Nintendo Revolution

[JPB]

Miyamoto says:

In the future, what do you think video games will be like?
It's convenient to make games that are played on TVs. But I always wanted to have a custom-sized screen that wasn't the typical four-cornered cathode-ray-tube TV. I've always thought that games would eventually break free of the confines of a TV screen to fill an entire room. But I would rather not say anything more about that.

That's like taking films out of a TV and trying to put em into a 360 degree live action type setting. I think it'd be lame.

If they do that with southpark, count me there.

i cant find the video, but there was a tech demo at a conference where you would see a huge display screen, and on it would be a live feed of your room/desk, whatever you pointed it at. THEN on the screen, helcopters and trucks would appear as if they are in your room.

Anyhow, they said Nintendo was working on using this technology, so, however the hell it works, i think thats what he was hinting at...

Sounds like Guy Montag's video parlour to me. I'd better hide my books from the Firemen.
