New Nintendo Revolution pic!

Nintendo Revolution

According to our informant, this image represents "a component of the Revolution's interface". Nope, not the revolutionary controller, but some other unknown device… thoughts? And by the way, the source for this image is a person that is "very reliable, and is connected to DigiPen and Nintendo"—if that's worth anything to you.

looks like a chair...or a catscan [sp?] machine 0_o

There is no question that this image is a CG render. It's not a photo - so whatever it is, if it is indeed real, this is a render of that design, and not a photo of a physical object. As we die-hard Nintendo fans continue to speculate as to the functionality of the Revolution, it's easy to believe in images or statements from people who are 'close to Nintendo.' And as much as I'd like to believe in some of these concept designs, the truth is we're probably not going to know too much until Nintendo decides to unveil something. So as for this image, I think it's just another render that really doesn't have any meaning. But let's keep speculating! It's fun!

It's a mailbox!

Revolution is a skee ball game?

its a nintendo bed pan

Its a tongue attachment, so you can taste things in the game.

It's a holographic display and interface.

Oh sweet, Nintendo's making their very own Roomba!

This is not a fake.

I've seen this device before, and I can assure you that it's genuine. Is it a controller? Is it related to gyroscopic technology?

Is it related to 3D touch???

In Novint, you will find the answer.

a blown up picture of the revolution WiFi adapter?

its clearly a seat with a band that goes around your waist, like a roller coaster chair!

Mmmm, DVD adapter that's to go on the inside? Maybe a WiFi connector to connect with the DS?

It's the FARGATE! Goes far, get it? It has nothing to do with that movie or the syndicated series based on the movie. WE WILL NOT BE SUED!

thats the thingy that you stick yo penis in, then it explodes

omg omg omg what is it?

It looks like a vacume cleaner.

WHATEVER IT IS, WE ALL KNOW IT'S INFERIOR TO ANYTHING ELSE NEXT-GEN.

It has to be teh usb 2.0 attachment for people with out wireless router

thanks for that thriftstore, that was very intellegent. And the caps sure got your point across.... moron.

"Oh sweet, Nintendo's making their very own Roomba!"

Arguably, Nintendo made the very first Roomba - the Chiritori was a remote-controlled vacuum cleaner that was recently featured in the Warioware games.

And does attending Digipen make you a pro on Nintendo's corporate going-on now? Damn - next time I whip together a render with a glowing-blue something on it, I'm going to flash my credentials as a founding member of the Nintendo Super Fun Club. I've got the Nintendo Power pin to prove it!

ITS A TANNING BOOTH

You are all wrong, it is meant to be held thhe other way, so the logo is upside-down to everyone except the user. The device is called a Nin-Taco.

It's a device for hologram projections.

If you look closely you can spot some imperfections (the gaps on the left and right), so there's a good chance this is not a render. Perhaps it is a foam lap-board type thing for arcade-style controls? You could mount various controllers onto the out-of-frame area at the top.

I don't see what it's supposed to be. When I see it, the only thing I can think of is Emperor Kuzco's Palace from The Emperor's new groove.

I think it may also be a chair. A joystick-chair that you control with your ass.

Maybe its a sub-woofer? lol

It's a hat used for tribal rituals.

The joker who photoshopped this has come forward and confessed. It is definitely fake. There is the original thread where this appeared at newgrounds.com.

Oh well, fun while it lasted.

Introducing the Nintendo Syban/Symbian... (at work, can't verify spelling) You know what I mean.... If you don't...

I still want my Nin-Taco.

It's not fake, jackasses. Read the damn post.

have you ever seen those battery recharging mouse pads that charge batteries jusy by resting on a surface? maybe this charges the rev's vr goggles.

Looks like Nintendo's finally moving into the medical supplies business. Question is, why would I want to get a catscan while I'm playing my Revolution?

This pic has nothing to do with Novint. Novint is not in bed with Nintendo. Get over it.

It's ROB 2.0 for use with Super Gyromite!

I love how even a mock up story can have the N haters out in force.

Ah the decication of fanboys.

Their loss I suppose.

It boggles the mind that you waste space on this crap.

It's a turntable and if you put load up Abbey Road by The Beatles and play it backwards at slow speed, it says "Paul is dead."

Its a I.D checker!

It's not a render!
Open it in photoshop and mess with the levels and you can see some interesting structures in the black area.
Weird....

This picture clearly shows the next generation in food. It is the Nintendo Taco.

Could be the controller recharger.

HMmmm @ 9 (ryan)

Novint.. interesting!! the new 3d controll/force feedback system.. but i dont see how the novint system will be compatible with old nintendo games?!?!! cant imagine mario working well with that at all....
for those in the dark about novint, check here
http://albuquerque.bizjournals.com/albuquerque/stories/2005/02/14/daily15.html

its possible Ryan, the release date looks promising for inclusion into nintendo... wonder if anyone could find out if Novint and Nintendo are dealing together.... hrmmm

No doubt, that has been photoshopped. The little black 'pockets' have the same shadow on them in each location. Plus look how dark the left side of the ring is to the right, that's to hide the shadow, which if you look VERY closely at nub in the lower left corner, its 'mirrored' and the other three left side pockets have been completely blackened out.

looks pretty good otherwise. kudos!

Yeah... this is fake. came from the Newgrounds forum, dude who made it already said it was fake.

for the lazy:
"Haha I fooled all you dumb bastards, lol.

HARDY HAR HAR!

Well, maybe not all of you.... but some of you.... come on -- you were fooled.

But it really isn't a 3D model. I actually used a real photo and just photoshopped the hell out of it, lol. Sorry if I actually got anyone worked up. Just a joke."
