Stocka Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 So Wii is finally here in just over a week and i've been reflecting back over the road here, this should back some great/hilarious/awful memories for you all [these are not in order]
Jasper Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Some great memories and a nice collection of images. Revolution had a nice day. Now Wii's in charge. Twelve days to go and we're getting our final flashback before jumping to the future.
Jackster Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Man, I can't believe how long we've been waiting. Definately gonna be worth it though.
Nintendork Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 4cr Revolution mock ups. My favourite bit was the stand is a power supply week. Other highlights include "OMG ITS POWERED BY ORANGE JUICE" and general hologram related theories. This thread needs a 56k tag please.
Zell Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 I remember when everyone thought the controllers had touch screens. And virtual reality. Sounds stupid now but we believed it then.
LazyBoy Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Ha no may favourite bit was when everyone one thought holygraphic 3D COULD happen - you know who you are.
Nintendork Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Shout out to BigTac.. where-ever he/she may be
demonmike04 Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 This was the IGN mock-up before the console was revealed, im sure they were shown it before E3 2005, they must have, that mock-up is exactly correct. The silver bit for the stand, the self-loading disc line, the buttons, all they missed out was the flap.
Cube Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 http://img20.photobucket.com/albums/v61/zach2387/Nintendo_Nexus.jpg Ahh...I remember that Dolphin mock-up...
Stocka Posted November 27, 2006 Author Posted November 27, 2006 Ha no may favourite bit was when everyone one thought holygraphic 3D COULD happen - you know who you are. Indeed
raven_blade2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Ahh the memories. From Revolution to Wii.. the future of gaming is almost here in Europe.
Fierce_LiNk Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Ahh, the ups and the downs. The "VISOR!" talk to the revelation of the controller. It's been a rollercoaster, but one that is definitely worth riding. This is what being on a forum is all about.
Guest Stefkov Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 I remember most of those pics. The good old days. I remember that round one showed up in NOM ages ago. that one it was. Some pictures there .....its been ages since i saw them.
nekunando Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 ..and just think of how much impact Reggie has made since we were introduced to him.. what a top lad.. ..and I always kinda thought the 'Game Over' thing was cool..
Cube Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 And the Nintendo On thing was a massive "success" in terms of how fakes do, that video that was made was ace.
Haden Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Thanks for this thread Stocka you just brought back so many memories!
ShadowV7 Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Ah this really does bring back all the memories of the Revolution/Wii.I remember that Nintendo ON so well,it was good untill we say Mario and Samus. I remember we were trying to find what made the Revolution a Revolution. Great thread Stocka.
flameboy Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 does anyone know if that fake movie is still up on the net? EDIT here it is on yootube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kJRhQ1WOb4g
ViPeR Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Still holding out for stereoscopic 3D? . Man thank fuck it wasn't called Nintendo GO after all.
nekunando Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Still holding out for stereoscopic 3D? . Man thank fuck it wasn't called Nintendo GO after all. yeh.. ..and Nintendo Revolution just sounds so.. wrong now..
Cube Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 Yea..Revolution is just so...long. Names should be short.
flameboy Posted November 27, 2006 Posted November 27, 2006 yeah i never did like revolution it was too much of a prototype name...wii is far more memorable. it surely has to go down as one of the oddest console names though?
