Nintendo Revolution unveiled

What a week, first we had the Xbox 360, then the PlayStation 3, and now the Nintendo Revolution. Well I think without doubt the Nintendo wins on aesthetics.

Nintendo Revolution... mmm... super sexy.

What a ‘beautiful’ piece of hardware, I bet the PlayStation design team are kicking themselves, this is really what I expected from them. It’s sleek, is the size of a stack of three DVD cases and has no visible knobs, buttons or ports for joysticks. The system will use only wireless controllers, and it sits flat or stands vertically.

Ok so the Revolution pretty much loses the fight in terms of processing power but as Nintendo’s Perrin Kaplan says: “It’s not all about having ‘turbo power’, It’s about what you do with it.”
