Nintendo Revolution News

EuroGamer recently sat down with Nintendo Europe’s senior vice president of marketing, Jim Merrick, to pick his brain (I do hate that expression) on several Nintendo-related subjects, not the least of which is the Revolution console.
While you should go read the entire article (which is long and juicy), here are some excellent tidbits from Infendo:
- While suspected, Revolution is not the final name, the company is still throwing other names around.
- Kojima is indeed working on Revolution.
- We can expect many playable games at E3, including ones that use the remote, nunchuk, or the shell add-on. It’s up to the developers.
- Nintendo games certainly won’t be shown before 2006 as Merrick pointed out before, but it’s up to third parties when they want to show theirs. No timeframe was given.
- The virtual console games will be very cheap and the “usual suspects” of third parties are already signed up.
- The 512MB of Revolution’s flash memory is expandble.
- Full (probably small) new games, demos that last 30 days then expire, and game music/trailers will all be downloadable through the WFC.
- Europe won’t be very far behind in getting Revolution, Japan might not get it first.
