Gamefront just posted this news, but the babelfish seems confusing to me:

E3: Expiration of the Nintendo revolution presentation still unclearly 04.03.05

Nintendo did not decide yet, how one will present the new console Nintendo revolution on the E3 in May 2005. Thus a speaker said opposite the Nintendo Dream that one was not yet in the clear over it which one will show to the E3. At present Nintendo is busy to plan the revolution exposure for E3 and therefore can it still no details over the expiration call.

E3: Ablauf der Nintendo Revolution Präsentation noch unklar

04.03.05 - Nintendo hat noch nicht entschieden, wie man die neue Konsole Nintendo Revolution auf der E3 im Mai 2005 präsentieren wird. So sagte ein Sprecher gegenüber der Nintendo Dream, dass man sich noch nicht im klaren darüber sei, was man auf der E3 zeigen wird.
Derzeit ist Nintendo damit beschäftigt, die Revolution-Enthüllung für E3 zu planen und deshalb kann er noch keine Einzelheiten über den Ablauf nennen.

Maybe a german can translate to better english?
 
Why ? They just still don't know how they will they present the Revolution and how much they'll show of it.

Exactly, it just seems to be an echo of that PR guy's comments a month or so ago.

Ah ok, I just thought I read that Nintendo was unsure if they should present the Revolution, and later in the sentence it said it will be there.
 
because they want it to go down a storm the first time and create a bombshell of hype and speculation.

its like watching tv soaps and sitcoms, the more shocking the story line, the more people are gonna talk and speculate about it.

the best ones are those that get the whole family in debate after the programme is finished.
 
I think what may happen is they'll reveal screens/movies/tech demos of next gen games, along with developers and specs and whatnot, but they'll leave the "revolutionary" part out for oh... a year.
 
I cant see it paying off for them not showing anything concrete. Last year nintendo stole the show, i would expect them to do something nig this year as well.
 
the revolution will be (or not) in the gameplay.

The rev will be playable or not shown.

It is the DS all over again. Imagine the feedback at E3 2004 if the DS was not playable.

I'm not so sure about that. Microsoft's unveiling their next system at E3, and PS3 will probably be playable. Nintendo's a pretty secretive company. My guess is that they'll leave the big feature unrevealed until next year or a show devoted to themselves.
 
once again, didn't read the thread.

[drunken post] no time for tech demos this E3. show games, or prepare to eat a nice juicy piece of shit my love[/drunk post]
 
Ok, Nintendo will definitely show the "revolutionary" aspect of Revolution at E3. They almost have to. Otherwise, it will be overshadowed by hype.

By that time, i feel it will be much too late. That is unless the revolution is so different to anything anyone ever expected.

I'm Dutch, but I usually understand German pretty well... This is what I understand from it:

E3: Result of the Nintendo Revolution Presentation undetermined.

04.03.05 - Nintendo has not yet decided how they will present the new Nintendo Revolution console at the E3 in May 2005. A speaker told to Nintendo Dream that Nintendo isn't sure what they'll show at E3.
At the moment, Nintendo is concerned with planning the Revolution-revelation for E3 and for that reason no details about the result can be disclosed.
