Note that this is not the RELEASE date.  Just the date where they show what this system really can do.

There'll be videos.  And don't worry, Swift, Gamespot's videos are 56k friendly.

NO REMOTE CONTROLLER!

...unless it's a controller that LOOKS like a controller and acts as a universal remote, too.  That'd be the Batch!

Turn it sideways.  There, instant NES controller.  Plus there's going to be shell controllers for it.  

Besides, the remote is a secksy tool for gaming.  Do some research on it like I did.  You'll be pleasently surprised.

I'll wait and see what changes, if any, are made before final release.  No sense in getting hyped up like a FFVII fanboy on crack before we know all the facts...

The instant I get a Revolution, I'mgonna get CV 4, Metal Warriors, River City Ransom, Section Z, Killer Instinct, and a whole wack of other classic Nintendo games on it.... Those ones come first, though.

Depends how much it costs but i'm guessing it'll be worth it for all the classic games with revamped graphics. Personally i'll want as many metroids as is available, megaman x(1,2, and 3), chrono trigger, and any other particular good, older games that i can't think of right now.

That's like asking why Square isn't porting Chrono Trigger to GBA when they're doing FF II (IV) and III (VI) nowadays.

PROBABLY because they remade it as Metroid Prime >.>

What?  Super Metroid and Metroid Prime are nothing alike.  They don't even take place on the same planet.
Title: Nintendo Revolution to be revealed May 9th, 2006!
Post by: Byte Man Zero on December 01, 2005, 02:34:38 pm
Super Metroid was all about saving the last metroid from the Space Pirates.  Metroid Prime was all about Phazon.

You fail.

I have the First Hunt demo, and from what I've seen multiplayer is pretty awesome. There are a ton of better FPSs though.


Also, As to why Super Metroid didn't make it to the GBA: Metroid Fusion took it's place, and did a much better job that a port would have.
