Reggie Fils-Aime tells CNN/Money that his company expects to undercut rivals; hints at DS redesign, rules out HD support.
The Revolution remains the most mysterious of the three next-generation consoles. With only the barest of system specs and no tech demos little is known about the device--or what is so "revolutionary" about it. So far, its most innovative features are a unique controller and repeated statements by its maker, Nintendo, that it will appeal a vast untapped market of non-gamers.
Today, though, one of Nintendo's most public faces said the Revolution will also stand out from its competition for another big reason--price. Speaking to CNN/Money correspondent Chris Morris, executive vice president of sales and marketing Reggie Fils-Aime predicted that the Revolution would be cheaper than both the Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3.
"Value has been a key card for us this generation and we'll continue to play it," Fils-Aime told Morris. "Do I expect us to be at a lower price point than our competition? Yes I do. Have we determined a price yet? No we haven't."
How low will Nintendo go? It's hard to tell. Rumors of a $199 Revolution are running rampant in forums, though there is nothing concrete to support such an assumption. However it would have to be below the only known next-gen price points. Microsoft is selling two Xbox 360 SKUs--$the no-frills $299 "core" Xbox and the $399 standard model with hard drive and wireless remote.
In his interview with Morris, Fils-Aime also reiterated the fact that the Revolution will not support high-definition televisions. "What we'll offer in terms of gameplay and approachability will more than make up for the lack of HD," he said. Both Microsoft and Sony are making much of the 360's and PS3's HD capabilities.
Fils-Aime also implied that the DS will see redesigns, just as the Game Boy Advance has. "As soon as [the DS] was launched, we started looking at ways to tweak it visually," he told Morris.

There must be something in the water over at Nintendo. With its upcoming Revolution console, the company is taking innovation to the next level and rethinking its normally rigid methodologies. It started with the unveiling of the console's controller, which has garnered equal parts cheers and jeers. Just last week, at the North American Nintendo press summit, company exec Reggie Fils-Aime explained how Nintendo will be imploring "disruptive technologies" akin to those of industry shakers Apple and Dell Computers.
Now another executive is saying that the Revolution might not even launch in Japan. Nintendo Europe senior vice president of marketing Jim Merrick told Eurogamer that the US, or even Europe, may get the Japanese-made console first.
"We're very serious about trying to be a more global company and not follow the stereotypical formula of Japan first, then the US, then Europe some time later," Merrick told Eurogamer. "Anything's possible. There are no rules that it must be Japan or US first."
Such a move would be very un-Nintendolike. The Kyoto-based company is well-known for taking care of its countrymen first, then sharing the wealth with other regions later. Whereas Nintendo has slipped in popularity in the US and Europe, it still holds a rabid fan base in Japan.
Regardless of who gets the Revolution first, the company is making an effort to see that it goes global faster than any other Nintendo console before it.
"With DS, we were 14 weeks, which was the tightest Nintendo has ever been with a console launch, and that was an achievement," said Merrick. "But with Revolution, we expect to do better than that. That certainly is our goal."
The Revolution will also be backward compatible with the GameCube without the aid of an adapter, according to Merrick. Even though the GameCube used the small 3-inch discs and the Revolution will use the full-size discs, both media will be read through the same slot-based disc drive.
Merrick also answered questions about Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima's contributions to the console. When asked simply if the game vet is working on a Revolution game, Merrick said, "To my knowledge, yes."
Nintendo is targeting the Revolution's release date sometime between April 1, 2006, and December 31, 2006.

We’re seeing some more Revolution tidbits coming out of the woodwork, thanks to an interview with an evasive but helpful Jim Merrick from Nintendo. He stated that Japan won’t necessarily see the Revolution first, and that the launch might “not follow the stereotypical formula of Japan first, then the US, then Europe some time later… Anything’s possible.” Which wouldn’t be unprecedented — the DS launched in the US before Japan — but would still be quite the move, and falls in line with other things we’ve heard about a possible attempt to match Microsoft’s rather ambitious world-wide “simultaneous” launch. Merrick also stated in a round about way that retro game downloads may only cost “a couple of pounds,” and that the 512MB of storage for such things would be expandable.

I just got an M3adapter and have been trying to use some of the games and emulators on the site, but I can't seem to get any of them to work. Is there a nifty idiot's guide out there?
I tried running Missle Commands DS and the SnesDS emu. But I get nothing but a black screen.
When running Castlevania X via SnesDS, I actually get the title screen before the screen goes black. So its something at least.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

As suspected, Nintendo Revolution will not be the final name of Nintendo’s new home console, with a new moniker expected to be unveiled in the run up to next year’s Electronics Entertainment Expo slated for May 2006.
Speaking to SPOnG today, Nintendo Europe’s Shelly Pearce, formerly Shelly Friend in her pre-marriage and breeding days said, “The Revolution is a codename for the new machine.”
The final name, unsurprisingly, was not offered, leaving us to wildly speculate as to what it might be. The Nintendo Ultratron is looking unlikely, as is Nintendo 3D Space Controller 4000. The possible re-branded NTO Fabulon Triptometer doesn't say an awful lot either; a shame really, as cheesy names with prefixes like Ultra and Mega carry a cluster of kitsch kudos with us.
Of course, Nintendo has always changed the names of its home machines from their original codenames, with the Nintendo 64 formerly being the Ultra 64 (as immortalised by a million Killer Instinct machines proclaiming the fact) and the GameCube, which began life as Nintendo Dolphin.
We had noted that following the showing of the Revolution controller at this year’s Tokyo Game Show, all Revolution branding had been removed from Nintendo-supplied official assets, paving the way for the revelation of the new name.
So, we don’t know what Nintendo has planned – nor does anyone we’ve contacted to date. It is a secret and a closely guarded one, as you might imagine. Let us know what you think it might be in the forum below.

So the first Nintendo Revolution software to be revealed as being playable over in Kyoto turns out to be the Chinese wok simulator as seen in the Revolution tech demo at this year’s Tokyo Game Show.
In a great interview with Games Life, Nintendo producer Hideki Konno mentions that the wok sim has set the offices alight.
“We're thinking of so many different things. We're still at the stage where we're trying so many different things. We're doing things with big, expansive movements and smaller, more concise movements. It's hard to narrow it down to one over the other. Did you see the Tokyo Game Show video? We actually have things using the movements you saw. Like the cooking game. We have this game with a big wok that you use to cook Chinese food, and it's really interesting to have the meat and vegetables frying in there, and use the controller to flip the food around without it spilling out of the pan.”
Of course, this got us wondering – are all the other tech demos seen from the TV’s perspective real, existing software? The wok simulator, that we’ll refer to from here on in as Wok: Chinese Food Master Gaiden III, was twinned with a slicing game. We wonder if that’s on the go in Nintendo’s offices too…

Off-screen gameplay videos of Animal Crossing: Wild World have been released, and—though darker and harder to make out than the direct-feed image you see here—they give insight into how the DS version is coming along, especially for those of us who haven’t played an earlier version.
Now we like text-based overviews of games as much as the next blog, but there’s nothing like gameplay trailers to show what an upcoming game will be like when you play it.

Revolution won't necessarily launch in Japan first, according to Nintendo Europe's senior vice president of marketing Jim Merrick, who also has some strong words for Epic Game's Mark Rein, who recently criticised the platform holder's next-generation plans.
Speaking in an interview with our sister site Eurogamer today, Merrick said Revolution might "not follow the stereotypical formula of Japan first, then the US, then Europe some time later". "Anything's possible," he said, when asked if the console could conceivably launch in Europe first.
Reacting to Mark Rein's recent suggestion that games using the Revolution's freestyle controller would be "gimmicky" and "cheap", Merrick paid tribute to Epic's strengths, but added, "he doesn't have a Revolution controller, he doesn't have a dev kit, he's talking about something he knows nothing about," before issuing something of a challenge - "if he'd like to get a dev kit and really dig into it, then I'd be interested to hear what he has to say."
Merrick also answered questions about pricing possibilities for the Revolution's back catalogue downloads, talked about other download possibilities, and confirmed that the console's 512MB of Flash memory will be expandable.
The Nintendo executive also reaffirmed, "I would be very disappointed if I went to E3 and didn't play Revolution games," and said that Metal Gear Solid creator Hideo Kojima was among developers working on the system.
