Matt, love the site. I read somewhere that revolution is launcing in spring 2006 in japan! does that mean it will go toe to toe against ps3?

Matt responds: I saw that rumor floating around. It's not true. Someone mistakenly reported that Revolution would launch in Japan in the spring of 2006, based on Nintendo's recently released financial reports. However, if you read the financial reports, you'll see that Nintendo only stated Revolution would launch in 2006, period.[/quote[
 
The way Nintendo are pimping the Revolution the first time we hear it's launch date will be at a big event or at a Nintendo organised conference ala Seattle last September.

There's not likely to be any announcement this year - the focus will be entirely on the DS and Gamecube's Christmas power rather than distracting people with Revolution stuff. Nintendo, afterall, has to combat the 360 this Christmas and traditionally they don't have the best of luck with Christmas lineups.

I mean, Zelda's already vanished from it, The Cube only really has Pokemon XD in Europe for Xmas. Luckily they do have the DS with Nintendogs Best Friends, Animal Crossing DS and Mario Kart DS all out for Xmas.

There's no way they'd overshadow that with more news on the Revolution.
