The Nintendo "Revolution"

Dominator:
Finally, we have it for you. The very first official picture of Nintendo's next-generation console, codenamed Revolution. Behold!

Yes, that is the largest picture we have for now, but it's better than nothing, right? The floating DVD is obviously meant to show that their system is in fact about the size of three DVD cases, as announced earlier. Along with this picture, we also have new details on the console and its online network.

Nintendo is billing the Revolution as about two to three times more powerful than the GameCube, which may seem like a bit less than the Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3, but Perrin Kaplan wisely notes "It's not all about having 'turbo power,' it's about what you do with it." Nintendo Revolution games will use the standard DVD format and will be fully backward compatible with GameCube games. The Revolution will also play normal movie DVDs. Nintendo will offer a FREE online matchmaking system. Also, using their online service, Revolution owners will be able to download (likely for a fee, but that has not been announced) many Nintendo games, both new and classic.

Nintendo's pre-E3 press conference takes place later this morning, and you can bet GamesAreFun will be sure to give all the details as soon as we get them.
