"Our next home system won´t simply be new or include new technologies. Better technology is good, but not enough. Today´s consoles already offer fairly realistic expressions so simply beefing up the graphics will not let most of us see a difference. So what should a new machine do? Much more. An unprecedented gameplay experience. Something no other machine has delivered before." - Iwata
Because the Revolution is:
"It´s convenient to make games that are played on TVs. (...) I´ve always thought that games would eventually break free of the confines of a TV screen to fill an entire room." - Miyamoto
Easy to use and really amazing:
"I think maybe if I could do anything, I would make it so you don´t have to sit in front of a TV and play. If you could have a machine that you just plugged in and played inside a virtual world that - would be just great." -Miyamoto
Change your paradigms:
"Sitting in front of your monitor with a controller, there´s really nowhere to go from that paradigm, all you can do is make it prettier and faster." - Miyamoto
Expand your definition of Gaming:
"When you turn on Revolution and see the graphics, you will say ´wow!´" - Iwata
Because the Revolution is NEAR:
"Not just a portable, not just a console - it´s exactly what we wanted in that it´s the birth of a completely new platform." - Wada (Square Enix)
This is a Disrupter Development... and it´s coming:
"We disrupted the very definition of a game - and that is working, too. In a few weeks, you will better understand how to disrupt console gaming. You will play, and you will SEE." - Iwata
