Well, the following is what Nintendo of America said.
Hello and thank you for contacting Nintendo,
We appreciate learning how you feel about our next home console system and will
be sure to forward your e-mail on to the appropriate personnel for review.
Our competitors would have you believe that the next generation of gaming will
be solely defined by high definition graphics. High definition graphics look
fantastic, but come at a price. To shine, high definition games must be played
on high definition televisions, which aren't cheap. Games with high definition
graphics are expensive to develop because they must be developed in both
standard and high definition formats. Those development costs are passed on to
you in the form of more expensive software. Finally, playing games with high
definition graphics requires a system with loads of RAM and costly high-end
graphics chips, both of which make it prohibitively expensive for most
consumers.
Sharper graphics are certainly part of the next generation. We know that games
for the Revolution will look brilliant whether played on a standard television
or on a high definition television. However, is that all there is to
next-generation gaming? We feel that sharper graphics should be combined with a
new way to interface with the game itself. Our controller is a sharp departure
from the current standard, to be sure, but it will provide a level of
interactivity you can't get currently.
We believe in providing a single system that can play not only the previous
generation's titles, but also games from a massive library built over 20 years
of creating innovative and exciting games. We also believe in providing a
complete wireless online experience right out of the box.
Nintendo has created a gaming system that is sleek and compact in size, powers
up quickly with minimal load times, makes game development easy and fast, is
easy to use, and is affordable for everyone. We are confident that gamers and
non-gamers alike will support the truly next-generation experience only Nintendo
can provide. Once you have a chance to play games on the Revolution, we think
you'll agree!
Be sure to stay tuned to www.nintendo.com/revolution for the latest news on all
of our current and upcoming products.
Sincerely,
Nintendo of America Inc.
