Nintendo Revolution Rumor Control


Nintendo Revolution

The folks at GameSpot tackle all the steamy Nintendo Revolution Rumors, crushing many dreams along the way. Just about every Nintendo Revolution rumor floating around is bogus. Nintendo has no comment.

Rumor # 1 - A patent (Patent 6,908,388) for the Revolution's gyroscopic, LCD-touch-screen-enabled controller has been uncovered. Started at Games Radar

"The controller for Nintendo's upcoming Revolution console will feature gyroscopic, tilt-sensitive technology, an LCD touch screen, and a greatly reduced number of face buttons, according to documentation on the US patent website," read the Games Radar initial story.

Bad News : The drawings filed with the patent clearly show a pre-SP GBA, hooked up to a GameCube.

The Good News : Patent 6,908,388 could show some technology that might appear in the Revolution's controller.


Rumor # 2 : Pictures of the Nintendo Revolution controller have been leaked.

"It's totally fake," said GameSpot Tokyo correspondent Hirohiko Niizumi. "Whoever doctored it up apparently didn't have much understanding of Japanese."


Rumor # 3 : A leaked teaser poster for the Nintendo Revolution reveals it will launch in March 2006. This is the only rumor that GameSpot leaves open. Like the date is oh so important, ok maybe it is. In the words of Game Spot : We'll see in the coming months.
