It’s official. The Nintendo Revolution will be released by Thanksgiving 2006 in North America. Japan should see the system by Christmas. No word yet on Europe. Guess there goes that sumultaneous world wide launch. Since we’re getting it first, who cares?
The release timeframe was confirmed by both company president Satoru Iwata and Nintendo of America’s Reggie Fils-Aime.
Release in North America should absolutely see a price tag of less than $300 according to Fils-Aime.
Update: The official name of the Revolution has been released, called Wii (pronounced ‘we’). Go here for more info, although we can’t say it is much.

I have been informed on amazon.com the revolution will be for sale in march 2006 not thanksgiving i have discovered that is false!
P.S. you suck faggots
Revolution will be released in march 2006 according to Amazon.com
This site said “by” Thanksgiving, not “on” thanksgiving… dolt. But congrats, you do have a grade 1 reading level.
OK, it appears a few people are just a bit uptight about this whole release date situation. Please do yourself a favor and keep yourself occupied until it does come out (work out, read a book, go on a date–with a woman!!!). When the Revolution finally makes it to your home, remember that it is a toy and not the Second Coming.
it sure is the second coming!!! you better believe it!!!
The end is near… hold your horses while there are still horses left… you won’t have them forever you know
AAAAA, I do not know what to think! first I herd March… Well March is here and nothing, Went to Nintendo sites, then said June. So I’m sticking with the company! but it could be sold in Thanksgiving, Nintendo would be smart to put it out on Thanksgiving, because then everyone will go crazy when christmas comes and everyone will be buying NINTENDO REVOLUTION!
but i’m not going to buy the system, I have a gamecube AND GAME CUBE ROCKS! I don’t know why everyone is saying its dead, to me IT’S ALIVE
It is actually coming out on June 5, 2006
I believe that there are many speculated dates for the revolution’s much anticipated launch, some sites claim March, others claim not untill November. I am not saying any of the things you said were wrong I am just saying that The official date is immpossible to predict unless you have had clairvoyant visions you havn’t told us about.
Well, whilest all you Americans argue over the release date of the Revolution, I will sit here, in Britain, With my crappy 2 Meg connection and wait for ANY news of the Revolution release date in Europe! You should think yourselves lucky!
shut your hole brit-dick!!! USA stinks, but UK sucks !!!
I Am Just Wondering Where The Guy Got June 5, 2006…. That Is An Interesting Speculation. I HAve Also Heard May 27, 2006. But I Am Still Waiting For An Official Date To Be Announced. I Love My GameCube, And Can’t Wait To Get My Revolution.
dont diss on brits, they have feelings too. i for one, agree that june sounds about right, and the $300 and below means good news for us people whom are limited in our supplies of wealth…(i think thats like, 150 pounds?) any ways, have fun with that british release date…
oi who you calling a brit dick? i think you sir need to go outside and slap yourelf with a wet kipper and then come back and appologise.
you know that infra red styled controller its supposed to have, will it work with rear projection tvs? just wondering cheers
hahahahaa we beat you in the war faggot brit, noone likes you and you should die loser, faggot brit hahahahahahahahaha FAG
must we fight? I mean come on we are here to discuss about the Revoultion’s arrival, not about who sucks more thatn the other. I think the Revolution will be around thanksgiving. I want that so freaking much so they better hurry up and send it here already.
MUST these retarded americans bring the war into this when its supposed to be about the release of the Revolution? o.O
p.s – Not calling all u americans retarded, just the ones that choose to be assholes.
You know you can specifically address people in the comments :)
blah balh uk arse blah blah usa tit blah blah….Pathetic!
I would just like to add that I am too very much looking forward to the Revolution and will prob have to import one from America if they get there first :o)
I very much like and was thinking of getting the black one, but now I think the white one would be very sexy!
Yes, a very imature act by those uk arse’s and those usa tits, you should be ashamed………USA SUCKS
woao people…take it outside, not in front of a revolution discussion! the revolution, she will cry! yes well a dude at school saw a tv spot that is still to be confirmed that it is coming out in may. Also, they will call it the Nintendo GO which I find a despicable name for the upcoming console. The revolution will always be the revolution in my heart so I will defy nintendo and call it Revolution
PS : VIVA LA REVOLUTION!!!!
All I know about the revolution is that it’s going to cost between $200 and $300 so I’m gussing about $250
While usa and uk fights about release dates and war…dont you guys feel bad for Mexico and them countries? I mean they probably arent getting jack shit…and if they do…its gonna be in a language they wont understand :P Hehehehee.
here’s a smart idea wait until they annouce at E3 in May
all i know is i have xbox 360 and if it were a woman i owuld make love to it all night long and nintendo SUCKS so it could join the party too and u know hwat? its hard to get a hard on in CANADA!
its so damn cold u kno what im saying of course yo dont u brits and americans no wonder u cant win the war cuz u guys just can get along get a life make love stop bitching about stupid shit and the revoulution or GO or w.e. it is
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SNOW AND MOOSE AND QUEBEC IN CANADA AND mOUNTIES!!!!!!!!
I hear Canadians F*ck their own mom and sisters :P
“hahahahaa we beat you in the war faggot brit, noone likes you and you should die loser, faggot brit hahahahahahahahaha FAG ”
words of a true moron.
if you all wanna bash someone, bash someone worth bashing.
like people that blow themselves up in hopes of having some 70 virgins.
anyways, i’ve never seen such low iqs amoung americans as i do here – well, cept those in oklahoma that drive – but they are only a little more stupid then you bashers here.
The thing that I find most entertaining about all this is that Americans blame Pres. Bush for making foreign countries hate us, and then they go and start needlessly insulting people from other countries on the internet. If anything is going to make people hate the USA, that will.
Anyway, perhaps you get some element of pleasure from insulting others, but do yourself a favor and try and apply some actual intellect in doing so. That way you won’t come across as such a fool. The only thing name calling proves is that the offender doesn’t have the education to say something that actually means something.
Let me guess, you’re already thinking about what names to call me aren’t you?
revolution, this is going to be the best console the world has ever seen! how many consoles have ever been backdatabale to the very first console that has been made? and for no extra cos
this is a step forward for all true gamers!
Canadians are cool. well at least compaired to you americans anyway =]
Not only will the Revolution offer nostalgic favorites on a new system, but they are developing a completely new gameplay style (actually, several styles, from what I’ve heard are in the works). The XBox360 and PS3 are all well and good, but the Revolution verges on being a new type of product (and I always root for the company spurring new development in its industry).
As a side note, I hope the non-Americans on this forum don’t actually take the comments on this board as “American” mentality. The 12 year olds who posted them obviously have some growing up to do.
The codename Nintendo Revolution will be released on May 9, 2006.
It will be unveiled on the 9th, not released. Nintendo will show off a fully functional model on this date just prior to E3, but it will not be available for purchase until later.
I would just like to say that the anti-american and anti-british views expressed above do not (in any way, shape or form) follow the views of most Americans. We appreciate whatever help the Brits can give us, and greatly appreciate who may be our biggest ally today. Please note that by their poor grammar and spelling skills that they probably have not progressed past the third grade and their position should not even be considered.
Revolutions gonna be good for Super Smash Bros. other than that its no better than 360 or PS3.
Being British and having an American girlfriend, I must say that not all americans have this view of course, seeing as the USA is really like 50 countries rolled into one
However to that guy who said the brits were faggots……
riiiiight
I would love to see him lost with no money in the east end of london in the middle of the night
or perhaps faced with a team of angry crack SAS soldiers
still faggots?
P.S.
Bush sucks
Britain Rocks
I want to live in canada
It comes out either in late may or early june! you guys r a bunch of shit heads.
eebabbampf
got one word for the dick head from the US (VIETNAM)
To the yank who brought the war into this:
You did jack-shit. Russia won it.
End of.
To number 42, I think the guy who brought war up was talking about the revolutionary war of american colonists against the british. which was why he said we beat you in that war. You are thinking of world war II, and that doesnt make any sense either because the british and americans were allies in that war.
Anyways, all that war crap was ridiculous anyways. I can honestly say I am shocked to hear Americans saying such detrimental things about their own country. Where is your pride? I lived in mexico for 2 years (love the food) and have come to realize how great of a thing we do have going in the USA. In mexico, their last president stole a ton of gold, money and national wealth and skipped the country before anybody found him out. has that ever happened here?
“USA Sucks?” how would you know, have you lived anywhere else? did someone pick up your trash from the curb this morning? did your mom get a free welfare check from the government to pay for your sorry ass sit on the net all day and make posts on forums? sure there are problems that need to be fixed but i guarantee you wouldn’t like it anywhere else…. except maybe canada :)
good point cbutters
OK, so back to the whole “release of the Revolution.” If I am not mistaken, the Nintendo Revolution is being unveiled on May 9th at E3, but I don’t know if it will actually be available for purchase before Thanksgiving
lol i think you guys tht arnt from america are all jellous… lol cause america is the richest country in the world and has the best army in the world… and best technology and best doctors and best everything :) why do you think everyone is trying to escape their country like cuba and mexico and crap and come to ours illegally..
cause its the best ! :D anyways nintendo is retarded if they are thinking about releasing it in november because they messed up hella with gamecube and PS3 and the new halo are being released in novembor too so there would be hella compitition…
first, this article was either written by a 6 year old or someoner whom English was their second language.
note to the author-there is a difference between the words “on” and “before”
Nintendo claims there will be a working model of the Nin. Rev. at E3, so it will probably hit the market either in June or July. the sooner they get it out the sooner they can start earning money off of it.
Nintendo rocks!!! The USA is the greatest nation on earth!!!!
Britain and Canada can fight for second place.
LOL yeah have britain and canada fight for second place
:-D
how do you do smiley faces god damnit
