Speaking of awesome, I played a demo for Shadow the Hedgehog. I can't get used to his guns though.

I have no idea, although you can look it up in Wikipedia =P Probably around spring 2006, but there won't be anything besides Nintendo games for it because they won't give away their "secret project". They appeared to be afraid that the other companies would copy their ideas...

Blinx, you're going to choke me for saying this, but the XBox 360 was out a couple of months ago. My cousin has one now.

Spring? Don't count on it, they haven't even shown any actual games yet, let alone playable ones.
We'll find out more about it at E3. Don't expect release any time before winter 2006 at the earliest.

The Xbox 360 comes out November 22 for U.S., December 2 for Europe, and December 10 for Japan. ("360 Launch Date Revealed!" Game Informer. 151 28.) As for the Nintendo Revolution, your guess is as good as mine.

I heard somewhere that they were not going to show any Revo game before the end of 2005, and they plan to have playable games for E3 2006. Got a good year I imagine, they want to get it out in time for the 2006 christmas rush in my opinion.

Graphics don't matter so long as we get a game thats good. =P
Although, can't knock a Nintendo system for graphics really, they've always been top notch, and run at really silly speeds.

It's coming in...  But I bet you have already known, eheh. No, there is no official release date yet... But, some rumour say the Revo will has its release sometime in next summer (May / June), after the end of Nintendo's current financial year (March). End of 2006 will be very late - if they want to sell a minimum amount of this Revo mashine, they must release it before PlayStation 3 attacks the market. If they won't do it, the Revo will be a failure. Eee, eee... the videogame market is the satan, haha. Ow, better hurry with the preorder - before it will be out of stock already, harrharr. (you know, worldwide launch is The Torture for videogame dealers, and in this case, for MicroSoft itself) Then, your cousin might be a special person :D I read somewhere Miyamoto will give a keynote at Digital Interactive Entertainment Conference, which means we have a chance to see a Revo game at that event (December 2, I think...?). I count on a late spring release, by the way... |

There's just no way it'll be spring and I will bet money on that. Consoles are always revealed an age before release.
Given that the Revolution controller was only shown a couple of months ago, its safe to say development companies didn't have development hardware at that time (how can they start making games if they didn't even know what the controller would be especially with all the talk of it being so different). A game will take atleast 9 months to develop unless its really rushed. Rogue Leader was put together in 6 months but that was a very exceptional case.
Nintendo are slow at putting games together and they have always been of the mind set of delaying something until its finished rather than rushing or cutting massive portions of gameplay.
Autumn at the very very earliest. Maybe Summer in Japan, but even that will probably be stretching it. Its just not Nintendo's style to reveal something and then release it within a short time.

I don't really think Japan would care anyway, since only an extremely low percentage had an Xbox. The DS sold way more than the Xbox in Japan. It was about eighty-something percent who had a Playstation 2 and about 20-something percent who had a Gamecube. Can't remember the exact statistics.
Well, my brother's getting his Xbox 360 if he gets straight A's for the entire year. I'll get a Revo for my... graduation present? xD; I don't know any other games coming out for the Revo besides the Super Smash Bros. Revolution (want want want!). I'll have to read up more on 'em.
