Rev fully unvieled on mAy 9th

[SE fanboy]

During its pre-E3 press conference in May, Nintendo disappointed many by revealing little about the Revolution. Other than showing off a mock-up of the console form factor and announcing the console would play NES, SNES, N64, and GameCube games, the game giant revealed little about the next-generation console. In the months since, it has let a few details about the Revolution trickle out, the most significant being pictures of its much-vaunted controller--which has been much-derided for its resemblance to a TV remote control.

Today, though, gamers got a definite date when Nintendo will absolutely, positively reveal the Revolution in all its glory. The Mario factory sent out a "save the date" e-mail this morning saying that in "a mere 165 days to go (give or take)" it will reveal "all the incredible details about Nintendo's upcoming games and hardware, including our next home console, code-named Revolution."

So when will be the Revolution's coming-out party? Unsurprisingly, it will be at next year's E3. Specifically, the console will be unveiled at Nintendo's pre-E3 press event, which is slated for 9:30 a.m. Pacific time on May 9, 2006. The venue will be the Kodak Theatre--home of the Academy Awards--in Hollywood, California.
They say sony is taking long unvieling it :lol:

*Sigh* All this waiting is making me turn grey and old. I feel like my youthful ability to dream is fading each month that passes... *sings Dust in the Wind*

I can't wait for next year E3. It's going be the best E3 ever.

But i heard they were saying that they were going for a worldwide release in June or something. That means that many of the things we see from the Revolution at E3 will be just around the corner, including the console itself :D

Im sure 2006s E3 will go down in history as the most intense ever, all 3 console will try to strut theire stuff as best they can at that show. Will be far more exciting than last E3 where almost everything was just specs. Will be nice to finally see some mayor playable games!

Next E3, thats too far away! Oh well I'll still have PS3 to keep me occupied.
