I too, am eagerly waiting for Revolution. I left console gaming after Sega Saturn in favor of pc gaming. Last year I bought a GC for the family. Nintendo by far has many more family friendly titles. It's a shame the GC never took off.

Nintendo's philosophy on the current state of the industry is spot on, IMO. Cramming graphics chips into a box that supports HD when only like 25% of people with HD are actually using it is NOT innovation. Nintendo is keeping development costs down by not supporting HD, but is giving people tech they can actually use, with WiFi and USB support, as well as that controller that I'm DYING to get my hands on.

*edit* IMO the pc as a gaming platform is all but dead. The pc section at stores like EB and GameStop are almost non-existent.
