    And I thought the 4 player Tetris game for Xbox was extreme! <--Sarcasm.

    It looks like the PS3 will be region free which isn't a big thing for me since I don't import. That and the only over sea games I pay attention to are Final Fantasy releases which I'd actually wanna read so that I could enjoy them. People in Europe should love this news though.

    Some of the it does look awesome but I bet hardly any, if any of it, was in game graphics.

    The part I'm excited about is the fact that they've (pretty much) finished the console. And that its coming out probably around late (novemberish) 2006, so it should get to the US by spring 2007.

    Hmm, interesting theory, I don't buy it somehow.

    I'm not so sure that calling the revolution "wii" is the worst idea in the world. Let's look at it from Nintendo's perspective:

    The word "Revolution" sounds really damn cool in English, but it's damn near impossible to pronounce with a Japanese tongue. Twenty years ago they could simply call a console "Famicon" in one region and "NES" in another. Due to the prevalence of the internet this is no longer an option.

    Nintendo has to pick a word that sounds the same in all languages. How do you do that? Simple: make up a word.
