Nintendo, as of late has not been a company that I have been all that pleased with. The Game Cube only had 2 or 3 exclusive titles that are worth buying, and right now it looks like the GB DS is fallowing in its foot steps. I was surprised to hear that Nintendo was even going to be able to make a new console, but it looks like Nintendo had to show one at E3, even if it was just a case. The only thing that may make it worth getting is this lofty statement.
So will this be all the titles, or just the official Nintendo ones? I guess that would be one way to combat the ROM games. If they make the download/subscription price reasonable, I may go for it. I can just see the commercials for it. Space Odyssey music, Donkey Kong, and the black Revolution...
The Game Boy Micro looks kind of cool, but how many times are they going to reinvent the same old product? Wasn't it last years E3 that they came out with a Zelda shield and sword and talked about the new Zelda game? I do not see a whole lot of content in what Nintendo showed, just like their game systems. Too bad.

It will be entirely possible to download a back catalog of NES, SNES and N64 games spanning some 20 years to the Revolution via the Wi-Fi connectivity. Details on how this is exactly going to be possible and any potential costs involved were not forthcoming
