    Electronic Gaming Monthly, a multiformat gaming magazine from America, has published rumours of Pilotwings being in development for Nintendo Revolution in its 'Rumour Mill' section. This would go along with the rumours of a SNES/N64 franchise being re-awoken for Revolution.

    In Pilotwings, you are put in the seat of various flying craft and, quite simply, fly about collecting points and fulfilling goals. It has been rumoured to be coming to the Revolution ever since the Tokyo Game Show 2005, where Nintendo demonstrated the Revolution controller for the first time behind doors using a demonstration of a flying plane that was controlled simply by moving the remote around in the air.

    Also appearing in the 'Rumour Mill' section was a note about Mario Paint possibly coming to the Nintendo DS and Revolution. We have a scan of the page below.

    If the TGS demo is anything to go by, youll move the plane entirely with the motion sensing, and possibly speed up/slow down with the buttons, or even pulling and pushing the controller forwards and backwards. At TGS you held the controller like a plane to do it and moved it about just like you would when playing with a toy plane, so I wouldnt be surprised to see the controller scheme surviving here.


    Thats how I was thinking they might do it! Very cool! I imagine even my young cousin could control it if the REVmote was treated like a toy airplane!

    This would rock! This would be the best game ever as they could use the controller really well on it.

    I'd imagine there's definitely some truth to these rumours, I missed out on Pilotwings 64, so this should be a quantum leap for me since the snes version.
    Looking forward to it.

    Indeed, it's been lingering since TGS. It's the first we've heard from a more 'proper' source though, somebody probably just added it to the Wiki article as soon as the TGS demo coverage came out.

    Hopefully E3 will shead some light on this. Both the SNES/N64 games we're excellent, though i prefer the original due to fond memories of the parachute level!

    This will be one of the best games to utilise the Revmotes features, and as I see it most likely a release title
