Nintendo News | Revolution Gets Nicked

By Jorge Ba-oh 24.04.2006 15

Hollywood Reporter has confirmed that Nintendo's upcoming home console, codenamed Revolution, will feature some special guests during its launch later this year.

The quirky and extremely popular shows Avatar: The Last Airbender and SpongeBob Squarepants are said to make their Revolution debut as part of founding company Nickelodeon's aim to be number one for children.

"We have a fundamental point of view that we are No. 1 with kids, we seek to be everywhere that kids are, and we seek to be leaders in that space. It's hard to say you're everywhere kids are if you're not on the new Nintendo product."

Steve Youngwood, Nickelodeon MTV Networks Kids and Family.

Further details on these two fabulous titles will be disclosed at this year's E3 in just over a fortnight's time. Be excited, be very excited.

The Last Avitar is pretty new. They could make a good game from it if they wanted to. Its not to bad a show. But I think itll be a corny kinda thing.

We can only hope they dont make a game from every Nicktoon.

yea, but you still have to provide for different audiences. I'm sure kids games bring in a lot of money, and I know a lot of kids like Spongebob so... yea Smilie

Yep, I agree - the games usually end up on PS/Xbox as well, so not just Nintendo systems.

I think Spongebob's even going a bit adult with some insane grown-ups liking it an all.

Well, definitely confirms our news about Spongebob Revolution from a couple of days ago!

And shows mainstream appeal, not just niche games will be coming...

Oh it's not too bad. We can ignore them if they're crap, if the decent games flow then I'm happy. Smilie

I like Spongebob and I'm 15. My uncle like spongebob, and he's 20 something and in the Navy Smilie

But that's because spongebob is more awesome than people give it credit for. It's clever, not kiddy a lot of the time.

Anyways...yeah for Nintendo!

Any addition is a good addition for me. As for the whole 'kids' image thing, all Nintendo needs are decent software support that taps into revmote. I don't think the traditional view of what makes a game "mature" would be as significant this gen.
