Here's a snippet:
http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=7359Speaking briefly about Revolution, Iwata announced a number of hard details regarding the next-generation system for the first time - including the fact that the console will be backwards compatible with the GameCube, and will have WiFi online functionality built into the system.
The chips for the system are on schedule, he claimed, with ATI working on a custom graphics part codenamed "Hollywood" and IBM working on a chip called "Broadway" - the capitals of movie entertainment and stage entertainment respectively, he noted.
Your thoughts and expectations?

Well, I think they'll all match specs, these new consoles, heh =)
I read this friday last week. They also released a new trailer on the new zelda coming this year. Looks real nice, too.Atashi wa juu-yon-sai no onna no ko! Atashi no namae wa Miizuki. Yurushiku ne!
Nani? Atashi o shinjirimasen desu ka? Baka!

Need to download GoodN64 or instructions to use it? Need to check if it's a good or bad rom?

Can't wait 'til they release the game!
But I do wonder why they've put such overkill specs into the next-gen machines...
Hmmm... now I want to see E3 too. Never done that... never been there...

Heh, obviously I can't wait til they release it, but I'm guessing that won't be til the end of the year, start of '06. So I'd be content with some more info from E3!

Yeah, I'd love to go to E3 myself, shame I'd have to sell one of kidneys to afford the flight over there!

Got some more info on zelda! This is going to rock you... hehehehehe...
Anyway, url: http://www.gaming-media.com/rpg/zeldagc_preview.shtml
Oh and the game is scheduled for release quarter 4 of 2005. On dvdboxoffice, it's described as "October 18th," I think. On Nintendo, it's simply stated for release 2005.
Go figure. Now I bet you can't hold still and want to get the game immidietly.
Hmmm... I wonder if sony fans will be shocked or jealous now?Atashi wa juu-yon-sai no onna no ko! Atashi no namae wa Miizuki. Yurushiku ne!

Even if half the features mentioned there are implemented, this game is simply going to rock!All this information can be taken with a grain of salt, since it isn’t one hundred percent real yet. This information was given to us from many reliable sources but still it’s not official yet so keep that in mind
Mind you when has there ever been a bad zelda game!?

Errr... wind waker? Minish cap? OoT was a fine game, but overrated. Zelda MM. Among them. Maybe more... hmm... nah, I think that's all.
