[Stimutacs Addict]

save these, I'll bet less than 3 of them are true.

[jasonditz]

-A new edition of the musical game ‘Samba de Amigo’ originally sent for Dreamcast. Uses two revcon as drum sticks

Samba de Amigo uses maracas, not drums.

[NWR_pap64]

I'll believe it when I see them...

The funny thing about the first Tomb Raider game on DS rumor is that a friend of mine on his Podcast mentioned that it wouldn't be surprising if the recently announced TR game for the DS is really the first game updated with DS features.

OMG CelShaded!

[KnowsNothing]

Yeah, wow, whoever made these seems to have just thrown out a bunch of ideas hoping he'll get a few right.  If some of them turn out to be true, it's just luck.

[IceCold]

Especially the Pikmin 3 thing - Miyamoto specifically said that even though the controller would be great for it, they have no plans as of yet. 100% complete? Please; EAD has too much on their plate already..

[King of Twitch]

Revolution in June in Japan... come on.. don't BS me.

[Knoxxville]

How about NiGHTS 2 being 65% complete?  Or that the Phoenix game, the no-show from the Gamecube exclusive "Capcom 5" is now being reworked into a Kid Icarus game?  I HATE that they keep on misspelling ICARUS!!

[Caliban]

"Soul Calibur 4 annonced for all next-gen consoles"

I remember that before Namco released Soul Calibur 3 they said that it would be on next-gen sytems, they were refering to SC3, now I think it will be pretty obvious that SC4 will also be on next-gen systems.

[Djunknown]

"A remake of Soul Blade for the DS"

Interesting. Will it be a straight-port, or will it get the Dreamcast treatment that Soul Calibur did? Will it use the touch screen in some way?

"Revolution to be released in June in Japan"

Old rumor the boys at IGN discussed a while ago. Bogus.

"Released in America in September and October in Europe"

That'd be ideal, but I wouldnt' hold my breath. If they could shoot for a fall release, the die-hards can pick them up with a handful of titles. There'd be enough stock and some new titles just in time for the holiday season. Nah, too perfect...  

"Ikarus(Kid Ikarus 2) developed by Retro Studios"

Ahh Kid Icarus. The rumors begin again. But by Retro? hmm...

"Possible new edition of Counter Strike for Revolution"

Could ideal controls switch Counter Strike players on the PC to the Rev? They're a hearty bunch...

"Pikim 3 is 100% complete"

A few years ago(2003-2004?), Miyamoto made a speech to some university students about game design. He said he already had the basic idea of Pikmin 3 in his head.  I wouldn't be surprised if Pikmin 3 is ready for launch...

[Knoxxville]

...nice.

[cubist]

I'd never thought I'd say this about rumors...but those sound pretty cool...sounds like everything I've thought up in my head except with an FZERO universe.  Starfox should just be on a long vacation for a couple of console generations...maybe like a retired franchise going to the gaming hall of fame (SNES version).

[trip1eX]

Well if you make enough predictions you're bound to get one right.

-Midway has three titles on the way. One being”incredible”

Confirmed fake.

[Dirk Temporo]

That sounds like a list of wet dreams, not a list of rumors.

[MysticGohan]

So that's why I felt a lil wet this morning!! :p

[Hocotate]

Some pretty crazy stuff on that list. Do you guys think that if EVERY singe one of these came true, that the rev would blow Sony and MS away?

Yeah, nothing out of Midway was, is or ever will be "incredible".

And yeah, sounds more like wet dreams than rumors.

Everything here is a good start, but it's not enough. We'd need a good portion of these games (and then some) at launch, and a healthy pipeline of post launch titles coming out afterwards. We'd need several of these games to be "amazing" quality (the sort of thing IGN gives high 9's to), we'd need the stuff like Burnout and Fight Night to play much better on the Rev than it does on the competitors, and we need another flagship title to emerge, because nothing on this list loooks like it's "that game".

I mean, Nights and Kid Icarus were both impressive games for their respective times, but neither was a breakout hit. Both are going to require Metroid Prime-calibur revamps if they're not going to get chalked up as some retro niche title. That's asking an awful lot.

Blowing Sony and MS away is no small task. Nothing short of the Rev being the next iPod-type cultural phenomenon will accomplish that, and I just don't see that happening right away.

I see the rev being a much more gradual success. Not the sort of thing everyone's lining up to buy at launch, but a DS-type success, something that the public eventually warms up to, as developers become more familiar with the hardware and make better use of it.

Here's  a better translation of the rumours from the original source which wasn't in English

Quote
First of all, they note that this info is not directly linked to E3, and that some of it may not be talked about at the show.

Europe launch for DS Lite will be on eitehr the 9th or 16th of June. Most probably, according to their sources, the 9th.

The original Soul Blade game for PSX will be remade for the DS

All next gen consoles wil be getting the next iteration of Soul Calibur

"It seems almost confirmed" that the new Tomb Radier will be on Rev. There will also be a DS version and the Cube version of Tomb Raider Legend will contain extras the versions on other consoles did not have.

They claim that they have confirmation that the Nights into Dreams game rumored for Revolution is no rumor at all; they claim they can confirm it is being developed and is being directed by Yuji Naka, that it is 65% complete, and that it will use the Revmote exclusively, no nunchuck or shell.

Once again, rumors point to a June/July launch for the console in Japan, with the rest reciving it between Septembar and October.

The launch color will be white, with black and other colors following soon after. The color will be directly related to the game that comes with the console.

The sensor bar under the TV will match with the color of the console.

Retro Studio is giving Kid Icarus a complete makeover for its Revolution debut. The name of the game is Icarus. They also go on to say that this rumor seems to be the real thing.

A new Star Fox game is in development. It will rely solely on the Revmote for control.

There is a horse racing game in development aimed at the japanese market.

Fight Night is in development and will use two Revmotes.

Burnout Revenge may not be the Burnoutgame that will be on Revolution. Instead, Revolution will get the next entry in the franchise.

Peter Molyneux was planning on beggining development of versions of Black and White and The Movies for Revolution before Microsoft bought the company.

35 develpment kits were sent to Rockstar London/Take Two about a month ago. Nothing about what kind of game it may be is known, but it seems unlikely that it will be a GTA game.

One of their sources says that he can confirm that Ubi Soft has 9 titles in development for the Rev, many of which will be launch titles.

It appears that the suspected Prince of Persia version for Rev seems completely confirmed.

Super Smash Bros. for the Rev will be subtitlted "Mayhem". (The part of "Caos Total" is simply the way you would say it in spanish, NOT another option).

Nintendo and Valve were in talks during the month of March about bringing an exclusive new version of Counter Strike to Rev.

The Rev control in Zelda: Twilight Pricness will be used in combination with the shell. Its use will be limited, not a full blown translation to the Rev control wise. For example, using it in situations ehre you are in firts-person view.

However, they do say that an exclusive dungeon may be included that exploits the new caracteristics with a new item. (They do not say to what caracteristics they are referring, though I suspect they simply mean the Revmote's unique qualities).

Zelda: Twilight Pricness has changed a great deal, and we may be surprised when he see the new images come E3.

Pikmin 3 is completely finished. They cannot confirm *****'s calims that it will appear at E3, but they would expect that would be the case. It will use the Revmote exclusively for controlling the game.

=========================================================================== =============================================
From here on they cite somebody called BigTac. It appears that he is some kind of insider that has proven himself honest in the past.
=========================================================================== =============================================

There will be online launch titles from both Nintendo and 3rd parties.

Sega games on other systems will also be available for download.

Midway is developing three exclusives for the Rev. One of them being "incredible".

They vaguely mention there will be two gorgeous RPGs and some new/wierd games at E3.

There will be cheap games between $25-$30.

Developers have known the new name of the console since January.

We must keep our eyes on Zoonami.

Capcom will have 2 titles for Rev at E3. They may or may not be playable.

Another big name designer will be announcing a new game for Rev at E3. They say it may be the Naka Nights into Dreams game they reported on.

Red Steel will not be the only game revealed prior to E3, although Nintendo will not show anything till then.

BigTac says that NoA hyped him up when they talked about Red Steel, stating that NoA told him, "This is nothing", "You haven't seen anything yet",and "This is only the beggining".

Minoriteam: The Game: Curse of the White Shadow? Seriously, wtf?

Quote

Zelda spin-off, perhaps?

[IceCold]

I hope Nintendo isn't stupid enough to only launch with white...

[TrueNerd]

C'mon guys, everything on the internet is true.  

[wandering]

Everything on the internet is true except this sentence.

Edit: On an unrelated note, I've been thinking about the rev-game-tied-to-system-color thing, and, it'd be interesting if it had to do with a light world/dark world mechanic.
