The "Brain" Of The Revolution

Well not the brain like the ON, but the processor. Read the article here: IBM to Apple: eat these chips.

Toward the end it does confirm that the cell and power PC processors will power the next 3, and there is no way the Revolution will use the cell. So now it's confirmed it will use Power PC, and with the coming of new processors that are designed to have multiple cores and help save power, it only makes sense for Nintendo to use this technology in having a custom built Power PC processor built for them like the Gekko to power the Revolution.

ON Again

Well it seems that another Nintendo ON video clip has found its way to the internet once again. You can get it here:

Nintendo ON Again

Now personally I don't think this looks like the work of Pablo Belmonte, because he would do something longer, with more of a weird twist to it. Plus Pablo was only interested at showing off his skills and not spreading a rumor. The video seems to suggest that the Nintendo ON is an acessory for the Revolution? Do I think it's true? Nah it can't be true. Having an acessory like the Nintendo ON would be way too expensive. If it was a whole system, thats imagineable. But an acessory that can use DVDs and what not even? I still think it has some tie into Nintendo, perhaps the N-Game. I still think that there will be some sort of visor though with the system.
