The problem is we know absolutley nothing about the Revolution. Nintendo are doing thier usual cloak and dagger, top secret, we're going to give you as little info as possible right until the last minute. The specs quoted are from reliable sources, but until we get the confirmation from Nintendo I'd take everything about the Rev as speculation. Even the Revolution console shown at E3 wasn't the final product, Iwata has said that it may change before it is launched, and could be smaller than the item shown.

If the Rev is less powerful than the 360 and PS3 and doesn't have the visual quality of these two, it doesn't really bother me. I find I buy Nintendo for the gameplay, the innovation, the fun, and the franchises that don't appear on other systems.
