In a post on the Official Nintendo website, the company have tried to dismiss claims that they are loosing the next-gen console race to Microsoft and offered a sneak peak into some of the features of their next console, codenamed Revolution.Good news for Nintendo fans, as the article claims the Revolution will indeed be backwards compatible (a feature that team Microsoft have yet to claim)
Nintendo's legions of loyal fans will be happy to learn that Revolution will be backward compatible, playing both Nintendo GameCube 8cm disks along with its own 12cm optical disks in the same self-loading media drive.
They also boast that the Revolution will be their smallest console to date, the thickness of 3 DVD cases.In its final form, Revolution will be about the thickness of three standard DVD cases and only slightly longer. The versatile Revolution will play either horizontally or vertically, allowing the user total flexibility in setting up a gaming session wherever they have a television.
