Couldn't see these elsewhere, but I apologise if they've been posted already.

This is how you play GC stuff)

I wonder what the flap hides.

Give me silver/white please.

 

[Cold-Steel]

Great design, now where is the games?

 

[KnotLikely]

That ferrari red Rev looks smokin. Best console design ever IMO*.

[Date of Lies]

sorry but the Nintendo revolution looks way slicker than the Xbox360 and the PS3.
PS3's design dissapoints me seriously, I thought Sony had good style.

 

[RiZ III]

No detailed specs, no demos, no games... I'll pass.

 

[vatstep]

GCN controller ports pretty much confirms that the Revolution's controller is going to be quite different. Different enough that you wouldn't be able to use it for Cube games.

 

[MrDaravon]

I was thinking that front flap was actually a tray that would come out for GC games.

 

[Monk]

Damn that is indeed sexy.

 

[puck1337]

Looks like it belongs on a server rack. It needs a little softening, but I'd still run screaming to the store if I had a chance to buy one.

I think they said in the conference that they both load via the slot. That raises a question actually... do the slot drives in Mac Mini and other devices support small size CDs/DVDs?

 

[Hitman]

Fuck! All the colors look SEX!

 

[TheDuce22]

Yup, it looks like an external cd drive. Maybe im crazy but it seems like that plastic flap would prevent you from connecting the wireless wavebird adapter to it.

HOT HOT HOT

definately my fav looking now.

loving the on the side for GC thing as well.... Wonder if the revs saving scheme will work for GC and the mem card slots are just for people wanting to use their existing saves or not, anyone know how that will most likely work?

Maybe im crazy but it seems like that plastic flap would prevent you from connecting the wireless wavebird adapter to it.

I'll check later, but I think the wavebird reciever connector was nearer the bottom of the receiver so it shouldn't be a problem. I'm pretty sure they are on a wireless drive as well, so they will have almost definately accounted for that.

 

[alejob]

Cool! Any pics of the back side?

 

[Ruas]

HOT! But is it really only 3 times as poweful as GC?

 

[Azelover]

Very good design, but that logo has to go IMO.

 

[Ecrofirt]

Anyone else notice the controller ports are backwards? The flat part is the top of the port, so you'd be going 4, 3, 2, 1

revolution not a code name then....?

 

[Jonnyram]

Nope.

I think Wavebird plugs would fit (this photo shows the sockets upside down and the wavebird plug sticks out upwards), but they may support Wavebird internally, or maybe even the new controller will play GC stuff anyway - they may just be including this for people who want to keep using wired controllers.

Yes, but that makes sense since port 1 is near the front of the console.

Exactly how I feel.

 

[Speevy]

I want this machine with the PS3's specs, Microsoft's controller/online play, and support from Nintendo.

 

[Jesus Carbomb]

Its a mean looking sumbitch (in a new sexy kinda way) when layin horizontal. Stark contrast to the Gamecubes "smilie faces". I like

 

[dkeane]

I think that's right the way the have it.

 

[cvxfreak]

This will support the WaveBird. Notice that the ports are upside down.

EDIT: Damn, this board moves fast.

Now if only Nintendo would make a GameBoy Player for it...

 

[radrelic]

WHAT?!


NO PURPLE?!

NO SALE!

 

[Idioteque]

Great looking system, but I want to see some pics of the games.

 

[TheDuce22]

Yeah there is not enough clearance on the bottom for the wavebird plugs unless the scale of that pic is messing with me. It must be done internally.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

puke green is the new hotness.

it's spewin sexy.

I'm getting red.

 

[videogamer]

?
There are little dots represent the port numbers.. and they go from front to back. I'm not sure about the ports being upside down either. Check out the second view and note where the slot is. Then re-orient the first view.

 

[Pedigree Chum]

Nintendo craeted the best looking console ever with Revolution. I back that statement up 100%.

But the PS3 design is really nice too, a lot better than PS3. It looks quite slick from both the vertical and horizontal position.

As seen here: http://www.ga-forum.com/showthread.php?t=47782

X360's design is decent, but lacks focus.

 

[jgkspsx]

Very good design, but that logo has to go IMO.

It's the worst logo in recent memory... makes some (most?) of the fan fakes look amazing.

 

[Shaheed79]

Wow that is quite sleek and cool looking. This is the best looking console Nintendo has ever made it would be a shame if it ended up being less powerful under the hood cause the casing is gorgeous.

 

[number386]

Damn I want a purple one, seriously.

I wonder if Nintendo is going to sell the white stand seperatly, like Sony does.

 

[Saki]

Where's the handle?

 

[sc0la]

Logo is shit. That is certainly an interesting place for controller ports. I could see wired revolution controllers making use of the ports as well.

 

[Shaheed79]

Nope.

Yes, but that makes sense since port 1 is near the front of the console.

I see no reason why the Wave Bird wouldn't fit I just checked my connector with the image and it will fit perfectly comming off the right side.

 

[robochimp]

These colors had better not just be a tease like the orignal Gamecube revealing.

I want the lime green one

 

[Malakhov]

Sexy, sexy, sexyyy!

 

[Ristamar]

Thank god they put the controller ports in the correct way, otherwise the Wavebird would be fuXX0red. Not that it really matters, I suppose, since they said it wasn't the final design...

EDIT: I see I was beaten to the punch.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

Damn I want a purple one, seriously.

yeah, do the dvd consortium or whatever still extract a fee from people? That's why the XBOX didn't have it standard I thought? Was the stand confirmed as being the DVD add on or was that just speculation? Me no remember.

 

[blahness]

where are the usb ports hiding at?

 

[Drozmight]

Looks damn nice. They are hiding the back.

 

[themadcowtipper]

Logo is shit. That is certainly an interesting place for controller ports. I could see wired revolution controllers making use of the ports as well.

Revolution controllers are already wireless, those are for gamecube.

 

[cubicle47b]

Great industrial design. I think all the next generation systems look better than their predecessors but this is my favorite. I'd like to see the back, though (and the damn specs, games, and support).

 

[Hollywood]

So you might be able to use GC controllers on Rev games? Cool. I wonder wh ybother with the ports though, why not just put Wavebird recievers in the system and make people use the Wavebird since its a better controller anyway?

 

[Beezy]

That blue light........it just calls to me.

 

[Laurent]

Very nice indeed... I supose they plan on releasing the 4 different gamepad designs of NES, SNES, N64 and GCN wireless? That could be cool...

The flap hides the Game Boy cartridge slide?

EDIT: I don't like the angle when it stands vertically...

 

[Baconäger]

I knew it had GC ports (and made a topic about it which like no one replied.)

 

[cvxfreak]

Well, at least with the memory card slots intact, we can always use that third party GBA Player thing if Nintendo doesn't make one for Revolution.

 

[Amir0x]

Awesome. Awesome.
