Reginator Reveals Lots Of Info - Gamecube, DS, Wii

IGN - and a few other lucky sites - got a neat speech from Reggie himself. Some of the points raised included:


-- A definite possibility of web browser and chat function for the DS

-- A definite possibility of third party classic downloads for the Revolution

-- A big ad campaign for Wi-Fi Connection in the US.

-- News of 2 million sales for Nintendogs worldwide (out of 8 million systems). That's 24%!

-- The Revolution is on track for a 2006 release, and will be much more affordable than the other systems.

-- They want every owner of Mario Kart DS to try online play once - they're convinced they'd be hooked.

A line was repeated throughout, which stated that Nintendo wanted to disrupt the industry, and make people take note. Nintendogs did that, apparently. There was also a sly jab at how Sony was caught by surprise with the success of MP3 players like the iPod, while they were still working on a new CD-playing Walkman. That's what they want to do.
