Revolution To Take On Live Arcade

[wraggster]

Nintendo's 'virtual console' Revolution download service received a significant boost yesterday, when company president Satoru Iwata announced a deal to bring a back-catologue of Mega Drive and TurboGrafx to the download service. But there's another Nintendo revelation: old classics wont be the only games available via the Revolution download service.
In a statement issued alongside Iwata's speech given at GDC, Nintendo said: "The new forms of innovative software that can be created by any size developer will be made available for download via Revolution's Virtual Console service." It seems, then, that in addition to the catalogue of classic games, unique downloadable games will be offered through 'virtual console' too.

Sound familiar? Of course it does, at it's akin to Microsoft's Xbox Live Arcade. The Xbox 360's game download service has been a big hit for Microsoft, with the likes of retro-shooter Geometry Wars receiving critical acclaim from all corners of the games industry.
No doubt we'll hear more from Nintendo on this particular feature of 'virtual console' at E3.

This is why I will choose this Consol at first, but let we hope that this service will be cheap enough for Polish incomes and support also the language

The Virtual Console will kicks Xbox Live Arcades butt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hopefully the PS3 wont try anything like this because it would get its butt kicked even worse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
