[Definitive] Nintendo Wii Thread


Recommended Posts

Ya I noticed that right away too, I wrote it off as coincidence tho... (I suppose they might purposely be hinting...)

The biggest thing for me was the fact that

a) Nintendo was mentioning "feel" everywhere, so obviously alot of peoples assumptions have been based around that to some degree. This of course takes it to the level where "feel" means "feel".

b) On the website they mentioned the technology being used for gaming more than anything else. I mean, that would be a totally KICKASS 3d modeling tool to go along with 3d studio max or milkshape. I can think of so many other uses than just gaming... infact, as far as PC gaming goes, I don't see quick adoption, but if it were standard in a console, obviously it would get out there and be free to use.

I still hope for a vr headset tho :blush:

Very interesting read apperntly confirming the Nitendo On Video as real and also explaining the tech specs of the Revolution. As moz says take it with a pinch of salt:

fake...

as far as i know isn't the new Zelda for GC....so this right here would prove its false wouldn't it...

I also know for a fact that the new Zelda for the Revolution is being created by Shigeru Miyomoto

^ and yes in the article it does say that he's talking about Twilight Princess...not the Revolution Zelda....hell, he mentions Twilight Princess going to Revolution like a billion times....and hasn't been confirmed over and over that its a GC game....

Uh the demos at the E3 were on the GameCube and next month's or a future Nintendo power is going to have demo disks. Plus every video game website has it registered as GameCube, not to mention EB and GameStop have pre-orders for it already for GameCube. There is more evidence that it is going to be on the GameCube rather then the Revolution.

i'm thinking you totally misunderstood my post...

i know its a gamecube game....but this article that i was refering to mentions about a billion times that it will be on Revolution...

i was using him saying it was a Revolution game to prove that the whole article was most likely BS....

I know there is some talk regarding "the revolution zelda" which is essentially just a reference to the pre-e3 conference where Nintendo said they are making a new zelda to be released for the revolution. So YES, they are working on a new zelda. ALSO there are a few different Nintendo departments that make zelda games, they pass games around to different designers to keep the games fresh with different peoples different takes on them.

From what I remember reading, Zelda is only developed by the Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development (EAD) division run by Miyamoto. I don't think different divisions work on the Zelda series: Wikipedia

Though it's an interesting read, I think the whole thing is fake. What convinced me was that he kept talking about the ON thing being real, highly unlikely IMHO, as well as all that talk about the controller having different pieces and the 'project reality' add-on. I seriously doubt Nintendo would want to confuse their costumers having so many separate components. Their focusing on simplicity.

Since I don't have an edit button, I will reply to myself.

I stand correct, there have been other divisons that worked on Zelda besides Miyamoto's divison. Starts at bottom of page and continues on a for a few pages: Nintendo's Divisions

i know a revolution Zelda is in development...

but in the article he refered numerous times to Twilight Princess being for Revolution....which we all know it is not....i was using that to prove that the article is BS....that is all...i was not saying there will not be a Revolution Zelda....i was just saying this article is BS because he mentions a million times that Twilight Princess will be on Revolution....

excerpt for the article/ he is saying that is there is a zelda being developed for the Rev, but then he tlks about TP for GC..

I also know for a fact that the new Zelda for the Revolution is being created by Shigeru Miyomoto and will be a chronicological sequel to Ocarina of time and Majora?s Mask.

But from what I?ve played from the exclusive insider demo of Twilight Princess( the version the public hasn?t seen). It looks to take the crown of game of the year. From what I have seen it takes things like context-sensitive cut-scenes and action-sequences that made RE4 and God of War so good and expands on them in-game and in cutscene.

Unless if you are Shigeru Miyamoto himself I seriously doubt you know when the Revolution Zelda is going to take place and what its place in the timeline is.

He answered those questions in an interview I believe. I seem to remember hearing the same thing reading one.

The only thing Shiggy or Itawa said about Revolution's Zelda was that it was being made. They never said any details about it because frankly I do not think they have even really begun on the project considering Zelda: TP is not finished and released yet.

I think I've found some info on the revolution!!!

this new image that nintendo had registered for a patent puts an emphasis on the "v":

RevolutionLogo3.jpg

I remember Nintendo registering something with a "V" sometime ago.

It turns out that in December 2004 Nintendo did in fact register what they call "V Pocket". check out this picture with the same ephasis on the "V".

nintendovpocket.jpg

What do you guys think?

Could the revolution controller be the "V Pocket"

What are your thoughts?

V-Pocket... hmm...

Finally, Revolution made Matsuhara think of the term "Ubiquitous," referring to the shared goal with Nintendo of making games that that everyone can play anywhere. Matsuhara actually offers a vision of what he hopes will become of the system's controller. He wants a controller that people can take with them and connect to WiFi in order to keep playing their games.

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.
    • Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.
    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here are the anticipated specifications for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra based on previous leaks: 6.5-inch outer display and 8-inch inner display, 120Hz refresh rate, and 2,600 nits peak brightness Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, paired with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB of storage 4.1mm thickness when unfolded and a weight of 210g 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, 10MP or 12MP telephoto camera, 10MP cover camera, and 10MP selfie camera 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 As for the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the device is not expected to be a major departure from its predecessor, although it could become slightly slimmer. Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
