Perhaps there are clues to what is on the horizon for the Revolution if you take a look at previous systems (boxy NES/SNES designs, curvy N64 designs).

And you don't understand why you are accused of trolling? You love it, don't you.

Um, I'm trying to make a serious post about what the next Nintendo console will look like. I noticed the U-Force had some similarities with DS aesthetically and wanted to spark discussion on what people thought Nintendo would do for the design of the Revolution, perhaps giving a nod to older NES/SNES/N64 designs.

Really guys, you need to relax.

That thing rocked with Punch Out and Rad Racer.

 

[cvxfreak]

Those two look nothing alike to me except for general shape and set up.

How are people to know? I mean you taking interest in a new Nintendo console is sorta hard to swallow.

I can't have curiousity about what the next (and possibly last, if my old tag would be true) Nintendo platform would look like?

ok, I just thought it was one of your normal posts. Well I guess we have to wait for E3, I have no idea.

If your old tag were true, then GCN would be. I am not saying you do not like Nintendo games, just Nintendo hardware.

On topic, some kind of touch screen controller (that still mainstain current control standards) would be a great idea. One step closer to keyboard/mouse controls without the bulk.

Before, we would just get trolling.

Now after every comment even mentioning Nintendo we get an accusation of trolling and then either a weasely plead of innocence or a whiny excuse.

I'm not sure which one to prefer.

Was that an apology? No?


I think it depends on whether or not MS/Sony reveal console prototypes.

I guess I look similar to you then!

Still, the connection is haphazard at best, and you'd better off comparing the DS to that two-screened Game and Watch thingy.

Something in between. The comparision is weird, and with your nintendo trackrecord no one knows. If you take interest in the revolution you might even buy one? Or is it strecthing it

Now THAT'S inspiration.

Are you seriously fucking serious?

 

[ferricide]

not to mention nintendo didn't even make the u-force. jesus.

topic grade: F-

WILL THE REVOLUTION LOOK LIKE THIS!?!?

 

[FitzOfRage]

The U-Force was made by Broderbund, not Nintendo. If anything, I might say it was inspired by the Game and Watch, but even then, since we're talking about the most vague similarirties, it's not a unique setup really. I mean you can pretty much make as much of a case for any item with a hinged top that folds down like the GPA SP, laptop computers, and waffle irons.

And BTW Nintendo didn't make the Power Glove either, even though that always seems to be attributed to them also.

TEH NOES!

OMG IT SI TEH NINTENDOODS! ROLFCOPERTES!

 

[Scalemail Ted]

Edit: Anyway, to seriously respond to your question. Aren't the designs of the NDS and the revoultion done by two separate teams at Nintendo? Are the hardware teams the ones who design the aesthetics of the system?
