Though Satoru Iwata failed to use any name other than "Revolution" in his recent GDC keynote, it's now been officially confirmed that Nintendo's next-generation console will be given a new and presumably improved label sometime before its glorious release. In an interview with IGN, Nintendo's PR master, Beth Llewelyn, quite bluntly states that the name we've come to know and love (and plaster all across our website) will be adorned with cement shoes and sent to the bottom of a lake:
IGN: Is Revolution the final name of your new system?
Beth: No, it's not.
IGN: So it's definitely a codename?
Beth: It's a codename.
IGN: And it's going to change?
Beth: It is going to change.
Goodbye
Revolution, hello...Nintendo Go? When queried about the recent and supposed leaks regarding the latter
name, Beth claims that she has no idea what that is. "I have no idea what that is. I haven't been on the
Internet yet today, but I have no idea what that is." Sounds like a marketing non-denial to me.
