Where'd you find them?

nemo_83 · « **Reply #2 on:** July 31, 2005, 04:37:12 PM »

they're on several sites; nintendo-next.com, jeux france, and blogs

Where is there any evidence that these are the real deal? They look nice but in reality they're probably just a bunch oh stuff that guy who created ON has been cooking up. :/

that face looks like a mix between Ian Mckellon and Liam Neeson

Does the last picture signify the ressurection of the 'Capcom Phoenix game getting canned and turned into the new Kid Icarus' rumor?

*The pictures in the first post don't work for me so this post is in reference to the blog link that was posted above.

I'm gonna go ahead and call BS, but the pics are impressive, whatever they're made from.

Why can't I see the pictures? I get an access denied message.

Dasmos · « **Reply #8 on:** July 31, 2005, 06:15:18 PM »

I couldn't get them to work either, but just click on the blog link below. I think they are the same pictures.

mantidor · « **Reply #9 on:** July 31, 2005, 06:29:48 PM »

I wish I could recognize at least one, because they seem to be from animation shows. I say its BS also, and the faker just found some rare and underground animation movies to release the screenshots.

The Icarus one looks so cool, why those fakers are so damn cruel!?

bastards, they are just like hackers and spammers, the scum of the internet.

EDIT: I think I already recognize the first one, isnt that the face of Marius from the Diablo II cinematics? It looks a lot like him.

I have a feeling that maybe somewhere in the translation from the other side of the pond was lost the idea that these pictures were not actual REV pics, but existing examples of what the REV hardware is capable of which would mean the revolution is in the graphics which would floor everyone at this point.

mantidor · « **Reply #11 on:** July 31, 2005, 07:16:32 PM »

I highly doubt it, Nintendo couldnt have posibly stressed out more that graphics arent important.

BlackNMild2k1 · « **Reply #12 on:** July 31, 2005, 08:18:37 PM »

Well I found out where these pictures are from and the have nothing to do with Nintendo or their Revolution.

You are taking the subject in the wrong context...They don't matter because they offer nothing new...What is being stressed is that a new method of playing games is far more important than a boost in graphical prowess...You're also failing to realize that Ninty seriously understressed the power of the Gamecube to the point that everyone believed it was going to be weaker than the PS2...Remember what Iwata said at E3? When we see the graphics, we will say "Wow."

pudu · « **Reply #15 on:** July 31, 2005, 11:39:04 PM »

yup recognized a few of those right off the bat. I highly doubt rev will look similar to those pics. Those are all renders using an advanced 3d renderer called Brazil. It's sad there is so little Rev news that this is what it takes to generate excitement.

OptimusPrime · « **Reply #16 on:** August 01, 2005, 02:48:24 AM »

Kid Icarus as the Angel of Death...talk about a face-lift. Let me guess, the game gives you powers like turning entire cities in salt, killing babies with a snap of your fingers and telling the occasional virgin girl she's pregnant?

mantidor · « **Reply #17 on:** August 01, 2005, 03:01:50 AM »

LOL

anyway the angel of death didnt announce the Virgin Mary she was carrying the messiah, it was Gabriel. We really need a decent angel's game (I just love the whole mythos behind them)

Bill, Im aware of that, but putting that kind of visuals wouldve mean that Nintendo was putting enphasis in the graphics and not the interface, pulling off something of that quality wouldve require a huge expense in that department, of course Ill gladly eat my words if those turn out to be the quality o Revs graphics

so Brazil... Ive never heard of it until now.

Exactly...

Dammit, I swear the always overly optimistic Bill is the only poster that is worth reading anymore. How do people get so pessimistic when absolutely nothing is known 'officially' about the new system. Everyone wants to be all down on it and it bugs me. Although the constant mailbags are nice to have... they are making me sick.

Do you guys remember when the Cube launched? This site was so optimistic it made me crazy. Billy flying to Japan just to buy one. Pics of him opening the box. What the hell happened to that? Aren't we Nintendo fans? Aren't there still gonna be Nintendo games on the new system? Doesn't the Gamecube already have beautiful graphics? It's not like you look at GCN games and go "Damn I wish the Cube's hardware didn't limit them so much." So isn't any improvment gonna be awesome?

Seriously... can't we just be Nintendo fans anymore? Or do we have to be pessimistic whiners?

"Do you guys remember when the Cube launched? This site was so optimistic it made me crazy. Billy flying to Japan just to buy one. Pics of him opening the box. What the hell happened to that?"

At that point we knew a whole lot more about the Cube. He had seen the controller, the games, etc.

Plus Nintendo was at a different position then. Sure the N64 was a "failure" but there was an excuse. It used cartridges. So the general assumption at the time was that by going to discs Nintendo was putting themselves on equal footing and thus would regain a lot of lost ground. Well they didn't really and, at least for me, that really killed a lot of faith in them. The Cube didn't flop because of one big oversight. It flopped because Nintendo were fricking clueless and seemed to have no idea what they were doing. When the Cube launched the N64 was seen as an exception to the rule and Nintendo was mostly still seen as a dominant force in gaming. Now with two "failures" Nintendo in last place is more expected. Nintendo has to prove otherwise and in order to do that we have to see more info regarding the Rev.

Hey guys I played Resident Evil 4 today, I got to the hedge maze, it was fun

Pale · « **Reply #21 on:** August 01, 2005, 07:27:49 AM »

Not really... The cube was far from a failure as far as Nintendo gamers are concerned, especially figuring the greatest game is yet to come.

There are just as many, if not more, reasons to by hyped about the Rev. The Gamecube had its downers but peopled ignroed them (small discs, toy took, less power) and still got excited.

Now look at the Rev...
basically unknown specs so you shouldn't stress there...
downloadable classic games which come with guarantees of online presence
a sexier looking machine
a yet unannounced special aspect
backwards compatibility with the gcn

There are much fewer things to be worried about than there even were with the GCN.

I think its just fashionable to be down on nintendo right now and too many people are trend whores.

And why the hell do you keep calling the GCN a failure? It has great Nintendo games and Nintendo made money with it so they aren't going anywhere any time soon...

Again... what the heck?

Bill Aurion · « **Reply #22 on:** August 01, 2005, 07:33:29 AM »

People who think the Gamecube is a failure either 1) base everything on marketshare, or 2) really hate videogames...

And I really can't add anything to Pale's post, because there's really nothing more you CAN add...Being cautious is fine, but being blindly pessimistic and proclaiming Nintendo's doom is hilariously absurd...

Yea I spent two years at the Art Institute of Portland studying media arts and animation and spent a lot of time looking at renderers and graphics programs so that's why I know about it. (side note I didn't finish the program so don't think i'm a animation guru...I do know quite a bit though). I'm guessing most ppl on this site would be most interested in realtime game engines anyway.

Yep I think you hit it on the money. Everywhere you turn ppl want to be accepted and, therefore, turn to trends/fads. Basically what I've come to realise is most ppl think that if you like anything Nintendo you are lame or uncool. Personally I don't care in the least to tell ppl I own a cube but most of the time I say I do ppl give we strange looks and act like if they continue speaking with me they may catch some of my "uncoolness".

Anyway, this shows how image is everything. You see, it's cool to like Halo, it's cool to like GTA, but it's uncool to like...well...most Nintendo games...because we know they are all games that only the outcast panzies play right?

The best thing about fads is that they are always short-lived. Now...if only Nintendo could put an end to this. They're already doing a lot right. The question is what will the all-to-desperate Ninty haters find this time to bitch about???

/end rant....sorry about that
