima which would be a futuristic 3rd person action game?
6. Will the LAN capabilities of games like Mario Kart: Double Dash still work on the NRev? Will they be able to transmit over the wifi to other NRev’s and continued tunneling of that game? Will Phantasy Star Online work on the NRev?
7. Will it be possible to play GameCube games that use the bongo drums on the NRev? I guess I’m asking if the system will still contain GCN controller ports?
8. This sort of trails back to question #1. Will the Dolby Pro Logic II feature of some GameCube games still be compatible with the NRev?
9. Will the wireless controllers still contain rumble feedback?
May 1st, 2005 at 2:41 pm
Hmmm forget what I said. I apparantly missed some comment on Aries’ part about this subject.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:41 pm
Manias329: I read some of the article, but it was so out there that I couldn’t read the entire thing.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:44 pm
sorry posted that last one before i read your reply aries
May 1st, 2005 at 2:44 pm
” It will be a side scroller. And it will allow the use of various costumes like I said earlier.”
Interesting. If this means that most of the pallete-swaps are being replaced by Canon variations, then that makes me very happy.
Does this mean that clones like Dr. Mario, Young Link, and Pichu are being absorbed into their Template characters as alternate costumes?
May 1st, 2005 at 2:45 pm
Oh, I do hope they have an awesome black and red color scheme for the Revolution. Black is a mature color that attracts older gamers; red is Nintendo’s main color (as can be seen in their main logo), black and red look simply unbelievably awesome with each other. With black being the dominant color, of course.
And also, I think they should have an alternate color scheme for the system at launch- a platinum and blue color scheme, with platinum [silver] being the dominant color there. I’m hyped. I’m ready. For E3. Despite I feel as if unexplicable forces will never let me reach it.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:47 pm
The Nintendo conference is on the 17th of May. The Tuesday before E3 at 9 AM Pacific Time.
While, I think MS and Sony will brag about their systems on Monday the 16th.
Correct me if I’m wrong.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:51 pm
Well, since you’re not going to comment on questions about specs, NDA’s and personal info (probably since it would all reveal too much…tough I have to look that one up), I’ll go and ask something else:
Is Nintendo still busy developing some interesting GameCube games next to Zelda: Reborn, Fire Emblem (which is already finished actually) and Mario 128? What about the new Kirby game for GameCube, how’s it shaping up? And do you think Geist and Advance Wars: Under Fire are promising games? Any other projects that 1st, 2nd or exclusive 3rd parties are still working on for GameCube (you don’t have to specify the games necceserally)? Oh, and do you have any estimate when Mario 128 might come out (still this year possibly)?
May 1st, 2005 at 2:54 pm
Aries said “We’re also going to have some other modes, but I’ll talk about them at E3. ” Thought you said you were not going to be a E3. And talk to who? The audience at E3 or here with your curious followers.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:54 pm
Maybe the NRev will be able to update the graphics of older games.
May 1st, 2005 at 2:55 pm
aries, can u please tell us whether the revolutionary feature wil be part of how the system works , storage medium or something to do with control?
If u do we wil neva ask anything bout it again
May 1st, 2005 at 2:59 pm
aries, can u please tell us whether the revolutionary feature wil be part of how the system works , storage medium or something to do with control?

I get the feeling he doesn’t want to say because he isn’t sure if Nintendo will talk about it at e3. I think he only wants to mention things he thinks Nintendo will reveal in 2 weeks. If Nintendo still wants to keep some things secret, he wants them to have the benefit of that pleasure.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:01 pm
I’ll just post this again because I find it really interesting, and not one person commented it it (it was probably washed away, with so many people posting so many questions so quickly, its really hard to focus on anything)
With all the talk recently in the past of Nintendo getting involved in film animation, does this tie into the Rev as well? Any thoughts?
If you personally believe that the Rev will not play DVD movies, I find it hard to believe that, if Nintendo does in fact develop/produce/release animated feature films, you wouldn’t be able to view them on their own systems. So what I’m saying is, will the format that the Rev uses, similiar to the way the PSP can play movies on UMDs, store Nintendo’s animated films? Or will this be part of their online program, where you could watch the movies through this service?
May 1st, 2005 at 3:02 pm
“Aries said “We’re also going to have some other modes, but I’ll talk about them at E3. ” Thought you said you were not going to be a E3. And talk to who? The audience at E3 or here with your curious followers.”
OMG!! Aries = Reggie!11!!1!! :O:O
Seriously though, he said he wasn’t completely sure yet if his game would be at E3 but they’ll be preparing for it come next week.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:03 pm
I must be dumb, but i can’t find the “one eye, two eyes” thing on IGN. Can someone please give me a direct link or is this only for insider?
May 1st, 2005 at 3:03 pm
hey Aries, im wondering, are there two different Marios in development?
Theres the footage we all saw at E3 of what looked like a side scroller. Then there is the Mario 128 talk.
Im a big fan of the old days so Im hoping they do have a great side scroller planned, but beefing up Mario 64 would be great too.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:04 pm
Aries said : Will Nintendo turn around and release a similar product in the future, thus contradicting themselves?
You don t know the play Yan ? You had seen revolution s concept and many other things…But you don t know about the play Yan ? sound strange to me…
May 1st, 2005 at 3:05 pm
Bloodman: I’m sure that is still being decided right now.
Limeny Snorket: Everything is optional to the developers. With the DS, developers can make a good game without using the touch screen at all. The same can be said of the Revolution.
SemperFi17: I’m not currently working on the PS3, so I can’t really answer that question. Like I said though, it’s going to be a very powerful piece of hardware. I don’t know much about their online setup either.
Very good guess. The Eyetoy is going to play a major part in the PS3. As you probally know already, a new EyeToy for the PS2 will be shown at E3. With the PS3, Sony is really going to enhance this function.
I think there will be a Shinobi sequel out one day, but that’s just speculation. It’s such a cool series, and I would love to see it reimagined for the next generation.
Paladin69: Yes, Nintendo is going to implement Dolby Digital into the Revolution.
I doubt Gamecube memory cards will be able to work on the Revolution, but I could be wrong.
I gave many details on Retro’s game earlier. It will be similar to StarCraft in the sense that you won’t be forced to play as a human; you’ll be able to pick between two different species. The controller will heat up at a certain part of the game; this function will be used similarly to the rumble feature in most FPS this generation.
Aounoma and Kojimi are working on a Revolution project.
I doubt the Gamecube games like Mario Kart or Homeland will be able to play online with the Revolution, but I can’t confirm that.
The answers to questions 8-9 is yes.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:08 pm
And The V pocket is the Play Yan, it s the same things, but V pocket is the American s name …
May 1st, 2005 at 3:11 pm
Aries? Do you know anything about DemaSked?
May 1st, 2005 at 3:13 pm
ill assume by the lack of a response that you wont answer the questions about Tenchu and Shinobi that they are in some form of development and you cant release any info which i respect but will ask when do you think youll be able to talk about those two IP’s.
but since you are talking about the Rev’s online plan and controller why pass on some knowledge on the ps3’s online plan and how or if they have redesigned the dual shock?
as far as the cell chip goes ill settle for a ” its the same 4.6 ghz chip or its less powerful or more powerful.
id appreciate a response of i cant comment on that if you cant answer any of those things rather than no response.
thanks

Look at top stories. See the big eye.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:17 pm
Aeris I asked twice to no response, so I’ll try a last time …. what games on GC have not been announced that you know about? You said Mario 128 but nothing else.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:18 pm
“Amuroray Says: And The V pocket is the Play Yan, it s the same things, but V pocket is the American s name …”
That does not seem logical to me, becasue the V-Pocket was trademarked by NCL not NOA, if the V-pocket was the Play-yans American name it would been NOA that trademarked that name and not NCL.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:18 pm
i posted the last comment before i saw you posted a response aries
May 1st, 2005 at 3:22 pm
Hey Aries, will the Revoltions controllers be compatible with Gamecube software played on the Revolution? Also, will there be slots in the Revoltion for Gamecube controllers?
May 1st, 2005 at 3:23 pm
Ok, where the heck did this one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes come from?
May 1st, 2005 at 3:25 pm
Aries,
Man I hope you’re the real deal. Dolby Digital makes me happy if true.
I’m amazed Nintendo’s wireless controllers will still contain rumble and heat feedback. Won’t that eat up a lot of juice? I can’t remember if I asked already, but how are the controllers powered? AA batteries or lithium-ion recharging?
May 1st, 2005 at 3:25 pm
ARIES:
Will the Revolution feature wi-max technology?
Will we be able to play multiplayer games with another system using only one media, just like the DS and gba does?
Will the revolution controller be able to play gamecube games without any problems and will the console be compatible with gamecube controllers?
Will the revolution controller feature a slot for future add ons? And how much it will cost?
sorry for bad grammar (english not my first language)
May 1st, 2005 at 3:27 pm
are there other teams in you office or friends and former teams that you know who are working on the ps3 that you talk to regulary that do know and can talk shop about it without being suspicious.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:30 pm
Ronn: Zelda is going to be the best game of 2005; trust me on that. Resident Evil 4 and God of War are very good games, but I don’t see them coming close to Zelda. Fire Emblem is going to be very cool as well. The Pokemon game should be interesting as well.
In my opinion, Geist is a disaster. Nintendo is really rushing this game, and the developers don’t seem ready to make a game like this. I would be willing to bet that Nintendo is just going to get tired of this behavior and release the game ahead of schedule.
I haven’t heard much about Advance Wars for a long time. I think it could become a great game.
I’ve never been a fan of the 3d versions of Kirby, and I doubt the latest version will be any good.
Mario 128 will not be released this year. It might come out early next year, but Nintendo might hold onto it so people can get to play it at E3 2006.
Hesitant: I don’t think Nintendo is going to pursue anime. Hiroshi Yamauchi’s absence tells me that Nintendo probally wont go into that field.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:31 pm
Hey aries, can you reveal whether the revolutions wifi features will have more then just game functions? i.e. will PC’s be able to detect the revolution as a computer/device and allow for data transfer?
Also, can you talk a little more about the Kojima revolution project?
May 1st, 2005 at 3:32 pm
Aries will the Revolution controllers also have the rumble feature like in the Gamecube controller is it replaced with the Gyroscopes instead. Also how many buttons are on the controller altogether?.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:33 pm
Hey Aries, sorry to bother you. I discussed this all briefly with my friends and they’re very interested. A couple questions brought up:
1) How big are the disks? I mean, are they full sized, or miniature? (if you do not know that, otherwise, do you know the capacity?)
2) Does it include a hard drive for storage, or are we going to need to buy mega-memory cards to save demos on?
3) Can you upload music/videos/savegames to or from the computer wirelessly, or through disks (like the XBox can download music from a disk to the hard drive)?
Skip any question that gives away the Revolutionary aspect, of course, but anything you’re willing to share will be much appreciated!
May 1st, 2005 at 3:35 pm
Aries what are the other devs reactions on devolping for each system? like are they excited that theyll be able to put an idea into a game that they cnat do with the other. or the ease of development of the 360 , the amount of extra details and modes that they can use in the ps3 .
basically what are the developers primed over with each systems capabilities.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:36 pm
Another thought just cropped into my head, does the rumble feature of the conrtoller ever interfere with the gyro features?
May 1st, 2005 at 3:40 pm
Aries you ignored my question about DVI and HDMI, and chance for these on Rev.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:40 pm
The revolutionary feature are obviuos if you morons would just read the past interviews of Ninty’s execs. They have already told everyone what they are working on - VR and a User interface which tracks body movements (but no eyetoy - gyro). Why the hell do you all keep wondering what is going on? There is only one way to revolutionize gaming - free users from the controller.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:41 pm
Another thought just cropped into my head, does the rumble feature of the conrtoller ever interfere with the gyro features?
heh, good question. It probably almost should to make it feel more realistic. Guns recoil in real-life after all. I bet that would feel pretty realistic, trying to hold your gun steady, the gun recoiling and heating up all at the same time.
Sounds neat.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:44 pm
Hey Aries, I was wondering about those articles you mentioned that would relate to the revolution. You even linked to the Yamauchi story. How does him stepping down have to do with any of this? Did Yamauchi, along with his outspoken nature, step down becuase of the direction Nintendo is now pursuing? And how are all of these news stories related to the Rev? Thanks
May 1st, 2005 at 3:46 pm
chuck12345: Demasked is a total joke in my opinion. Gamespy is working with Nintendo on bring the DS online, not Chad Paulson.
SemperFi17: I can’t comment on some of the stuff you mentioned because I have no information on that. For instance, I don’t know anything about a new Tenchu. The last one did pretty poorly, so a new one might not come out for awhile. With regards to the PS3, I don’t have many details on it. I’m not working on it right now.
Hollywood: I can think of a few games that I saw in various stages of development for the Gamecube. There is a new Virtua Fighter in development, and another Warioware game as well.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:53 pm
SoVos:
Nintendo has already stated their intention to have monitor hookups. That means either VGA or DVI.
Napster:
Did you even bother reading Aries’ post? There is still a controller. Duh.
May 1st, 2005 at 3:57 pm
Aries: Sorry to push, did you spot my post?
Oh yeah, and it’s about time somebody spoke out about Demasked. lol.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:02 pm
napster doesnt believe Aries.. if aries was fake why would he tell people good job for pulling together to share beliefs and information
May 1st, 2005 at 4:05 pm
Praxis
But VGA isn’t a digital output. DVI is, having DVI will alow both Digital and Analog video out.
I want to know if nintendo will include a Digital video output.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:06 pm
boy people really hate Chad Paulson. Some of you act as if he peed in your corn flakes. lol
May 1st, 2005 at 4:06 pm
Jim WTF are you talking about. I didn’t say anything about Aries. The only things I believe about Revolution are the things which have been said as fact and the things which were discussed in past interviews about where Tendo would be headed in the future. VR and Gyro body control and free “online” play.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:08 pm

The only things I believe about Revolution are the things which have been said as fact and the things which were discussed in past interviews about where Tendo would be headed in the future. VR and Gyro body control and free “online” play. I don’t have any clue as to who Aries is but I guarantee that if I had a bunch of people asking me ridiculous questions I could pop out the same kind answers as he is. Anyone who keeps up with the game industry should know most of these things.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:08 pm

May 1st, 2005 at 4:12 pm
He’s already commented on Mario multiple times. There are three in development: Mario 128 for GameCube, The New Mario Bros for Nintendo DS, and a Mario64-like game for Revolution to introduce the controls.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:13 pm
Oh, one more thing I know to be true…. Tendo is gonna kick some f*cking ass - okay. It is over - no more sony or shitbox. The only reason developers are making games on Shitbox 2 is because MonopolySoft is paying them money to and because they know they can also make a little cash from the retards who will jump onto the Shitbox 2 before they see the other systems.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:15 pm
Oh, I just remembered another Mario question I had myself, though…
Aries, will Luigi be in or playable in Mario 128? Perhaps two-player co-op?
May 1st, 2005 at 4:17 pm
jonnyjon: That won’t be possible, and I am sure Nintendo won’t pursue that function.
Kojima’s project with Nintendo is going to be very grand and bold. It’s not the kind of game Nintendo usually works on. From what I saw and have heard, it will be a mix between Zelda and Ninja Gaiden.
Praxis: The inclusion of a hard drive is still being debated. Developers are hoping that Nintendo does put one in, and I think they will.
I don’t think the Revolution will have those kinds of media functions. I’d be willing to bet that you will not be able to store music on it, and I also would bet it will not play DVD’s.
SemperFi17: I would say for the most part developers are impressed with all three systems. With the Revolution, we are looking at lower development costs and easy development. With the PS3, you are looking at a system that is hard to develop for, but that hasn’t stopped people from working on it. As the PS2 proved, you can make a terrible game and it will sell well. There are some problems with the Xbox 360. Microsoft is forcing developers to make all Xbox 360 games Xbox Live compatible and HD compatible, which is a joke. I was really turned off by this, but it seems many other developers don’t care. There is a feeling out there that Microsoft is going to overtake Sony this generation in the US. I seriously doubt this. I think the PS3 is going to beat the Xbox 360 in the US as well as Japan.
yoshi: His step down from the company signifies change in my opinion. Nintendo’s attitude is changing. Reggie reinvented Nintendo single handedly last year at E3, and I expect that “momentum” to continue in the future.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:23 pm
nellspot: There are three Mario games in development. Mario 128, Super Mario Brothers DS, and a Revolution version.
Word Assassin: Luigi will be in the game, but not as a playable character.
SoVos: Could you ask the question again? Thanks.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:23 pm
Mario: The Mario side scroller is for the DS. I believe Mario 128 is going to be an Epic 3D Mario with an old-school like feel. It will allow the ease-of-play that the 2d marios had but incorporate it into 3D.
Nintendo Online: You will not need a Router for the “online” aspect. Nintendo is setting up their own Network by satellite or through cell-phone towers. The DS will be the first mass-market fully functional video-phone. That is what the Demasked is about. Demasked/unveiling - you will be able to “know” who you are palying against. People’s identities/personalities will be demasked. At the moment there is a veil over each of us. I can’t really interact with any of you the way I would with one of my friends. “Who Are You?”
May 1st, 2005 at 4:24 pm
Hey, Aries
I know you don’t want to give away too much info on the Revolution, but can you give us a very vague idea as to what the “revolutionary feature” might be? Is it a peripheral, built-in hardware, or what? Right now it could be anything from ROB 2 all the way down to a toaster oven.
Thanks.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:26 pm
Aries i bet you have heard of bubble laser can you explain and tell me if it will be of importance in the Revolution?
May 1st, 2005 at 4:26 pm
Change, yes, but I hope its a good change. Nintendo is known for giving great quality support, and that is one thing they CAN’T change.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:31 pm
Aries, would Rev have DVI (Digital) or HDMI out for video?
May 1st, 2005 at 4:33 pm
aries, how much will the revolution cost???
May 1st, 2005 at 4:34 pm
Aries Do you know Goddar ?
May 1st, 2005 at 4:35 pm
aries im sure you know this but the reason why the last two tenchu’s didnt do well because they were ass. so was Nightshade. the teams that are in charge of those IP’s need to get their heads out of theyre asses going into next-gen. they’ll have no excuses for making a subpar game.
if they do make a new tenchu they need to take some ideas from splinter cell in that a more down to earth storyline(you dont need to have demons and magic just more intrigue and deception in fuedal japan politics) better character models that look as good as sam fisher or ryu hayabusa as well as more interactive environments. better combat system and they need to trash the zip line grappling hook and be more realistic in that you need to toss the hook and climb it like a normal rope. AI needs a complete revamp. realtime damage from fights and falls that impair your abilities and leaves blood trails. and then have a online world of japan where you can travel to different cities and towns to complete intel gathering, rescue, and assassination missions against different warlords or online ninja clans. and have multiplayer coop where you have to infiltrate masive towns and castles along with customizable ninjas with different techniques and weapons styles.
if you happen to know some of the dev team that worked on it and i didnt mean to insult them because it their may have been a low budget they had to work wtih and/or time constraints (sega them the resources they need). and if you do know some of them pass this on to them for the same of at least trying to restore a once great franchise.
as i commented earlier sega has a real lack of AAA titles that you could rate a 9.0 or better. publish and suppport some great games please SEGA.
thanks aries
May 1st, 2005 at 4:35 pm
Thanks!
Can’t wait for E3. This should be quite interesting.
I appreciate you taking the time to answer the questions of us ‘little people’, Aries.
Wonder how much of the original stuff the new Mario game will have…Mushrooms? Fire flowers? Capes? Tails? (
May 1st, 2005 at 4:36 pm
Aries, another quickie. Do you know anything about this Mario Dunk Shot patent that Nintendo have filed? WIll is be something for the GC? DS? Revolution?
May 1st, 2005 at 4:37 pm
Aries: Was roaming the IGN boards when I came across this….
http://ds.advancedmn.com/article.php?artid=1860
Namco is going to merge with Bandai.
Care to comment on the situation?
May 1st, 2005 at 4:41 pm
What the heck? My post got cut off halfway through.
I was saying…
^
I wonder how much of the original stuff the new Mario game will have? Mushrooms, fire flowers, capes, tails, warp flutes, pipes, etc? Or Mario 64?
^note all this is me speculating, not a question
BTW Aries, do you have any information whatsoever at all about Nintendo even CONSIDERING making PDA software for the DS?
May 1st, 2005 at 4:48 pm
SoVos: I am pretty sure it wouldn’t use those features.
zeldafan: I don’t know. I’m sure Nintendo will do it’s best to sell the system at a lower price than the PS3.
jonnyjon: Could you provide a link to this?
MrNintendo: It’s not a big story to me, despite Nintendo’s ties to Bandai. Nintendo and Namco have a very good relationship.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:51 pm
Questions from other people:
1) When do you anticipate a release date? How long until your game is finished?
2) When do the NDA’s with nintendo expire?
3) Do you need game testers?
May 1st, 2005 at 4:52 pm
Aeris, so Virtua Fighter and a new Wario Ware …. anything else???
May 1st, 2005 at 4:52 pm
Praxis: I haven’t heard anything about the PDA rumor. Nintendo has stated many times that the DS is just a gaming device, so we’ll see.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:54 pm
Has anyone asked anything about Pokemon XD?
As in, the style of game, graphical style, release date, etc
May 1st, 2005 at 4:55 pm
Aries i need my question answered. Do you know about the bubble laser and if it will be used?
May 1st, 2005 at 4:56 pm
The stuff about the Mario Dunk Shot i found here:
http://www.n-philes.com/?id=1051
It’s also on cube-europe as their newest news item.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:56 pm
Isn’t Soul Caulaber 3 coming out exclusevly for ps2? That has got to be the biggest piece of shit Namco has ever pulled on Nintendo. Just having Link in it makes it a must have. Hell, add Ganondorf and mabey Sheik and you got a game that would sell millions. The Zelda fanbase is larger than the world really thinks.
May 1st, 2005 at 4:57 pm
Nintendo should have spent a few dollars more and included digital output for video, this would have improved picture quality. If it could play DVD this also would be a good selling point, since digital out dvd players are selling for around 300 dollars.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:00 pm
aries, i dont know if this has been asked but is nintendo developing a new zelda for the rev. that will be a launch title. also what do know about mario bros. ds? thank you very much
May 1st, 2005 at 5:01 pm
aries is the game you are working on getting the AAA title support like great voice acting, ambient background music, control and camera issues(i.e. no clumsy control issues and bad camera angles), and a good storyline. and are we finally through with clipping with the advancement of collision detection and physics software and hardware.

Actually no…Soul Calibur 3 is coming exclusively to the PS2 for THIS generation but they’ve said there are Revolution and XBox 360 ports of it coming as well.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:04 pm
I wonder how much of the original stuff the new Mario game will have? Mushrooms, fire flowers, capes, tails, warp flutes, pipes, etc? Or Mario 64?
I would also like to know this. Will Mario 128 be more of a throwback to the traditional, or will it be weird like Isle Delphino and a water pack?
May 1st, 2005 at 5:04 pm
Praxis: Development for our game will be finished in October 2006. I would expect both the Revolution and the PS3 to be released in November 2006. E3 2006 is going to be dominated by both consoles.
NDA’s expire at different times. For instance, the NDA for a game like Fight Night 2 would be much shorter than one for the new Zelda game.
No, we don’t need game testers.
Hollywood: That’s basically it. There are plans to port Mario Kart GP to the Gamecube, and a new Sonic game is in development, but that’s it. I’m sure Nintendo has been working on many other games that I don’t know about. In my opinion though, Nintendo has given up on the Gamecube. They are betting on Zelda and Mario 128 to save it, but that just isn’t possible.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:05 pm
Aries,
Do you think that Nintendo will be able to produce enough quality software across Game Boy, Nintendo DS, Gamecube and Revolution, or are they spreading themselves too thin?
If third-party support for Rev is only as good as it is for Gamecube (at least, at around launch), do you think Nintendo will be able to keep the ship going?
And along those lines, do you think we’ll ever see Nintendo buy a Capcom or Namco, something to bolster their lineup of exclusive titles?
May 1st, 2005 at 5:05 pm
SoVos: Im sure all that stuff would push production costs higher leading to a more costly final price. Nintendo has always been about the games first, not about multi-functionality. Although i DO admire Microsofts obsession with uber-high-quality-everything, it only going to make thing more expensive which is either going to mean higher prices for the consumers, or the manufacturers making a loss.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:05 pm
When Nintendo says they are gonna launch to compete against Sony, do they intend to launch on the same day/week as the PS3? They did with the Xbox, do they intend to do that again?
May 1st, 2005 at 5:08 pm
Praxis: I haven’t heard anything about the PDA rumor. Nintendo has stated many times that the DS is just a gaming device, so we’ll see.
yeah that rumor came from sp0ng. Have I mentioned how much I hate sp0ng? lol
May 1st, 2005 at 5:14 pm
Answer my question aries.
will it involve bubble laser
May 1st, 2005 at 5:15 pm
Nintendo is gonna have really poor sales next year. How big of an impact, none can say.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:15 pm
Aeris what other games do they have in development for DS? You have no said much on that. Also is there still games in development for the Game Boy Advance? Which ones, if so?
May 1st, 2005 at 5:16 pm
Aries: Will the Revolution consist of virtual reality and control which allows us to interact with the game as we would in real life through gyroscopic contol?
May 1st, 2005 at 5:18 pm
whats a bubble laser
May 1st, 2005 at 5:21 pm
Aries i will ask you again
Will bubble laser be in the revolution in any form
May 1st, 2005 at 5:25 pm
Aries,
You never answered my question. Was it because I phrased it so too much information would be given away?
I’ll try a different way of saying.
You’ve said the “revolutionary feature” makes game playing “simple.” Does that refer to a specific part of the machine, or to the machine as a whole?
Thanks.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:26 pm
Primehunter: I haven’t heard anything about that.
zeldafan: Yes, a new Zelda for the Revolution is in development. I doubt Nintendo would released the game early in the Revolution’s life though. With a new Mario game and Super Smash Brothers, the Revolution will have a very impressive launch from a 1st party perspective. Nintendo will probally save some of their other big titles for 2007.
Super Mario Brothers is a 2d side scroller, and it will use many different aspects seen in older Mario games. For instance, Mario will have many of his powers seen in Super Mario Brothers 2.
SemperFi17: We are working on having all of those features in our game. The music isn’t done yet, but everything else is currently being worked on. It will be a very polished game.
I still don’t understand why Soul Caliber 3 is a PS2 exclusive; it doesn’t make any sense whatsoever. Sony must of paid them or something for the rights.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:31 pm
aries, from what i can imagine it seems like using gyroscope to control a fps would be very difficult. what are the capabilities of the revolution that your game will support?
can you explain how this kind of control can work in a game (do you have to move your arms up and down?)
if the revolution doesn’t support gcn memory cards will you be able to save a gcn game onto a revolution memory card?
May 1st, 2005 at 5:31 pm
3) Blu-Ray is NOT easily made backwards compatible with DVD. GameCube games are backwards spun DVD’s. Since we are going to have backwards compatability, backwards-spun HD-DVD seems much more realistic.
Actually, they aren’t spun backwards. They spin the same direction as any other optical disc. Verify it on a Dreamcast, PlayStation or portable CD player.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:35 pm
Aries, how did you come to witness video footage of Revolution games from companies overseas, like Super Smash Bros. Revolution from Hal Labs? And for that matter, how did a detail as “trivial” as Falco being omitted come to your attention? I’m just curious.
About the controller warming up… I wonder, does the controller warm up when guns overheat? You know, like if you fired a machinegun for too long? That’d be a nice touch if you ask me.
Do you know of any of the new pokemon from Diamond and Pearl? If so, could you describe them and everything you know about them? Also, have you heard any of the English names they’re throwing around at NOA for said pokemon?
Do you know who the mysterious cloaked figure is from the new Zelda game that’s on the cover of the new EGM? Do you know anything about the theme, story, or villain of the new Zelda? And do you know anything about the DS Zelda game, which is purportedly a Four Swords title much like the GCN one but online?
Which games do you believe will be showed at E3 2005 for the Revolution? What things do you think will be unveiled at the press release? When you say that Nintendo will roll out a Trojan horse and that we shouldn’t judge it on the first day, does this mean Nintendo will have a deliberately sucky showing on the first day of E3? Because I could see that backfiring. Also, will any of the games be playable for the press? It seems like something like the pressure sensitive controls of Wave Race or gyro aiming of Retro’s game should be felt to be understood.
Also, any word on what working title Retro’s “Halo killer” has? And could you tell us more about Vectorman? Is it polished by Nintendo standards; you know, really tight gameplay? Granted, you’d be a little partial to your own work, but nonetheless…
May 1st, 2005 at 5:40 pm
“Actually, they aren’t spun backwards. They spin the same direction as any other optical disc. Verify it on a Dreamcast, PlayStation or portable CD player.”
I meant from the inside to the outside, not spun, sorry. Wrong wording.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:43 pm
Ready4theRevolution: The DS, Game Boy Advance, and the Revolution are going to see great 1st party support. Nintendo has many employees, so I wouldn’t worry about over extension.
I believe the Revolution will receive better 3rd party support than the Gamecube; that shouldn’t be hard to achieve. With online play and great graphical power, I don’t see why developers would shun it.
If I was in charge of Nintendo, I would look into buying Capcom. That’s just my opinion, of course. I don’t see them buying a large company like that.
Hollywood: For the DS, there are many games in development. Square Enix is heavily supporting the DS. A new Mario Party, a new Zelda game (not the Four Swords), and Fire Emblem are also in development.
Master of Smash: It involves one main function with regards to the controller, as well as another one not on the controller. That is all I’ll say on that issue.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:45 pm
Phew. Finished reading up to this point. *Placemarker*
May 1st, 2005 at 5:45 pm
i know all the systems are going to be capable of showing off great visuals but as far was graphical capability but how noticable will the difference be
rev to 360
ps3 to 360
and ps3 to rev
a simple xbox to ps2 explanation will be fine if you can answer that
and id be happy with a
May 1st, 2005 at 5:47 pm
The World of Mana game just announced by Square…
Is that the DS game?
And, is it going to be an online “world”?
Any idea when the DS online world is rolling out, anyway?
Wouldnt a Mana game online be awsome either way?
May 1st, 2005 at 5:51 pm
No problem.
May 1st, 2005 at 5:53 pm
Aeris, what GBA games still in development?
May 1st, 2005 at 5:54 pm
aries would it be safe to say that if silicon knights is responsible to develop vectorman that you work for a company that is being subcontracted by silicon knights to do some of the work
May 1st, 2005 at 5:56 pm
Aries. Is there anything that you can tell us new. Your last post are just rehashes of post before. Plus, people keep asking question that you already has answered in past post. Anything new.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:05 pm
Whats the eariliest date (by your estimation) that we could see nintendo ds online? Also how many online features will the ds and revolution share?
May 1st, 2005 at 6:07 pm
aries: i notice you keep mentioning minority report in relation to the gyroscope and that the revolutionary feature is something we use often but its never been applied to gaming. and u mentioned doodling with the touch screen about the DS…what i’m getting at is: will hand gestures be a big part of the control system?
also, will Factor 5 again provide the sound tools
May 1st, 2005 at 6:10 pm
aries, i do believe everything that you have said, and i want to thank you for giving me something to look at before i go crazy waiting for E3.
you have said that you might give a hint at who you are at E3. can you give us a hint of how you might do this?
when will zelda gcn be released? and i would really like to know what someone asked, who is the hooded character on the cover of electronic gaming magazine???
May 1st, 2005 at 6:13 pm
zeldafan: You could use it in games where navigation is important; Star Fox would be a great example. It would allow perfect control for it. With regards to FPS, you would use it to aim; it will not be diffulcult at all. Right now, we are thinking about using it to navigate vehicles.
Juno Reactor: I have been to Kyoto a few times. Also, NOA employees are not left out of the loop with regards to Nintendo’s plans. I love Super Smash Brothers, so I noticed the various changes in the game.
I don’t know any of the new, American names of the Pokemon. I still have trouble remembering the names of the ones in Sapphire. I do know that Diamond is going to be a very, very good game. Imagine playing as Ash from the cartoons. That will become possible in the online mode of the game.
The new Zelda is very interesting. Nintendo still hasn’t even decided on whether this one follows the Wind Waker or precedes Ocarina of Time. That’s one of the reasons that there isn’t a title right now. The latest issue of EGM gives some great details on the game though. This one will be a lot bigger than Ocarina of Time, and it will also control better. Although music doesn’t play a huge role in it, it will be incorparated. I won’t give out too many details on it, though. Zelda is almost a sacred franchise, and I’d hate to give spoilers. I’m glad I don’t know everything about it. The character on the cover is not a new character, though; it isn’t Zelda either.
I’m sure Mario, Retro’s FPS, Wave Race, Square Enix’s RPG, Camelot’s RPG, Sega’s game, and Zoonami’s game will be there. I don’t think many other games will be shown though; we’ll see in 15 days.
I seriously doubt anything will be playable on the Revolution or the PS3. In my opinion, the press should be able to play around with the Revolution in order to be able to explain it to the public.
I think our game has very good controls; that was our main goal in the beginning of development. We are incorparating many different things into the game such as vehicles and devastating weapons. In order for these things to work, you need good gameplay.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:17 pm
Aries, I remember seeing a video for a mario game called like Super Mario Super S or something last week…and it had a cel-shaded look. Have any idea what this was?
May 1st, 2005 at 6:18 pm
I doubt Aries will tell us anything more than what he has. His first posts already revealed way to much. We are getting ourselves way to hyped for a machine that wont be released in a year. Thats a whole year of torture and waiting. A whole year with nothing on your mind until its in your living room.
Thanks for the info Aries, but you are torturing us!!!!
May 1st, 2005 at 6:22 pm
Aries:
Are you saying that all XBox 360 games will have to be online? That’s a pretty stupid idea on MS’s part.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:23 pm
Geist! Overrated??? I’m stunned. I really hoping it will be really good. Judgin from the videos, it looks to have great physics. Does Geist have bots in multiplayer? Even if it does, are they as customizable as Perfect Dark’s? Speaking of Perfect Dark’s bots, the game came out forever ago, and to this day no FPS has been able to recreate the amazingness of them. Why is this?
May 1st, 2005 at 6:26 pm
SemperFi17: I would say the Xbox 360 to Revolution graphical gap is somewhat like the Gamecube to Xbox gap. This will no doubt change in the future. The PS3 to Revolution/Xbox 360 gap will be similar to the Xbox to PS2 gap.
chuck12345: The original plan was for a October 2005 launch with Animal Crosssing. This could have been pushed back by now, though. In November and December Metroid Hunters, Mario Kart, and Pokemon Diamond (in Japan) will be released.
bleed 4or me: I gave out a lot of information a couple days ago, and now I’ve just been trying to answer questions. Many of these questions have brought up new information.
Sebbo: Currently, Factor 5 has no plans on supporting the Revolution. I would guess that later in the future this will change, though. We’ll see.
zeldafan: I might just refer to a certain movie for no reason; we’ll see though. I don’t want to give many details for obvious reasons.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:28 pm
You know, I have a feeling that in this week’s mailbag at IGN, Matt will answer a question about you, Aries. It seems unavoidable. I wonder what he will say.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:28 pm
So, Eiji Aonuma is working on a DS zelda, plus a revolution zelda and a cyborg/ninja game with…. Hideo Kojima and at the same time trying to finish the gamecube zelda for this holiday… riiight
And at first, the revolutionary mechanism was ordinary, than it has something to do with the laser (???) and now it’s something on the controller…
May 1st, 2005 at 6:31 pm
By the way, Thanks alot for being so informative ans patient Aries.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:34 pm
Indeed. Aries deserves thanks. If he were just making this up, he could’ve left by now. Or he is just devoted to deluding people.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:35 pm
Aries, you better refer to the movie ‘The Game’ at E3, that would be amazing and hilarious.
If you don’t, well, it wouldn’t be very nice.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:40 pm
Crusader: I already know what he’s going to say about me. It will be a very interesting mailbag, to say the least.
Petarded: I’ve never heard of this, which is suprising. I don’t see why a story like that wouldn’t be covered in the media.
Nara Shikamaru: Like I’ve said many times, wait until E3. Aonuma’s work schedule is nothing compared to Miyamoto’s.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:43 pm
The character on the EGM is vaati, look at the symobol on the black robe
May 1st, 2005 at 6:43 pm
“Crusader: I already know what he’s going to say about me. It will be a very interesting mailbag, to say the least.”
Do you know him?
Or did you ask the question yourself to stir things up?
Just how well connected are you?
Def. more than a developer, since your too well informed. Probably marketing/advertising. How far deep is this rabbit hole…
May 1st, 2005 at 6:45 pm
bleed 4or me: No
May 1st, 2005 at 6:45 pm
Oh, and Aries, you said tehre a enw zelda in development, but not four swords. So, are there 2 zelda games being worked on on DS? Since it is already confirmed that there will be 4 swords on ds…
May 1st, 2005 at 6:46 pm
Aries,
Have you heard anything about Super Monkey Ball 3? For a while it was thought to be for GameCube…I think this would be a perfect fit for gyroscopic controls.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:47 pm
Since the new zelda will follow link form age 16 and progress as he gets older. I’m willing to bet the “cloaked” figure is an older link.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:52 pm
Or Adult Shadow Link.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:53 pm
aries thanks for answering from reading this blog its seems like little kids pulling on your pant leg asking questions nonstop i am grateful and i am sure the others asking questions are too.
anyways with the graphical distinction between each system do you think devs who are making multiconsole games will work on them independantly to take advantage of the positive features of each system rather than developing for one console and giving the other consoles subpar ports or graphically the same game on all three even if one of the ports are going to the stronger system. i know money is an issue but id like to see devs try to get the most out of every system even if it is a port.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:53 pm
And now that I hear Aries knows about the mailbag, its a perfect time to see if hes a liar or not
May 1st, 2005 at 6:55 pm
Wait a minute, you say the Xbox 360/Revolution gap will be like the Xbox/Gamecube one? That’s not what you said at the beginning. You said the Revolution would be much more powerful than the Xbox 360…
May 1st, 2005 at 6:55 pm
Aries: How do you see Nintendo Revolution VS XBOX 360 and PS3????
Do you think Revolution will have more fame than the PS3 and XBOX 360???
What do you know about the new Smash Bros game????
May 1st, 2005 at 6:55 pm
I believe in Aries. Hey, my birthday is april 4th. Which makes me an aries.
May 1st, 2005 at 6:58 pm
This is going to be my last post for awhile. I would like to thank and apologize to Brooke; he has an amazing site, and I have had a great time here. Outside of some impersonaters and spammers, we haven’t had many problems.
As a Nintendo fan, I hated seeing that few people were hyped for the Revolution. It seemed like everyone was busy talking about the Xbox 360 and “the cell”. This wasn’t fair. So I decided to share some of the information I have on the Revolution. I think this decision has rekindled the hype in the console. Breaking NDAs really wasn’t a concern too me; I just want to see Nintendo become respected in the gaming community again. Although I love many of Sony and Microsoft’s games, there has always been a special place in my heart for Nintendo’s classic game. There will never be a series as acclaimed or respected as The Legend of Zelda. There will never be a video game mascot bigger or more recognizable as Mario. Ocarnia of Time is easily the best game I have ever played; Final Fantasy 7 is a distant second.
I hope that the gaming community will regain more fire and hope as E3 approaches. This is easily going to be the best showing in the expo’s eleven year history. Last year, Reggie really brought out the 16 year old Nintendo fan boy in me; his voice and charisma was contagious. When I think of the future of Nintendo, he is one of the first people that comes to my mind. It’s great to see the company become more of a competitor. The Sega vs. Nintendo battle of the 90’s were amazing, and they really helped the gaming world. I would love to see the gaming world get back to this.
E3 is 15 days away, and I can’t wait to share even more information. I have had a truly great time here. It’s always great to connect to the people who have made the gaming industry what it is today. I look forward to talking more at E3. Until then, I probally won’t be able to post here. Next weekend I might be able to get away, but that’s it. I also hope IGN starts releasing some of their information next week as well. It will be an exciting time for all gamers. Everyone will have something to look forward to. So until E3, I’d like to say goodby to you guys. It’s been fun, and I’d love to do this again.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:01 pm
Aries,
Do you know if the Revolution will still use old GCN controllers to be backward compatible? Or does it seem the controller will be a Wavebird with all the new stuff added?
May 1st, 2005 at 7:02 pm
Thank you Aries, best of luck with your future.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:03 pm
Bi Aries, mention “the game” at E3
May 1st, 2005 at 7:04 pm
Thanks for all the information and your patience with us!
May 1st, 2005 at 7:04 pm
Thanks Aries.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:04 pm
We can’t thank you enough, Aries, for “rekindling the hype” within us. Hype is half the fun, and with all of the negative Revolution “news” that was coming out, this has been a beautiful insight into the truth, and awesomeness, behind the Revoltion.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:05 pm
Thanks a lot aries. I was always hyped for rev. and its nice to share info that has made me more excited as well as others. Nintendo will own e3. Thanks again.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:06 pm
LOL!! “the game”……..one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes……heehee harhar
May 1st, 2005 at 7:07 pm
thanks Aries, real or fake. you have done nintendo and nintendo fans a service. bringing back the much need hype for the system. I trully hope all you have stated is true and, I hope to see more exciting things at E3. for me youo info has being
very consistent and accurate to what I myself as an informeed gamer knows. I thnak you again and hopefully next week ign gives us some more things and also you can post more next weekend.
Thank
Thunde Emperor

See ya Aries. And thanks for posting what you knew. If Nintendo did this kinda thing more directly with the consumers, they would be in a better position. Don’t know if we’ll ever hear from you again, but you have become a legend for gamers.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:13 pm
Thanks Aries.
If anything, you’ve rallied some of the faithful back to the flock.
The hardcore has been stirred.
Best of luck in all your gaming endeavors, and please come back and give us a clue as to what your game is at E3 so when I’m at the show, I’ll be sure as hell to check it out.
Later ya’ll… till next weekend? Haha.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:21 pm
Also big thanks to you, Brooke, for giving us the occasion to share some information, despite all the spamming!
May 1st, 2005 at 7:30 pm
You know, I have a feeling that in this week’s mailbag at IGN, Matt will answer a question about you, Aries. It seems unavoidable. I wonder what he will say.
The next two weeks will be very interesting indeed if all of this is true. I appreciate all the info Aries as does everyone else here. Thanks for taking the time man.
May 1st, 2005 at 7:34 pm
Damn, posted a little too late. Damn this 56k modem!
May 1st, 2005 at 8:27 pm
Thanks for everything, Aries!
We really appreciate the fact that you were so patient and tried to answer every question you could, despite being bombarded from all sides by us rabid fanboys
You accomplished you’re goal- we’re psyched for E3
May 1st, 2005 at 8:36 pm
lol
you know, the last couple of years X-mas for me just came and passed like any other day, the hype that i used to have about it was gone
but now, i think i am feeling like i used to feel when i was youner and it was december, counting the days until the big day
I guess all of this great rumors, the fact that it could be truth or just make-believe, they all got me hyped up, so even if its not quite like what has been told here from Aries, i would still thank him, for this really nice feeling, the hype.
May 1st, 2005 at 8:50 pm
Hopefully Matt answers the letter I sent him in the mailbag
May 1st, 2005 at 9:33 pm
MAJOR thanks, Aries — like you said, my Nintendo heart is beginning to beat like old times!
May 1st, 2005 at 9:54 pm
If it’s true he is a developer, why doesn’t he know if it have and hdd, disc size etc, I mean if he is the one making a game he would know these things because its vital to know your limitation
May 1st, 2005 at 10:03 pm
Happy Easter, Aries. My fellow Greek.
May 1st, 2005 at 10:15 pm
Thanks for the Info Aries………..As a Nintendo fan i am overjoyed by the thought of all these ideas and games coming my way in the near future. U have restored any lost faith I had in Nintendo and hyped me up for E3……….oh and good luck! on the game your developing!!.

For disk size, I don’t think he ever said he doesn’t know…maybe I missed it, but I think he just never answered that one. Didn’t someone say (was it Aries?) that the media had something to do with the Revolutionary aspect?
For hard drive, he says Nintendo hasn’t told them yet. This is actually reasonable…
1) These are alpha dev kits.
2) Fine, don’t add hard drive support, what difference is it going to make if you have to add a line of code to save to the hard drive when beta dev kits come in a couple months?
May 2nd, 2005 at 12:41 am
Firstly, thank you Aries for all you have shared with us - the Revolution needed some hype what with all the Xbox360 leaks recently, and you information as definately achieved that.
Also, I believe that he knows far more than he is letting on. His whole style in “answering” all the questions about people’s guess at the revolutionary aspect - double sided disks et al - do have a certain “drop the subject” feel to them. He seemed especially reluctant to talk about the specs - this either means, IMO, that they are not that great (see Nintendo downplaying the technical capabilites of the DS vs the PSP) or that they are mind bogglingly amazing. Here’s hoping for the latter
May 2nd, 2005 at 2:18 am
The secret of the revolution is interaction with your close space (dining room…)….4 videos camera and other things…sorry for bad english
May 2nd, 2005 at 2:43 am
I don’t know whether to be glad or angry at all this hype (i’ve had a lot of work to do lol and this has been a huge distraction)
Either way even though i doubt you’ll read this Aries i had to throw in my thanks aswell
May 2nd, 2005 at 3:01 am
thanks Aries
May 2nd, 2005 at 3:24 am
Thanks again Aries, and good luck with your projects. You’re always welcome to share some of your information and to discuss gaming as a whole, and I think you achieved your goal; at least the hardcore gamers are starting to take notice of this great soon-to-be-unveiled machine! And when you get the core group on board, everyone else will soon follow. If anything, Nintendo should be grateful, I think these unveilings have done them much more good than harm.
Looking forward to hearing from you in the near future,
Waltuo
May 2nd, 2005 at 3:27 am
Many thanks to you Aries!
Yay to you! *hugs* ¦D

May 2nd, 2005 at 3:27 am
Well, Aries, It’s been real. You’ve been patient enough to answer an unending torrent of questions over the past few days, yeah- even with all the spamming and impersonating and all that. For everyone on this site who wanted to know most especially about the Revoultion you’ve really got us all hyped up again. Seems there’s reason for all Nintendo fan boys to proudly rejoice once again. Wishing you all the best of luck in your future Aries. Um-hmh- All the best.
May 2nd, 2005 at 3:34 am
mayb someone should do up a list of things he refused to comment on?
so far there is:
- the specs
- double-sided discs (actually, just about anything to do with the disc)
- i asked a couple of times about using hand gestures to control games ala minority report
- who he works for (obviously) and what position he held at NOA
- *THE* revolutionary feature
- the big secret behind mario 128
and does anyone else think that when he answers a question about one thing in particular where his reply seems to be on the bad side of things, then he finishes off with “we’ll see” that he’s kinda being a tease about it?
May 2nd, 2005 at 4:35 am
Sniff. He ignored most of my questions.
May 2nd, 2005 at 4:43 am
But thanks.
May 2nd, 2005 at 5:04 am
Aries, thank you so much for giving us something to feel good about. Even for the next generation, all the titles seemed to be announced for Xbox360 and PS3, again leaving Nintendo out of the loop. Now, I’m so glad that, if this is true, Nintendo will be back at the top next generation. *crosses fingers*

May 2nd, 2005 at 5:27 am
I hate to inject doubt into this after the good conversations we’ve had for the past couple of days. Especially since Aries probably won’t be around to prove himself once more (but maybe that is proof enough that he’s busy on his game, heh, or maybe not)
But out of all the things mentioned, after discussing this with some people, the part about the controllers getting hot. Is it just me or does that seem a little “gimmicky” to anyone else?
Unless this new form of feedback could create other sensations as well besides just getting warm…it just seems like kind of a useless feature.
May 2nd, 2005 at 5:28 am
Hey guys, did you see this?
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v704/fauljosh/touchscreen.jpg
What do you think about it? Real or fake?
May 2nd, 2005 at 5:36 am
But I think it´s fake!
May 2nd, 2005 at 5:39 am
@Genecyst, looks like a home dev-like interface, which is interesting, but doesn’t have anything to do with the revolution :]
May 2nd, 2005 at 5:45 am
@Xren
Yeah, I think (and hope) you´re right. I wouldn´t be happy with this kind of controller!
May 2nd, 2005 at 6:05 am
The man has said that the Revolution won’t have a touch screen.
May 2nd, 2005 at 6:15 am
I’m not really liking the sound of heating up pads, but then again i don’t fully understand how the system works. Hopefully all will be revealed at E3
May 2nd, 2005 at 6:48 am
I have been following this thread for a time, and have read all of Aeris’ posts. I do not doubt his claims, save for one thing that he said. He claimed that what is happening in the industry leading up to E3 is akin to the plot of the movie “The Game”. It made me wonder (and I hope this is not true) that he might be shining us all on. Think about this:
He says all these things about the Rev. that whets our appetite; games, controller ideas and more. He then says that Xbox 360 and PS3 are a different style of console. What if he is a plant by Sony or Microsoft? What if, when E3 hits and all of these things he has said are not true about the Rev. we get upset and disenchanted with Nintendo? What if then, in our frustration, we buy an Xbox and shun Nintendo for “lying” to us? I really hope this isn’t the case…but the reference the “The Game” made me think of that.
May 2nd, 2005 at 7:35 am
Actually that thought crossed my mind too at some point. After every juicy detail that has been mentioned here, if it turned out to be bogus / exaggeration of truth I think people who have been following this thread would get disappointed easily, even if Nintendo’s E3 showing was strong. With that said I hope everyone - while optimistic and excited about the upcoming console - will take this info with a grain of salt for now, until we get official confirmation. Even if Aries was telling the truth, which I don’t doubt, it’s been a while since he was with Nintendo and some details might have changed a bit by now. Please take that into consideration.
While I’m not a fan of conspiracy theories, at one point I also thought (not least because of the movie “Game” being mentioned, I suppose..) what if Aries was sent here by Nintendo to briefly discuss the upcoming console among hardcore gaming community, to build up the hype? Now, I know it sounds far-fetched and it probably is, but if that was the case it would be like the best plot ever;) In any case, Nintendo should take notice of this and at least consider doing something similar in the future, as the web is buzzing right now…
May 2nd, 2005 at 7:35 am
Or he could be, as I said, an agent of the Illuminati.
May 2nd, 2005 at 7:41 am
If I had to guess what this feature is, I’d go with the controller having a projection utility in it.
May 2nd, 2005 at 7:44 am
It’s great to see there is still so much interest in Nintendo, they truely are the center of the gaming world, even to this day.
I don’t know what Nintendo has in store for their next generation consoles, but expect everything the competition is offer(that includes online play, power, awesome graphics, huge third party games, etc) and more.
May 2nd, 2005 at 7:54 am
The revolutionary control will be interacting with virtual objects as we do in real life. That is why Nintendo has given developers touch screens to program with. They are not the actual controller but are the dev/programming kit for the controller. Don’t you remember that the touch screen could be used to interact with door handles and other things. Look at this revealing comment by Miyamoto: ” I believe interactiveness is everything. Historically, videogames have evolved by stimulating the gamer but I believe that we are now concentrating too much on only “giving” this stimulation. Of course I am involved in “giving” the player new stimulation, but I would like the player to voluntarily feel it. For instance when Link from the Legend of Zelda pulls on a lever and a grand demo movie shows a door opening, I think this is a “giving”. I would not make it so pressing a button pulls a lever, Link would merely hold the lever. Then the player can use the controller to “pull” and open the door. I concentrate on this interactiveness the most.” The touch screen is the simplest way to program for the new powerglove/controller without actually giving away the innovation.
May 2nd, 2005 at 8:01 am
I highly dought that’s the contorller. Where are the grips? But looks pretty good. But you never know if it is real too?.
May 2nd, 2005 at 8:06 am
The revolution will have a touch screen - just not a physical one. Your finger will be the stylus.
May 2nd, 2005 at 8:19 am
Hooray for placemarker.
May 2nd, 2005 at 9:00 am
NicholasVanOrton: you people act as if “Aries” has introduced all these ideas. Everything he has said has been said before on other message boards. He is only regurgitating old theories.
May 2nd, 2005 at 9:25 am
I hadn’t heard about the detailed internet service before Aries described it.
May 2nd, 2005 at 10:28 am
napster: a lot of the “information” regarding games/developers was new. As was a considerable about of information regarding the console itself. Although its all down to E3 now…. *fingers crossed*
May 2nd, 2005 at 11:06 am
We will see the Revolution release sooner than people think if the rumor of the PS3 Spring 2007(Japan)launchis true, if it turns out to be true, thats only like 3-6 months from the time Xbox 360 launched.
May 2nd, 2005 at 11:09 am
Which is rumor to be released this year in Nov.
May 2nd, 2005 at 11:28 am
I see you in E3…. Aries
Good Luck!
May 2nd, 2005 at 11:32 am
Napster:
Don’t be ridiculous.
1) You claim Nintendo has given developers touch screens? Provide proof. GameInformer just made that up, not ONE developer has confirmed a touch screen.
2) Your Miyamoto quote. Uhm, that doesn’t necessarily imply touch screen- gyroscopes detect motion, you could pull on a gyroscopic controller.
3) Touch screen would be horrible. Your finger would smudge the screen unless you use a stylus. Since the touch screen cannot accept more than one input at once, goodbye walking and jumping at the same time. Due to lack of physical buttons you’d have to constantly look down at the screen while playing.
4) Nintendo said there will be no screens on the controller.

And about the Bandai and Namco merger, Nintendo owns only owns 2.7% in Bandai’s stock shares so they don’t have any influence in Bandai, so not much will change, and after the merger, it will most likely drop.
May 2nd, 2005 at 11:50 am
Revolution is building in my ass
May 2nd, 2005 at 11:51 am
I’d like to say thanks to Aries, and what he has done for us Nintendo fans and fanboys as a whole. He’s rekindled our Nintendo pride. He has made us hyped about the Revolution. And, I think he’s reminded us that Nintendo isn’t stupid by any means- its very very smart indeed. So, hopefully, what he has said comes true. Oh, do I ever hope it to be. I believe in him, and it isn’t because all of the things he has said sounds like it could be true. It isn’t because all of the things that he has said sound so awesome. But it is for the simple fact that he made it clear to us that we’d have to wait to E3 to see the truth- what he was saying- which showed he was most likely acting with honesty and truthfulness. No person I’ve encountered would be so cruel about making so many things up for such a while in relation to video games. Everything makes sense. Everything does sound awesome. And I look forward to a future of videogames with Nintendo- one, thanks to Aries, I can actually comfortably enjoy living in.
Thank you,

“I assume you mean 2006, not 2007.

For Xbox 360 I meant 2006, forgot to add it in, corrected that in the post below my previously post. Yeah Microsoft still get a huge lead in the US.
May 2nd, 2005 at 12:05 pm
Even if the rumor of a Spring 2007 PS3 and Revolution launch in japan is true, Sony and Nintendo will probably wait for winter to release there consoles here in the US, so yeah you’re right the Xbox 360 will have almost a year lead here in the US.
May 2nd, 2005 at 12:24 pm
Aries is the ULTIMATE troll. The GOD of ALL TROLLS. Hes DUPED all of you and now you worship this unworthy scumbag liar. WOW
May 2nd, 2005 at 12:25 pm
Aries, I’d much rather be mad at you come E3 for revealing too much correct information than for feeding us all the wrong information. Also, I have two questions:
1. Is there anything we haven’t asked that is very important to the Revolution?
2. Have you seen the “revolutionary” aspect of the Revolution talked about on message boards (forums.n-sider.com, IGN boards, etc)?
May 2nd, 2005 at 12:32 pm

I meant:
PS3/Revolution=Spring 2006
Xbox 360=Nov 2005
Thank You for correcting my mistake.
May 2nd, 2005 at 12:52 pm
everyone remember the “touching is good, but feeling is better” quote that started on a nintendo forum? now, think about the “hot controller” see any connections?
and for everyone out there who’s concerned about the controller melting or whatever, the pads on the controller only SIMULATE heat/texture. what you feel is simply electrical signals interpretted by your brain, so you just need to fool your nerves into thinking they r in contact with something of a different texture to these pads on the controller. someone has said numerous times this technology already exists, and i’m very sure it does. once i find a URL on the article i’ll post it
May 2nd, 2005 at 12:53 pm
What’s going on? I thought this Aries guy was confirmed as a fake? Didn’t Brooke say that he was posting from a bank? Please respond.
May 2nd, 2005 at 1:00 pm
@SUPER HITMAN: That was a fake Brooke who posted that.
May 2nd, 2005 at 1:21 pm
Sebbo,
Please do find that URL. I’m confused on the whole subject…what more can it do than just feel “hot”?
May 2nd, 2005 at 1:28 pm
Well well. I’ll spread the word. Over at IGN’s Lobby forum they’ve all been told it’s fake.
Of course this doesn’t mean it’s true either. But there is hope.
May 2nd, 2005 at 1:28 pm
I didn’t say there would be a touch screen. I said that there wouldn’t be a physical touch screen akin to DS. GameInformer didn’t make that up-it was not part of the April Fools section. The touch screen on the revolution will work like this: consider your hand/finger as a mouse, by moving your hand/finger around you can make selections by tapping yourfinger in mid air. The quote by Miyamoto hints at where Tendo wants to take games. Here is the quote from GI: “The touch screen on the face of the controller is designed to be fully customizable. So, the developer can configure the buttons any way they see fit, or in other cases not use buttons at all, instead opting for virtual levers or other stylus-related inputs.” This sounds very familiar to what Miyamoto said he wanted the players to be able to do. I am believe that this device is like a user interface for the programmer. It makes programming for the REv controller easy. This idea also draws a parallel between the DS and REV. So please read carefully before making a comment on my posts.
May 2nd, 2005 at 1:36 pm
The information aries gave about the console is not new - I have heard those ideas for about 6months now. The info about the network has been discussed by people from N-sider.com and since Iwata announced the “noline” plans. You guys around here need to read around more. There are hundreds of forumsand news sites talking about the REV. Who cares about developer info - anyone can make things up about that. Not saying it isn’t true - just that you all are running around like Aries is Jesus or something.
Question: Did you demand that Aries provide proof for anything he said? Not talking to those of you who did but those who did not.

Hey, he could just mean squeezing the presure sensative handles, which would make more sense.
May 2nd, 2005 at 1:45 pm
My prediction for revolution. Stereoscopic HUD or at least the ability to project 3d on a TV set. The ability to change cammera angles by turning your head(whether an HUD or not) or moving your eyes. The ability to interact with objects, swing swords, fire weapons, throw footballs, turn door handles etc. with a new type of power glove which incorporates vibro-tactile feedback and a pressure-sensitive system regulated through springs or something (this will allow us to feel objects in-game as in real-life), while movement is monitored with Gyros. All movement (running, jumping, kicking) will be controlled with an all new analog foot controller. This is why it all needs to be cordless. All-new internet-like infrastructure allowing people to communicate through real-time audio/video and also to play games. Later I have a physics final to study for. Peace out.

May 2nd, 2005 at 2:58 pm
Thank you Aerie for hyping me up to the max for revolution. One thing I would like to know is if the xbox360 has something we haven’t heard so far and some more about PS3. Also which one do you think will be the better one, PS3 or revolution, I know you think PS3 will win in sales next gen, but which one is the better console?
Also, which Mario game should we most look forward to? And how good will the gc zelda be? Without giving anything away about the game do you think it will top your favorite game of all time, Zelda:OOT?
May 2nd, 2005 at 4:44 pm
Aries is a liar. I am here to tell the truth. I used to work for Nintendo in 2004. They were going to give me the boot, but I resigned before they had the chance. I am by no means afraid to release my identity. My name is Oswald Fredricks. I am 49 years old. I was born is Venezuela and moved to America in 1968. I lived in Nevada for 22 years of my life. I graduaed at UNLV with a bachelor’s degree in law and computer engineering. So it was clear. I was either going to be a lawyer or I was going to make computers. I chose computers. I went on and received my master’s eight years later.Then I moved to the UK, where I owned a small business called Caracuberd Archer, a hardware manufacturing corporation. When I felt I had accumulated enough experience, I decided to give my partner, Casper K. Toddman, full power over the corporation we’d worked so hard to create. I moved to Japan and applied for a job at Nintendo. I was given a small job as a worker in one of Nintendo’s development studios. Gradually, I made my way to the top. When Hiroshi Yamauchi gave employees a chance to show what they can really do for his company on that fateful day, I worked harder than I’d ever worked in my life. I waited to se if my labour would pay off. It had. Yamauchi announced to us that me and twenty-four other employees would get humungous promotions as long as they were able to keep at a consisancy. I maintained my knowledge and made sure i learned something new and important every day. Then it happened. Nintendo was releasing it’s 64-bit console, the N64. The console was a big hit as far as Nintendo was concerned. then they went on to the GameCube. I lived in the U.S, and even suggested to Yamauchi to tell the boss he ought to make it a DVD-ROM format. But that big-headed animal didn’t want to listen to me. Nintendo knows as well as everyone else that their GameCube was a massive failure. In both the long and short runs,Nintendo’s machine got devoured by the competition. Enough of my life story. Listen to me. This is like when you someone being able to see into the future and tell everyone what is to come, and have them not believe him. But whether you believe this or not, this is the absolute truth. Nintendo’s system will be backwards compatible. It will not use holograms, no matter who might of told you it would. It will have a hard drive It will have a dark, greyish layout. Revolution is indeed only th codename. Iwata also leaned towards the names Nintendo 5, N5, Nintendo CL, Nintendo AD, and Nintendo’s N-Link System. The system will also be released with a lighter version, more like white than greyish, but still rather greyish. he body a thick plastic covering with the logo facing the player. As many of you may believe would be an obvious shape that any lying Internet SPAMMER would submit as the N5’s potential shape, I am telling you truly that it will in fact be shaped as an orb. It will be a simple design. The system’s CPU will operate at 128-bits, the same amount as Sony’s PlayStation 2. The system will be shipped with four high fidelity headphones that filter the outside noise and a Nintendo wireless controller. It will also have an Internet-browsing option, which allows you to browse the Internet by accessing the Online Option and then going to N-Net access. This idea is by no means new, as Sega did this first with their Saturn system. It wasn’t very successful then, and this time around, it seems no different. The text is hard to read and the pictures are still rather slurred. An odd addition, while not the revolution, to this system is the “Dual Disk Player”, or the NSDDR. This allows two players to play their own games at the same time. This can only be done when two headphones are jacked in at the same time. The games will be seperated by a split screen and nothing more. And for your information, up to four WiFi Wireless Controllers can connect to the N5.
What Iwata raves about as being “revolutionary” is truly in the design of the controller. The controller will sport no directional pads, analog sticks, or shoulder buttons. It will still sport the A, B, C, Y, and Z buttons, though. In place of the directional pad, there will be a rather fragile glass-like shield on the left side of the controller. Where you touch the system will affect the movements of the in-game character. In most games, touching the exact center of the shield has the same affect as not touching it at all. In some games, however, touching the center helps the in-game character to balance better. In this shield there will be a glowing bluish-indigo power indicator and the letter “C”. On the other side, there are the A,B,Y, and Z buttons. They will have the same positioned scheme as the buttons on the PlayStation 2. The Y and Z buttons will be black, the A button will be green, and the B button will be red. Also, instead of shoullder pads, there will simply be buttons on the controller that indicate Left and Right. This controller will by far be the most comfortable to date, but I see nothing “revolutionary about it… That was the truth… Psyche! Aries is still a liar though. I have no life.

@The Truth-Teller (or Oswald):
If all you say is true, then why should people want to play two different games on one system at the same time? That doesn´t make any sense to me! What about the gyroscopic features? Hardware-Specs?
May 2nd, 2005 at 5:33 pm
ME, THA AMAZING SUPER MARIO, IS GOING TO DE PS3!~!! AND NOW I HAVE T3H SEX WITH B1LL GATESE!!! MAMA MIA!!
May 2nd, 2005 at 5:34 pm
Dude, The Truth Teller made all that up. He says so at the end. What a waste of time.
May 2nd, 2005 at 5:35 pm
Ups!!! Didn´t get that one!
May 2nd, 2005 at 6:24 pm
The Truth Teller… lol, all that long post screwed up right from the beginning…
You said you were born in 1968. You said you have 49 years. Hmm… lets see:
1968+49 = 2017. Better luck next time.
May 2nd, 2005 at 6:24 pm
The ‘one eye, two eye, four eye’ thing is coming true, check ign and count how many eyes there are on the leading story!
May 2nd, 2005 at 6:27 pm
Nevermind, i missed something about that part. Still obviously a fake though.
May 2nd, 2005 at 6:31 pm
True Teller, you are a joke.
But, let’s talk serious from now on.
Anybody read the IGN site this Monday?
They talked about what they think Nintendo is gonna show at E3.
I am very pissed of. It seems that few gamecubes games will be at display and none of them will be new (at least none from Nintendo).
Also, they think that Nintendo could show a final name for the revolution and show 2 tech demos. Nothing more than that. Nothing about the new retro FPS, console design, nothing.
I’d like to know what Aries think about it.
May 2nd, 2005 at 6:34 pm
It would be pretty dumb of nintendo to make people buy a DS just to chat on the revolution chat rooms. How hard would it be to allow people just to connect their keyboard to the Rev and chat like that. Tommy Tallarico interviewed someone from Nintendo of America and they said that the next gameboy is in development, so I don’t know why Aries said that it is not.

Truth-Teller: What you are saying is ludicrous. Two games a the same time? What possible reason would Nintendo do that for? Besides, that would mean that there would be esentially two sytems in every “box”. Why use half-the power to play two games instead of using full power to play one? Again, it makes no logical sense.
I think the Rev controller will utilize some sort of “pressure/force-feedback” setting akin to what Aeris mentioned. I have no proof, no details, just picked up little bits of heresay from this board and others. Personally, I think that is cool. Too many casual gamers will scoff…but Nintendo will continue to innovate while the rest of the gaming world simply plays the same games with better graphics. How exactly did the PS2 innovate over the PS1? It used the same freaking controller! The Xbox controller is basically a modified Dreamcast controller (an old issue of EGM states that that was the one they modelled it after). The Gamecubes is brilliantly simple. It is by far the most comforable controller I have ever used. I think the Rev. controller will be no different. Here’s hoping the trend continues…
May 2nd, 2005 at 7:47 pm
truthteller says at the end that he made it all up. i don’t know how ppl can miss it
the “one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes” thing is a website: http://www.onefishtwofishredfishbluefish.org/revrumors.html
i think the main “innovation” in the ps2 was making it backwards compatable. up until then, the only backwards compatable systems were from sega and you had to buy an attachment for it any way
i’m sure the revolutions controller will have rumble, and i also believe alot of what aries has said.
texture/heat feedback is already possible. these are called “haptic devices” and range from simple rumble packs to what aries is telling us the revolution controller will use. have a look at http://www.utoronto.ca/atrc/reference/tech/haptic.html for a better description
May 2nd, 2005 at 9:07 pm
Question about gyroscopic control: I have a question, and since nobody else has asked it by now, I guess it must be a stupid question. The gyroscopic controls would involve me tipping my control to, say, the left, resulting in the camera/character/something on-screen going left. What if I accidently move the controller when I don’t want anything to happen onscreen. For example, I don’t tend to do this, but I’ve noticed that when some people get “excited” while playing the game, they tend to jump around and fidget a lot. Would that make the screen go all wobbly and crazy? Or is there some kind of button you’d have to hold down in order for the system to register the movement of the control as a command of some sort? I’m sorry if that was confusing, but if anybody understands my question I would greatly appreciate an answer.
May 2nd, 2005 at 9:26 pm
i think aries if real works for panovation, i heard they are working on a game with sega. we will see.
and i think nintnedo is just pullin gthe bluff, liek they did last year, only bigger.
May 2nd, 2005 at 9:28 pm
the gyros dont necessarily control the camera, and i’m sure that they’d only be used when needed, like a flying game or a racing game (you’ve seen those ppl that tilt the controller when they’re going around a corner :-P)
in other words, the developers use the gyros for what ever function they want it for, they can not use it at all if they want
May 2nd, 2005 at 9:53 pm
Yeah but what if someone’s playing one of those racing games and they accidently happen to move and crash into a wall or something? I realize that the gyro will be applied when reasonable, but I can still see some problems with needing to be completely still. It’s not really such a problem for me, but I can understand where it could be troublesome. I’m still looking forward to the gyro, though.
May 3rd, 2005 at 2:23 am
this site sucks genuine ass!!!! also that aries dude was a complete fake man. it looks to me like he has just researched all the rumours that already existed and is simply taking the credit for integrating them all together! oh well surfs up, catch you all at E3, ill be the one wearing the pink elephant outfit,
ps i want to start a serious beef with the user who calls himself Caz!! your mine punk
May 3rd, 2005 at 4:18 am
First of all, I think you can count out the “electronic feedback” from the controllers. If these things are indeed wireless, passing electricity to the body would kill a battery fast. Also count out the heat thing, again too much electricity needed to create heat. The controllers would weigh several pounds to carry the battery needed for this to have any kind of prolonged playtime.
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:29 am
Another thing, it seemed some people were shocked at the idea of pressure sensitive controls. Has anyone ever heard of “Dual Shock 2″? PS2 had that down years ago.
Also, I love how some people said Microsoft stole the wireless idea from Nintendo. That’s the dumbest thing I have ever read. I know someone already stated it, but wireless controllers have been around forever.
So after reading the above, it seems Nintendo is stealing pressure sensitive controls from Sony…uuuuuuummmmmmmm, i’m telling.
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:37 am
i don’t think the dual shock 2 buttons and pressure sensative ball grips are even in the same league as each other. your entire hand squeezing the handle and your thumb smacking down on a button are two entirely different gameplay mechanics.
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:41 am
Nintendo is definitly pulling a bluff. If they don’t show it now, they’re screwed. When else could they show it? TGS? Maybe the rebirth of spaceworld? Who knows. I’m skeptical about Aries too, but hey, it’s keeping me entertainted so whatever.
May 3rd, 2005 at 8:25 am
Just going back a bit (god I was away for 2 days and missed everything), details on PD0 - 64 player on-line minimum, with vast levels and at least 4 vehicles (a rather fun motorbike)
May 3rd, 2005 at 10:47 am
Sebbo: Backwards compatibility existed in the forms of the Gameboy Color, as well as one of the older Atari systems…the 7200 maybe? Anyone know for sure? Sony was definately not the first to do it.
Pressure sensitive “grips” are much different than “analog” buttons. Besides, how many games really take advantage of the analog buttons anyway? You either end up tapping it lightly, or mashing it…there is little to no middle ground. With an entire grip of a controller being this way, the whole thing changes.
I am inclined to believe that the Rev. will be a huge presence at E3, even if it is not playable. Thanks to the internet, and message boards as this, they are guaranteed to have a huge block of fans, and all without showing anything. All they need to do is show a few demos, explain some of the really cool details, and BAM…people get excited. They can save the “official” unveiling for next year. Just keep leaking info every month or so…
May 3rd, 2005 at 10:48 am
Mr. Aries,
I find your conjectures about the new Nintendo system most entertaining. You have given hope to those who are still only loyal to Nintendo hope. While I have seen my fair share of well articulated hoaxes on blogs in my day, this is one of the better ones. You see, it is easy to “spill the beans” about Nintendo products, why? Because there isn’t any information that they themselves, Nintendo, like to hand out on a frequent basis. Knowing the mentality of many single console owners, epically Nintendos’, no offensive I have noticed it on all systems it is just that Nintendo fans seem to be loyal to the death more often than not, they will take hearsay and conjecture as gospel. While I will get “flamed” for say it, please take it in consideration. Emotion was something intended for the games, not the system itself. While some of the guesses you have made seem logical, the radical steps that you claim are too far fetched to be cost and time effective. If what you claim turns into reality, I would love to have a foot in my mouth but the last laugh will not be on me.
It will be on Nintendo for alienating third party developers further and making them go on tangents when they are comfortable in making the largest profits possible. They will not want to spend more time and money and man power to make original games. While many gamers will cry foul, it is business 101, make as much profit as you can with what works. I expect a Revolution to be a “Revolution” for Nintendo, not the entire game industry. It see it mimic-ing more of the other consoles with a gimmick like the touch pad for the DS.
Your Friendly Roman Counterpart,
Mars
May 3rd, 2005 at 11:54 am
Dear Aries.
Can you give us more details about the GameCube port of Mario Kart Arcade GP ? Will we see it at E3 ? Will it support the LAN play ?
Thank you very much.
May 3rd, 2005 at 12:49 pm
Speculation: I suspect Aries works for Tiger Hill Games. They have 4 games in development, 3 with blurbs on the site (none with platforms announced), a partnership with Sega, they’re on the left coast, and I suspect that they’d be a company that could be working on Vectorman. Furthermore, in the company description, it says the company develops for various hardware including that made by Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo, not actually naming the consoles of this generation. We can now thank John Woo for one good thing.
…If this proves true in the next 2.5 weeks.
May 3rd, 2005 at 12:59 pm
Hello there, I would like to throw what I know into this little pot of a blog.
Anyway, the Nintendo Revolution will be in the shape of a ball, and easily transported. It will come with a platform used for holding it, so it doesn’t roll around while you are playing. For all you Zelda fans, think of the pedestal in the Temple of Time from The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. That is what the platform that holds the Revolution looks like. Nintendo has made sure that, while this device will still be portable like Gamecube, it will indeed be a sexy machine. It will come in 3 colors, black, platinum, and blue. Black and platinum for the older gamers and blue for the younger set. All 3 will be avaliable at launch with more coming soon after.
The game will launch with at least 2 Nintendo first party games, announced now are “Super Smash Bros. Revolution” and a new Mario game. From what I hear the new Mario game will link up to New Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo DS via wireless link. Super Smash Bros. Revolution will be Wi-fi compatible, obviously.
When you start up the Revolution there is the opporitunity to go online and download game updates and demos. You will be able to download both Revolution and DS game demos. DS demos will be downloaded from the Revolution via wireless link. There will also be online voice chats and you’ll have your own inbox. Your inbox will contain information from Nintendo about upcoming games and tournaments and challenge requests from anyone else on the net.
There is also a sensor inside the Revolution’s controller being used mostly in horror games, like Capcom’s upcoming Resident Evil 5. The sensor will sense how the body tenses during gamplay and cause different things during the gameplay. If you get scared when something jumps through a window at you, the character on screen may have trouble aiming for a few seconds.
That is all the information I can offer at this point.
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:02 pm
Everything Mr. Fredricks said was the truth. The dual game option is for a friend to play another game as you play your own. He didn’t want to sound like an expert, so he lied about his age, dob, and smudged up a few of the facts. When playing one game, the system’s power would concentrate completely on that game. Nintendo is working on games like another installment to the Pikmin franchise and Mario 128 (working title) The Rev shown at E3 will be a makeshift to please the masses in the mean time. The true system is dark grey and spherical. Up to four Wireless controllers can link up to it via WiFi. We also got documentations from Capcom asking to earn the right to work official,ly on a new title exclusively for the Rev called Empire State. (And this has nothing to do with the building in NY). The N-link will run at 128-bits and clock in at 256GFLOPS. That’s serious power.
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:08 pm
and they say we shouldnt believe Aries…

May 3rd, 2005 at 1:16 pm
Ya know what? Triple Q-Mark’s a liar? So is the truth Teller a Ares! They’re all liars! I rule this blog! You cn trust me! Don’t believe any one of those suckers! They’re all false prophets of the coming of the Revolution! How can a system possibly be more powerful thatn PS2? They’re all going to be the same power as PS2! IGn sad so! And if Saturn was so unsuccesful, why wuld Nintendo try to make another Saturne SYstem? That makes no sense! They dont want to die like Sega? And Pikmin sucks! Why would Nintendo make another Pikmin game if the first two sucked so hard? Comeon, people! I work at Nintendo, and Im telling you that it will have 3457095 bits of RAM and have only about 123 gflops. Think about it: If the next gen systems are all gonna be weaker than PS2, why would they have more gflops. Alright, you probably know I aint brooke cuz my name aint blue, but still, I work at Nintendo, Sony, and Xbox2. All the systems are going to have the same pwer as Sony. Trust me. And the rev will be a sphere.
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:18 pm
And, anonymous guy, who was gonna beleive that garbage anyway? soots ares the truth teller triple q-mark and anonymous. You guys suck!
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:20 pm
and good job, genesyst! We should all go to sleep. let me just finish working on all three system so u can see em at E3.
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:20 pm
Stop it! This is so boring!
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:25 pm
Somehow I doubt you’re Brooke at all… He’d be well um… more mature.
And yes I admitted it was a hoax to prove a point of how easy it is to make things up, because people all around the internet are buying into this “Aries” hoax…
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:29 pm
@Anonymous Contributor: the problem with your post ist, that it sounds so ridiculous, that no one would believe it!
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:32 pm
lol
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:33 pm
Genecyst: Does it really? Is it anymore unbelievable than Aries’ Heated controllers? Technically it would be possible to monitor tension and stress, only it would be too expensive and not too useful really.
And with the updating thing online, is it really that unbelievable? Look at Phantom, that is going to completely download games and even Sega Dreamcast could download updates.
And wireless link from DS to Revolution, is it that unbelievable? Considering Iwata (Or someone, I forget but it was either Miyamoto, Iwata, or Reggie) who said they were tossing around the idea of the DS/Revolution wireless link?
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:37 pm
nobody can prove aries is a liar… therein lies the problem, even if u dont believe him
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:37 pm
“In case anybody here was wondering, my whole post is a hoax.
It just proves how easy it is to make stuff up… ”
FIrst of all, I knew this was a hoax immediately. The whole idea sounds ridiculous.
And Aries sounded confident, wrote A LOT of CONSISTENT info over dozens of posts, and it all seemd possible as well as true, because he just didnt sound outrageous. He said Geist was a disaster, GBE does not exist, he had a few maybes, he doesnt seem like a fanboy with wild dreams

I don’t know how my idea sounds totally rediculous considering its all been done before besides the pressured controls, which would still be entirely possible. They have those types of things on treadmills to measure your pulse. Obviously it could be integrated into a controller.
Seriously someone needs to tell me which part was ridiculously unbelievable because although I didn’t expect anyone to believe it (Or want anyone to for that matter, being why I said it was a hoax) why everyone thinks its impossible. Because its definately technologically possible.
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:45 pm
i agree with jesus, aries was pretty consistent… and he didn’t have the air of a fanboy, a fanboy wouldnt be admitting to mistakes that nintendo made like aries… thats why its hard to know what to believe, since he cant exactly prove himself either
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:46 pm
@Anonymous Contributor: the most unbelievable part of your post was the ballshaped system! I want to play games on my TV, not Soccer with the system itself!
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:48 pm
who would make it an orb…. that might be sweet but still who would? lol… dude the orb could be gryoscopic
May 3rd, 2005 at 1:51 pm
This has been quite an interesting ongoing conversation even though no one knows what’s real and what isn’t. The thing I think that all supporters of Nintendo can agree on is that even if all of what Aries says is false (though i hope it’s not) the Revolution will be a great system simply because Nintendo has set out to remedy all of the mistakes it made with Gamecube.
Things to point out are first, the lack of good launch games….specifically a broad range of genre that all ages will appreciate. More focus has been placed on mature titles and new IP’s. Any franchise games we see will likely feel fresh. Also, as far as the console itself, Nintendo has stated that they will address their issues with media capacity, shell design, support of high end audio and video setups, online play, and we hope 3rd party support. That alone would make most of us happy. Any revolutionary features I consider a gift to the gamer.
Having said all of that, there are certain things that we shouldn’t have to worry about at all that has always been an advantage of Nintendo’s. Nintendo has never made a “weak” system. The Gamecube while not as strong as the Xbox has a finely tweaked chipset which allows developers to push it HARD. Resident Evil 4 and Metroid Prime stand up to almost any Xbox game. I expect nothing less from the Revolution regardless of it’s specs. The hardware has generally been intuitive in development and Iwata has stated that he indents to continue the trend. Microsoft’s new development tools and the fact that their hardware will be similar to Nintendo’s will make ports between the 2 more feasable. As far as Sony, the PS2 frustrates many developers and their custom hardware in the PS3 may just do the same evening out the playing field as far as graphical quality in the console race depending on how much more advanced the PS3 chipset is.
I would also like to add a comment about the physical durability of game hardware. Nintendo products can take a beating. Their consoles are generally developed using as few moving parts as possible (hence the top loaded discs) to minimize malfunction. I expect they will keep it simple again unless they splurge for something tray or slot loaded for window dressing. If the latter is the case, I expect high quality manufacturing unlike many of Sony’s products (audio/video products included) but especially the PS2. More often than not, a gamer has purchased more than one of them to replace a broken one. I can argue a similar point regarding 1st party and licensed peripherals.
BTW don’t expect Nintendo to be an E3 flop. Even if they reveal very little, they come every year to steal the show one way or another. You guys know that.
So my point is don’t be devastated if all of the rumors aren’t true. We are in for at the very least a solid competitive console from Nintendo which will have no blatant weaknesses versus it’s competitors. Until then be happy that Yamauchi retired and the reputation of the company is slowly growing up, but thankfully they will never lose their inner child like some companies have.

please!!!!!
May 3rd, 2005 at 5:27 pm
Nintendo is planning on releasing a new addition to the Game Boy Series. They are codenaming it Game Boy AD, Game Boy GPS, and Game Boy Revolution. This will be able to connect with the Revolution just as the DS will be. There really is no difference in the connection, it’s just that there are different games connected. That’s a fact. Mr. Fredricks still works at Nintendo. That much is a fact. He wouldn’t know so much about the project if he didn’t. He gave you all a wrong age/dob/blurry info so you would disbelieve him, and still some would feel that he was telling the truth.
May 3rd, 2005 at 5:29 pm
And I’ll be happy to explain the one eye two eyes one eye four eyes thing. It has no significance. None that Nintendo is aware of. The system won’t at all be using holograms. It won’t even use DVD ROMS.
May 3rd, 2005 at 5:37 pm

People give the present too much credit. How advanced do you think you are? Scientists say all the time how “far into the furure we are”. The fact is, we’re really not as advanced as they like us to think. If you think fitting a computer the size of a baby armadillo into a controller is truly possible in the year 2005…
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:02 pm
Triple Question Mark, if you’re elling the truth about the revolution, then why did Truth Teller says he was lying already? Leave the guy alone! He said he was kidding, leaveit at that!
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:10 pm
thanks triple question mark
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:10 pm
Ok, I emailed Tiger Hill Games about if they were developing Vectorman, and they answered “nope”. This sounds fishy. Maybe Im crazy, but just saying “nope” makes it sound like theyre lying. Youd think theyd say “No, Vectorman is not currently in development…” or something like that. Maybe not. Can someone email
info@tigerhillgames.com
and ask if superman (or some other comic book related hero) is in development, and give me theri answer?
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:23 pm
person killer, he does still work at Nintendo! I know because he told about this blog and that he wrote on it. He was too afraid to write the whole truth, but I’m not. And I don’t know anything about Superman games. I hardly know about what Nintendo has in the works. I’m an employee, not one of the big boys. (If you were asking me, jesus)
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:25 pm
See? I just put my name as Triple Question Mark. Don’t you see how easy it is to lie about this stuff? All these guys are lyers. We hav to wait till e3
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:26 pm
No! He’s lying! That really was me!
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:27 pm
No, fool! It was me! See how easy all of this is?
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:28 pm
Im asking anyone to do this for me. The thing is THERE ISNT A SUPERMAN game in development, I just want someone who isnt me (because I already sent them an email, theyll answer me with the same answer - “nope”) to ask “Is there a superman game in development?”, and receive and answer, which will surely be NEGATIVE. I really believe that this company is behind vectorman, even when they said “nope” to my email, which to me sounds like a lie, and I still believe that vectorman is SECRETLY being developed at TIGER HILL GAMES.
Here is the request I wrote before:

May 3rd, 2005 at 6:30 pm
I want to compare answers from the superman request (a game that DEFINITELY isnt being developed) to the answer I got asking about vectorman (”nope”), because I think the “nope” is a lie
May 3rd, 2005 at 6:59 pm
Why? I’m sure we’ll hear more about the Vectorman when the time is right, assuming it’s real. Aries already told us as much as he wanted, he didn’t want to give out the developer or more info about himself, so maybe we can respect that and not act like a bunch of cyber stalkers, eh?=) Why risk getting him in trouble, who knows, we may learn more insider information in the future if everything goes well:)
I also think you’re reading way too much into stuff, maybe someone was just too busy to give a more detailed answer.. I’m not saying you can’t be right, though.
May 3rd, 2005 at 7:01 pm
i just want to know if this is all real or not. If we can find a developer, it would mean Aries is for real
May 3rd, 2005 at 8:02 pm
I get the feeling that Nintendo is loving the fact that we are all making up for the lack of hype their products get in the marketplace. I wouldn’t be surprised if the company itself were behind a few rumors. Everyone one on this blog is either building them up to a huge E3 bombshell or building us up to be let down. I would bet the first one. Big name Nintendo titles or announcements are missing from this year’s E3 (with the exception of zelda) more than in previous years. They will show up in one form or another. Don’t look for Zelda , even though I bet it has a few surprises, to be the Nintendo showstopper this year. It may just be a beautiful diversion.

I would like to put my 2 cents into this whole “aries” discussion. Seeming i was born on April 1st 1978, that makes me an “aries” so I feel like I am qualified to give my opinion on this discussion! lol, Actually, I have been a Big N fan since the beginning!! One of the earliest memories that I actually cherish is, the time when my mom’s “boyfriend” of the moment was battling Mario and couldn’t accomplish shit on World 1-2. I was like 7 years old, and he was in his 30s. I asked if i could play for a bit, he left to go get some beer and when he came back like 3 hours later i was on world 7-2 or something like that. He about flipped a nut, He was pissed!!! Lol, i beat the game about an hour later. He was there alongside me rooting for me like i was his Idol or favorite Sports Star or something. He let me have my first drink of beer that day at age 7, lmao. It was my Celebration moment. I had never been big into videogames, so the first time i picked up Mario Bros, i beat it. Ever since that moment, VideoGames have been a big part of my life, and so Has Nintendo!!!!!
I for one am a “doubter” of this “Aries” but i am praying to god he is not feeding us a line of BullShit. Nintendo has a special place in my heart, so I pray that they can turn things around! I can still remember my Tecmo SuperBowl days, my “Adventures of LoLo” ( sidebar: does anybody else remember the LOLO games?
) puzzle solving days. The time i waited for Mario Bros 3 with as much anticipation as i can remember. Then the game lived up to the hype!! Anybody remember Jenny Lewis? the cute girl from the mario bros inspired movie “the wizard”? i had a crush on her, i think she is in her own rock band now………..wow got off topic, lol. Anyways, I had so many memories with the original NES.
Then came the SNES, the Genesis was the cool thing at the time the SNES came out, i remember the old “Power Line” 1-425-885-7529. It used to give updates on all Nintendo Products and let you listen to games being played, kinda like the Internet on the phone, before the net actually hit! Question, How the hell do i remember that phone # ? is it still active? lmao. The SNES brought us games like “a link to the past” “Chrono trigger” Mario World!!!!!!! :)))))))) the original Mario Kart and so many freaking awesome games.
Then everything started going wrong, Square leaving, Gamers got older, N’s image became a “kiddie” thing. We released a PURPLE cube for christ sake for the 128 bit generation.
BOTTOME LINE——NINTENDO NEEDED SOMETHING REVOLUTIONARY to wake up the souls from the past. I have UNWAVERING confidence in Miyamoto, and if you are a true N fan, then you better also. Whatever they decide to do, let’s hope it gets them out of the dundrums of 3rd place. If everything Aries has to say is true, then OH MY FUCKING GOD, NINTENDO IS BACK@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But if they aren’t, then I WILL STILL SUPPORT NINTENDO NO MATTER what, but it will be a bit difficult to swallow 3rd place much longer. God Forbids, if the N doesn’t get with it this Generation, WhoElse thinks that the N could “MERGE, notice i said MERGE” with M$? for the PS4 Generation?? With Microsoft and Nintendo as one, namely Nintendo in charge of the Games side and M$ in charge of the Hardware, they could finally take the goddamn reigns AWAY from SONY. I can’t Stand SONY, I hate SONY, and yes, I am a 27 year old man who HATES SONY, lol. Just think about this for those of you who think Nintendo and Microsoft hate eachother…… read on,
I am an Employee of the Seattle Mariners Baseball group. I live in Seattle and Nintendo Owns a Majority of the Mariners. What most people DO NOT realize is that there are quite of few MICROSOFT board members who own a share of the Mariners. These two groups have banded together the last 13 years here in Seattle and have saved Baseball for this community. In 1992 the Mariners were about 48 hours away from moving to Tampa Bay, then Nintendo and the M$ members came together and bought em. It was a rough ride for a couple years, but it has been a success. The Mariners are one of the top FOUR revenue producing teams in MLB. The Yankees, Red Sox and Cubs make more, but for heavens sake, they have been around a 100 years and more. You see, the MAriners used to lose $25 million a year here, Nintendo has turned that around, so they are very smart and knowledgeable!! Everyday i show up for work, I see Nintendo People ( Howard Lincoln ) and pleanty of M$ people being best friends with eachother. I actually get a few tidbits everynow and then about games, lol. it’s cool. My hope is that Nintendo will succeed with the Revolution, but if they don’t, it won’t be such a bad thing that M$ and Nintendo merge to take on Sony!!!!!!
Good Lord, what has this post been about?? Well let me see, Do you guys ever remember the “New York Times” Reporting that Nintendo was BUYING Sega?? It was all over the net for weeks and weeks. And this was one of the most respected News Organazations reporting it, so it musta been true?? Remember the Ages RPG? Ages = Sega, well who do you think the “source” was for those stories?????
Just remember, Yamauchi nixed the Sega accquisition at the last minute!!!
If ya’ll have any questions, feel free to ask, i am not that privy to Revolution info, but I do have alot of info that i am not bound by any NDA’s
May 3rd, 2005 at 10:04 pm
oh yeah, April 1st 1978 is my true birthdate, so don’t go thinking that it is some kind of ApRIL Fools gag, it isn’t!!
May 3rd, 2005 at 10:09 pm
2 main characters in that RPG were going to be Odnetnin and Ages. Read em backwards, and yeah it has been almost 5 years since that news hit, but it was closer to truth than you might think!!!!

Official confirmation that the Revolution(along with PS3) will indeed be making an appearance at E3.
May 4th, 2005 at 12:28 am
aircory. i hear what you are saying and I am a nintnedo fan for life. casue they have always given me a game experince with each delivery. so my friend what have you heard and would do youknow of the revolution that can match or add to all we know.
May 4th, 2005 at 4:55 am
Wow, according to Google Phonebook, there is someone at 925 820-3863 named Robert.
May 4th, 2005 at 5:49 am
Yea, I am an aries also, and a ninty fan as well.
May 4th, 2005 at 6:04 am
Aircory- what info have you picked up in your time working for the Mariners? I’m sure we’d all love to hear about it. Can you confirm anything Aries has said?
May 4th, 2005 at 6:50 am
Looks like there is nothing left to speculate about, guys. Now we’ll be bored for 2 weeks.
May 4th, 2005 at 7:26 am
I’m looking forward to another Reggie speech at E3. I hope they let him handle the Revolution details. I like Iwata but Reggie is the hype-master!
May 4th, 2005 at 7:39 am
And I would just like to say that no matter how much ass the Revolution kicks at E3, there will be some grease stain immediately lighting up the message boards saying OMG it’s the worst console ever, Nintendo has no clue. You know who you are and before you even get the chance, I will speak for all fair and impartial gamers when I say WE WISH YOU WERE NEVER CONCEIVED! Perhaps you would better enjoy a gaming console manufactured by Leap Frog. I may not be able to hack websites and program viruses but at least I get laid regularly and I ENJOY GAMES FOR WHAT THEY ARE WORTH! All 3 consoles will have pros and cons, but unfortunately the war is decided by the casual gamer and not people like us.
May 4th, 2005 at 9:28 am
Well said DlphnMod, I am in the same boat as you (not a hacker per se, but getting it regularly). I agree with everything you said. I dislike the nay sayers too. I think it’s funny that people that say a system sucks, but they have it anyway. Why can’t people say “I won’t be using that GBA-GCN link” instead of saying it’s a horrible idea and it will make Nintendo go bankrupt. SO much exageration on message boards. But what can you expect from kids that didn’t go through the whole video game evolution (from Pong to now). If you think you can make a better console, go for it.
May 4th, 2005 at 9:49 am
I believe Adrenium Games is developing Vectorman.
May 4th, 2005 at 9:58 am
Oh, and stop proving to us that you can post lies on here whoever you are, WE GET IT!
May 4th, 2005 at 10:30 am
Here’s a lie…….GTA and Halo sell so much because they are creative and polished. GTA is the single greatest example of the unfortunate influence of the casual gamer. You are exacly right, Lectoid. Its a shame that most people don’t go way back like we do. I was playing punch-out!! last night and its still more fun than 80% of modern games. I would donate an organ for a new one. I am praying that the domain name registering of punch out!! means something is happening.
May 4th, 2005 at 12:12 pm
who here is going to e3? i am
May 4th, 2005 at 12:55 pm
How crazy would this be???
Nintendo gave F-Zero to Sega to make, and they did a fine job.
Now, what if Sega did the same with Vectorman? Wasn’t Aries talking about how Retro is making a new FPS futuristic game?
Aries working for Retro? Maybe all that ‘I work for a 3rd party’ was to throw us off so we would never find out?
Aries working for Retro? They talk about their game at E3? Someone from Retro drops the ‘The Game’ bomb? I would certainly wet myself!
May 4th, 2005 at 1:20 pm
Nah, because he already said that there game would involve choosing races and impregnating women… Plus, Vectorman isnt an fps
May 4th, 2005 at 1:23 pm
Nintendo would not want their top 2nd party team working on a license that wasn’t all that popular unless it was a Nintendo license. Retro’s game is almost definitely a new IP.
May 4th, 2005 at 1:36 pm
if the retro game exists
May 4th, 2005 at 1:43 pm
Sorry guys, I was just dreaming!!!
I think it would be hilarious if Aries turned out to be a Nintendo employ.
What if he was REGGIE?!?! That would make sense! How else could he know so much!??!?
May 4th, 2005 at 1:49 pm
Nintendo would be insane not to have that studio make a launch title. Who better than the Americans to make a game to compete with Bungie? Retro is just as tech savvy and way more creative than Bungie could hope to be. You don’t just pull Metroid Prime out of your ass. The multiplayer in Prime 2 was weak, but it was never a priority like it seems to be with this rumored title. So I say let Retro make your Halo killer and mature titles and let 1st parties do what they do best with their flagship characters. There are sooooooooooo many that need resurrection. KID ICARUS? PUNCH-OUT!!? You bet your sweet ass!
May 4th, 2005 at 1:57 pm
Reggie is EXACTLY what Nintendo needed in marketing. I just hope he has enough influence to get themto throw a little cash into his ideas. Personally I think most of Nintendo’s TV ads are garbage, but the teaser for Prime 2 was a good idea and the hilarious nintendo sports ones are great…………………..the orginial smash bros commercial………….BEST TV AD EVER. Pikachu gets his ass kicked and he flies thru the air.
May 4th, 2005 at 2:10 pm
“Well, you guys are a smart bunch.
I dont work for Sega, but they are letting us work on the Vectorman IP. We are developing it for them.
So, I have given you our current publisher, but Im not giving out the developer stuudio.”
He did confirm it was Vectorman.
Now, all you have to do is do some research.
Find out what developers have had past publishing agreements with Sega.
Find a studio that hasn’t developed a game in awhile (as they would be busy working on next-gen content)
Find a studio with talent. Probably someone recently formed as Aries would leave Nintendo to work with.
I did. Thats how I came up with Adrenium Games and Amaze Entertainment, but everytime I say, everyone complety ignores the post.
At least I researched it, instead of just insisting it was Silicon Knights or guessing Retro. However, :;shrug:: who knows.
May 4th, 2005 at 3:17 pm
Matt has just confirmed that Aries is a fake. Go check IGN’s latest mailbag.
May 4th, 2005 at 3:40 pm
I’m telling you guys! I work at Nintendo, Sony, and Xbox! The Revolution is gonn a be purple and have another one that is red and another one that is black. They will have siteen controller ports. (If you do the math, two times two is four and four times dour equals to sixteen It’s so obvious! And it will have a screen built in and the controller will have only about four button on it. It will operate at about 99GHz of processor, which is weaker than PS2, but the revoluion helps it become stronger. We all know its impossible for a sstem to be stronger than PS2. So Revolution added a solar powered jet propelled light refraction desamation satelite system in the revolution. This way, It uses a mirror to pick up energy from the sun and the stars at night time. That feature has always been in systems, only it was les powerful. It’s whet gives the characters color and darkness. This time, since it is more powerful, it will be better graphicly. They will look smoother. And you get to use instant message. and the system will be shaped like a PS2, only bigger and way cooler looking. It will also have two hard drives so it can save two games at a time. Also, it will be able to download games from a secret that was put into the nes when it was being debeloped. The secret is that if you fuse the NEs and revolution, you get the ultimate system. One that is even more powerful than PS2. Believe me or not, that is the truth. I work at all three companies, so I know. All these fakes need to stop it right now. brooke, aries, triple question mark, truth teller. Please. Just stop lying. If you worked at Nintendo you would speak Japanese. I speak japanese but english too also. So everyone, remember when the revolutiopn comes out who who told told you the truth…….

Fake
May 4th, 2005 at 3:51 pm
As much as I hate to say it… you guys actually expect Matt, a public person who’s signed NDAs to say ‘yep, he’s telling the truth’ that’s almost as bad as Matt saying it himself.
So while I think Aries is fake… Matt’s not one to believe in this case either. Your best bet, just wait the few days to E3.
May 4th, 2005 at 3:57 pm
i think matt just isn’t going to say anything, and neither has he given us anything to back his statement, basically we have to see what ariea as to say this weekend. lol this is fun. seriously matt knows more than he is letting off. come on for crying out loud he should stop being a prick.

There. Japanese. Are you quite happy? And this Matt guy deosn’t have a clue. He just said that to prevent SPAM and rioting on his precious IGN board. No disrespect to IGN, or anything. The point is, I’m telling the truth. And when I said he was protecting the board, I din’t mean from perpetuating Aries SPAM. I meant from the truth. Aries is a liar. Matt didn’t lie about that. The truth is, employees even in the NOA district, have ideas on the Revolution. We’ve actually even been sent an entire portfolio containing pictures and specs on the system. Most of the pics were sketches, but they were all sketches of the same thing. The real Nintendo Revolution. In the Japanese district, Capcom has got a hold of blueprints for the Rev. They are developing going to start development on a game called Crawling and they need these blueprints to build around the revolution’s format. Also, Clover Studios is planning on making a second Okami game. And Vivendi Universal also plans on investing in the system with a new game. tThe revelution’s no big secret to folks in the know. Nintendo plans to destroy gaming as we know it and rebuild it from the ground up. They plan to change the way we view the things we have been viewing. Whether or not they can pull thi off is anyone’s guess. That’s the truth.
May 4th, 2005 at 4:05 pm

May 4th, 2005 at 4:22 pm
don’t know if Matt can stop being a pirck. Everyone in the know wants to say things, but we have NDAs to honor. I don’t know anything about Revolution… I just work for a PC game devloper… but NDAs are a bitch
May 4th, 2005 at 4:24 pm
Guess what oh naive kids? MATT IGN JUST USED THE SAME DESCRIPTION to what I called this Aries fraud, HES VAGUE and a FAKE.
Check it out YOURSELVES
http://cube.ign.com/mail
” Matt responds: Oh yes, Aries. For people who haven’t been following the avalanche of rumors being spread over at the Broken Saints message boards, here is a quick recap: a poster named Aries alleges he is a developer with all sorts of inside Revolution and next-gen information, and he’s been posting sizeable chunks of it on a daily or weekly basis. He’s written pages on various subjects and up until recently I’ve done my best to avoid it, but then a helpful IGN message boarder conveniently put together all of Aries’ comments in one tidy thread, and I checked it over.
I guess lots of people have been waiting for me to comment on these posts and either qualify or disqualify the guy. So here it is. Everything he’s said is true. Completely true. I can’t believe he spilled it all already!
If you immediately stopped reading and raced to the message boards to post a “Matt Confirms!!!11″ topic, you’ve really made a jackass out of yourself. Well done. If, on the other hand, you’ve continued reading, even better.
Honestly, this Aries guy is a fake. But I have to give to him: he’s a pretty good one. He’s definitely on top of the industry and some of his predictions — guesses, even — are logical. He’s made an accurate guess or two about certain things not related to Revolution. And he remains just vague enough in most cases to perpetuate his credibility.
But he goes too far. The simple truth is that nobody in the industry, except for possibly Satoru Iwata, Shigeru Miyamoto and Genyo Takeda, could know as much about Revolution as this guy claims he does. I don’t care if he worked for Nintendo of America for 30 years. Nobody at Nintendo of America, including the highest-ranking executive, has the kind of access Aries professes he does. Nobody. And I have enough contacts in the development industry to know that advanced Revolution hardware is not in high circulation. I mean, some of the biggest publishers out there have yet to receive any information on the platform. Trust me on this. Some of these outlandish claims Aries makes are just bogus. And that’s really the biggest giveaway.
I’m sure some of you would love to believe the guy. He makes Nintendo look like gold. But don’t. Wait a couple weeks for the real deal.”
PWND like a bitch, NEVER DOUBT a LIBRA
May 4th, 2005 at 4:35 pm
It didn’t get the text from a website. I got it from Microsoft Word. and I’m sure Matt means well, but I know what I’m talking about. I’ve seen the pictures myself, Sure, the name is still being played around with and a few other factors, but I told you people what I know. The specs, I’m sure, will remain the same in the long run. The design may change, though. And oddly enough, what person killer said is true, though he was trying to mock me. Mr. “Fredricks” actually does stil work for Nintendo. He simply must to know so much about it. The design may change, and I’m sure what they give you all at E3 will be a makeshift, but the specs I gave you are rather accurate.
May 4th, 2005 at 4:51 pm
Ok Libra calm down, he was obviously a fake you didn’t discover gold here.
As for Aries, you ought to be ashamed of yourself. Go back to “work” you troll…
May 4th, 2005 at 4:56 pm
Matt only thinks aries is true. If Revolution kits were sent out (which I hope they have since we want devs to actually have time to work on this) Matt wouldn’t know. It would never get out to the public for reasons like people constantly emailing and contacting those companies and asking them. There may even be spying going on. I like how Matt likes to think he knows everything about the industry, but he doesn’t. He’s just a reporter. He is meant to know nothing until E3. He may have gotten that letter Aries says some people got, and he may not be telling us. He isn’t supposed to tell us anyway and Aries broke the rule by doing that and telling the world that IGN has it. We aren’t supposed to know any of this. Matt is probably just trying to destroy this because of good reasons, that reason being that Sony or Microsoft could infact steal these ideas. And they are great ideas that any company could profit from. Matt is just trying to gaurd this information by calling it fake. But it’s too late. If this is real or fake sony or Microsoft could have seen these made up truths and have taken the idea. And if it’s real then Nintendo will beat them because they got a head start with it.
But all that is speculation. I really dont want Revolution to come out with 3D glases or touch screen. I dont want any more cell shaded zelda or cel shaded anything. I want 3rd party support and big games. I want mature game on a Nintendo system. I dont want it to be purple or platinum. I want black and red. I want super online service. I want hard drive.
I want the REAL Nintendo that I once knew. I want a Revolution.
May 4th, 2005 at 4:56 pm
[...] wanted to do that) It seems as if this Aries character who has been posting rumors on the Broken Saints blog is not as creditable as many made him out to be.In the most recent MailBag on Cube.IGN.com, [...]
May 4th, 2005 at 5:01 pm
I feel as if depressing music is unseassisly playing in my ears. I’ve read the IGN mailbag. Of course, I knew that Aries wasn’t necessarily telling the truth, but he sounded so plausible… I wonder really if he will return this or next weekend. But I doubt he would, as he has lied.
Matt has confirmed, as can be seen above, Aries is a fake. It would of been a nice thing if someone asked Aries what he thought Matt would reply with, since Aries claimed that he thought he had a pretty good idea what Matt would reply in the mailbag with. It seems as if we will have to wait until E3 for the real real deal. There is the slimmest of possibilities, however, that Matt just put that in the mailbag because he couldn’t break an NDA confirmin what all Aries has said is true. Aries has claimed a lot of things. He has given what probably is false hope. Disgusting. E3: 13 more days and counting…
May 4th, 2005 at 5:03 pm
Matt is simply giving his 2 cents, and he says that all this seems unlikely. Im starting to doubt Aries…
May 4th, 2005 at 5:08 pm
I gonna search in all the world that bastard of Aries and i gonna put his fucking PC in his ASS!!!!
he lie to us… to all the Nintendo Fans… may be is a fucking sonyer who don’t have anything to do exept invent fake histories about this….
keep your back now Aries… if in E3 i see nothing you said in this blog… you gonna wake up like a dead body….
son of a bicht…
May 4th, 2005 at 5:14 pm
talk about jumping the gun… best bet people… just don’t believe anyting until E3… even Aries
May 4th, 2005 at 5:17 pm
What Matt said about only Satoru and the big boys knowing surprised me. Did he really think that it would be a good decision for them not to send dev kits to developers? Unless they plan on selling a console with a library of zero games, that’s not happening. I work for Nintendo. They’re working on a new Pikmin Title. They were the first to get the dev kits and sketches of the system prototype. 128-bits. 256GHz. Up to four controller ports via Wifi. The Revolution. The video game industry is not something out of the reach of human understanding. It’s not impossible for us meer mortals to get the facts. I’ve told you what I know about the Revolution. Whether or not you choose to believe me is completely up to you.
May 4th, 2005 at 5:17 pm
All of you should read again the patent…Aries said that it already used in an GCube s game…but I don t think so…All his lies started from there…
May 4th, 2005 at 5:18 pm
All of you should read again the patent…Aries said that it already used in an GCube s game…but I don t think so…All his lies started from there…
May 4th, 2005 at 5:20 pm
Now, I’m not saying Aries isn’t a fake by any means… But Matt’s mailbag didn’t make me disbelieve him. Doesn’t anybody else thing it’s a little off? I mean, for instance:
“ut he goes too far. The simple truth is that nobody in the industry, except for possibly Satoru Iwata, Shigeru Miyamoto and Genyo Takeda, could know as much about Revolution as this guy claims he does. I don’t care if he worked for Nintendo of America for 30 years. Nobody at Nintendo of America, including the highest-ranking executive, has the kind of access Aries professes he does. Nobody.”
C’mon now… Maybe I’m misunderstanding, but this sounds absolutely ridiculous. Slimming it down, he basically said only 3 people in the world know very much about the Revolution. That’s absurd… The countless R&D, partners, and developement teams that would have to be involved make that bogus. Like I said, maybe I’m misunderstanding his exact point - but I laughed when I read it.
Even if sensible, I don’t recall Aries saying anything that would be so top secret that only 3 people would know. It just doesn’t make sense, anyway. The online network? Yes, I’m sure Shiggy and Satoru are back in an office designing and constructing that all by themselves and no one else in the company knows. Just one example, since I don’t want to rant TOO long.
Furthermore - Aries being fake or real, just off principle - who truly would be more likely to know these things and if they’re true or not… Game journalist, or developer/someone in that aspect of the industry? Or to a greater an extent, a former NOA employee. Like I said, Aries be damned - just on principle. Any NOA employee. Who would more likely be able to confirm or deny: NOA employee or game journalist?
Just thought I’d throw a bit of my thoughts on Matt’s response into all this. I’ll repeat that I’m in no way saying that Aries is absolutely real and Matt is full of shit. Not my point at all - Matt’s response just seems silly, and “off.” Maybe he himself is covering up, hell if I know. But it didn’t sit right with me.

May 4th, 2005 at 5:22 pm
Matt has been a lame-ass lately. How come IGN xbox will comment on rumors but IGN cube won’t? Remember the supposed picture of the 360? I say Matt is a slave to NDA’s because he says Aries made false claims, but he’ll never say what was false. I love Nintendo but the secrecy thing is killing me. If it were Microsoft they would interrupt a State of the Union address to show the country a product that has no name or design. BTW Longhorn looks to suck major eggs and I wish Tiger was PC compatible. Then maybe people would write games and apps for it, huh?
May 4th, 2005 at 5:29 pm
All of you should read again the patent…Aries said that it already used in an GCube s game…but I don t think so…All his lies started from there…
Multi-focal point cameras are something new for games… but they are not revolutionary. That’s like saying the Nintendo patent for sprite based transparence with no artifacts, which was registered last year, is going to involved in the display mechanics for Revolution. It just doesn’t make sense unless the patent goes deeper than just talking about the camera zooming in and out for multi-focal games that is, but, as far as I can tell, it just describes a new style of programing game cameras.
May 4th, 2005 at 5:31 pm
*that should be single focal point cameras are something new for games… my bad
May 4th, 2005 at 5:42 pm
thats right, he claimed loudly that aries was false, but never mentioned one thing that put him in the false catergory
May 4th, 2005 at 5:48 pm
Regardless of who is right or wrong, Nintendo better show something and make a big F’n deal out of it, cause if they disappoint, im gonna be PISSED
May 4th, 2005 at 5:56 pm
The question isn’t whether or not u would rather believe an NOA employee or a game journalist, it’s whether or not u would rather believe a game journalist or an anonymous person typing to a blog. I don’t know about u guys, but I’d go with Matt. To clear things up, he only said SOME of the publishers didn’t have information about Revolution yet, which is certainly possible considering ninty’s secrecy issues. This is something Matt has mentioned and complained about in several of his mailbags. Also, it’s one thing to know a certain aspect about the Revolution, it’s another thing to know so many different projects and features surrounding the Revolution that aries mentioned.

I’m suprised no one asked Matt about the “eyes”.
What are the odds of using close-ups of mario’s eyes for three news articles in a row ? It just doesn’t make sense, especially when they’re using some obscure excerpt from a japanese “Mario vs DonkeyKong” ad to illustrate new Mario Kart GP pictures…
May 4th, 2005 at 6:02 pm
Let us all not forget that Matt often times doesn’t know shit. Backwards compatibility anyone?
I’m sure others could come up with more examples.

I distinctivly remember reading or watching a interview with Reggie, responding to a question about Revolution devkits. His answer was that devkits would go out in April and this was during or after GDC2005.
May 4th, 2005 at 6:15 pm
Paladin69 thats a good point, Matt lately has been getting snubbed on exclusive content. He hasn’t got an exclusive about Zelda since E3 last year.
May 4th, 2005 at 6:50 pm
Is Revolution going to be covered much at this year’s E3? I figured much of it would be covered at next year’s E3, since it won’t be out anytime soon.
May 4th, 2005 at 7:09 pm
I don’t think as much as X-Box360 will be revealed, but most enough to get us excited for 2006. Nintendo is still not sure what to show at E3 so we might just end up with a grain of salt.
May 4th, 2005 at 7:13 pm
I think it’s very suspect to see one person know so much about the console, controllers, online features, AND third-party projects that he isn’t a part of. I don’t know who to trust, so I’ll trust noone. I’m gonna wait for E3.
May 4th, 2005 at 7:56 pm
if devkits only went out a month ago, then can there really be so many confirmations about 3rd party support and games in development so soon?
May 4th, 2005 at 8:41 pm
Good old Matt from IGN has said it himself, Aries is a fake. A real shame, no? Aries had me so hyped, I was pissing myself. …but (and this is a big but), Matt might have posted that to save his behind. He knew (since he was referenced by Aries) that he would have to have a mailbag concerning Aries. Since he isn’t allowed to mention anything about the NRev to the public, he would simply shoot down Aries. I don’t believe this is the case, but we can all dream that Aries’ filthy lies are actually true.
We’ll all have to wait for E3 obviously, and even though (I believe) what Aries has said to be fake, The NRev will probably blow us away anyways. Here’s hoping!
Aries: You are a very professional liar. Be a lawyer, it suits you!

yes they can,let take a look at the companies he mentioned. mostly japanese companies who intendo would have given kits out for the rev earlier than gdc 2005. also companies like capcom, namco and sega have good ties with nintnedo so i would expect for them to get kits first, also zoonami should have had kits a long while. considering they were rumored to be making a cube game for nintendo which ign themself suggested withwas moved to next gen.. also if ea got the kits at gdc. tha is enough time for time to get excited about advanced headset controls. so in a sense if you look at the companies he call there is a possibility of what he said being true.
May 4th, 2005 at 9:20 pm
Guys. We’d better find another blog or somewhat to chat. This page is getting so dawn big that my cpu takes years to load. Could be even here on Broken Saints.
As for the Aries thing. I just don’t care that much if it’s real or fake, since i think it’s funny all that talk about the revolution and think that it’s a good way to keep me entertained until the E3 show.

just fyi, the forum was just brought back online after a server crash. The guys who run it (a indie PC developer called Crossbeam Studios Entertainment) are pretty lax and some of them are huge Nintendo fans (and will probably join in the conversation)
May 5th, 2005 at 1:30 am
Seira: My post wasn’t read thoroughly enough, apparently. Not a bash, just pointing it out. I’m usually pretty selective with my words. My above post was no exception. I didn’t say who would you rather believe, I said who would truly be more likely to know. Aries or not. Big difference.
Just pointing that out.

So Matt says Aries was fake, but if he was locked under NDA’s he ouwld have to say that anyway right? otherwise he would have just got bombared with like a million more emails. I dont know what to believe anymore im just waiting for E3!
Also about the ign eyes stuff…. mario showing 2 eyes again, but whats the emblem on his hat which has replaced the “M”?
May 5th, 2005 at 4:42 am
Matt is probably annoyed that he doesn’t get all the info. Just what does he know? He didn’t even know that Zelda wasn’t going to be cel-shaded until last year’s E3.
Aries: look, I am 95 per cent sure that you are right. That 5 per cent has to prove your authenticity. Since you don’t want to go into much detail on the Revolution, tell us about an aspect of the GameCube that we don’t know about, such as how it handles 3-D character data. If you are not a programmer, you could get this information from one of your developers.
May 5th, 2005 at 5:23 am
including the highest-ranking executive, has the kind of access Aries professes he does. Nobody. And I have enough contacts in the development industry to know
yep, like I said, I really find that hard to believe. You know damn well Reggie and Kaplan know whats up with the NRev…and many others like them.
yeah lets wait…Matt says a lot of bullshit as well and has been wrong many times. He also swore the NRev wouldn’t be backwards compatible no more than 1-2 weeks before the GDC. That sure made him look like an ass.
May 5th, 2005 at 5:57 am
I think we can all agree that a lot of what aries said can be taken as true just by simple logic. We know that Nintendo invested in gyroscopic technology a while ago. We know that they vowed to address their issues with online gaming, disc capacity, and shell design. They know that they have to keep pace with the competition. Iwata specifically said they plan to combat the PS3, not 360. PS3 is undoubtedly going to be the stronger of the 2 so the big N has set it’s sights high. We already know it has a VGA output, so logically it should also offer component out. Now who in their right mind would give you an HD VGA out, but not digital audio? No one. Look for an optical audio out……….if we get digital coax only i will be PISSED. Nintendo has expressed an interest in high capacity storage mediums in the past. Remember the SD memory cards for cube? I think they saw that they need more than that for it to be truly effective and shelved it in favor of a better solution for revolution. In my opinion, I don’t see why Nintendo will make their controllers wireless by default. I think people would prefer the choice like they have now. From the way it sounds, all of the functions it may have will eat battery power like crazy. I look for them to stay wired by default…….unless of course peer pressure of the 360 weighs in. You guys see where i’m headed with this? Use process of elimination and you can come up with a lot of answers. As far as games go, you know Zoonami’s project is for REV, you know HAL Labs hasn’t made a game in forever, you know retro is working on something (we just can’t confirm what). You know you will see madden. And because of so much criticism of gamecube, you KNOW they will launch with a mario title…….anyone else care to run with this?
May 5th, 2005 at 6:13 am

well stated and to continue, you know nintnedo has good ties with certain japanese companies, namely sega, namco, dare i say konami. you also know sqaure was supposed to release a second game on the cube last year but we never heard anything about it. so it could easily be moved to revolution. anyone else…?
May 5th, 2005 at 6:43 am
Well i would like to rule out Rev using holographic discs. HVD is a fledgeling technology and is way too expensive at this point to include in a console i think. We already know that it plays GC games, so we know whatever media it uses will spin, whether it is a DVD or HDDVD. I truly think whatever it is, it will be normal sized unless Nintendo has come up with a proprietary format GC sized that holds a S*** load of data. You know how they are about piracy, so don’t expect it to be a standard dvd.

May 5th, 2005 at 6:48 am
And to compliment what i said about the controllers……I find it unlikely that REV will alienate all of the GC’s peripherals (bongos, mic, gba link cable) regarding backward compatibility. So it must have some sort of hard controller port. Lots of games use these.
May 5th, 2005 at 7:07 am
Do you think that the lack of GC titles this year has been due to Nintendo heavily allocating company resources to the REV project? After this holiday season, I don’t see GC support continuing in full. They seem very disappointed in GC at this point and eager to introduce their redeeming new hardware. Remember how N64 was all but abandoned prior to the GC launch? They have no major 3rd parties to appease so I see them distancing themselves from GC after christmas. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a summer launch for REV. Especially if 360 does well and PS3 launches early………..Iwata said they will NOT launch after PS3.

you are rigth, i don’t see how that will happen. considering we have been told time and time again that the revolutionis somethign we know and something quite simple. so if simplicity is the name of the game, there we canrest assure that alienation is not part of the whole story.
May 5th, 2005 at 7:10 am
I agree with DlphnMod
This Johnny Nighttrain guy claims to know what’s up with the NRev over at GAF. Not sure what his credentials are but here is one of his past posts…
“seriously guys, the answers are all around at this point. there’s been enough things speculated, or leaked here and there by now to give a pretty good hint of what the deal with Revolution is.
piece together what comes off as most natural, and you’ll probably find the answer.”
I think most of what Aries said could end up being a pretty good educated guess.
So I suspect Aries will take some time this weekend to defend himself?
May 5th, 2005 at 7:14 am
DlphnMod
it seem that way about them creating a gap btw the gc and rev. but who knows. gc still has somelegs to it. i think developers or publisher rather are just stupid for lack of support at least ea and ubisoft still give big n some love though in the shape of ports.

even if aries made educated guess. the reason we mostly beleived him was the fact they guess or fact or whatever were not far of fromwhat we know and seem logical from a nintendo stand point.
May 5th, 2005 at 7:20 am
Speaking of 3rd party love………Sony must have had to give Namco random sexual favors in order to keep them from releasing Soul Calibur 3 on GC. That would be like making millions on a movie and not releasing a DVD.
May 5th, 2005 at 7:34 am
even tho matt has been wrong before, he seemed pretty sure about this especially the part about certain big name third parties not receiving information. isn’t it funny how we’re trying to logically piece this together when we’re talking about nintendo, a company who hasn’t always been logical?

As always E3 is in the middle of the F’n week so I will be at work on these boards trying to find out what happened. The press conference is always the best damn part. I hope revolution gets a cool name. I’m tired of all these code names. I was mad when the DS just stayed DS. I will throw a fist in the air if the call it NES 5. TAKE THAT SONY YOU BASTARDS!
May 5th, 2005 at 8:15 am
I would not mind it staying Nintendo Revolution… it’s a codename I have grown attached to.
May 5th, 2005 at 8:22 am
Yea i guess it’s not so bad, but if they keep using catchy codenames then everyone will keep getting attached to them. Call it project something for now and then a cool name later. I guess it’s too late for that. At least revolution rolls off your tongue well. trying to say XBOX 360 gets old fast. Hell even just XBOX was a stupid name
May 5th, 2005 at 8:27 am
Brett:Point taken. But I wasn’t really commenting on your post as much as I was trying to add my perspective on Matt’s mailbag. That’s all.
May 5th, 2005 at 8:35 am
Does everyone at least agree that Nintendo is DUE and on the verge of something great whether it is sooner or later? I’d rather have it that way than them just being a sheep like Microsoft. Sony will not be happy until their game machine can do your taxes and wash dishes……….but only if you buy THEIR reciept reader or THEIR dishsoap. Oh and if they are not retarded they will support more than 2 controllers without that useless multitap…………..which NO DEVELOPER WANTS TO SUPPORT EVER.
May 5th, 2005 at 8:37 am
IM BORED AT WORK. START TALKING!
May 5th, 2005 at 8:43 am
not a whole lot to talk about… it’s kinda all been said. However… I will say that I hope something comes out from Retro besides another Metroid game… I want Raven Blade damnit.

i agree nintendo seems on the verge of something big and in a big way.
May 5th, 2005 at 8:55 am
the “nintendo kick-ass”. that sounds about right. all the commercials will have reggie going around kicking people’s asses. and maybe taking names too.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:01 am
Other features of the Revolution will include a touch screen and microphone on the controller. It will be able to link with the DS and the Game Boy Advance AD.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:10 am
Triple Question Mark: Dude stop making things up. No moron would put a touch sensitive LCD on a controller. Its way too impractical and expensive. A touch PAD could be possible like laptops have, but i still think unlikely. REV will no doubt link wirelessly to DS, but no one has ever heard of the new game boy although i’m sure if there was one, it would be WiFi.
As for the microphone, no one wants to talk into their controller. I expect to see a headset or nothing.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:16 am
I take back the mic thing………if sensitive and properly calibrated, it could work in the controller.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:17 am
Heh. The funny thing is, that piece of info wasn’t even exclusive. Iwata proclaimed it himself. Publically.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:21 am
And, I don’t think I mentioned this, but the system will also use gyroscopes.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:23 am
Game Boy Advance AD?
May 5th, 2005 at 10:23 am
And, in case you don’t recognise the next Gameboy as Game Boy Advance AD, perhaps you’ll recognise the name Game Boy Evolution. That’s what I meant before, but I accidentally put Revolution instead.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:25 am
We know about the gyros but Iwata never said anything about including touch LCD’s………..and he said maybe a mic, but never specified where or how.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:29 am
Actually, Iwata did say it would include a touch screen.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:38 am
Can you tell us when he said that? (Iwata) WTF would the price of a controller with a damn LCD screen be? Not to mention how easily it would be broken. If this is remotely true I say it will be a touch PAD, not a display.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:53 am
A liquid crystal display on the controller would not exactly be over-the-top. And Iwata stated this at the Game Developer’s Conference.
May 5th, 2005 at 10:59 am
“Actually, Iwata did say it would include a touch screen.”
HAHAHA. OK. If there were a touch screen, WHAT WOULD IT DO!? You would have to glance back and forth from the TV to the Touch Screen every few seconds. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT.
A new Gamboy has not even been confirmed yet, and if there was one coming soon, we would know about it.
May 5th, 2005 at 11:03 am
Now for another feature: Foci Stabilizers. If you have ever put a pencil too close to your eyes and focused hard enough, you probably started to see more than one pencil. If you touch touch the pencil with your hand, you’ll see the same thing that has happened to the pencil happened to your hand. You will be touching the pencil, but it looks like two hands touching two pencils. With foci stabilizers, Nintendo can balance the dimensions and coordinations in the games it plays s that they always looks even and smooth.
May 5th, 2005 at 11:03 am
If Iwata stated that publicly at GDC we would all know. There is no need for a touch screen because the DS will function wirelessly as one for the console. End of story.
May 5th, 2005 at 11:08 am
IGNcube: Is the next Game Boy in development?
Reggie: There are a lot of rumors out there on the next Game Boy. And quite frankly, it’s a lot of rumor and speculation at this point. We’re always thinking about our next generation, whether it’s DS, whether it’s Revolution or whether it’s Game Boy Advance. When will that next system come out? We’ve got some time to go.

Can you explain this supposed foci stabilization in context of how it applies to a game?
May 5th, 2005 at 11:29 am
Don’t expect a new gameboy until nintendo comes up with something way more powerful than PSP addressing the following issues……..COST, GAME MEDIA, BATTERY LIFE, SIZE. You don’t want a portable device to be any bigger than they already are………you can increase screen resolution without making the screen bigger.
May 5th, 2005 at 11:45 am
Aries knew a response like this was coming from Matt, remember? Somewhere up there in that huge pile of posts, Aries said “Matt will answer a question about me in the mailbag soon, and I know what it is.” Matt is still backing Aries up in the sense that he’s publicly debunking him in the mailbag. Aries has told us things we shouldn’t know, so now Matt is making him seem like a fraud by saying “Aries is fake.” I think Matt is covering for all the things Aries has spilled out.
May 5th, 2005 at 11:56 am
What I want to know is what happens when your telling your character to sneak around or telling him critical steps, what happens when someone walks in the room and you start talking to them. I use teamspeak in a game on my PC. It’s voice sensitive so when I yell at my wife to make me a samich, everyone hears it. In SOCOM for the PS2, you have to hold down the “O” button to talk…
just thinking out loud.
May 5th, 2005 at 12:04 pm
Triple Question Mark is lying, it is written all over his posts. As for Aries, I still believe what he has told us is possible, though not very likely. Hopefully Aries will post this weekend… gosh, I see him as such a liar now!
We’ll have to wait for E3 to get the real truth, we have no other choice.
May 5th, 2005 at 12:22 pm
aries will be back
May 5th, 2005 at 12:29 pm
i would give aries more credibility if he came back… he knows that e3 is right around the corner and that not many people believe him now,although he may take advantage of the fact that matt wouldnt be able to confirm what aries said because matt is tied down to nda’s
May 5th, 2005 at 12:31 pm
if aries figured that cat is out of the bag and that he is caught lying, he probly wouldnt come back
May 5th, 2005 at 12:32 pm
Aries made total sense truth or not, except for the part about wireless controllers having all those features PLUS rumble and heat. Thats why i say for the sake of battery usage that the standard controller (if it has this stuff) will be wired, with the option for a wireless one that uses God knows how many batteries. The other option would be NO rumble NO heat standard wireless………..which is my best guess. Based on the direction this console is headed, innovative input is more important than innovative feedback.
May 5th, 2005 at 12:35 pm
“Triple Question Mark is lying, it is written all over his posts.”
Actually, what I’ve written is quite logical. You didn’t even care to elaborate upon how it is “written all over my posts”. You’re just shooting me down because you don’t feel I’m telling the truth.
And what is the point in the foci stabilizers you ask? It simply makes the view sharper and emphasizes concentration on the main character and important items. It better divides the back- and foregrounds. It makes them look clearer and fuses them better. It really is rather inexpensive on Nintendo’s part. They install a signal receptor in the system itself. The controller send the signal, and they work together to adjust the frequency for overall better gameplay.
May 5th, 2005 at 12:37 pm
though i doubt aries, he reminded me of the faith that i should have in nintendo… the revolution will still be sweet and im still hyped for it
May 5th, 2005 at 12:40 pm
And, I for one never said the Game Boy Evolution was coming anytime soon. I have no idea when it will be released. All I’m saying is that it will be compatible with the Revolution.
May 5th, 2005 at 12:45 pm
Rereading what Aries has said… it just sounds so unbelievably convincing. How? How could he do this to us? It just doesn’t seem right! I don’t understand. Why would anyone do something like this? It is so stupid. So evil. So very, very, very evil. I found this post of Aries while rereading through his evil posts:
“Anyone: When I first joined the studio I currently work at, we had just begun developing for the Nintendo Revolution. We recieved development kits early, but it took Nintendo a while to get us the controller details. That’s why I doubt it will be shown at E3. They have been trying to keep it under wraps for a long time now. It did not have different capabilities previous to the ones it has now. Like I said, it has gyroscopic and pressure sensitve controls. It never had touch screen controls; Game Informer wrote a very misleading artile on this aspect of the system. I will once again verify that the controller will be wireless. Microsoft stole this idea from Nintendo. ”
That sounds fishy. He left Nintendo in 2004, when he entered the studious, they’re already working with early Revolution kits? And according to Reggie, these kits are suppose to come around GDC…? Uh, too many questions; head aches badly.
And yet, this is so much very more conspicuous and… odd:
N-Query
Revolution, E3, and rumors from a poster named Aries.
Matt put that last part ‘and rumors from a poster named ARies.’ in the subdescription of N-Query… and he put it as the last, generally left to be most exciting or prominent message. It all seems too fishy.
So is Aries working with Matt? Is Aries really a lier? After telling us so solemnly, so confidentially, so strongly, “My credibility will be proved on May 19th, then you will see how I’ve been telling the truth.” Does Matt know a lot less than he seems to know? What is the truth? Can anyone look past the conspiracy, the propaganda to see the truth to this confusing, horrible, messy mess!?!
Sheesh… at this point, I’m not really looking forward to E3 with this mess on the way. Yet I am.
Nothing can be done. Aries may return or may not. Matt may have something in surprise for us, or may not. Nintendo may have an awesome system with a strong spark of third party support with members like Square Enix on it and having Nintnedo developer Eiji Aounma working with the brilliance of Hideo Kojima to make a new franchise game… or not.
We’ll have to see. That is a fact, and possibly, the only fact that exists.
May 5th, 2005 at 12:47 pm
WTF would the controller need a signal receptor in the controller for if this technology sharpens the video display? Man you make absolutely no sense. You’re trying to tell me a slightly sharper TV image will make gameplay better?
May 5th, 2005 at 12:53 pm
“WTF would the controller need a signal receptor in the controller for if this technology sharpens the video display? Man you make absolutely no sense. You’re trying to tell me a slightly sharper TV image will make gameplay better? ”
Haha! It’s amazing! How people talk about things they don’t understand, I mean. Do you know what gameplay is? It’s what connects the player with the character. Think about it for a moment. If the back- and foreground are more proportional, then the character (Who is apart of the forground layer) will also be more proportional. The gameplay will be smoother and less clunky. It’s that simple. And, if you read what I wrote, the controller’s not the one with the receptor. It’s the system. The controller sends the signal.
May 5th, 2005 at 12:55 pm
Im getting aggravated at all the lies. Most of us are too smart to be lied to.
May 5th, 2005 at 12:58 pm
anybody ever think that maybe matt and aries are the same person and just useing false backgrounds to differientate between the two so we wouldnt know??? Then he could contradict himself and never be in fear that someone would think its him and that hes breaking nda’s?????
May 5th, 2005 at 12:59 pm
Triple Question Mark, that acqusition doesn’t sound just. Gameplay isn’t chunky much as it is. This sound gimmicky and unrealistic.
May 5th, 2005 at 1:00 pm
Ok please assume for a sec that none of us know what u are talking about regarding foci (which we don’t). I sincerely want to understand you here. I need an example of clunky to compare it to. And you are saying the controller input will affect the focus of the display?
May 5th, 2005 at 1:01 pm
And yet you lcontinue to let this Aries character lie to you? If he speaks the truth, then why wouldn’t Game Informer correct themselves on the aspect of the Revolution’s touch screen controllers? The controllers will have touch screens. They will be wireless. They will have A, B, Y, and Z buttons. They will have a glass shield on the left that follows the direction of your thumb. Those are the facts. Whether you see them as logical or not. It really doesn’t matter if you don’t think it doesn’t make sense. If you don’t believe me, it’s not killing me. I’m not exactly crying over here. I’m just giving facts.

well most friendly japnese developer with nintnedo will receive kits before anyone else, also if truly sega is remaking vetorman for the rev, then they would have it early. in the business, it is all about who your friends are. its that simple.
May 5th, 2005 at 1:02 pm
I don’t think Matt and Aries are the same people; however, I think that it is possible either
a) Matt and Aries are working together to do this and create a major Nintendo hype splash. OR
b) Matt doesn’t have a clue what he’s talking about and Aries has always have been right.
Or, it could be option c): Matt is completely right, as Aries has completely lied.
May 5th, 2005 at 1:07 pm
Another snippet from one of Aries’s posts:
“I haven’t heard anything about a new Nights game, which is sad; Nights was a brilliant game. I have heard talk of a new Virtual Fighter though. Just talk though.
Vectorman isn’t coming out for the PS2. Sega was going to bring it to the current consoles, but the plan was scrapped. And no I don’t work for Pseudo Interactive. Or Silicon Knights. Funny you bring them up though. They will have one of the best games at E3. Outside of Zelda, Nintendo’s FPS (developed by Rare), and PD0, it will be the one of the best showings of E3.
I don’t have details on what game Squaresoft is working on. I know that it will be at E3 along with Final Fantasy 3 and FF:CC for the DS.
I’m not going to give out the secret. It’s going to be very fun; wait until E3. Nintendo is going to roll out a trojan horse: something that looks innocent and weak and them bam, it will be unveiled. Just don’t make up your mind on the first day of E3.”
That last line. It makes it seems as if Nintendo will indeed release a bunch of amazing information on May 19th to get us hyped up and such, leaving us with drizzles of sadness on May 17th. Or not. I’d be going with a not: this is just all pure blind speculation.
May 5th, 2005 at 1:07 pm
“Ok please assume for a sec that none of us know what u are talking about regarding foci (which we don’t). I sincerely want to understand you here. I need an example of clunky to compare it to. And you are saying the controller input will affect the focus of the display? ”
Alright. It’s like the Richter scale. In the game industry, we are judged by a scale. Gameplay actually depends a lot on graphics. I gameplay is “clunky” it gets a low grading. If it is “smooth” it gets a high rating. What exactly is clunky gameplay? It’s like when you direct your character and they follow vaguely. It’s also when your character moves slower than the amount f force you put behind the button implies it ought to. If it is smooth, direction is more acute and the character moves more with your thumb. It’s more fluid. The foci stabilizers will allow this to happen by opening up an entirely new dimension of gameplay. Clunkiness will, for the most part, be a triviality.
May 5th, 2005 at 1:10 pm
Thanks for narrowing it down buddy. I will rest easier now.
May 5th, 2005 at 1:10 pm
Those sound like some pretty horrible facts that will lead Nintendo to a dismal future Triple Question Mark.
May 5th, 2005 at 1:12 pm
How? I stated it would be inexpensive. It will also be easier for developers. they will, eventually, worry less about gameplay, since the foci stabilizers will fill in most of the gaps they left unclosed.
May 5th, 2005 at 1:20 pm
I’m talking about the controller. A ’shield’ that your thumb would follow? A touch screen with A, B, Y, and Z buttons? And I suppose X buttons just disappear when Z buttons are so much more important, huh? If what you said is true, I really doubt if I’m going to lay a hand on the Revolution. That sounds far past horrible, it sounds just plain demented.
May 5th, 2005 at 1:28 pm
now, about the touch screen controllers nintendos already stated that the controllers wont be touch screen BUT nintendo has a history of lying to us to get us excited when we learn what they said was just a lie to make us think in the wrong direction just like zelda and its new look. i wonder how much of the “oficial” info they have stated has been true and how much of it has been a lie
May 5th, 2005 at 1:41 pm
Yeah, but having a touch screen controller would completely stink; many people feel this way. It simply isn’t practical or logical, it wouldn’t be a smart move, and many people hate the idea. That’s partly why I don’t believe Third Question Mark. I’m not gullible is another reason. And the last is that I’m not sure if believing anyone is smart anymore; is sensible at all for that matter.
May 5th, 2005 at 2:21 pm
Ahoy! While thinking about this whole matter of Matt shooting down Aries, a light bulb appeared over my head. What if Aries IS Matt? Very unlikely, but it would have some sence to it. Matt has weekends off, and since April had no Gamecube games for Matt to review or cover, he pretended to be Aries to share his information with us due to lack of work. Aries stopped posting Sunday, since Matt had to get back to work at IGN on Monday. Matt wanted to keep people guessing about the Rev before finally writing a mailbag on Wednesday, shooting down Aries to make himself in the clear. Matt also wrote a “What to Expect at E3 from Nintendo” and said that we won’t see the NRev in any shape or form, only ideas about the system. This might have also been to cover himself up.
I barely believe it myself, but it very well could be true. You just never know. Let’s all wait for E3, shall we?
May 5th, 2005 at 3:03 pm
“Gameplay actually depends a lot on graphics.” my ass it does. tetris has awesome gameplay, and your just looking at blocks.
“What exactly is clunky gameplay? It’s like when you direct your character and they follow vaguely.” no, thats just the result of poor programming. “the controller sends the signal”…you mean the controller sends the video and audio signals to the TV?. even if everything else sounded bad, this takes the cake. do you even realise how slow its gonna take for the image to get to the screen? input from controlller -> console, which processes it through the CPU, GPU and sound processor. then your saying this gets sent back to the controller to be sent to the tv? thats simply creating more work and overhead that simply is not needed. nintendo isn’t that stupid.
second, if you want to make the foreground sharper, don’t anti-alias.
a filter on the machine to make things sharper? please. if u want a sharper image, buy a better tv. only thing u could put between the console and video feed is a filter that cleans out the noise.
i will keep my x button and analogue sticks thank you.
iwata has said that they don’t want to make a home console where u’ll have to look at two screens, therefore no touch screen on controller. i have iwata’s speech from GDC, and the only thing he mentioned about the revolution was that it would be backwards compatable and have free online service using WiFi
gyroscopes is a known fact by now. Gyration Inc is the company nintendo partnered with for the wireless in the wavebird, and their contract hasn’t finished yet, so it seems obvious Gyration will supply the gyros for the controller.
finally, for all the ppl that keep bringing these things up:
- the “one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes” thing is a website: http://www.onefishtwofishredfishbluefish.org/revrumors.html
it has nothing to do with IGN
- texture/heat feedback is already possible. these are called “haptic devices” and range from simple rumble packs to what aries is telling us the revolution controller will use. have a look at http://www.utoronto.ca/atrc/reference/tech/haptic.html for a better description
May 5th, 2005 at 3:04 pm
“I’m talking about the controller. A ’shield’ that your thumb would follow? A touch screen with A, B, Y, and Z buttons?

That sounds far past horrible, it sounds just plain demented. ”
That’s what’s called fiending. Calm down. I meant X. And why don’t you get the shield thing? It’s a piece of smooth, pseudoglass. When you touch it, it moves your character. In most games, touching the exact center won’t move the character at all. But in others, If you touch the center, it will help the character balance. And the prototype I saw is quite old. I haven’t been sent one in two months. I don’t know for sure: Maybe they did remove the touch screen. I do, however, know some changes must have been made, because we are being sent anopther prototype booklet in two more months. We will be sent the E3 prototype a day before E3. And they will most likely have the new Pikmin release and a few new GameCube exclusives on display.
May 5th, 2005 at 3:19 pm
that website was first posted by the “one eye, two eye” guy btw
May 5th, 2005 at 3:21 pm
I see what ??? means. I was at first thinking of a LoZ shield. But ow I see: he mean a smooth flat marble-like thing. If you touch it, the char moves.
May 5th, 2005 at 4:52 pm
Hmm…a sheild. Another poste posted information like this in the new blog, and his name ws Iliss.
May 5th, 2005 at 5:16 pm
I do get the shield thing, though I do now get it better than I did before. And I still think the same exact thing of it: completely stupid. Why should anyone use some shield when we HAVE control sticks already? I still doubt what you say Triple Question Mark, very highly.
May 5th, 2005 at 5:18 pm
This is why i believe Aries. Its pretty obvious to see that Triple Question Mark is a liara, Aries would have to really be a damn good story teller to have done all this
May 5th, 2005 at 5:27 pm
“I don’t know for sure: Maybe they did remove the touch screen.”
Thats a pretty drastic change.
“And the prototype I saw is quite old. I haven’t been sent one in two months.”
So now you have an importance that allows you to recieve the prototype? In that case, how come you didn’t mention that before?
Good lord, No more. *runs off to May 17th*
May 5th, 2005 at 5:39 pm
Aries is a fuckin bitch id like to rip out his spinal cord then beat him with it, then slap him with my dick
May 5th, 2005 at 9:54 pm
WOW. Some of you truly amaze me.
Seems like IGN’s Matt is some kind of a gaming god for some of us, and they take everything he says as a pure fact. I’d really suggest you start using your own brains a bit more. Matt has been wrong in the past and will be wrong in the future, his words are by no means the absolute truth, only some industry hearsay and his own speculation and opinions. He’s just a regular gamer like all of us, who happens to work at a gaming site. He’s not at the top of the industry by any means; in fact, to me it seems he’s trying to sound more knowledgeable than he really is. And with his recent bad attitude - almost hatred - towards Nintendo, does anyone really expect him to get the full scoop on what’s going on with their next-generation plans? I’m surprised he even works at IGNCube at this point, as his interests have clearly drifted elsewhere.
It’s funny, the same people who praised Aries a week ago for his comments are now practically ready to slaughter him, even though nothing has been officially confirmed correct or false yet. One IGN mailbox update doesn’t make it fake, nor does Aries’ few posts on a message board mean it must be 100% true, but I’ll have to say he sounded extremely convincing. Give the man a break for now; if after E3 everything turns out to be bogus, then you can start sharpening your knives. Right now, though, everyone claims to know something and as these statements wildly contradict each other, we can safely say everyone can’t be true on this. In less than two weeks we will see who had the most info on Revolution, or was able to make the most accurate guesses.. Until then, it’s all just rumors… It’s a shame if someone didn’t realize that.
May 6th, 2005 at 5:28 am

Actually I did mention that. It’s no secret to people in the know. And I don’t care how drastic the change seems to you: If you’ll recall I never said they were removing the touch-screen for sure. You all kept saying you knew they were, so I said maybe they will.
“Why should anyone use some shield when we HAVE control sticks already?”
Because the shield opens new possibilities of direction. Centerring it, in some games, allows the character to balance. And if you touch to the far left, it amps up more speed than it would be able to even with an anolog stick. It also gives developers far more room to create. Listen. I’m not here to make anyone believe me. Believe what you want: It’s a free world. I’m just here to tell people interested in what it may looki like, what it may look like. So instead of trying to find little potential flaws in what I’ve written, why don’t you let people who do believe me believe me and not have to be discouraged by you.

In case you don’t know I’m the one who wrote those past few messages. Just goes to show you: Anyone can be anyone in the net and also that anyone can make up fake stuff on the net. Let that be a message before you really start believing this Aires guy. You can just cut out your name and put someone else’s.

No fools… It’s me! See? For all any of you know, I’ve been playing out every oither character besides your self. So dont believe whatcha hear on the net, kiddies. This is too much fun! Every one who wants to stop believing in these false prophets say I!
May 6th, 2005 at 6:06 am
True, person killer. Now we know exactly who you are. You are both Aries is a liar and you pretend to be Brooke (Although sometimes you forget to type in her name), Aries, me , and possibly even a few other posters. As a matter of fact, you could be me right now. But you aren’t. Whatt pk has said is actuall quite true. Although he was, again, attempting to mock me and make me sound like a whining little girl. The fact is, if you work for developers, they get these booklets every few months. How else can they get to work? The Revolution certainly isn’t going to be released with no release titles. The shield actually is smoother and easier to manage than the analog sticks. And, it does open up new dimensions with the balance feature and more potential in the velocity department. It actually does make it easier for developers to unleash mor of their ideas. And, as a matter of fact, the shield is almost as he explained as Arie is a liar. It is like a marble, except it’s flatter and it doesn’t roll. It stays in place ad your finger rolls with it.

In case you don’t know I’m the one who wrote those past few messages. Just goes to show you: Anyone can be anyone in the net and also that anyone can make up fake stuff on the net. Let that be a message before you really start believing this Aires guy. You can just cut out your name and put someone else’s.

Okay Triple Question Mark, stop it. We just talked about how you shouldn’t do these things today. I’m your friend speaking here, and you know who I am; don’t play stupid. You have know clue what the Revolution is, we’ve already been over that a million times. I cannot believe you’re actually now forcing me to go on this blog you’ve been talking about just to humiliate you in front of these people to unmask you and show that you’ve lied. None of these people believe you anyways. I trust you won’t do this again. It is unbelievably cruel to do these kind of things. I really wish I knew why you’re doing this. Just stop. This blog doesn’t need more than one confusing person saying what the Revolution supposedly is. And when I know one of those people are lying, I sadly have to go out to stop it. So do stop, Triple Question Mark. Lying is a sin; you know better than that.

“Maybe the key is in Aries’s chosen name.
Aries, in FFVII, was someone who inspired people, and brought hope and peace. She made everyone fall in love with her.
And then she was killed. She failed. Brutally.
So what is it Aries…. are you just trying to sell us flowers?
Or when all is said and done… are we going to kill you?
Haha ”
The truest ish on this blog i want to believe you aries i really do a part of does a part of me doesn’t if this is true i think i will buy the new nintendo console but as you say we shall find out at E3.

Aries? It was Aeris in the US, and Aerith in Japan.
You know, even if Aries was a complete liar, I have to respect him, because he was damned good at it. Triple Question Mark is trying so hard, even after he said that everything “Fredricks” said was true, even after Fredricks explicitly said at the end of his post:
“That was the truth… Psyche! Aries is still a liar though. I have no life.”
He didn’t even finish reading Fredrick’s post. And now he’s trying to get people to believe him, and failing miserably… jumping from your eyes going out of focus to how you push buttons changing gameplay… it’s just amateurish. Fuck, I could lie better than that. At least Aries was a damn professional.
Oh well. Aries, even if you are a liar, thanks. At least you helped build up some hype for the Revolution… Nintendo has been so tight-lipped about it that the media didn’t even seem to care, instead focusing on possibly fake PS3 and Xbox 360 photos and the totally asinine [OMG OUR COLONY LOL ^____^]. Even if the Revolution falls short of everything you say, I’m at least looking forward to it again.

You really don’t get it? I did read the whole the thing. The thing is, he’s right about most of the things. He must work at Nintendo to know all of this. I stated that, incase you didn’t recall. Listen. The main character is in the foreground, is he not? So, foci stabilizers will make it so that the character’s movements are more acute. It better merges both the fore- and backgrounds. The characters’ proportional distance in the foreground and from the background are all optimized. It’s simple.

GAH says: “You know, even if Aries was a complete liar, I have to respect him, because he was damned good at it.”
Youre joking, right? Youre saying that if hes a liar, hell still earn your respect. Anyone who would go this far to degrade nintendo fans and make them feel bad deserves to be shot. Sure, going a bit is ok, but he really left us all with the sense that hes telling the truth, and he never relented. So, if he did all that just to annoy us, he truly NEEDS A LIFE and eanrs absolutely no respect from me at all
May 6th, 2005 at 4:28 pm
It has been a long week but I managed to spare some time today. I reviewed the posts that I missed. Matt, if you ever read this; you do well trying to cover the truth, but I only revealed minimal information. I do not feel that I am spoiling anything. On anther line: I must say I am really disapointed of the behaviors alot of people on this blog showed after Matt anouncement. I tought I was very objective when I mentionned it; you will all know the truth at E3. Do not take away someone’s credibility before it definitly proved that he is lying. I’ve seen that my good intentions turned out to be very problematic. I will probably awnser few questions on the following two days but no more. On this I say it again; you will have to wait untill E3 to really know the truth.
May 6th, 2005 at 4:31 pm
The gaming and virtual reality manufacturer, eDimensional, have stated that the rumor concerning Nintendo licensing their patented “stereoscopic 3D technology” within their next console, the Revolution, is false. Nintendo and eDimensional have not been in any type of discussion or negotiation about implementing the technology with their console.
“Due to the overwhelming number of phone calls and emails inquiring
about this we felt the need to acknowledge that eDimensional is in no
formal discussion or negotiation with Nintendo regarding our
stereoscopic 3D technology,” stated eDimensional CEO Michael Epstein.
If you would like to know more about eDimensional and their 3D technology, check out their official website by clicking here.

May 6th, 2005 at 4:43 pm
I heard that another source reveal that Factor 5 was working on a Rouge Squadrion 4. It would use some of the functions you metioned.
things stated.
-Heat feedback when you are under fire
-Voice recongnition to talk to your wingman
-200 people online at once
-GTA like gameplay from person to vehicle and back again
This person also says his source tell him that Revolution will be out this year in November, with a Mario Game packed in, the system will cost 200+ and the games will be 39.99 suggested retail priced. There will be a Zelda game at launch too.
I can’t believe that info about the Revo coming out in 2005, but the Rouge Squad. info is in line with what you say (Only you didn’t metion it in you list of line ups you knew about)
So what say you Aries?
PS. I know Matts a good man, but when he said that only three people in the world know about the Revolution. I took that as pure bull. He of all people should know better than that.
May 6th, 2005 at 4:50 pm
Anwar, youre obviously lying
May 6th, 2005 at 4:51 pm
aries I see you are back,
so what else can you tell us today.
question for you?
since the revoltuion has gyros, a rumble pack isn’t needed anymore, since gyros can produce rumble. so will nintndo use the gyro’s for both functions?
May 6th, 2005 at 4:53 pm
he migth be but rouge squadron will be sweet with gyro controls. the force will be with me on that.
aries, do you work for panovison games
May 6th, 2005 at 5:07 pm
Shut up Aries. Your gay.
May 6th, 2005 at 5:10 pm
Aries, now that you happen to be online once again, I hope my faith in you can be restored. Please answer my questions:
1. Is the response Matt gave the one you foresaw?
2. Why and how is Matt wrong about what he said? How is information usually regulated throughout the video game industry? Could you be specific?
3. You seem to be sometimes too detailed pertaining to different things. Like how you mentioned that Pokemon Diamond/Pearl would be more like the cartoon, in a sense with Wi-Fi. And then how you know that Square Enix has an RPG. It is rather hard for me to believe that you can have SO many connections in the industry and learn so much.
4. You’ve given powerful reasons why we should believe you before. Could you give us a generalization of why, and how Matt is wrong to do the things he has said, or what was wrong with what he has said.
I’m not at very good odds with you Aries. Like you made a reference to, if someone told you that there’d be a realistic Zelda shown at E3 and there wasn’t, you’d be dissapointed, if most of these things don’t appear in E3, I’ll be distraught. Could you please either seperately assign answeres to each or just give a large generalized answer to all 4 questions/statements.
May 6th, 2005 at 5:16 pm
Aries. We know your lying. I think Aries is the fakest of all these guys. He thinks he’s so smart. Guess what, Aries? I know who you are! Aries? His name is Emerson Bowman. He lives on 257 Ave. P in Westchester. He is fourteen years old. He goes to P.S. 326 Parochial. He just learned about the Nintendo Revolution in last month’s Game Informer. We were making fun of it, then we learned it was a parody. Now he’s on this website telling you all fake stuff about it so he can laugh at you in the real world for believing him. His favorite sport is bowling. He once, in fourth grade, accidentally fell on the teacher, Mr. Chopard. He likes airplanes Stop being gay.
May 6th, 2005 at 5:41 pm
I wonder if this is a fake Aries?
Give us something, maybe new, maybe about last time you were posting, to legitimize yourself as the real, but still maybe fake (Matt’s N-query), Aries.
May 6th, 2005 at 5:50 pm
I suspect the talk about all this wireless gizmos on the Revolution will lead to something like, a wireless visual 3-D helmet that would allow you to look around. I imagine you could do something first-personish to look around, and use the controler to do other stuff. Or maybe the helmet could be used in certain games/situations. It’s a pretty cool thought. It’d be like playing Metroid Prime: Hunters, without losing a hand to the bottom screen. And think of what you could use the rest of those buttons for. Of course, this is all just rumor. It’s a pretty fun thought and, even though I don’t know much about this stuff, think it would be all that hard, but boosting prices significantly if it’s expensive. Whatever Satoru Iwata has in store, I am confident it will be amazing.

Aries, by posting what you posted already opened the gates of hell for the Nintendo fans. Every word you say puts us further into confusion about who is the real you or if you even exist. So for everyone elses safty and Nintendo’s (we dont want sony or microsoft taking the gyroscope and pressure grip ideas) please, dont post anymore info. Enjoy your life and post back after E3 if you are true. If not, then dont post or ever come back.

This is the Broken Saints blog, huh? It’s even larger than I thought it’d be. I guess you people believe this Aries, huh? Well I’m here to say that he’s lying. Aries has been the subject of many threads all over the net. I am Griphon. I work for a games developer at Nintendo of America. I used to work for Capcom, but got fired sometime after Mega Man X was released. Then I worked for Coby. There, I learned a lot about business and product development. I quit after a few years and went on to work at Nintendo of America. And, this Matt at ign’s information is incorrect. As Triple Question Mark stated, there would be no way for games developers to develop their games if they didn’t know the Revolution’s format. The system, would indeed, be released with no release titles. Contrary to popular belief, the system will not sport a touch screen. At one time during development, Nintendo chairman Satoru Iwata did in fact include a touch screen in the controller’s blueprint. Unfortunately, it was incredibly hideous looking, the liquid crystal display took up entirely too much space, and it didn’t seem very cost efficient. Also contrary to popular belief, the system will not use holograms. This seems like an absolutely useless aspect. It was never even bought up. The system will be shaped like a standard DVD player and be white. It is being codenamed Nintendo Revolution as of now. Nothing more. The system will also have an online feature. And what The Truth Teller said about the Dual Screen option is also true. The system will not be compatible with DVD ROMS. The system will operate at 128-bits and will be capable of 256GFLOPS The controller will be wireless and up to four can link to the system via Wifi. There will also be a microphone on the phone and gyro sensors inside of it. The controllers will, in fact, be pressure sensitive. Pressing certain pressure points wil activate in-game reactions. The controller will feature L and R buttons no directional pad, Start, A, B, X, Y, and Z buttons. I know this because I work for Nintendo. I may not be in a huge department, but we still all know. Most game developers out there know. So no matter what Matt tells you, it simply isn’t true. Of course the big boys aren’t the only ones who know. That wouldn’t make any sense.
May 6th, 2005 at 6:45 pm
i don’t think people have realised yet, but stereoscopic 3D can’t be done by software alone. to work properly you need either the goggles or an autostereoscopic TV set. the only way to do it with software is to draw the picture twice slightly offset from centre(center for all you americans :-P) then sit a certain distance from your TV which is proportional to the size of your TV. and nintendo’s not about to supply TVs with the revolution (unless of course the revolution is a console/TV hybrid, which i doubt…nonetheless, thats kinda revolutionary)
microsoft is so close to releasing their next console that they won’t trying and rush a gyroscopic feature into the controllers and SDK. and nobody’s saying what sony’s up to, even tho sony themselves are saying that the PS3 is more than a power leap
May 6th, 2005 at 6:51 pm
This isn’t the real Aries, close, but doesn’t sound like him and way too many mistakes.
And who is this Bellzebul guy?
Care to add anything else? What about what Aries was saying about the controller getting warm/hot?
May 6th, 2005 at 7:05 pm
Hmm. Still waiting for you, Aries.
May 6th, 2005 at 7:07 pm
The controller getting warm or hot? That wasn’t bought up. Frankly, that sounds rather stupid. How does it amplify the gaming experience? It’s a game controller, not a thermal back massager. As a matter of fact, that option is dangerous enough in a thermal back massager.
May 6th, 2005 at 7:12 pm
Anything else you would like to share Beelzebul?
Comment on all the games Aries has been talking about?
Comment on any new mergers? 3rd party exclusives or better relationships with Nintendo?
May 6th, 2005 at 7:15 pm
“I guess you people believe this Aries, huh? Well I’m here to say that he’s lying.”
well, your confirming alot of what he told us. and at the end of your post, u actually reinforce the idea that if aries was in fact a developer, he’d know alot of what he’s told us anyway.
and also, touch screen on the controller doesn’t sound like that popular of an idea. most of us think its a horrendous idea. and 256GFLOPs sounds an aweful lot like the CELL chip IBM made for Sony
“The system will be shaped like a standard DVD player” - yeah, that sounds on the ball. Reggie said that nintendo felt one of its mistakes was making something that didn’t quite look like other home entertainment machines.
May 6th, 2005 at 7:17 pm

May 6th, 2005 at 9:37 pm
For those who haven’t figured it out: THE LAST ARIES THAT IS POSTING IS FAKE. Aries never had perfect spelling or grammar, but the last posts are a bit over the top. Even if you can’t tell the OBVIOUS difference between the original and the new one, the new one just said this:
“1. Actually not at all. In fact I wasen’t really expecting Matt to awnser it. I tought he would keep silence on it.”
Earlier, the real Aries said that he was aware Matt would comment on him in the next mailbag and that he already knew what Matt would say. So the new Aries is not the original.
“Youre joking, right? Youre saying that if hes a liar, hell still earn your respect.”
I’m not one for holding grudges. If someone pulls an elaborate prank on me, I’ll be able to laugh about it later on. So yes, if Aries turns out to be a fake at E3, when I look back, I WILL find this terribly amusing. If he’s a fake, he’s damn good at it.
“You really don’t get it? I did read the whole the thing. The thing is, he’s right about most of the things. He must work at Nintendo to know all of this. I stated that, incase you didn’t recall.”
Yes, I do remember. That doesn’t change the fact that that is what the majority of us would call ‘covering our ass.’
“Listen. The main character is in the foreground, is he not? So, foci stabilizers will make it so that the character’s movements are more acute. It better merges both the fore- and backgrounds. The characters’ proportional distance in the foreground and from the background are all optimized. It’s simple.”
There is no such thing as a “foci stabilizer.” Anywhere. First off, Nintendo admits that they aren’t including any new technology, just technology that has not previously been applied to videogames. Secondly, this is obviously the sort of thing Nintendo would have patented, and guess what? They don’t have it patented.
Beelzebul: You are also a terrible liar.
May 6th, 2005 at 9:38 pm
Oh, and whats this duel screen option?
May 6th, 2005 at 9:41 pm

Also, whats the word on you being at E3? Going to make a presentation and make reference to some movie? Which movie?
May 6th, 2005 at 9:44 pm
Screw Aries, lets see what this other guy has to say, and if he rly is the real deal. Bexeebeel, or wtvr your name is, somehow prove to us you are from NOA. If you can, the attention will be on you, and you will have stolen Aries’ thunder
May 6th, 2005 at 9:55 pm
In additiong to stealing Aries’ thunder, he would be sued by Nintendo for breaking an NDA.
But that’s okay. He’s a fake either way, so he couldn’t provide evidence even if he wanted to.

No I’m not. Thats what I have been told. Matt C at IGN adimatly states that Factor 5 is not working on any Revo games. My source says he was told otherwise. I wanted to know if it was so, but unfortunaly this blog is becoming a blur. So i’ll wait till E3.
May 6th, 2005 at 10:24 pm
Anwar Wilkerson (BanY)……..
What source told you otherwise?
Factor 5 is not going to make any more games for Nintendo right now, they are gone, bye, even Matt said so, and so did Aries.
Who are you and where are you getting your crazy sources?

Who are you? I know what Matt Said, and I know what Aries said (re read my post) which is why I ask, just to see I he would reconfirm, but obviously that person was fake. My source came form a forum, so I deem him incredible, and rumored untill E-3. Now what about this other part about the Revo being released this year? I find that higly unlikely.
May 6th, 2005 at 10:59 pm
When is the real Aries going to come back? Even if he was fake, he was great to read.
Come back Aries!!!
May 6th, 2005 at 11:00 pm
Wow. Whoever you are Aries, real or not, even if your some sony or xbox fanboy youve done an awesome thing. You sparked hope and imagination into many people. I think its at the point where it doesent even matter if your who you say you are or not.
May 7th, 2005 at 1:24 am
It’s sad to see this thread has died because of the gazillions of spammers and fakers, as some quality conversations could have come out of this. It’s already around 36522656564 miles long and I’m not sure if there’s really any point on keeping up with this crap anymore. Real Aries and good discussions are long gone and most of the remaining people are either a) sad Aries copycats who can’t even spell correctly and everyone with brains can tell from hundred miles away that they’re full of shit, or b) fanboys who are bling followers for what IGN’s Matt or these fake Aries’ say and have no real opinions/views on their own, or c) for some other reason just not making any sense at all, repeating stuff and alltogether seem like they don’t keep up with the conversation or have problems comprehending what is said.
Of course there are few exceptions to this rule - I won’t name no names - who make a whole lot of sense and are mature enough for reasonable conversation; I’d love to continue discussion with these guys. But I don’t think anything can come out of this thread at this point, which is truly a shame. Maybe I’m better of waiting until E3 than reading pages and pages of nonsense…
May 7th, 2005 at 1:46 am
Time for me to drop another bomb on all of you.
This is all part of the ruse — Brooke, Aries, IGN - All of it.
You are the first members of the game that Aries spoke of. Unknowing participants in a genius plot that Nintendo his constructed. In this game, Nintendo has made the public the stars of the show — Broadway *cough* — Hollywood *cough*. Knowing the truth myself, I’m having a hell of time watching this unfold before me. Nothing like this has been done before in this industry. The grand unveiling…the showstopper.
Don’t believe me? You’re not supposed to
May 7th, 2005 at 2:00 am
Waltuo……I couldn’t agree more.
Hopefully the real Aries will get time this weekend to come back, which he said he might last Sunday. We can only hope……otherwise, E3 isn’t coming fast enough!
May 7th, 2005 at 2:16 am
Hawkins_Tripped…..Is there more coming?
Besides Brooke, Aries, and IGN?
But didn’t Brooke do something like this last generation, speculating on the Gamecube, doesn’t he always do this? There has to be more.
May 7th, 2005 at 3:29 am
Okay everyone, I know what to do. It is a word that we all don’t particular like. It is a word that isn’t particularly the easiest thing to do. And it is a word that we really have no option to not do:
Wait.
No, not until Aries comes back. But until E3. Then we should know everything. On May 17th, 2005, when we come home from school or work, we can turn on our computers, after waiting for SO long, and finally see the real truth. We’ll see who’s right. We’ll be able to look past the conspiracy, the fog, into the truth. But we have to wait. That is the only thing we can do.
May 7th, 2005 at 6:25 am
ARIES IS A FAKE. The Proof!!!
Stop acting like Aries is a insider, he is just a fanboy, a very inteligent fanboy with good imagination. He made some mistakes though.
One major mistake that i could remember was about the new Zelda.
Aries wrote:
“The new Zelda is very interesting. Nintendo still hasn’t even decided on whether this one follows the Wind Waker or precedes Ocarina of Time. That’s one of the reasons that there isn’t a title right now”
This is just ridicule. Last year E3, Aonuma said that Nintendo had a solid story behind the new zelda and that the new game will follow the Wind Waker. Just check his interviews and see it for yourself.
May 7th, 2005 at 6:47 am
Doesn´t proof anything!
May 7th, 2005 at 6:56 am
Sorry, it´s “prove”!
May 7th, 2005 at 6:59 am
I find it interesting that Beelzebul & Aries said the same thing about the controller. All the buttons like GameCube without the d-pad. Gyroscopic /w pressure sensative handles.
Now if we could only get some info on what game demos will be shown besides a developer interview reel.
May 7th, 2005 at 7:11 am
Oh. I hadn’t know. I trhought he was telling people that it would be called N5 and be shaped like an orb. And I don’t know how he can possibly know so much about all these games. Seriously. Think about it. If Aries really left Nintendo in 2004, then he has to be referring to some pretty ancient blueprints. The prototypes get revised every six weeks or so. I know little more about the Revolution than any of you, but I am willing to spill some beans. I will not tell which department I work(ed) in, because that would narrow any search for me. Know that there will be no heat pack. That would be stupid. Also, there will be no holograms. That was never even bought up by Nintendo. And there will be no rumble feture.
May 7th, 2005 at 7:15 am
Excuse me. I meant the will be “a” rumble feature, not “no”.
May 7th, 2005 at 7:22 am
I think I blieve Beelzebul. Come to think of it, that heat sensative thig dose sound abit on the stupid side.
May 7th, 2005 at 8:04 am
Well it’s not stupid or ridiculous at all. Just depends how you interpret it. It’s all about you being able to actually feel ingame surfaces, temperature changes and the like. That would truly make the gaming experience much more immersive don’t you think? For the first time, you cannot only interact and since recently touch your games, now you can even feel them.
May 7th, 2005 at 8:12 am
Fist off, I’d like to apologize. I thought that Aries claimed he quit Nintendo last year. Now I know that he said that he works for a developer. I don’t understand what he means by that. Is he the developer’s personal assistant? Does he get his/her coffee hor him/her every morning? I don’t see ho someone who works for a developer would be given so much information. And in response to Ron: I think I see what you mean. But when would a feature like this have an opportunity to be applied? When you’re fighting vigorouysly in a new Mortal Kombat game the controller gets to 70°F? And no one would be foolish enough to do such a thing, as it would be incredibly dangerous.
May 7th, 2005 at 8:14 am
I’ll only believe what the real Aries says. All these sudden “insiders” that have popped up are just trying to reel us in. Beelzebul is just a horrible liar, and I absolutely KNOW that Anwar’s “source” is just forum gossip. I believe in what Aries says because he talks with such confidence, and in such a way where you can tell he’s not just spouting lies to make us look like fools. Even if he IS lying (which I doubt), he’s done Nintendo and it’s fanbase a huge service: he’s gotten all of us excited. Even a few non-Nintendo fans have taken interest into the Revolution from all that Aries has said. A lot of you say you’ll be furious if Aries is lying, but look at it this way: he’s gotten people thinking about Nintendo for once. Not a lot of gamers are interested in Nintendo nowadays, and when thinking of games, most people go on and on about their Playstation 2’s and XBox’s. They don’t even consider Nintendo. But Aries has told us things that are making even the most Nintendo-hating casual gamer take interest into Nintendo again. We owe Aries for that.
May 7th, 2005 at 8:24 am
How is Beelzebul a horrible liar? You only say this because you have grown to trust this Aries. His information is flawed and the heat option makes no sense. I’d rather believe you were Aries, but I have no way of proving this. As you have no way of proving that Beelzebul is a liar. And how it shows. You state: Beelzebul is “just” a horrible liar. I have taken classes in psychology. Now, every person has reason for thinking the way that they think. And for you to say Beelzebul is “just” a horrible liar proves you cannot back up your statement with even a few resources. You have no motive; you just choose to believe this Aries, although his theories are blatantly flawed and outlandish.
May 7th, 2005 at 8:27 am
Man. This guy reminds me of Kamrama from Yu Yu Hakusho for some reason.
May 7th, 2005 at 8:32 am
Aries has done Nintendo a service? Aries has made a jackass of Nintendo. Do you know how far spread his rumors have gotten into the Internet? I never visit web forums or blogs, but after hearing of Aries, I simply had to visit this one. He obviously makes no sense.
May 7th, 2005 at 8:44 am
But Aries has created more hype for the Revolution. As for you, Beelzebul, you, as well as Aries have no proof to back up anything you’ve both said. But Aries doesn’t relent, and he types a full page’s worth of text everytime he responds. I don’t think he would spend so much time of his day elaborating on something like this if it were just a big lie. You, however have just recently started to go on and on about what you know. I think you do this because Aries isn’t around to shoot down your lies.
May 7th, 2005 at 9:24 am
For some time there has been speculation with Nintendo working on 3D. Aries said it was not true. Well, earlier this week Nintendo has come out and said that they were not working on 3D. This is something Aries told us a few weeks before Nintendo said anything on the matter.
May 7th, 2005 at 10:33 am
Of course it’s going to be 3D. Do you mean holograms? Only an absolute moron would truly believe they would use holograms. As i said, this was never even bought up. And Aries shoot down my lies? What right has he? He supposedly works for a developer. Think about it. Would they really give the guy who makes cofee for a developer such dire information? Because that’s pretty much what working for a developer is: being his/her personal assistant. And how does he know so much about video game projects? It’s insane enough that he said they were releasing a third Pikmin game, but to know what other development teams besides Nintendo are doing? Does that sound logical to you. Aires can come over here for all I care. I don’t see what he would do. He would probably just invent new insane propositions on what the Revolution’s controller is capable of.
May 7th, 2005 at 10:36 am
That is only a coincidence. By no mean a proof.
May 7th, 2005 at 10:41 am
Seriously. Think about it. Do you really think Aries is the only individual who distrusted this hologram theory? Have you seen holograms? They aren’t that realistic. The games would have terrible quality. Aries is lying. Why must he post so often? Why? Is it to be talked about? Why not just get straight to the point in one post? What purpose does giving you little tidbits of information serve? If he’s going to make you wait, he might as well not post at all and make you wait until the year 2006. And a heat pack? That really is unbelievably preposterous. And again, you say I lie when, unlike Aries’, my information is nowhere near outlandish.

AM I THE ONLY ONE HERE WHO HAS READ THE GAMESPOT FEATURE ON THE NEXT-GEN RUMORS???? THEY LIST EVERYTHING THAT ARIES HAS COME TO SAY ON THIS FORUM. FOR SOME REASON, THEY CREDIT E-MPIRE FORUMS AND NOT BROKENSAINTS. IT IS PRETTY FUNNY, BECAUSE THEY LIST THE SOUCE AS “ONE BIGMOUTHED DEVELOPER” SO, COULD THEY BE GIVING ANY CREDENCE TO WHAT ARIES HAS HAD TO SAY.
.
TO REITERATE, I AM AN EMPLOYEE FOR THE SEATTLE MARINERS, SO I DO SEE NINTENDO PEOPLE EVERY NOW AND THEN. IT WAS AWESOME IN EARLY APRIL WHEN THE MARINERS INVITED ALL THE JOURNALISTS UP HERE TO PREVIEW THEIR “PENNANT CHASE BASEBALL” GAME, I GOT TO MEET BILLY BERGHAMMER AND MATT C. THESE TWO ARE TRUE NINTENDO ENTHUSIASTS. I AM GLAD THAT MY FAVORITE VIDEOGAME COMPANY ALSO OWNS MY FAVORITE SPORTS TEAM, AND I GET TO WORK FOR THE MARINERS. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE BE SPECIFIC, I’LL ANSWER THEM WHEN I CAN.
I DON’T HAVE ANY GAMES UNTIL FRIDAY THE 13TH, SO I SHALL HAVE SOME TIME TO READ UP ON THESE BLOGS. WE PLAY THE WORLD SERIES CHAMPS REDSOX ON FRIDAY, SO ROOT FOR US, THEN MAYBE ALL THE RUMORS WILL COME TRUE, LOL.
I DO HAVE SOME INFO, BUT I AM NOT GOING TO MAKE UP LIES. REMEMBER I WORK FOR THE SEATTLE MARINERS BASEBALL CLUB, SO I HAVE NOT NEEDED TO SIGN AN “NDA” . SO WHAT I HAVE HEARD WILL BE TRUTHFUL, I WILL NOT GIVE ANY SOURCE WHATSOEVER, SO PLEASE DON’T ASK FOR ONE. I WORK IN MARKETING, SO I DO GO IN FROM 8-4 MON-FRIDAY, BUT I WILL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME AFTER THAT. ON GAME NIGHTS, I AM IN THE CLUB SUITE, SO DON’T GO LOOKING FORM ME ON HERE THEN,
HERE IS THE RUMOR POSTED ON GAMESPOT, REMEMBER “BIGMOUTHED DEVELOER”
RUMOR #2: One bigmouthed developer has leaked a boatload of details on the Nintendo Revolution.
Source: The forums of E-mpire.com.
The official story: “Nintendo does not comment on rumors or speculation.”–Nintendo spokesperson.
What we heard: Hot on the heels of last week’s rumor that the Revolution might include 3D technology is a rebuttal saying that it won’t. It comes courtesy of an anonymous former Nintendo employee who is now developing games for his former employer’s next-generation console. Besdies trashing the 3D rumors, the ex-Nintendite reveals many features about the console. He–or she–says that the Revolution will have wireless, pressure-sensitive controllers that will add a new level of force feedback. “It will be sort of like controlling a game with one of those stress balls,” said the source. “You squeeze it and you go faster.” The source also said that the Revolution “will also include voice control more advanced than anything seen so far” and come with wireless headsets. He also said that the Revolution will come with an online service superior to Xbox Live–but totally free. “The only way I can describe it is as an internet service,” said the poster. “Imagine turning it on and checking your mail on the system. You see previews and demos of DS and Revolution games that you can download. A magazine similar to Nintendo Power will be exclusive to the system, and you will be able to access it on the Revolution’s homepage.” The source also said that besides Nintendo, which has at least seven next-gen titles in development, Capcom, Namco, EA, Sega, Zoonami, and Activision are all currently working on Revolution titles. However, the poster remained coy about what the exact “Revolution” would be. “I’m not going to tell you the revolutionary aspect of the system. Nintendo has some cool pre E3 plans for that.”
Bogus or not bogus?: Interesting? Most definitely. Bogus? We’ll see at E3.
May 7th, 2005 at 12:49 pm
System 1:
2.7 Ghz PowerPC G5 Processor
512 Megs total Ram (128 for video, 64 for sound)
600 Mhz graphics chip
System 2:
Dual 1.8 Ghz IBM G5 PowerPC processors
256 Megs DDR Main memory (64 dedicated to sound, using a 7.1 sound system at 196 Khz)
128 Megs GDDR3 Video memory
500 Mhz graphics chip (ATI developed, 16 Pixel Pipe, 220 Million transistors)
Shared Information:
Built in 15 Gigabyte harddrive
Blue-laser disk technology
Potential DVD playback
Case design philosophy more like the N64, less like the GameCube
This is all speculation. Every site that has information on the Revolution is gathering tidbits of information left behind by Nintendo and even rumors. And though it is all rumor, they do not list a heat pack. And notice also that every logical thing Aries has said has been leached off of information Brooke has leaked. About those games, if he doesn’t work for SNK or anyone else, how can he know what they’re working on? He claims to work for someone who works for Nintendo. On a serious note, why would a personal assistant or intern or anyone who “works for a developer” be given such dire blueprints?
May 7th, 2005 at 1:04 pm
Beelzebul,
I’ll believe you. The heat thing sounded ridiculous to me from the start.
- Is there anything else you can tell us?
- Are you confirming rumble for the NRev controller?
- Is it wireless, and wouldn’t rumble eat up power fast?
- How does it charge, lithium-ion like DS & GBASP or does it need batteries like wavebird?
- One of the guys on GAF claims Nintendo got their 3rd party support back in a big way for NRev and this will make up for the lack of first party games as the same thing that happened to DS will happen to NRev. Can you confirm?
May 7th, 2005 at 1:11 pm
Why do you keep thinking he’s a personal assistant? A developer isn’t a person, it’s a company. An art designer or a director or a producer or someone in marketing “works for a developer.” He never said he was a coffe fetching intern.

May 7th, 2005 at 2:04 pm
And is 256 GFLOPS what the CPU can do or the entire system? Nintendo advertized the GC to do 11 GFLOPS, but that was the entire system. The CPU was something like 3 GFLOPS.

Fools. You guys are all fools. There’s no one to trust out there at this point. The world is a dismal, sad, and horrible place, with horrible, sad, and dismal people who are both evil enough to type convincing lies onto blogs and good enough to tell the truth.
For all we really know, no one’s telling the truth. The Revolution could be something that isn’t like anything that Brooke, Aries, Third Question Mark, or Beelzebul said. We’ll have to wait. It is our only option.
Don’t believe anyone, no matter how much you want to. Never believe a single soul. None of you should. Not until after E3. Not until then. If… it really ever comes…
May 7th, 2005 at 5:13 pm
And do you think the Revolution will be for a niche market, as Bill Gates said?
I don’t think Sony and Microsoft should underestimate a company who has been in the business far longer than they have.
These people can say “OMG nintendo iz teh d00med” and it won’t really matter, Nintendo will still be around.
May 7th, 2005 at 5:30 pm
Beelzebul, you messed up. Aries didn’t say he worked for a company that worked for Nintendo. I don’t think you know what your talking about.

got a great girlfriend, been to E3 (going again next year), and the reason people argue over Nintendo right now is they have alot to prove. I think hardcore gamers are getting tired of what we’ve been force fed recently by the big companies churning out sequel after sequel, and if something comes along that brings something new to the market besides better graphics, we should all be very happy.
Personally, I don’t think the Revolution is going to be something gamers can see and touch as much as you all think. Something will change with the interface, that’s a given, but I feel the biggest change will be in the way games are made. Over the past few days of listening to publishers, developers, and some friends I have at other developers, I feel the revolution is going ot be something to help us developers bring you more unique games without the fear of blowing $10 million on a title. It will make development easier, meaning developers will be able to bring you new ideas, new worlds, new styles of gameplay without their publisher breaking a sweat over sales. It will finally mean games won’t have to seel 200,000 copies to just break even. And that is a great revolution for us, the people bringing you games.

On April 27th, 2005 at 6:10 am Aries Said:” In my opinion, StarCraft was the best RTS ever. This game is going to use some similar ideas. In most FPS, you play as a hero trying to save the day. In Retro’s game, they allow you to choose which storyline you want to play, just like StarCraft allows you to play as Terran, Zerg, etc. Biological weapons will play a major part in the game.”
Could the game he is refering to be star craft ghost? IGM seems to think that starcraft ghost has been moved up to the revolution http://cube.ign.com/articles/586/586993p1.html?fromint=1
and this is a quote right from the star craft web site at blizzard : “Revolutionary new style of gameplay featuring enhanced physical and psionic abilities”
and here’s another piece from IGN: [starcraft: ghost is a] stealth action game, set in the ground-breaking real-time strategy game’s universe. The story involves Ghost Nova, who is investigating a mysterious chemical known as Terrazine Gas. It is a powerful psychic reagent that has attracted attention from the Zerg, Protoss, and Terrans alike. StarCraft: Ghost is a tactical action game. The new approach, which now takes place in full third-person 3D and stars a super-sexy heroine as a ‘ghost operative,’ still involves futuristic alien battles involving the three warring races, but does so with a new emphasis on stealth and in-level combat. Nova uses her cloaking abilities and the latest Terran technology to outwit her enemies.
What could they mean by “tactical action game”
and is the biological weapons element that Aries spoke of the “Terrazine Gas”
This is all just speculation of course.

Paladin69 says: “I don’t think Sony and Microsoft should underestimate a company who has been in the business far longer than they have.”
i think sony respects nintendo alot more than they let on. in that IGN article about old Bill saying Nintendo is a niche player, Sony fires back at microsoft and says “We look at delivering a quantum leap in technology, not just Xbox version 1.5″. This spokeswoman just handed Bill’s ass to him on a silver platter
as for the increased third-party support, i think Iwata has alot to do with this. he himself owned GDC, and alot of developers out there love him, cos he himself was also a developer, so he knows what they want. Which company would you rather back: one thats headed by a geek, one that’s headed by a marketer or one that’s headed by your own kind?

Still, as a developer, you aren’t making the big decisions. It is up to the publisher, license holders, and the big ol fat CEOs and bosses what happens.
Remember, the developers have higher ups as well.
May 7th, 2005 at 7:22 pm
Why do you keep thinking he’s a personal assistant? A developer isn’t a person, it’s a company. An art designer or a director or a producer or someone in marketing “works for a developer.” He never said he was a coffe fetching intern.
This I know. But to work for a developer? What does that tell you? It says that he must be an intern. Why would an intern be given such vital information? And have you been reading his posts? He is inconsisent. At first, he says it will sport a directional pad and buttons, but then forgets and says there will be no directional pad.
Beelzebul, you messed up. Aries didn’t say he worked for a company that worked for Nintendo. I don’t think you know what your talking about.
That’s what a developer is. They make games for a larger scale company. (Or more, if they feel it.)
- Is there anything else you can tell us?
- Are you confirming rumble for the NRev controller?
- Is it wireless, and wouldn’t rumble eat up power fast?
- How does it charge, lithium-ion like DS & GBASP or does it need batteries like wavebird?
- One of the guys on GAF claims Nintendo got their 3rd party support back in a big way for NRev and this will make up for the lack of first party games as the same thing that happened to DS will happen to NRev. Can you confirm?
- Well, it should be less powerful than the Xbox 360. I know nothing of launch titles or if it will be less or more powerful than the PS3.
- It is wireless. And yes, rumble will eat up power fast. Just as on the DS: keeping the lights on too long will use up more and more power.
- It uses wavebird and has a channel changer for the wavebird.
– I don’t know. I don’t see that as possible. Think about it. If Nintendo relly rallied up third parties for the Revolution, I’ sure from 2001 to now, those third parties would have helped Nintendo to mae a comback. I doubt very much Nintendo was able to rally so many to change it’s current status.

May 8th, 2005 at 12:43 am
Moteh: I understand that - what I said was in context to Beelzebul’s statements. My bad for not being clear. Beelzebul seems to think that Aries saying he “works for a developer” means he’s an intern/some individuals personal assistant. You yourself just said you work for a developer… Does that translate somehow to you being an intern or personal assistant? Not even in the vaguest way. You say you work for a developer, and you yourself are a developer. Not an intern.
Like I said, I said it in a certain context and left it a little too wide open. I’ve never known anyone to say “I work for a developer” and mean an individual at a company. By my experience, when someone says developer, they refer to the company themselves. All in context.

May 8th, 2005 at 3:19 am
Beelzebul is a faker obviously. He talks all this crap and you guys go like ‘yes that’s pretty weird indeed!’
Still think Aries is the real deal in one way or another.
May 8th, 2005 at 4:41 am
“A developer isn’t a person, it’s a company. An art designer or a director or a producer or someone in marketing “works for a developer.”
That isn’t true. The artist and producer are apart of development, they don’t work for development. As for someone in marketing, that’s a publisher. And they don’t work for development: They work alongside development. If anything, development works for publishing. And if you work for a development team, I see that as being a donut boy or an intern.
May 8th, 2005 at 5:23 am
Will the Nintendo RS use HD DVD, DVD, HD DVD mini, or DVD mini?
-I guess Beelzebul is ignoring my question because its not negative enough. You want to know the difference between you and Aries. He never tried to prove anything. You are trying to prove yourself. Maybe your a Donut boy.

Damn Beelzebul is a complete liar. At least Aries was able to sound more convincing. E3 is literally days away, how about we all just wait till then.
May 8th, 2005 at 6:05 am
I know, really dalexc. Everyone, just wait until E3. It will clear up the liars from the truth tellers, it should clear up everything. It is 9/8 days away. Not very long. Just wait.
May 8th, 2005 at 6:32 am
OMG. bezzelbub shut the fuck up. god!
May 8th, 2005 at 7:35 am
People this is getting way out of hand. I will now stop giving you any information, as I believe I have told enough. What you people must do know is absolutely nothing. Meaning you must wait. You must wait till E3, where you can determine for yourself, wether I’m fake or not.
May 8th, 2005 at 7:40 am
one last thing as i have not had a wink of sleep due to this foum thats so cool it blows my mind! all pre orders of revoultion comes with a years supply of cocaine yes! you can get high and play games! cool dudes!
May 8th, 2005 at 8:00 am
Okay, I was up til 2 last night reading all of this, and while what Aries says could very well put Nintendo back on top where it belongs, there’s one thing that bothers me. Why would Nintendo make the online thing free? Wouldn’t they be losing a lot of money on that? But I mean, I’m sure they could afford it, but the only way they’ll make money off of the Revolution is by system sales and game sales. One thing Nintendo DOES need to do though is aim for an older audience and get back some of the 3rd party support.
And Aries, I hope you’re right about all of this. You’ve given us Nintendo fans a glimmer of hope.

Can’t wait for the E3!

We all know the Nintendo Rev will have an automatic turd machine attached to it for extra space and will resemble the shape of a wild asparagus. It uses 4 wheel drive to get extra grip in landscapes around the floor in the direction you want to go in and will double as a public toilet for hard core gaming sessions.
May 8th, 2005 at 9:08 am
Will the Nintendo RS use HD DVD, DVD, HD DVD mini, or DVD mini?
-I guess Beelzebul is ignoring my question because its not negative enough. You want to know the difference between you and Aries. He never tried to prove anything. You are trying to prove yourself. Maybe your a Donut boy.
I’m sorry. I missed that one. Well the Revolution will use the same “mini DVD” the Gamecube used. And it’s rather irritatibg when you’re trying to tell people something and they simply won’t believe you, although they have no reason not to believe you.
May 8th, 2005 at 9:09 am
“OMG. bezzelbub shut the fuck up. god! ”
No.

Ok guys, I’m fake. Most of you know already and some of you actually believed me. Noobs. No matter what I’m going to say next, keep in mind that it’s FAKE.
Oh btw the specs of the revo are also fake.
May 8th, 2005 at 9:27 am
Oh.
May 8th, 2005 at 9:52 am
Perhaps the biggest reason on why I ever believed Aries is because he has said, time and time again, “Just wait until E3. Then you’ll be reading everything I’ve been saying on your screen.” You have to be one awkward liar to say something like that and lie. Which makes me believe him for that. However, there’s other things that I have a hard time believing… like how he’d know so much stuff.
May 8th, 2005 at 10:14 am
Another thing that makes me want to believe Aries is how he said that he would be extremely and horribly dissapointed if someone told him that at E3 2004, there’d be a realistic Zelda, and there actually wasn’t.
But as said before, I’m not believing him, no matter how much I want to. I will believe Aries if and only if what he has said comes true on Tuesday, May 17th, 2005.
May 8th, 2005 at 10:58 am
There is one thing that makes me beleive Aries a little. If he was a liar, he would have been back this week-end, no doubt. And I don’t think he would have suspended his awnsers for one week. Unless Aries i as very experienced liar.

Matt, if you ever read this; you do well trying to cover the truth, but I only revealed minimal information. I do not feel that I am spoiling anything. On anther line: I must say I am really disapointed of the behaviors alot of people on this blog showed after Matt anouncement. I tought I was very objective when I mentionned it; you will all know the truth at E3. Do not take away someone’s credibility before it definitly proved that he is lying. I’ve seen that my good intentions turned out to be very problematic. I will probably awnser few questions on the following two days but no more. On this I say it again; you will have to wait untill E3 to really know the truth. ”

These are the last two posts by who seems to be the real Aries. I question the second post, but I’m pretty sure the first is the real one…

Nintendo President Iwata further discussed the realities of the DS wireless initiative, Gamasutra reports. At the press conference he also revealed that, indeed, the next-generation console will utilize a wireless link-up to connect to the DS. From the article: “One
particularly interesting piece of news is that, though Nintendo will
not charge for the new online service, other publishers will be able to
with relation to particular software titles - an option that is likely
to please third-party publishers who may want to launch more complex
online-capable RPG games or other information-retrieval services and
then charge a monthly fee for them. Iwata makes it clear that any
charges will be obviously signposted, however.”

So Aries was right about the DS connecting to the REV and that online play will be free. So far he is 2 for 2 guys.
May 10th, 2005 at 6:58 am
Well i have finally look through all of this blog and i have a few things to say. Aries actually seems like the least likely to be lying. the concept of 3d steroescopics is unlikely BUt if have heard about the claims made by george lucas and that company that managed to make things 3d without the glasses it could be possible. nintendo WILL sink if they don’t get enough 3rd party support. I actually suspect that you might end up usuing dual broadway processors and the ati graphics card, hollywood should give some kick ass graphics. As for the controller
May 10th, 2005 at 7:16 am

May 10th, 2005 at 12:41 pm
Aries is 2 for 2? Who didn’t assume that the DS wouldn’t be able to link to the Revolution? And who didn’t assume the Revolution would be backwards compatible? As I’ve said, everything logical that Aries has said has been leeched off of Brooke. Whatever he decided to make up on his own is beyond human achievment or just plain stupid.
May 10th, 2005 at 12:48 pm
He said NINTENDO WOULD SIGN A DEAL WITH IGN. ANd guess what, they just did today. There are rumors about rev not being shown at E3, but thats just speculation. The IGN thing happened
May 10th, 2005 at 12:55 pm
WHAT IS THE DEAL REGARDING? TELL US!!
May 10th, 2005 at 1:07 pm
IGN and Nintendo have a deal to create a portable gaming network. Do you know what IGN is? IGN is not just a gaming site. IGN Entertainment is a leading provider of technology for online game play in video games. They provide game developers and publishers with time-saving, cost-effective solutions - from matchmaking, community, administrative and networking functionality to consulting and beta testing services. Their proven ANSI-C software development kits (SDKs) are used by Activision, Atari, Codemasters, DICE, Electronic Arts, Take Two Interactive, THQ, Vivendi Universal Games and hundreds of developers. That piece of info is from IGN itself. Have you ever seen a game powered by GameSpy? Like Tony Hawk’s Underground 2? GameSpy is one of IGN’s branches. I have been reading Aries’ posts for credibility, and I do not recall that one. And if he did say that, my guess is that he is more intelligent than I thougt he’d be. Not many people know IGN is more than a website. Still, I guarantee you there will be no heat pack and that no one knows anything of any Revolution Pikmin releases.
May 10th, 2005 at 1:22 pm
Just wait until E3: The Revolution will not be spherical or any nonsense like that. It wil be a white system that looks simialar to a DVD player. The controllers will have no directional pad, gyroscopes, a microphone, A, B, X, Y, and Z buttons, and pressure sensitive handles. You will see. Although it will not be over at E3. A lot of people with no lives will probably just say things like “Hi, I’m Beelzebul! Who wants to be my friend? I have no friends ya know.” Or something far more graphic and obsurd than that. The fact is, I do have friends and a life. Me coming on this blog once every two days proves nothing. As a matter of fact, you waiting for me to post and write something stupid and immature tells me that you have no life and that you are on this website most of the day, refreshing it and just waiting to SPAM it up. None of you know me and you cannot know if I am lying, because you know nothing about the Nintendo Revolution. Any logical being, however, can depict that Aries is lying based on his nonsensical ideas of a heat pack in a game controller when hey are not even safe in back massagers.
May 10th, 2005 at 1:24 pm
“Huh. Miny DVD… i doubt it. highly. ”
What is the GameCube disc? It is labeled as a mini DVD. Just you wait. Soon enough, you’ll find that, contrary to popular belief, the Revolution is in fact backwards compatible with the GameCube. It will use the same format disc: the mini DVD.

Am I the only 1 who realizes that beetelbul make 200% more sense then Ares? I always thought a heat pak would be stupid. My brother burned his back using my dad’s back massager. No bull shit. Theres gray scales where his back hauir used to be. I wouldnt exacly want my hands to suffer 3rd degree burns. And, Aries, did at first say there would be a dpad and then change his mind… Im no ones fanboi, but im just recalling the facts. Not to say aries is real, but he sounds more credible than ares. and why would ares know so much about game releases if he just works for nintendo? Beezelbul said to think about it, and I really did. It just doesn’t add up. that’s where ares really stopped makinbg me believe him.
May 10th, 2005 at 1:52 pm

A gamecube disc is not nearly enough capacity for a next gen title. Nintendo is not stupid. They know they missed out on tons of 3rd party titles because of small disk capacity. REV disks do not have to be the same size as GC in order to be backward compatible. Remember the Panasonic Q? One laser reads both DVD and GC disks. The only way the REV uses disks like GC is if they figured out a way to fit way way more data on them, in which case it would be more like a mini HD-DVD. If the REV games end up holding less than 3 gb of space like GC games do, the whole damn show floor will F’n RIOT.
May 10th, 2005 at 3:06 pm
BTW it is not unsafe to include heat feedback in a controller, it is simply unpractical regarding battery life if in fact they are wireless. Do not think for a second it is impossible. No one ever said it was going to be so hot it would burn you. Aries said only warmth, not scalding temperatures. Besides, the pressure grips will no doubt be rubber if u squeeze them, so what do u think was gonna heat up? the plastic? no way………….rubber my friend.
This doesn’t mean it is absolutely gonna be included, but it is not far fetched.

nigga stop lyin
May 10th, 2005 at 4:26 pm
Before I go on, I must admit that loved all of his revo hype. I also belived him for quite a while. But after a while, I realized something.
Aries must be making this all up. Almost everything he has said makes perfect sense. He is really intelligent, but there is one thing he hasn’t thought of when making this all up.
Ok, here it goes: One of the first things he mentioned about the revolution was the highly advanced voice recognition feautre that was “like nothing seen before!”. He said that it would blow us all away! He even said that this was the thing that he was most excited about with the Revolution. + His game was using this feautre.
If he hadn’t gone off about how amazing this voice recognition thing was, I would have belived him.
Because a statement by Iwata at GDC proves that the “amazingly advanced voice recognition feautre” cannot be real. Here is an exact quote from what he said:
“It certainly makes a game better to have voice commands, because it can alter how the game is played. But the fact of the matter is, to realize voice commands; all you have to do is install a microphone. We realize a few of our competitors are already thinking of following us on this, so it will not be a defining feature of the new console. We may or may not use the microphone in the new [Nintendo Revolution] interface. ”
There is no way Aries can be right about the advanced voice recognition feautre when Iwata said “to realize voice commands; all you have to do is install a microphone” and “We may or may not use the microphone in the new [Nintendo Revolution] interface” at GDC. If he had said it 6 months ago, then maybe Aries could have been right. But not when he said it at GDC. The time gap between GDC and april 28th is simply to short for both nintendo making this advanced feautre AND aries and studio being able to work with it the way he describes.
Since This thing has been such a big part of what he has written, I now don’t belive anything of what he has said.
May 10th, 2005 at 4:54 pm
Okay guys, I don’t really post in this blog because of all its spam and idiots and all of that, but I thought I’d post I couple of tidbits that came up today. Both of these come from IGN.
ITEM 1
Topic: Revolution using 1T-SRAM
Source: http://cube.ign.com/articles/611/611577p1.html
“Memory maker MoSys Inc. today announced its first quarter 2005 earnings. In a live conference call with investors and media the company’s CEO and chief financial officer Mark Voll stated that MoSys would once again be supplying an embedded 1T-SRAM solution for Nintendo’s forthcoming console, codenamed Revolution. He also revealed for the first time a general target ship date for the still top-secret next-generation platform.”
and the release date….
“We are excited to be a participating member of the Nintendo team once again as Nintendo will roll out its successor game console to the GameCube in mid-2006. ”
So pretty much, anyone trying to post anything different about the system’s RAM on this blog is undoubtedly fake.
ITEM 2
Topic: Revolution showing at E3
Source: http://cube.ign.com/articles/611/611660p1.html
“May 10, 2005 - The rumor that Nintendo will not reveal the successor to the GameCube, codenamed Revolution, at E3 2005 has been circulating for some time now, putting the gaming public in a tizzy over the looming disappointment. Here’s the real deal: Nintendo sources have confirmed Revolution’s presence at the show. The company may decide to reveal the system’s official name, technical specs and even the system itself. The controller, however, will probably not be shown. It may not be the system “launch pad” gamers hoped for, but to count the Revolution as a no-show is inaccurate. ”
They go on to mention that Nintendo will be focussing on their handhelds and online plans this year, as well as an update to the GBA, rumoured to have built-in play-yan capabilities and whatnot.
I don’t know if this Aries guy is fake or not, but this article kind of makes him seem more credible. Didn’t he say some time ago that Nintendo would unveil all that stuff but not the controller?
Just thought I’d let you guys know for anyone still lurking around this blog.
May 10th, 2005 at 4:54 pm
exactly, i totally forgot about that, i was so entranced by this bastard aries lies. good work. FUCK YOU ARIES
May 10th, 2005 at 9:25 pm
Yet Nintendo is known for also lying their asses off before E3 to totally side swipe everyone.
May 10th, 2005 at 9:59 pm
What’s up with all this Revolution talk going on (or should I say constant, supportless rambling?), honestly, I just want to play the new Zelda. Few can disagree that the videos of it look amazing and if it’s based on a modified WW engine, the gameplay should be great. Anyways, I’m a pretty big Nintendo fan and all but whats up with all these people totally hyping up a system that barely anyone knows anything about? I understand specualtion and all but It’s like raising the bar to a level which is, for the most part, very unrealistic (at least at this time). 3D projection? I mean seriously think about it, how could you even consider Nintendo including this in the system without it costing high dollars? I mean anything’s possible but I think people should stop getting their hopes up about stuff like this. I think that this same thing happened with the N64 years ago, people getting hyped up about a system that in the end never really put out that great software (yes there were some very excellent titles but not enough to compare it to Nintendo’s past systems). Granted, back then Nintendo was THE prime player and had they made better decisions about regarding their software, they probably would have the #1 spot right now. Gamecube is definately my favorite system of this generation and a big step up from N64 IMO, but the way it lacks 3rd support is really just sad… Really, I just hope Revolution puts Nintendo back in the position it had in its glory days for the NES and SNES. This probably sounds even more unrealistic then 3d projection to many, but I just don’t want to be playing Virtual Boy 2 in another two years. E3 should be interesting this year but I really just can’t wait for that damn Zelda game….
May 10th, 2005 at 10:06 pm
3d projection = almost certain lie
May 10th, 2005 at 10:14 pm
Anyone check ign today. They are reporting that the big N may show some of the Rev after all. Which disproves what they said earlier. There’s also news that it will come out mid 2006 according to those supplying one of the parts.
This potentially gives life to Aries’s “The Game” theory being that the rev may be close to release by E3 2006. The shock and awe could start a year before it comes out. The stage is pottentially set for mr cassimausina to be proven more wrong then ever before.
But mabey not
May 10th, 2005 at 10:36 pm
Well i am sure that a whole lot of people are going to be shocked this E3 and i am also sure thatt the next generation will hjave the firces battles yet
May 10th, 2005 at 11:01 pm
I definately think that E3 this year will be a MAJOR event and also the starting point for the next generation console wars… I think Nintendo should do more than just show what kind of graphics their new console is capable of (a la the Super Mario 128 & Zelda Spaceworld 2000 demos). I mean it’s one thing to captivate an audience and its another to make them piss their pants (I’m obviously hoping for this).
May 11th, 2005 at 1:49 am
“There is no way Aries can be right about the advanced voice recognition feautre when Iwata said “to realize voice commands; all you have to do is install a microphone” and “We may or may not use the microphone in the new [Nintendo Revolution] interface” at GDC.”
———————————————
That doesn’t prove anything. Iwata’s right; all you have to do is install a microphone. The advanced voice recognition would be utilized via software and/or console hardware. Plus, he said that voice recognition wouldn’t be a defining feature, and from Aries said, it wouldn’t be - it’d simply be a Revolution feature.
Not that I’m totally supporting Aries, but the above claim doesn’t prove anything.
Also! Just because the Revolution will be backwards compatable with GameCube games in no way means that the Revolution will make use of mini DVD’s. Have you ever looked at the disc tray for your DVD player? Notice the smaller indent in the middle of the tray? That’s for mini DVD’s. It’s entirely possible to fit both sized discs into one tray.
May 11th, 2005 at 5:03 am
I swear when my computer tries to read the gamecube disc it thinks its an audio CDF while it reads the PS2 folders. weird but then again i can still make ISO’s of the gamecube discs.
May 11th, 2005 at 5:12 am
btw aries do you work with Capcom or infact team sonic?
May 11th, 2005 at 6:34 am
Been looking at aries posts about how the revolution will be online and you know what? it all makes sense to me. Why else would nintendo have done a deal with gamespy arcade apart from to link up the Ds and Rev. to the internet. I kinda think he sounds quite legit but we wont know for another 8 days. !O! i can’t wait for E3 though. But there is only one problem, I’M IN ENGLAND AND SO HAVE TO WAIT FOR YOU GUYS TO WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
May 11th, 2005 at 6:48 am
The fact still remains that no one can disprove or confirm anything that Aries has said, though a few things have already come true. If any of you are registered at Nintendo.com you recieved an email survey last night that reveals some potential online titles that Aries mentioned……..ie Super Smash Bros…….and others.
May 11th, 2005 at 6:59 am
it looks like square-enix could support revolution or at least the ds with an online game. interesting…
May 11th, 2005 at 7:03 am
you wanna know where aries works at? he works at a fuckin bank
May 11th, 2005 at 7:16 am
Bill Gates u are an asshole, on topic this E3 is gonna b e big one regardless if these rumours are true or false.
May 11th, 2005 at 7:50 am
The real Bill Gates is an asshole too. He seems to think that Nintendo is no longer a competitor to them………..meanwhile Sony says Microsoft’s new system is not gonna match up to REV or PS3. Like it or not, Microsoft has made XBOX Longhorn, not 360…………different shell, nothing new. They are gonna get shrugged out of E3 even though the hardware will be on hand and playable. The lines will be longer for Zelda than their next gen BS
May 11th, 2005 at 8:07 am
omg! aries prophecy has come true!! oh please. everything that has “come true” so far was pretty damn obvious. My grandma couldve told me that revo/ds would go online
May 11th, 2005 at 8:12 am
what else does grammy say? because the things that are not obvious are not gonna leak out. you gotta wait

Big news over on the IGN Gamecube board………
Posted by Mutsu…..
“http://www.watch.impress.co.jp/game/docs/20050511/s_e.ht m (Japanese)
Seems like Nintendo has got Square-Enix in the full backing for both the Nintendo DS and Revolution on their WiFi service.
Apparently, President Wada particularly liked Nintendo’s idea of connecting people together “seamlessly”.
I don’t have a full translation of the article, but this is good news nonetheless.”
Didn’t Aries say that there would be a Square-Enix RPG???
Put up another one of Aries prophecies that is starting to become true!!!
May 11th, 2005 at 10:16 am
It better be turn based and not involve any stupid card decks. A real final fantasy game would be nice, maybe a remake of 2 (US number 2) or 8.
May 11th, 2005 at 11:45 am
Yu know if Squenix come out with any opening game for the revolution it should be Super Mario RPG 2. Idealy if it launched with the system or at least comes out in 2006 then it would coincide with the 10th aniversery of the original which came out in may of 96 I believe.
May 11th, 2005 at 12:25 pm
Good call Ice dude. I’m just happy to have Square-Enix on board. Gimme some FF DS love! Remember the game enix made for the SNES launch? Actraiser? What a great action/rpg that was………wouldn’t it be great to get a new one? Flying around as the angel and causing natural disasters and sealing layers was sweet!
May 11th, 2005 at 12:59 pm
I personally would like a remake of ff7 im not really a ff fan the only rpg i like is zelda, but that would get the sales as well as putting nintendo back on the map where they deserve.
What you lot have to understand that if this aries guy is fact (which i always wanted to and am now starting to believe) and this comes true then nintendo will win some japanese playstation players thus giving them support from major 3rd parties.
That is the reason nintendo has failed last 2 consoles (n64/cube) to some of us nintendo fans yes they are quality systems (even though the best is yet to come on cube LoZ :D) but third party games attract new customers and keep feeding money into the console as well as the corporation.
May 11th, 2005 at 1:29 pm
Interesting… According to IGN, Famitsu is going to reveal a new Hideo Kojima game in their next issue(which comes out 5/20, so it could be revealed at E3). Didn’t Aries say Hideo Kojima was developing a new game for the Revolution? Interesting…
May 11th, 2005 at 1:36 pm
We can only hope and pray dude

This’ll be the time to judge him
May 11th, 2005 at 5:20 pm
Aries, where art thou?
May 11th, 2005 at 5:38 pm
Heheh, I just KNEW Aries was for real.
May 11th, 2005 at 6:04 pm
Im going to tell the truth. All the truth. Aries is a 46 years old pedophile living in Oklahoma. After being found guilty for severe sexual abusement on a 4 year old boy, he was sent to jail for 8 years. There he started thinking about the revolution and what “features” would make it better. I mean, man c’mon. Anybody can know that the heat thing is for sexual ends. After finishing prison and lost one testicul during those 8 perrillous years, he was recruited in the girl scout. He would sell cookies and sometimes offered some cake. Few years later he was a excrement and urine cleaner in Taiwan. That is when he found this blog. He just knew this was the chance, for a testiculless, pedophile, scout to proove that even he can change the world. It was the beggining of a long journey. Sometimes he goes clean some “accident” in some developer’s bathroom. Remember when he said there is many ways to work for a developer? There you go. All this to resume the unbeleivable but true story of Aries.
Aries keep up. We’re all with you. Someday you’ll grow a testicul back.
May 11th, 2005 at 6:28 pm
Aries, is the revolutionary part ROB, a superadvanced one, that will anything you ask?

thats “testicle”, idiot
May 11th, 2005 at 7:18 pm
So far, it seems Aries is all right. I mean, the Kojima thing makes it seem like a big secret, so I actually believe hes rly working with ninty. And the Square Enix thing now.
May 11th, 2005 at 10:42 pm
Yep the more time goes on the longe it seems like Aries is for real. NIntendo better get their act together though and buy 3rd party support. It wopuld be nice to see at least some new developers if not publishers. And willl nintendo ever get rare back? Be cause rare make decent games but i very much doubt how well they will do with Xbox since a lot of rare split to become free radical when goldeneye was made. thats why I can’t wait for timesplitters 4. PS Timesplitters 2 is better than 3 in my eyes. EA ruined it.
May 11th, 2005 at 11:27 pm
I believe in you Aries. Even if your info does not turn out to be 100% accurate, you’ve definitely shed some light on a pretty dark and speculatrory corner of our curious minds. Gamespot.com has confirmed some of your predictions and other well known reporting sites. Keep the info coming and don’t let the haters totally frustrate your efforts. This may sound like a stupid question but, I am an X Box owner. I converted once I learned the GameCube would not be able to compete in the graphics department. I’ve been satisfied with the system since purchase but I’m curious…..how will the XBox 360 stack up to the Rev?
Please, be gentle with your responses….I get defensive easily.
May 12th, 2005 at 4:39 am
For a concerter i have to say well done for not bexcoming some stupid fan boy who just tries to muck up these sort blogs. Anyway i have a feeling that that the gaphics may be pretty close. Afterall ATI do make decent graphics and i am sure Hollywood will be damn good.
May 12th, 2005 at 5:21 am
I still Aries is the real deal, but I don’t see how his “predictions” were common sense. I mean, how many of predicted what the Revolution is going to be about after Brooke posted his blog? It may seem like common sense, but isn’t that true with everything in life? Finding out what the answer is after the question?
And didn’t Aries say that he highly doubted that Brooke, a supposed insider, would have screen shots of Revolution games? Well Brooke hasn’t posted any screen shots yet.

The Revolution will feature HD support.
The Revolution will recieve the next Zelda in 2008.
Zelda will have online support.
The Revolution will give every game online support, much like the 360.
The Revolution will surpass 360 in features.
Sony’s PS3 online features will be extremely similar to Revolution’s.
May 12th, 2005 at 8:34 am
What a bunch of BS that guy just laid down. REV will not be 3d unless some game decides it wants to be……….if u have been to IGN lately you would see that all the fuss was about Sly Cooper 3…….which uses 3d glasses.
May 12th, 2005 at 8:39 am
You should be able to see with your own eyes that Revolution is about increased accessibility and playablity……….not stupid gimmicks. Do you think they are recieving 3rd party praise and concentrating on online gaming because of a 3d gimmick? No. Please return to Party Poker where you came from.
May 12th, 2005 at 8:44 am
BTW there is no reason for PS3 to support Itunes when the PSP can play music from a memory stick. Sony is not going to give itself more competition. How stupid would that be?
May 12th, 2005 at 8:53 am

it is possible. think of it as you download itunes a dn mp3 to your ps3, then tranfering the music you want to liten to on the go. to you psp wirlessly. not abad idea.
May 12th, 2005 at 9:04 am
And why not have itunes? PSP is not in competition with the ipod, so why not? As for 3-D glasses, some of the games will feature it at launch, not the whole crop
May 12th, 2005 at 10:14 am
Well if you end up being right, then I commend you, but I’d rather see features that improve games, not access to mp3’s. There comes a point where so many multimedia functions become too much. Everyone is trying to make a console too much like a PC……..your PC is for media……your console is for games.

If this is true no more metal gear for the station and for me makes no sense for sony to get bioware.
May 12th, 2005 at 11:25 am
Im pretty sure Square-Enix and Konami are not for sale, man. That would cost way way more than Rockstar or Bioware. Besides KOTOR sucked.
If you were nintendo, wouldn’t you want Capcom before Konami anyway? Nintendo makes deals with companies that big. They dont buy them. MS is the one who is liable to buy up studios but I doubt Rockstar is for sale either……..they will make way too much cash going multiplatform to give that up.
May 12th, 2005 at 11:37 am
Why should Sony work with Apple to feature their iTunes-Service when they have CONNECT? Doesn´t make any sense to me!

Rockstar is owned by take-two, which is one of the biggest publishers out tehre. ninty wouldnt have enough to buy it
May 12th, 2005 at 12:10 pm
Hmmm… things seem to be adding up. A new Kojima game that he is directing? Check. Square Enix wanting to give support to the Revolution? Check. If Aries has told the truth, at E3 they’d spill the beans and have it that Kojima is working with Aunoma (sp?) on a Ninja Gaiden/Zelda/[possibly even MGS-like] game for the Revolution, and SE has a Rev. game for the system’s launch. We can only wait. But maybe something else will be shown tonight that Aries has said of the Xbox 360… then again he hasn’t said much, though if they do reveal any info. on Perfect Dark 0 that goes hand in hand with anything Aries has been saying, well… Let’s just hope none of this is purely coincidental.
May 12th, 2005 at 12:20 pm
Its easy to see that MS is banking completely on the graphical power of their system to sell it………The controller is nearly identical to the original and the system seems to offer nothing new (except that little camera thingy) so if it ends up not being the most powerful, they could have problems, in which case they are gonna have to buy exclusive titles like crazy.
May 12th, 2005 at 12:28 pm
Aries is a speaking sock.
May 12th, 2005 at 12:28 pm
If xbox don’t have the power they will have A DAMN LOT of invertsters in the Xbox will pull out. and i don’t blame them.
May 12th, 2005 at 12:29 pm
Aries appears to be right about alot of things
May 12th, 2005 at 12:38 pm
I see that Gamespot is excited about Nintendo’s E3 press conference… this was taken from their Pre-E3 thing.
“Nintendo’s press conference will be broadcast live.”
while Sony and Microsoft’s will be shown later that day. Sounds like SOMEONE is expecting something huge.
Man I’m getting excited…
May 12th, 2005 at 12:46 pm
Everyone expecting sumthing speial. E3 is going to be closely watched this year. I reckon that nintendo are going to unveil the revolution in such a way that people will literally shit their pants. I am just hoping there is no 3D gimmicks. BUt i would love backwards compatibilty.
May 12th, 2005 at 12:53 pm
ONLY 3 MORE FUCKING DAYS TILL WE KNOW HOLY FUCK IM GONNA SPERM!!!
ewww, its all over the keyboard:(
May 12th, 2005 at 2:08 pm
“Huh. Miny DVD… i doubt it. highly. ”
What is the GameCube disc? It is labeled as a mini DVD. Just you wait. Soon enough, you’ll find that, contrary to popular belief, the Revolution is in fact backwards compatible with the GameCube. It will use the same format disc: the mini DVD.”
You must be retarded. Because this was a dumb thing to say.
May 12th, 2005 at 2:48 pm
Nintendo will not use mini-disks again. They dont have enough memory for next gen video games. Aries says that the format is also a part of the revolutionary format.
May 12th, 2005 at 3:05 pm
“ONLY 3 MORE FUCKING DAYS TILL WE KNOW HOLY FUCK IM GONNA SPERM!!!

ARIES IS A FAKE. The Proof!!!
Stop acting like Aries is a insider, he is just a fanboy, a very inteligent fanboy with good imagination. He made some mistakes though.
One major mistake that i could remember was about the new Zelda.
Aries wrote:
“The new Zelda is very interesting. Nintendo still hasn’t even decided on whether this one follows the Wind Waker or precedes Ocarina of Time. That’s one of the reasons that there isn’t a title right now”
This is just ridicule. Last year E3, Aonuma said that Nintendo had a solid story behind the new zelda and that the new game will follow the Wind Waker. Just check his interviews and see it for yourself. ”
I would like to say right now that you are a dumbass and by trying to prove he is fake you are proving him right. If you read the latest issue of EGM with Zelda as the title story, you will fin this on the first page.
“EGM: Where does this zelda fall in on the overall series timeline” “Aonuma: I can’t really go into that, partially because I want to keep it a secret, but also because we haven’t decided yet.”
This helps prove he is real since he revealed this before this issue came out, once again what he says has come true.
May 12th, 2005 at 5:26 pm
Oh shit
May 12th, 2005 at 6:59 pm
Did anyone see the XBOX 360 debut on MTV? It was very unimpressive and Perfect Dark Zero was disappointing so far in my opinion. They are in prime position for an E3 embarrassment if they don’t deliver something better.
May 12th, 2005 at 7:20 pm
I don’t have MTV. How was the XBox unimpressive?
May 12th, 2005 at 9:06 pm
I honestly don’t think MS will survive this console war. I mean they have the whole time advantage thing but I just can’t see them accomplishing much without launching the system w/o ther most familar flagship title (Halo). I mean Nintendo did that last time w./ the cube but at least they had SSBM come out a month after the system was released, IMO MS is doing a REALLY foolish thing by releasing the XBox 360 w/o Halo 3 at launch. By the time Halo 3 is released most people will have allready been sucked into the PS3/Rev hype (well definately the PS3 hype…). XBox’s main attributes which let it stand out from the other 2 systems this gen was its superior graphics, built in HD, and Halo. It seems like graphically at least its gonna be lagging behind the rest and w/o a Halo @ launch or even backward compatibality it just seems like MS is shooting itself in the foot…. However, anything is possible and XBox 360 could (somehow) come out on top but I highly doubt that…
May 12th, 2005 at 9:57 pm
The Xbox is looking very weak. Because they are coming out the earliest they have the unfortuanate ptroblem of the fact that nintendo and PS3 can up their graphics just a bit. And by the way maybe the rev will use DVD’s and mini DVD’s after all it can be done by dvd players.
May 12th, 2005 at 10:21 pm
Ghost Recon 3 for X-Box 360 looks actually pretty good. I thought that looked better then the whole bunch of xbox titles. I just seen screen shots of Perfect Dark and the graphics don’t look clean and more realistic as in Ghost Recon 3. Ghost Recon 3 actually had me going, but when I saw Perfect Dark (hopefuly it’s early videos will be better by the release date) the graphics looked so so. I do wish Nintendo kept Rare because Nintendo would have made it alot better, when I seen Perfect Dark from microsoft it looks like Halo. I seen one screenshot for Perfect Dark those good guy soilders are driving vehicles like in Halo, and shooting the bad guys from the vehicle. But it’s still too early too tell and it could improve when launched.
On another note, IGN has said that Revo’s width is going to be the size of three DVD cases flatly stacked on each other, and will stand horizontally.
May 12th, 2005 at 10:46 pm
Fuckin hell thats quite small and at least it’s not like the purple lunch box (the black lunch box wasn’t so bad
) So it quite obviously plugs into the back of your TV. This means that we have got a less chance of having a 3D gimmick. Hooray. I am looking forward to a revo that has an analog stick along with the giro and no bloody touch screen. After all who really wants to look away from the game screen because then your in the world not the game.
May 12th, 2005 at 10:49 pm
good IGN news:
Although Nintendo has historically selected proprietary media formats, such as the GameCube Optical Disc, for its platforms, the publisher is with Revolution opting for a more standardized medium. The new console will play standard DVD media, according to the company. Nintendo has not yet revealed if Revolution will as a result be able to play Hollywood movies on DVD, but that seems very likely at this point.
we have our DVD player

Wow, great deductions there, Detective Beelzebul. However, if you look here:
http://cube.ign.com/articles/613/613340p1.html
You’ll find that Nintendo’s officially revealed that the Revolution will play standard DVDs, as well as have a “sleek” outer exterior, as mentioned above by Nintendo Revolution.
If you’re going to pretend you know stuff about an upcoming console, at least make sure you can actually deduce logic: Standard DVD trays have a slot for mini-DVD’s.
Please, no more random postings of people who think they know what’s going on. E3’s only a couple days away.
May 12th, 2005 at 10:55 pm
…Yeah, what Firemaker said. :p
May 12th, 2005 at 10:57 pm
I think it’s a typo on IGN’s part… where would the DVD sized disc go (which IGN also confirmed)? It’s the height of 3 DVD cases stacked, not the width.
May 12th, 2005 at 10:59 pm
wow… sorry for repeating…posts were made while I typed
May 13th, 2005 at 4:17 am

May 13th, 2005 at 4:45 am
i just hope that in that hideo kojima?! game u play as the cyborg from metal gear a new one in production and he goes crazy and its like devil may cry, give it a metal gear type story less cutscences more gameplay and i am well and truly sold. Ninjas and robots the two best things on this planet.
May 13th, 2005 at 5:07 am
I am already truly sold. The nintendo revo will rock if what aries says is true. btw where the hel;l is he? preparing for E3
May 13th, 2005 at 5:44 am
Well the stage is set for Nintendo to pound MS into the ground at E3…..Its obvious they will not be shown up even if they have to reveal more than they intended.
May 13th, 2005 at 6:30 am
According to http://cube.ign.com/articles/613/613340p1.html, the Revolution will be a little more than an inch thick. I honestly think that the main reason the GC was snubbed was just because of it’s design. Reggie admitted that. The GC disk is pretty big–it can pack as much detailed graphics as you like, but it cannot hold too many pre-rendered FMV. However, Nintendo is a smart company and they do all their cutscenes in real-time, so the cut-scenes take much less space. I guess other companies aren’t smart enough to do that.
May 13th, 2005 at 6:51 am
Now, with that true- yet truly awesome- news report that Cool Guy just mentioned above, it seems like Aries is lying. Didn’t Aries claim the Revolution was like a thick N64? Didn’t he say that the media played in the Revolutionary aspect? There still is chance Aries is telling the truth- as Nintendo could of changed the design in some way- but I don’t know… hm…
May 13th, 2005 at 7:00 am
Don’t be so sure of yourself there. Resident Evil 4 was totally real-time but still has 2 discs. It has more to do with the quality of audio and the resolution of textures than you might think. Yes FMV does come into play, but a big reason MGS and GTA snubbed GC is because of the amount of audio in the games.
Doesn’t matter now. A DVD will work just fine.
May 13th, 2005 at 7:13 am
Aries said the revolutionary aspect was the way the media went hand in hand with the storage medium………….and the design has no doubt changed many times. Just because it is thin does not mean it is perfectly flat across. It may be just as curvy as N64. Personally I loved thr 64 design…..it had a stance like a car rather than just sittling like a box.
May 13th, 2005 at 8:03 am
How is that revolutionary?
May 13th, 2005 at 8:18 am
Well, I’m new to this forum, but a long time Nintendo fan, and Playstation hater. I’m pretty excited about the X-Box 360, and right now am planing on having at least the new x-box and the revolution, just so my ass is covered if Revolution flops. Could someone re-cap the general feeling as to what the revolution will be? I can’t read a bajillion posts, but I tried. I like the idea of 3-D if it’s implimented correctly. If you had some sort of light weight, nice glasses to wear, that would be ok. You’d need to be able to look at the screen, and have it pop off as 3-D, just like the I-Max theaters. Those are great, and you can watch it in 2-D just like normal if you don’t ahve the glasses. So what I think would be ideal is this: Revolution is powerfull consol just like the X-Box 360 and the PS3. All the games could be in HD, and play with a normal controler. However, some games could have 3-D support. So you put on your glasses, and it would apear 3-D then. That would pretty revolutionary. But also the glasses would have the Gyroscopic control. So if you turned your head left or right, then the character would look that direction. Again, sorry if any of these ideas have been posted, and I’d appreciate it if someone could sum up the current feeling of whats going to be revealed!
May 13th, 2005 at 8:44 am
Firemaker: I have no idea how it is revolutionary……..that is what we are waiting to find out.
Guster900: The basic idea is this…
We don’t believe that 3D support was what Nintendo had in mind. The console should be more powerful than XBOX 360 but we don’t know how much. The controllers have been confirmed wireless and we believe will have gyroscopic controls and pressure sensitive grips. The Console is backward compatible and uses DVD media for new games. We believe the complex WiFi setup implies that a mass storage device will be on board such as a hard drive or possibly something else. I personally believe GC memory cards will also be compatible. The DS is confirmed able to connect wirelessly to the revolution. Other than that, most of it is too hard to say. We can only guess at software although we already know Square-Enix is working on various online titles. We discussed that the system is small and horizontal and thin. Hopefully it looks cool enough to make it a showpiece next to your killer home theater setup. They also confirmed HD gaming will be supported……….I hope they include multichannel audio too.

Sweet! Thanks for the update! Any ideas on a name for the system? While the gyroscopic controls and pressure sensitive grips do sound really cool, I don’t know if they are Revolutionary for playing the game… that said, Nintendo does want non gamers to be able to pick it up and play. I know for a fact my girlfriend who is completely a non gamer, would love gyroscopic control. People who don’t have the button layout wired into their brain like gamers do, always seem to do things like puch a button really hard, or turn the controller to try & get it to do what they want. So in that respect it seems like Nintendo knows what they’re doing for sure. Any idea on online play? Sure there will be Wi-Fi, but anything like an X-Box Live service? When do you think we’ll get some hardware specs? And what does everyone think Nintendos going to reveal at E3? With X-Box 360 coming out so soon, and Sony now saying PS3 could come out this year, do you think Nintendo might surprise everyone with an 05 launch? They had said over & over they wouldn’t be beaten to the market… yet that seems the case, pending a big surprise at E3…

You have all probably heard this, but I’m going to post it anyway.

“Nintendo, the world leader in video game innovation, stated loud and clear that they are not to be overlooked in the next generation home console race with the revelation of several unique features of the company’s next console system, code name Revolution, to key media outlets. According to the early information, Revolution will combine powerful technology and gaming-focused features in Nintendo’s smallest home game console yet.
In its final form, Revolution will be about the thickness of three standard DVD cases and only slightly longer. The versatile Revolution will play either horizontally or vertically, allowing the user total flexibility in setting up a gaming session wherever they have a television.
Thanks to Nintendo’s hardware development partners IBM and ATI, the small system will be packed with power that will enable it to wow players with its graphics. Nintendo’s legions of loyal fans will be happy to learn that Revolution will be backward compatible, playing both Nintendo GameCube 3-inch disks along with its own standard, double-layered DVD disks in the same self-loading media drive.
In the next generation, the addition of the Internet will be important to all consoles and particularly important to Nintendo. Revolution will be wireless Internet ready out of the box.
There’s much more to Revolution that will be revealed over the coming months, but the combination of its compact size, wireless Internet, backward compatibility, quick start-up time and quiet, low-power operation add up to the start of a great game system. Get ready for the Nintendo Revolution in 2006! “
May 13th, 2005 at 11:14 am
THANK YOU GOD FOR A SLOT LOADED DRIVE!!!!!!!!! THAT IS THE ULTIMATE IN COOL FACTORS
May 13th, 2005 at 11:15 am
At least I think that’s what it meant by self loading…………
May 13th, 2005 at 11:17 am
This is indeed very very very very good news! Man, am I excited!
May 13th, 2005 at 11:31 am

—————————————–
Nah, Sony “says” that, but PS3 development kits would have only just been released a little while ago. Plus, there’s lots of extra Cell testing that needs to be done.
I don’t think we’ll see the PS3 until 2006.
However, if Sony does manage to launch in 2006, that could be trouble for Nintendo’s Revolution, as it would have to match the launch date and push possibly unfinished software into completion. You can also forget any third party games being available for launch.
Regarding the Revolution size and what Aries said; He would not be aware of the actual final design of the Revolution, as he would only know what the dev kit looks like and what the design for the system was before he left Nintendo… if indeed he is who he says he is.
Still, this design is very tiny. I hope Nintendo can pack the neccessary power required to compete with Sony and Microsoft into their system.

well happy birthday!
and am I the only one who thinks it would be funny if Aries is really one of the higher ups at Nintendo and “Aries” will be the name of the new system? Kinda made me chuckle to think about the possibility of Nintendo finding a random blog to spread rumors.
May 13th, 2005 at 2:44 pm
cool video but its obviously fake. wtf was with “ostrich mario” at the end lmfao
May 13th, 2005 at 3:22 pm
WOW that was so elaborate! How the fuck can someone make a forgery that looks that real? I have half a mins to think nintendo is setting us up with all of these details just to fool us all at E3
May 13th, 2005 at 3:23 pm
That would be so sweet, nice video… I can’t see that being real, but who has the time to make that? LoL
May 13th, 2005 at 3:25 pm
No people say that with a week 2 people could do this. But seriously that is video is beautiful. Although gamecube didnt come out in 2002 so fake…… yes. Oh do the double layered discs concide with Aries comments?
May 13th, 2005 at 4:02 pm
The is spanish so he was refering to european launch in 2002.
May 13th, 2005 at 4:42 pm

May 13th, 2005 at 5:33 pm
Aries Says:
April 27th, 2005 at 9:02 am
“I can’t comment on the disk format, because that would give away far too much. All I’m going to say is that the disk format will play an interesting role in the “revolutionary” aspect of the console. The battery issue is also involved with this part of the console, so I won’t comment on that either.”
so we now know its a dual layered dvd…. so how is that “revolutionary”?
and from nintendo.com earlier today:
“quick start-up time and quiet, low-power operation ”
low-power? aries mentioned a “battery issue”..so maybe it will use a battery instead of plugging in?
May 13th, 2005 at 5:47 pm
the true test will be the kojima project, and all the OFFICIAL info ive heard, like square being on board or a small system, rly impresses me.
May 13th, 2005 at 5:55 pm
The weird thing is that the fake video mentioned a quick 30 sec time for something.
May 13th, 2005 at 6:00 pm
one eye, 5 toes, blue fish, banana
May 13th, 2005 at 6:01 pm
If you check again that Nintendo article, you’ll notice they removed the “dual-layered DVD” for “our own 12cm optical disk”.
May 13th, 2005 at 6:07 pm
oh snap…. so what do you think about that whole battery thing then?
May 13th, 2005 at 6:53 pm
I have to think that the controllers are rechargeable? OR MAYBE THE SYSTEM CAN RUN ON AN OPTIONAL BATTERY PACK ON THE GO!
May 13th, 2005 at 7:01 pm
that would be cool since its so small…. just a few more days and well know everything, shit i cant wait
May 13th, 2005 at 7:21 pm
At least we know that whatever it turns out to be, the editors and developers who have seen it all agree it kicks ass even though they can’t talk about it.
May 13th, 2005 at 7:47 pm
Anyone remember the exchange between Moz la Punk and Aries? Moz tried to get him to confirm that that the disk was double layered, he more or less guessed it.
Aries more or less informally confirmed it by answering “you’re a smart man”
The guys claims are on the verge of being a reality.
May 13th, 2005 at 7:57 pm
4 days left and hopefully Nintendo will show off the console and game play videos.
May 13th, 2005 at 8:10 pm

May 13th, 2005 at 9:29 pm
You got that off super-shadow didn’t you. anyway if you are going to post pleasse post on topic.
I don’t think it is a debate anymore. Aries is legit. As for the rev been backwards compatible, this makes me happy. I ca trade in my viper gamecube and get a revo. An i woder if the power and graphics will mean that on f-zero 4 player all the scenary comes back
May 13th, 2005 at 9:41 pm
whoa whoa whoa cmon now… yes ill admit so far everything is comin along according to what he said, but still… dont get your hopes up.. dont set yourself up to be disappointed come e3.. as much as i want to see a new vectorman game, and all that other stuff he mentioned.. i dont wanna goto e3 and be like “its cool, but ists not what aries said” then be all disappointed
May 13th, 2005 at 9:45 pm
Well you never know ninty might just be lying to surprise us even further. But xbox will have some serious trouble if the rev is more powerful. they are supposed to be the powerhouse but this time round i am loking to the ps3 for graphics and power after all last time they wre te least powerful but they had so much third party support. But you can undrstand why ninty was first sceptiacal about third party support. THe last time that everbody took on third party support in the 1980’s so much crap came out (E.g 100 difefrent versions of space invader) they decided to keep a close boundary. they don’t want to do that to the market again.

Nintendo Revolution will have four 2.5Ghz IBM G5 cores
Rumors are stating that the console will boast four 2.5Ghz IBM G5 Custom cores, with 128KB of level 1 cache and a 512KB shared level 2 cache, while the graphics will be powered by a dual core ATI RN520 chipset, with 16MB of on-board eDRAM for the frame buffer.
MoSys previously provided the 1T-SRAM memory technology used by NEC for the GameCube’s memory, and speaking in a live conference call following the announcement of the firm’s Q1 earnings, CEO and CFO Mark Voll said that it would again be fulfilling this role for Revolution.
“During the quarter we announced that NEC Electronics will now use our 1T-SRAM embedded memory technologies on their advanced 90nm process, and that the initial designs to be incorporated in SoCs will be used in Nintendo’s next-generation game console, codenamed Revolution,” he said.
The most interesting part came next, however, when Voll commented that: “We are excited to be a participating member of the Nintendo team once again as Nintendo will roll out its successor game console to the GameCube in mid-2006.”
YEESSSSSSSSSSSSSS
May 14th, 2005 at 3:50 am
it seems like a lot of news stories are popping up lately about the revo… about how big would a 12cm disk be?

May 14th, 2005 at 5:31 am
How much better is 1T-SRAM than the GDDR3 RAM, which is what XBox 360 uses?
May 14th, 2005 at 6:19 am
12cm disk is the size of a dvd, or HD-DVD. So, we still dont know if itll be a dvd, dvd-9, or hd-dvd, but im guessing dvd-9 (dual layered) because theyre cheap and no one needs 20-40 gb of space
May 14th, 2005 at 7:39 am
I’m sick of waiting. I want one now.
May 14th, 2005 at 9:15 am
Let’s make a list of what Nintendo did wrong with the GameCube:
1. Ugly box. I remember one commenter saying after Space World 2001 saying that the GameCube looked like kid’s lunch box. You’d be surprised how much looks affect what people buy. It affects what cars they buy or what people are hired, no matter how good the product is from the inside. When I first saw the PSP, I wanted it more than the DS, and thought that it was going to be more popular than DS. But when I look at what games are coming out for DS, I think otherwise. And let’s be honest: the GameCube is the best engineered console this generation. Nintendo’s quality assurance is incredible.
Ninteno has most likely solved this problem with the Revolution. A console the size of a three DVD cases stacked on top of each other has to be sleek.
2. The disk size. I think this to a much lesser degree than (1). 1.5 GB is a lot of space. Nintendo intended the GameCube to play games, not be a replacement for movies (just how big, in MB, do you think Paper Mario 2, Wind Waker, Mario Sunshine are?). But developers think otherwise.
Hopefully Nintendo has solved this “problem” with the Revolution as well.
Can you think of anything else? The GameCube was the easiest to develop for, so developers should have ran to GameCube development. Nintendo just needs to develop a strong user base around the Revolution, and developers will be forced to develop games for it. The Revolution also will have the same API, so developers can immediately start developing games without have to getting used to the hardware as much.
May 14th, 2005 at 9:27 am
3. The official color was purple.
May 14th, 2005 at 10:23 am
5) It’s first game was Luigi’s masion. A fun game, but the appearence ticked people off.
May 14th, 2005 at 10:29 am
my bad, that was number 4:)
May 14th, 2005 at 11:33 am
5) too many mario spinoffs and not enough true mario games. im tired of playing “mario shuffleboard” and so forth..
May 14th, 2005 at 11:58 am
next game that comes out :
1)Mario Acounting
-or-
2)Mario the Assasin =P
May 14th, 2005 at 12:05 pm
dude i would kill for mario football…………mario sports are often better than lisenced sports titles…………golf? tennis? i dare you to find better ones.
May 14th, 2005 at 12:31 pm
I’ve been following this blog for awhile now, and I must saw I find it quite misleading. Is this a publicity stunt? For the record, I can 100% guarantee that the Nintendo Revolution will NOT use 3D images a la Spy Kids 3D.
I worked for NOA for 5 years, and I am now currently working with a major 3rd party developer who happens to be working on all three next generation consoles. I’m not going to give out the company name, due to obvious reasons.
The next generation hardware will bring about a total change in the way we view video games. You already know about the power of the Xbox 360 (Huxley is a great example), but the PS3 and the Revolution are going to blow you away. All three will be at E3, don’t worry. I knew the PS3 was going to be a very capible piece of hardware, but I didn’t image it would be as powerful as it truly is. Microsoft ran around telling everyone how much more powerful the Xbox was over the PS2 and GC. I wonder how they are going to market the Xbox 360, since in will be the weakest next generation console.
I’m going to reveal some details about the Revolution, as well as give out some hints. I probally won’t reveal the “revolutionary” aspect of it, though. Nintendo has a enormous suprise waiting for you all at E3. You won’t believe your eyes. “

Those specs are rumors, its written right at the beginning…
BUT, the Revolution will have graphics that “wow” gamers, Nintendo.com said so yesterday. ^^
May 14th, 2005 at 6:59 pm
And it will be the size of 3 stacked dvd cases.
May 15th, 2005 at 12:44 am
Man if sony uses bluray discs for the PS3 its gonna have a major advantage over all the other consoles. But really it’s kinda dissappointing that Rev and XBox 360 haven’t really stepped up mediawise don’t you think? (I know GC used minidvd’s but I don’t really consider this “stepping up” since XBox and PS2 were allready using this format…)
May 15th, 2005 at 3:53 am
You never know. Nintendo could use blue ray dscs. after all what is being realised on the internet isn’t always fact. Pray that it is blue ray
May 15th, 2005 at 5:08 am
why do you want blu ray?
May 15th, 2005 at 5:41 am
Nintendo is obsessed with protecting their intellectual property, and moving to a format like blue ray would not be something they want to do. The DVD could be Nintendo’s own format, like the mini-DVD format for the GameCube.
May 15th, 2005 at 10:35 am
yeah why the hell is everyone praying for blu gay? dont you guys trust nintendo? they are doing what they feel is best
May 15th, 2005 at 10:59 am
i think i get the one eye, two eyes, one eye, four eyes thing
one eye, two eyes represent nintendo progressing with their first three systems
one eye (2nd one) represents the gamecube and its regression. as it should have been 3 eyes
four eyes represents the revolution and nintendo in general. although there last system was 1 they aren’t making 2; they’re making 4 as if the gamecube slump never happened.
this is just speculation.
May 15th, 2005 at 12:46 pm
Hmm okay i think i will take that back. hopefully though we will truly see something spectacular
May 15th, 2005 at 1:26 pm
Matt Cassamina of IGNCube has stated on IGN.Com’s Forums that Retro Studios is currently working on Metroid Prime 3, for Nintendo’s next-generation console, the Revolution! While the platform is unconfirmed, it would just make sense to put Metroid Prime 3 on the Revolution, as it would be very late to start a new GameCube project at this point in the system’s life cycle. Will we see or hear about the third Metroid Prime in a matter of days at E3 2005? You never know
—-
Interesting, eh? I personally think he doesn’t know whether its Metroid Prime 3 or not. Retro would of confirmed it on their website. All it says is that they are hard at work on a new game that will be revealed soon. I think its the game Aries told us about… God I can’t wait till E3!
May 15th, 2005 at 2:16 pm
they could be working on 2 games
May 15th, 2005 at 3:25 pm
I wish Aries would come back.
He said he might be able to on the weekends, never showed up.
Aries, come back. Talk a little something about E3 and the Revolution.
I think I actually might die if I don’t hear anything before Tuesday, I just can’t wait that long. It is killing me!!!

OMG YAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!!!
it does look like a mac mini and i love it!!! the contollers look soooo cool its like chopping it in half and holding one in each hand!! i dunno how the gyro thingy will work but the l and r are pressure sensitive like the gc’s?? dude i want oneee ssooooo baaaaaaadddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd
May 15th, 2005 at 4:55 pm
Fake.
May 15th, 2005 at 5:09 pm
hmm…It looks about 3 dvd’s thick, cant see the length, though. It’s white and sleek, kinda resembles the mac mini and it remains consistent to the information that has been leaked. It has a controller for each hand, gyros implemented, pressure sensitive grips, man this looks like it could be legit. I would get this, it looks pretty darned sweet
May 15th, 2005 at 5:11 pm
does that dude really expect ppl to believe him? a controller thats wireless with 2 halves? lol
May 15th, 2005 at 6:13 pm
Well Nintendo will need to show some kind of evolution in it’s media b/c, chances are, PS3 will. Nintendo doesn’t want to be stuck in the same boat as XBox 360 mediawise because developers will most likely develop for the most popular and powerful system then port titles. If XBox 360 and Rev are both using the same low memory media (comepared to PS3) then you can expect shitty ports with things removed to conserve space. It will definately be interesting to see how ports are done in this next console war b/c if all three systems use different types of media then I think game sales will really determine what title gets ported to what system. I could be wrong about a lot of this b/c I don’t really know the true economics of the video game industry but, whatever the case, the system with the most versatile media clearly will have the upper hand (obviously also taking system power into consideration with this).
May 15th, 2005 at 6:17 pm
Apparently they do. Woe are they, for they are at the unfavorable end of the gullibility spectrum. The post’s text SCREAMS fake itself, but as for the pictures…
The first one is stupid. That could be whipped up in five minutes in Photoshop. And Nintendo using the standard symbols for power and eject on their console? Yeah. Right. That sounds like a very Nintendo thing to do.
The second is worse. Those are some of the poorest 3-d renders I’ve seen… for something that was meant to look real. Put at least SOME work into it, eh?
You’ll note the initials (either for the common first name or a first name plus last name combo) “AJ” written in transparent grey pixels over the leftmost controller, just above the “Advanced Analogic Button.” For future reference: analogic is a word, but is not related to analog in ANY WAY. It means the same damn thing as analogous.
May 15th, 2005 at 6:21 pm
BluRay or HD-DVD are the sure way to go b/c they have A LOT more memory than do regular or dual layer DVDs. I mean look at N64, Nintendo didn’t want to change format and thus a lot of the games had to have dumbed down features (THPS series comes to mind). N64 games also tended to lack CGI because of this same problem. So what I’m trying to say is that the more memory the better, it just makes it a lot easier for developers if they have more room to work with don’t you think?
May 15th, 2005 at 6:26 pm
WTF? BluRay/HD-DVD is definitely not the way to go. It’s entirely unnecessary, DVDs have a long time before they’re lifespan is up. Fuck, we still have people who are just using VCRs. Almost no game on the Revolution / X-box 360 will use more space than available on the dual-layer DVDs provided, and if they do, they’ll just include two DVDs. I mean, how many GameCube games were too big to fit on a single tiny GameCube disc? Like two.
May 15th, 2005 at 6:48 pm
I agree. those pictures have to be fake. Those controlers would suck too.
May 15th, 2005 at 9:21 pm
I would like to clarify the disc media issue. The only reason Sony wanted to put their PS3 games on blu-ray discs is because they were going to use PS3 as a springboard to launch blu-ray movies into the market……..for example, anyone who gets a PS3 automatically owns a blu-ray movie player. Get it? This idea was brought about to jump out ahead of HD DVD into consumers’ homes, but now that the two may merge, who knows what Sony will use. In that case, it would be stupid to use blu-ray if it was just gonna be replaced by a new standard for HD movies. We have to wait and see what they do. The moral of the story is that dual layer DVD is PLENTY of space for a game and using a blu-ray disc with more space will not make the games any better except that a developer could theoretically put CGI movies in HD into a game, and they would load a little faster which really has nothing to do with gameplay. So worry about the system hardware specs and not the disc capacity.
On a similar note, you can bet money that nintendo’s dual layer dvd is not just any old dvd. They will use some sort of proprietary technology that prevents piracy unlike XBOX games which are easily saved on modded console hard drives. But you can rest assured that nintendo’s disc will not be lacking in capacity, because they did confirm that they are standard size and dual layered. BTW from the way they described the system, it sounds like the disc drive is gonna be slot loaded which is the sexiest feature you can have on anything that plays a disc.

Your probably right. I’ve seen poeple do so many things with modded Xbox’s. I have seen poeple store it on their hard drive and many more things. It’s the fact that the Xbox is just another computer that makes it like this. To be honest I would rather buy a computer than an Xbox. BTW round abouts how much space does a dual-layered DVD store? About 8 gigs? SUrely thats enough. we don’t need to be sticking harddrive dvd into our revolutions b/c that will be expensive just like n64 catridges. Nintendo must stick to DVD’s

I’m just hpoing that the revo will be cheap as wel as good. $200 dollars sounds good to me when i import it.

I like how the fake Revolution has two pitch black bars on the top and bottom that aren’t affected by light.
I also like how the buttons are clearly copy/paste jobs with different symbols.
I thought the point of Photoshop was to make realistic photo edits, not something a 10-year-old could do in MSPaint.

Have you guys seen this?

This dude from MS almost snaked nintendo’s plans for tomorrow, the bastard. He does however confirm from his sneaking that there is in fact a new mario title for GC, as Aries said 128 was still GC bound.
May 16th, 2005 at 9:56 am
I guess Matt is wrong and Aries is right, a quick visit to Retro Studios website and you’ll see that they mention that they’re working on a new title for the Revolution I assume.

“I would like to clarify the disc media issue. The only reason Sony wanted to put their PS3 games on blu-ray discs is because they were going to use PS3 as a springboard to launch blu-ray movies into the market……..for example, anyone who gets a PS3 automatically owns a blu-ray movie player. Get it?”
Whoever sed this hit the nail on the head because hd-dvd is the future of dvds. I hope the revolution is hd-dvd.
May 16th, 2005 at 10:57 am
We already KNOW what the Revolution is. It’s dual-layered DVDs, which is much more space than ANY game made for it will need. Switching to a bigger format would be a huge waste of money (and time, since they’d have to redesign the Revolution).

Nintendo changed the dual layered DVD comment to “12 cm optical disc”. I hope this is basically a Nintendo-manufactured DVD. (As in, it’ll still hold as much as a dual layered DVD, but just be produced by Nintendo themselves).

Metroid Prime 3 would be a new title, too.
May 16th, 2005 at 1:19 pm
They say its a “new project”, which to me sounds like a new game. you dont just say new project and then tell everyone HEY, WE GOT ANOTHER METROID PRIME. Besides, I bet they are tired of MP
May 16th, 2005 at 3:07 pm
i know i am tired of metroid
May 16th, 2005 at 3:19 pm
Another Aries rumor has become true.

Hey guys, saw first pics of the PS3 and its controller, all I gotta say, I was not pleased at all. To be fair though, the games and its specs were impressive, but the system and controller looked terrible. The controller is oddly shaped and the system looks like a printer or fax machine. I truly believe Nintendo has the opportunity to STEP IT UP and show us something great on Tuesday! What I learned from hearing about PS3 was that it has a GREAT game line-up and Nintendo should do the same.
May 16th, 2005 at 6:06 pm
dude, the ps3’s controller look SUPER ugly… im not a playstation hater but wow its ugly… the console itself doesnt really inspire that much either…
May 16th, 2005 at 6:34 pm
PS3’s core technology makes it infinitely better than the X-box 360, because both are to be judged by system power.
The Revolution doesn’t need to be judged by power; it’ll be judged by innovation. And Nintendo better have some innovation that’s good enough to stand up to super-graphics tomorrow.
Nintendo, you lost to the X-box because it was the most powerful and the PS2 because of all the third-party support. The PS3 is the most powerful and still has the support. IF YOU DO NOT TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO BEAT MICROSOFT, YOU WILL PROBABLY NEVER GET ANOTHER. GO FOR IT.
May 16th, 2005 at 7:21 pm
Actually the sole reason Micro$oft beat Nintendo was due to the onlon factor and slightly better controllers(in relation to sports games) Sports games in the US sell alot and the Xbox reutinely beat the GC in that category.
The power between the two wasn’t that far.
May 16th, 2005 at 7:26 pm
online not onlon. And also the Xbox beat the GC in North America. Not sure about Europe. In Japan on the other hand it’s not funny what’s happening to the Xbox. The world numbers I believe are GC 20 million Xbox 18 million. There is this illusion that the box beat the Cube but the world sales tell a different story. Fact is Xbox is in last place(discounting the Dreamcast).
May 16th, 2005 at 8:11 pm
There were a number of factors for the X-box beating the GameCube, and the difference in power actually is quite evident. I know plenty of people who bought the X-box solely f
