Its been a while since I've posted. But as you die hard fans probably already know, Nintendo's Revolution is expected to be under $300. That could mean $299.99 for all we know. Many are predicting either $200, $250, or $299. I'm thinking $250 is more likely.

Also, there seems to be confirmation that the system will hit before Turkey day this year. Sounds like Nintendo was forced to release it by then in order to get support from retailers.

The best thing Nintendo can do to ensure a successful launch is to have some killer must have type of games, and ensure they don't pull a Sony or Microsoft and have a hardware shortage. I think they really need to explore having the Nintendo DS as a compatible controller right out of the box for all of their games. This will further entice Nintendo fan boys to get the Revolution.

    Its cool that you're more excited about the PS3...but be prepared to wait. There are lots of stories of the PS3 being delayed, where as many reports are saying the Revolution will be out by thanksgiving 06 for under $300.

    Speaking of the DS, is there any game system as hot as the DS right now? Lots of great games available NOW and many more to come in the coming months. I feel bad for the PSP'ers out there.

    Doug,

    You should definitely get Mario & Luigi: Partners in time. My wife and I are playing this game nonstop. Some other great games: Animal Crossing, Castlevania DOS, and Meteos is pretty addicting too.

    There several hot games I'm waiting for, such as the remake of Final Fantasy 3, New Super Mario Bros., and Super Princess Peach.

    Now if only Nintendo could port some of the cool sports titles over to the DS: Mario Tennis, NBA Street with Mario characters, Baseball...
