Well,
as predicted,
Iwata-san didn't announce a price, date, or even officially name the
Revolution at his keynote speech at GDC this year, but they did
announce one very interesting tidbit. Remember how the Revolution is going to play games from and emulate every Nintendo
home console to date, starting with the NES? Well, that's not all: they're also including emulation for the Sega Genesis
and Turbo Grafx. Seriously, who would have thought back in the 80s such bitter rivals would eventually become so
subsumed to the N as to become a retro software package? So if y'all been missing Bonk or Sonic and haven't been up to
the eBay hunt (or garage sale circuit) to get your fix, just hold out. Who knows, hold out long enough and maybe, just
maybe, we'll get some Saturn, 3DO, and Jaguar support, too.
