It just seems too good to be true.
1. Realistic FPS with swordplay (bound to garner many fans, if done right) set to be a Rev launch title.
2. Very mature game and gamePLAY to combat the kiddié image. If I wanted, I could laugh at people and say, "What? You still play that ghey xbox sh!t? That thing's for girls and homoz! Nintendo games let you use the controller as the handle of swords and guns and let you chop people up and lay them out, GANGSTA STYLE!" I admit, everything in those last sentences is atrocious, but I guarantee you that this exact mentality is what sells consoles to insecure gamers and, unfortunately, they have money too.
3. Nintendo aided Ubi in the development, meaning Nintendo is in full diplomacy mode, willing to reach out to third parties to help them make their games all they can be on the Rev.
4. Online multiplayer swordfights?!
5. Contrary to popular belief, the Rev's graphics will not be just slightly below those of the N64.
It's like everything I wanted to hear about the Rev and what Nintendo is doing with 3rd parties, hence my fear that it'll turn out to be untrue.
