Downloadable games on Nintendo Revolution
Posted: Fri Mar 24, 2006 2:19 pm
I'm not sure how much people here are following, or indeed interested in the Nintendo 'Revolution' but one aspect of the console that really interests me is the downloadable back-catalogue of 20 years of Nintendo titles. One strong rumor that has been floating about the interweb and magazines is that Sega may team up with Nintendo and include their titles in the service too.
Well I've just been reading up on the Games Developers Conference that took place recently and indeed Sega has confimed that they will be offering more than 1000 Genesis / MegaDrive titles for download. But here comes the interesting part - Nintendo have also been in talks with Hudson who, as the more observant / technically minded people may know, jointly developed the TurboGrafx console with NEC. Hudson have now also jumped on board with offering titles for the download service on the Revolution, so maybe, just maybe, we could see Theron's Quest appearing on there...
