لووولAlong with the image, new details on the console were also revealed. As previously hinted, the unit will feature a front self-loading disc slot that will accept standard-sized DVDs as well as the smaller GameCube discs. Also verified, the Revolution will offer playback of DVD movies.
In terms of the raw power of the system, Nintendo purportedly made the modest estimate of the Revolution being approximately 2-3 times the performance of the GameCube. This is in contrast to the (possibly exaggerated) XBOX 360 (10-13 times the performance of the original XBOX) and the just unveiled PS3 (supposedly 35 times the performance of the PS2). Nintendo's Perrin Kaplan pointed out that "It's not all about having 'turbo power', it's about what you do with it."
The USA Today article also included the comments of one analyst, Richard Doherty of The Envisioneering Group, who listed one of the Revolution's chief advantages as a platform being that it will truly be considerably easier and cheaper for developers to work with compared to the competition. In Doherty's own words, this is because "They do not need to make major changes from the games they were designing, [as such] they have better performance without having to do a lot of extra work."
A bit more was also revealed regarding the Wi-Fi capability of the Revolution, specifically the shape its service will take when the unit is released. Gamers will apparently have access to a free online matching service, and furthermore the service will enable the download of Nintendo classics from previous systems, such as the original Donkey Kong, as well as new Nintendo games.
With more details just around the corner at Nintendo's Pre-E3 Press Conference, Kaplan was firm in stating "We've built Revolution around the concept of 'all-access gaming,' [regarding the unit's ease of adoption by both gamers and developers] ...We're about sticking to the soul of gaming."
