HOT new Nintendo Revolution details
Basically gotten from an interview with the president of Nintendo Europe. It's in Spanish, but here are the main details:
- NoE will set up over 25,000 hotspots across Europe
- The USB Wi-fi adapter will available on Nov 25th at 39.95 €. This adapter will also be compatible with Revolution.
- Revolution will launch worlwide within 14 weeks maximum (as in no later, hopefully earlier), that means on the same quarter in every region.
- Multiplayer mode in Revolution will be similar to the NDS: multiple players with only one copy of the game.
- You'll be able to download retro games from different regions (for instance, an European user could download Super Mario RPG for the SNES from the US server).
- When played on Revolution, N64 games will have better framerate but there won't be significant graphical improvements.
- No Revolution games will be shown in 2005.
- There won't be any significant differences in the graphics of Revolution compared to the other systems
Compared to the Questionable backwards compatibility of XBox360 and recently the PS3. The Revolution is certainly starting to stand out with their download service and GC compatibility.
