*RUMOR* Revolution to be Renamed?


revolutioncolors7iv.jpg

Further fueling the nextgen console war :boxing22: , John Houlihan of ComputerandVideogames reports that the Nintendo Revolution may not be what Nintendo's nextgen console will be named :bleh: , and adds that it could indeed be renamed this Thursday at the annual Game Developers Conference on this Thursday..........Plus, there is also rumours concerning the big N's next-generation machine June release ......to put pressure on Sony :chair: which has delayed the launch of PS3:@ .

The real name will be probably be confirmed this week at the show and tat could be as part of Nintendo president Saturo Iwata's keynote speech at the conference.... While there is no official confirmation, the rumor that Iwata will be announcing the final name of the now codenamed Revolution is selling like a hot pancakes:food3: .....

As quoted by insiders :cool2: ,
“Long-standing Nintendo watchers will know that each console the company produces labours under a codename during its development period, and so it’s assumed that Revolution won’t be the final name.â€

The other persistent rumour which has been doing the rounds is that Nintendo may launch the Rev as early as June :wow: .If that happens and Nintendo sells around one million units :clap: , Sony could have a harder time catching up :devil2: .

This promises to be a nail biting conclusion to this year's Game Developers Conference:right: !
Personally I would be saddened :( to see the name Revolution being removed,coz I think it is a strong name that makes a very bold statement. I don’t know what else Nintendo could come up with, that would make us all forget about that codename.

What do you guys think, keep the Revolution as the final, or do you have a better name in mind?
 
It is possible. The Gamecube was renamed several times too. I kinda like the revolution name when you consider Ninty's other consoles.

Rumours
Nintendo Wii to cost $ 199 and will be available by July
In order to take on Sony's Playstation 3 ,Nintendo will be launching it's next generation console Wii (Revolution) in July and tat to at a jaw drooping price of a $199,which is half of Xbox 360 and PS3.At that price pretty much every gamer who has owned a Nintendo system in the last two decades will be more than just a little interested in buying it.

There r lots of evidence to point to the fact tat Wii will be launched is July. First, Nintendo doesn’t have any major Gamecube game releases scheduled before November & Nintendo never said they would launch in November.Second, Nintendo is on its own schedule and doesn’t want to compete with the PS3 launch in November. Third, game developers like EA and Activision are shooting for their games to be ready in August/September and these games aren’t labeled “launch titlesâ€.
If this is true then god help Sony, to further combat the PS3 Nintendo will be releasing the ever popular Zelda for Wii by November.
