I hope you guys all know that the Revol will obviously be "super backwards compatable" which means you can play every previous nintendo platform game ever made, for GCN, N64, SNES, and NES.

You can also use GCN controllers for their respective games, but unfortunately not for Revolution games.

If you still want to go old school with the Revo, there will be a kind of Wavebird controller you can use, although this will not work with games that need the Gyro controller.

I think that's about it...if you have any other useful information relavent to this topic post it here otherwise discuss away ^^

Even so, there's got to be some kind of "old-school" type controller of some kind so classic gamers wont be left in the dust th_em-no.gif

there is no point in playing DVDs or CDs

why you ask

THINK ABOUT IT, does anybody not have enough money to get a DVD or CD player, BUT does have enough money for a video game system i think not

pluse a regular dvd player or cd player would probably work better anyways th_em-yes.gif th_em-yes.gif

yeah, the revo sounds like it's going to kill everything... once again

after all, the biggest arguement for the x-box/ playstation/ gamecube debate, which one is better, all X-box and playstation had to fall back on was 'it can do more than ust play games'

come own the revo will not tower over the ps3 or maybe the xbox360 because the companys wont let that happen

when the ps2 came out you didnt have to buy sepret things in order to get it to play music or dvds
and the xbox all you had to do was buy the dvd kit and it already was able to play music
and the gamecube couldnt play music or dvds only games i got to say i need some tunes to play games it helps me consontrate and play better

and how are they going to make the revo do all that stuff with out it looking stupid
and where are you getting all of this info about the revo? th_Evil_laughing.gif th_em-jay.gif

It WILL!!! tower over the PS2 and the Xbox360. compate a TOTAL SALES CHART for all the systems, and you'll find that nintendo already won. they have made the best games ever, not just one hit wonders like the other two
