It's starting to become a habit. The unveiling of pieces of upcoming hardware keeps finding its way to our tips
section just as we wrap up a hard day's work. This time around we get a tantalizing pointer from Cybigamerz. It looks
like the next issue of Nintendo Power has an E3 teaser, with Mario unveiling…something. The letters "LIN" and a
blue/purple (Dolphin colored?) plastic thing peek out. It could just be a peek at the next Zelda, but it may also be
the first glimpse of the next Nintendo console.
Anybody seen the issue yet?
First peek at Nintendo Revolution?

The "purple thing" is Link's shield. The words "all grown" and "legend of zelda" are pretty clearly visible at the bottom.
Nothing to see here.

I agree. Its is clearly a Legend of Zelda teaser. Do you think they would reveal the 'revolutionary' features just like that? Although this was a dud I did enjoy the thrill of it possibly being a revolution preveiw. Nintendo fans are starved for info.

let the speculation begin!
clearly it says "LINUX UNDER THE HOOD" meaning that anyone will be able to run anything on it

It says "Link Unleashed" and the following line reads "all grown up"
Also the image is obviously the underside of Link's shield from already released official art.

the bottom of the cover shows what looks like an updated N64 controller.
maybe it says "Linux vs unix", or "Link mis-understood"

Dear God, Joystiq!
Do you even own a GameCube? You are really stupid, and plain biased. "Hmmmmm, LIN, mmm, wonder what that could be? Yeah, let's make a post out of it."

shouldn't this be added to the revolution atom? oh wait there isn't one. mofos. i'm not comming to this site anymore.

Your comments: Trotter, that's a bit rough, isn't it? "Really Stupid?" Ease back on the throttle, man!
Looks like 'Link' is the first word, and the second word could easily be 'unleashed' - the sharp lower-right corner of the letter hidden by Mario could be a 'U,' consistant with the font they use. Just to the type-nerd in me speculating.
Also appears like it says something like 'He's all grown-up and...' under that headline.

Hmm, would it be wise of them to start showing "revolution Link/Zelda" at the same time that they are trying to market the new Zelda game for GameCube?
Posted: Dec 18th 2005 8:45PM (Unverified) said
I was just comparing letter sizes and the only thing it could possibly say is "LINE UP UNVEILED"
;)

If it were me, it would say LINK UNCHAINED. I mean, right?
