Voici le nom Officiel de la Revo

NINTENDO Wii:
voici ce que dit Matt C.

April 27, 2006 - Nintendo revealed this morning that the official name of its formerly codenamed Revolution system is Nintendo Wii.


The Big N explained the decision behind the name in a statement, which we've provided below:

Introducing... Wii.
As in we.

While the code-name Revolution expressed our direction, Wii represents teh answer. Wii will break down that wall that seperates videogame players from everybody else. Wii will put people more in touch with their gams... and each other. But you're probably asking: What does the name mean?

Wii sounds like we, wehich emphasizes the console is for everyone. Wii can easily be remembered by people around the world, no matter what language they speak. No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii.

Wii has a distinctive ii spelling that symbolizes both the unique controllers and the image of people playing it. And Wii, as a name and a console, brings something revolutionary to the world of videogames that sets it apart from the crowd.

So that's Wii. But now Nintendo needs you. Because it's really not about you or me. It's about Wii. And together, Wii will change everything.

Voici une image de Zelda TP tout droit de Hyrule.net
regardez bien il y a qq chose d'etrange dans cette image!

Evenement à ne pas manquer.

Il interviendra demain matin ( heure local ) c'est à dire dans l'apres midi chez nous!

J'espère qu'il y aura un peu de concret parce que en ce moment Nintendo n'est pas tres communicatif concernant la Revo!

j'aurai eu + de 500 visites rien qu'aujourd hui!

faites péter le champomy champetre chaume les bois!

Qu'est ce que Tendo a fait ou va faire avec le montant de la vente de Rare a Billou ( ils ont gaché PD0 et Kameo)?

EA est tres exité par la révo ( surtout la manette ) et est déja en possession de kit alpha.
EA souhaite dévolepper un partenariat plus important avec Big N
ils sont très confiant de la voie que Tendo prend!
leurs equipes penchent sur bcp de jeux utilisant les spec de la manette, nous verrons les 1ers screens a l'E3 ou peut etre a Las Vegas en debut d'année

Voici ce que j'ai trouvé en
ageant sur le web

The source provided the following information under conditions of anonymity, as well as some other general Revolution statements:

- Hollywood is based on ATi's RV530 GPU
- The GPU has been optimised significantly (more on that below)
- The graphics are not as bad as IGN might make them sound
- The Revolution's RAM, whilst being around 128MB, is highly optimised

Here are the specs for the RV530, thanks to Anandtech:

RV530

600MHz Core Clock
1400MHz Memory Clock
512MB Maximum Memory for XT
256MB Maximum Memory for Pro
128-bit Memory
12 Pipelines
Maximum 16x32MB 1.4ns GDDR3

High Optimisation

The source described the Revolution's optimisation like this:

Although he acknowledged that Revolution will not be as powerful as 360 or PS3, he said that the optimisation level of Revolution is similar to that of the GameCube: although it did not have the highest hardware specification, it managed to churn out the best graphics in titles such as Resident Evil 4.

RAM

The RAM is 1T-SRAM, as previously reported. The source mentioned some optimisation of the RAM but did not clarify.

We remind you that this source is very trustworthy: the information that we broke exclusively on IBM's Broadway is now mirrored in the comments of various developers to IGN.

There is no official word from Nintendo, however. Take this as you will.

en gros les graph de la révo ne sont pas aussi basic que ne le prétend matt cassa- queqchose....

Quoi qu'on en dise Sony a réussi son pari ( + ou - )

Sony a réussi a prendre 28 % de part de marché à Nintendo sur les portables.

GBA ( SP et micro ): 41%

Voici ce que Nintendo of America a repondu a un fan décu:

Our competitors would have you believe that the next generation of gaming will be solely defined by high definition graphics. High definition graphics look fantastic, but come at a price. To shine, high definition games must be played on high definition televisions, which aren't cheap. Games with high definition graphics are expensive to develop because they must be developed in both standard and high definition formats. Those development costs are passed on to you in the form of more expensive software. Finally, playing games with high definition graphics requires a system with loads of RAM and costly high-end graphics chips, both of which make it prohibitively expensive for most consumers.

Sharper graphics are certainly part of the next generation. We know that games for the Revolution will look brilliant whether played on a standard television or on a high definition television. However, is that all there is to next-generation gaming? We feel that sharper graphics should be combined with a new way to interface with the game itself. Our controller is a sharp departure from the current standard, to be sure, but it will provide a level of interactivity you can't get currently.

We believe in providing a single system that can play not only the previous generation's titles, but also games from a massive library built over 20 years of creating innovative and exciting games. We also believe in providing a complete wireless online experience right out of the box.


Nintendo has created a gaming system that is sleek and compact in size, powers up quickly with minimal load times, makes game development easy and fast, is easy to use, and is affordable for everyone. We are confident that gamers and non-gamers alike will support the truly next-generation experience only Nintendo can provide. Once you have a chance to play games on the Revolution, we think you'll agree!

Nintendo of America

Nintendo has chosen not to release official technical specifications for its next-generation console and it may never, according to company executives. The Big N believes that comparing horsepower between consoles is a lost cause and that the software standouts in the next-generation will be determined by the quality and originality of the games, not merely how flashy their graphics become.

En gros, au cune inquietude a avoir au sujet des graph de la révo!
allez sur ce site remis à jour:
http://www.is06.com/revolution/ ( merci a mariods )

D'après jimmi un membre du forum jostiq la revo sera puissante et contrairement à ce que denis dyack disait, les jeux seront long.
en effet ils seront de le meme trempe de zelda twilight princess( meme si on connait pas tout du jeu).
Toujours selon lui on aura des newz très prochainement ( 2/12/05 ou la premiere semaine de janvier).
Hideo kojima le confirme aussi.

voici ce que dit jimmi ( en anglais biensure )

I attended the final seminar yesterday, It was pretty monumental too. Lasted about 3 hours (usually about half that!).

I *strongly* do not believe there will be a visor. Most certainly not infact. It's just not happening in this gen. Maybe Nintendo have a secret plan to release it in a couple of years? But from what Nintendo expect developers to produce does not seem like something that would use a VR helmet.
We got to see a few Nintendo games too, 2 from HAL and 1 from Nintendo themselves. Silicon Knights are seemingly throwing tantrums. They are not going for smaller games at all. There is a belief though for game studios to work on lots of little games and bundle them together on a single disc. A new 'Home Arcade' way of playing. They will be a lot cheaper than the big games too. Don't know if I can say this but the Twilight Princess seems to be a route of gaming they want to stay down. Not kiddy, not adult. This must be the new angle they are after; non-demographic gaming.

We also got specs! I'm not a spec sort of guy but going off the reactions of the guys there it was something special. And going off that I don't believe in a cheap price tag. Not with the things this machine is capable of. Which also leads me to believe HD will be possible, they were cloudy on the issue. Its good they announced it this late though; its a common technique used in design. Get an idea of what you want regardless of what tools you have to work with which takes out restrictions. These speeds have a very high ceiling for developers.

Oh and we had security guards kick out 14 people from sneaking cameras and voice recorders in! Fools!

ps: voici le lien du forum, il y a pleins de chose interessantes qui sont dites.

voici l'interview de kojima:
More news very soon
A Spanish gaming site called MeriStation has interviewed Hideo Kojima who spilled a bean or two concerning when we might get new info on the Revolution. Here´s Revolution Report´s translation:
MeriStation: We saw statements (from [Nintendo President] Satoru Iwata's video conference) about the Nintendo Revolution controller. Has it been tested already? What opinion do you have of it? Do you have some ideas for future games?

Hideo Kojima: As the creator, my work is to create original and intuitive games, giving importance to the experience of gameplay. Therefore, innovation is very important. I believe the step has given Nintendo, in order to approach video games to a currently non-casual gamer public, has been huge. I have a couple of ideas to the ones that go through my head when I'm able, but of course, I cannot say anything. You will have news very soon.

Kojima is scheduled to speak at the Video Game Symposium on December 2nd of this year, immediately following Nintendo Game Designer Shigeru Miyamoto’s speech.
