Yes, many of us could buy this and never buy a single Revolution game (though there will be, of course, Zelda and Mario to purchase). But I think that these days the younger folk have no interest in playing games from 1996, let alone 1986. Of course, these are the same gamers who will want the other fancier consoles. So Nintendo will have to really bank on their innovation for this to catch on. My fingers are crossed.


One of the side benefits of this (that I think is underestimated), is that it could very well sell consoles. If it pushes consoles out the door, then it will most likely be easier for them to get more developers for the Revolution. More developers which means a bigger library, which could sell more consoles. Kind of like what Sony did with the PS1.
