Looks remarkably like the one everyone called fake. Even has the drop down slot

oh my god

THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING

if there is a garfield game it will SPELL DOOM FOR SONY AND MS

 

[Rocket Punch]

:O

 

[Operations]

Not a fake this time. Real deal straight from Matt C.

 

[AniHawk]

That's the hottest new system yet.

 

[Sho Nuff]

if you like bricks

 

[Krowley]

hard to say whether that is sexy or not from that angle... the fact that it's so small makes me think it will look pretty cool...

and i'm glad it's not curved... ps3 looks nice, but i was hoping one of the next gen consoles would be more minimalist in design.

 

[Dsal]

hmmm...
wonder what the controller's like...

 

[sc0la]

Oh snap!

 

[bitwise]

That's the hottest new system yet.

cant link to ign pics anymore.. wont show up.

 

[demon]

Could someone please resize that? I'm on broadband here, but shit, images this hi-res take all night to download.

 

[AniHawk]

if you like bricks

I DO LIKE BRICKS.

 

[Amir0x]

Need a bigger pic, but I like it because - once more - it'll blend in lovely with my entertainment system.

 

[xsarien]

I'd need a bigger picture, but right now it doesn't look terribly distinctive. Almost like an optical drive you'd slide into a PC case. I do like the blue glow from the drive slot, though.

 

[Zerodoppler]

No ugly consoles next gen! Everyone wins!

 

[Grizzlyjin]

Damn, Nintendo really knows how to play the game now. That pic is pretty small, but it looks mighty sleek from what I can see. Like something I would expect from Sony. :lol

 

[mutsu]

That's the hottest new system yet.

Agreed. I would buy this any day over PS3 and XBOX 360 just because of the design.

 

[duderon]

What does it do differently?

 

[MmmBeef]

That shot makes it look like an iomega Zip drive.

 

[Operations]

Not a bigger picture available. Matt probably didn't get clearance from Nintendo.

 

[Hero]

Viva la Revolution!

Seriously, that is a sexy looking console if this is indeed true (which everyone else is claiming it to be).

Out of all the next gen consoles, this one looks the smallest and least 'out of place'.

Can't wait.

 

[fse]

wow

 

[BlueLegs]

That blue light will either look very cool at night or be very annoying at night.

I also wonder how the GC discs will go into this machine, do you just slide it in and hope for the best ???

 

[AniHawk]

cant link to ign pics anymore.. wont show up.

That work?

 

[bitwise]

That shot makes it look like an iomega Zip drive.

haha thats the FIRST thing I thought of!

 

[ThongyDonk]

looks really long though looking at it.

Whats the white stand?

 

[Virgin Wii]

FUGLY! Not as bad as PS3, but pretty close. Who woulda thought that Microsoft would have the sleekest console?

 

[Die Squirrel Die]

Damn, Nintendo really knows how to play the game now. That pic is pretty small, but it looks mighty sleek from what I can see. Like something I would expect from Sony. :lol

It's almost like Nintendo designed the PS3, Sony designed the Rev and then they swapped.

 

[El Papa]

SWEET!

 

[Amir0x]

I would buy this any day over PS3 and XBOX 360 just because of the design.

:lol :lol

 

[Grizzlyjin]

hmmm...
wonder what the controller's like...

:lol

 

[norinrad21]

Please give us a bigger pic,

that thing looks neat

 

[effzee]

finally a slick looking nintendo system


nintendo better show a controller and games!!!!

 

[Lazy vs Crazy]

What does it do differently?

You can download and play any Nintendo game ever on it.
For reals.

 

[imastalker co.]

im gonna look into what that white thing is.

but yeah, i've always liked the design.

 

[AtomicShroom]

Wow! I can't believe how small that thing is! It looks much better than the Xbox 360 and PS3 imo. But the fact that it's this small really makes me wonder about its graphical capabalities. :/

 

[Krowley]

if they're giving us pics of the system AND the GC zelda tonight, i wonder how much they will show tommorow... i think this bodes well for their conference.

 

[mj1108]

This is something I would have expected out of Sony.....but Nintendo?

 

[Red Scarlet]

Looks kinda like a PS2.

Why doesn't it look like a globe? THAT'S WHY IT WAS CALLED REVOLUTION.

 

[Project Midway]

OMG WTF LOL!! TAKE THAT POS3 AND XBOT360!! Nintendo BACK ON TOP!

Seriously, that looks good. I hope their games will reflect this sleek mature look and dont have that kiddy shit look most of the GC games have.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

they got the hardware to look like it competes. that's important.

interest * a lot

 

[teiresias]

The Revolution is so minimalist that you have to connect it to your TV with an RF switch.

 

[PkunkFury]

I'm gonna miss game machines that look like toys, that I can trip over at night without breaking, that come in shades of purple, green, anything...

 

[byproduct]

Nice!

So X360 is the only non slot-loading console!

 

[Virgin Wii]

Looks like it's in the shape of a wedge. Can't tell, but it looks like the back is more narrow.

 

[mutsu]

Revolution is "two to three times more powerful than GameCube," according to Nintendo.

The system will offer a "free Internet-based player-matching service, similar to Xbox Live." The service will also offer downloadable versions of classic Nintendo games, such as Donkey Kong and Super Mario Sunshine.

Hot tiny sexy!

 

[gururoji]

I hope that "stand" part that's a different color isn't an actual part of the unit--if so, then I think this is my choice of the three aesthetically so far. If it's part of the system I dunno. Hard to tell from this angle.

The PS3, especially when the controller is in the picture, looks -too- futuristic to me, and the Spiderman font really turns me off. It's hard to ignore, too, when the writing takes up a lot of the width (or depth) of the console.

Edit: Wow, in the time it took me to write the post, there were 2 other posts about the "stand"???

 

[Timbuktu]

OMG WTF LOL!! TAKE THAT POS3 AND XBOT360!! Nintendo BACK ON TOP!

Seriously, that looks good. I hope their games will reflect this sleek mature look and dont have that kiddy shit look most of the GC games have.

Maybe that's why they would launch with Metroid? Is the white stand like an iPod dock? Like one of those laptop things so you can move to a different room easily?
