No Acclaim killed acclaim with BMX XXX.  That and turok would've killed any company.  Hopefully Reggie can cook up support for revolution.  IF revolution gets support like the DS then the planets all will be right in the universe.

The Nintendo Revolution should be the shape of a Reggie figurine.  When you turn it on, Reggie's eyes will light up red and it will say "If you don't play with me, I will kick your ass!"

Oh man.  My idea is so awesome!

It's perverted on too many levels. Nintendo would never go for it.

It is a good idea though. Microsoft might steal it.

I'm about to go punk up some 3rd parties so they don't release games on other hardware, ciao!

You suck AiX2, get on MSN.
And nuuuh-uuuh, Nintendo TOTALLY killed Acclaim off. Acclaim were all "here's Turok Evolution" and Nintendo were all "oh yeah? WHACKICKASSURPRISE" which caused Dave Mirra to get angry at nudity.

I think Nintendo's showing at this year's E3 showed that they know what they need to do for the next generation. I believe Nintendo is smart enough to know that when you've got the least amount of 3rd party support, you can't release a radically different system that would essential make ports impossible. Especially when the specs between your system and the competion's is (allegedly) virtually identical.

In other words, Nintendo probably isn't going to make it so that the Revolution's controller hooks up to your nostrils, and gameplay is controlled by sneezing.

Besides, didn't Rick Powers hint at the Revolution being backwards compatible?
