Yer according to an interview with "Toyota" Ken Toyota, Nintendo Japans PR man,
"E3 will be the starting point for the Revolution. [We haven't decided] whether we will show the real machine, videos, or unveil the concept. ... We want to receive some level of evaluation, but releasing too much information is also another issue. We don't have the slightest intention of making a machine that follows the same path as conventional game hardware. Right now, we are thinking of how we can accurately convey to people at E3 the different path that the Revolution will take and how it will change the way that games will be enjoyed."
With PS3 and Xbox 2 confirmed playable, it would be an idiotic move by Nintendo not to have some sort of hands on demonstration of the Revolution. If the reason that they keep everything movie form is because they don't have any actual playable games, then Nintendo are in trouble. With Revolution's Launch pencilled in (by us) for 12 - 18 months time, no playable software, indeed no playable hardware is a worrying sign.
If 3rd parties don't get a chance to get to grips with Revolution soon, the launch will be another 3 game Nintendo only affair, and up against stiff competition from Sony and Microsoft (despite what Nintendo like to think), their own Revolutionary games won't be enough to carry the console.

Struggling for quality software from the word go?
Dreamcast
Dreamcast
No sign of it at E3 will obliterate the companys share of the home console market.
Fact.
Fact.
Mabye they'll bring it all out at the last minute and steal the show?
Fact indeed.
Someone needs to pull their finger out.
Also, Zelda better be playable as well.
Or people will not be happy.
Put the 2 together, and everyone will hate Ninty with a burning passion very much so, or love them more than words can describe.

If it really is as revolutionary as the name suggests, they should do it last.
"XB2, yup yup - faster, better, etc..."
"PS3 yup yup - ditto, ditto, etc ..."
"Revolution ... bloody hell! Amazing! What were the other two again?"
Possibly

Although Xbox 2 might steal a lot being the first and online.
Providing the controllers on all three are decent I'll get them all. Unless I see 20 broken PS3's on ebay in which case I'll 'own' it like I 'own' the PS2.
